The Braves fell way behind early thanks to an anemic offense and the Tigers offense taking advantage of the fact that there is no mercy rule even in spring training as Detroit beat up the Braves in a getaway spring game by the score of 10-3.
Folty got beat up badly in the second as he struggled to keep batters from hunting his fastball early in the count. The Tigers got the scoring started in the bottom of the second inning. The Tigers sort of BABIPed Folty to death to start with singles from the first three batters in the inning.
