Chase Anderson threw three, shutout innings allowing one hit and striking out three.  New guy, Tyler Alexander, learned that Triple-A is a lot tougher than the Indy-ball Frontier League.  He lasted 2.1 innings and gave up 4 runs on 6 hits.  Jeff Singer stranded an inherited runner and pitched an inning, allowing one run on 2 walks and a hit batter.  Ramon Rosso allowed one of two inherited runners to score.  He pitched 0.2 innings and walked one batter.  Jake Hernandez struck out two in one inning of work.

  1. Brito and Ortiz continue to hit plus Stokes has had quite a nice run to get his average up to 268. He can play multiple positions too. Are Lozano and Armento two more arms to dream on? Hammer earning another shot in the big leagues.

  2. Where Lin Hsin-Chieh’s strikeouts gotten with his forkball? Anyone know?

  3. “were” not “where”. I’d like to say “its the hour” but really it is the “inattentiveness”

  4. Erunbiel Armenta pitched again last night for Clearwater low A. He closed the game, Erubiel Armenta picked up the win with two, scoreless, one-hit innings.  He walked one and struck out five of the six batters. He now has 17 strikeouts in 6 2/3 innings. 17 out of the 20 outs.

      1. He is someone to watch for sure. I sent his bio to one of my sons with his place of birth California and date of birth 2000.
        He sends it back to me with Santa Domingo, Dominican Republic 1996. Hope he isn’t right on that. Lol.

        Phillies need to get lucky sometime.

            1. Thanks. He really looks like a pitcher not just a thrower. Had movement and location. I’m a impressed a I could be through a video.
