<<Back to spring games main menu

Phillies Minor Leaguer's are into their exhibition schedule.  Please keep in mind that players shift around a lot during the spring and the team a particular player is playing with on these reports is not a concrete indication where he might start the season.

Brennan King led the IronPigs to victory by scoring two runs and driving in four more with a double and a homerun to finish 4-for-5. Casey Smith drove in three runs and scored two of his own on two hits, including a double. Jason Jaramillo scored twice and knocked in two runs with a double. T.J. Bohn, Mike Cervenak and Val Pascucci each picked up an RBI and Michael Spidale scored twice while finishing 1-for-4. Jason Kershner was a bright spot on the mound, needing just six pitches to get through the eighth inning.

Tim Gradoville picked up two RBI and finished 1-for-4 to help lead the R-Phils to their 10th win this spring. Juan Tejeda finished 1-for-4 with an RBI and Javon Moran drove in a run on one hit. Neil Sellers also contributed, scoring one run while going 1-for-4 and Jason Donald picked up yet another hit, finishing 1-for-4.
