As it was raining all across the greater Tampa Bay area the game was delayed past it’s original 1:05 p.m. start. They would start the game once it let up a little, however, it was still coming down hard enough to show in the first inning. Brett Oberholtzer was on the mound for the Phillies and he’d face what was mostly the Yankees’ minor league lineup aside from Brian McCann and Aaron Hicks. Dustin Ackley and Carlos Corporan (who’s still competing with Austin Romine for the backup catching spot) were also in the lineup today.
