Spring Training Action Today - Yankees and Phillies

Well, I caught my first game in Florida today as I caught the New York Yankees versus the Philadelphia Phillies in Clearwater on a cool, blustery day.

New friends were made, and people were psyched for their heroes on the diamond as they prepare for the 2007 season.

Most of the Phillies regulars played today, while Yankee stars Derek Jeter, Hideki Mastui, Andy Pettitte, Carl Pavano, Jorge Posada & Jason Giambi saw action while Robinson Cano, Alex Rodriguez, and Johnny Damon did not come on the trip.

The Phillies won 3-2, and Andy Pettitte looked sharp and Jamie Moyer had a solid outing. Carl Pavano got hit hard by the Phillies and was victim of a huge error by third baseman Andy Phillips today.

In the end, it is only spring training; however, it was good to see the stars of today in Florida getting ready for action in April.
