Baseball season is finally back.
The Philadelphia Phillies kicked off their unofficial season, traveling to Lakeland, Florida to take on the Tigers. Jordan Zimmerman tossed the first pitch, and thus baseball returned.
The Phillies trailed for the majority of the game, as Nick Pivetta allowed three runs early. After a fairly noneventful game, scoring burst open in the eighth inning, where Philly scored six to the Tigers three, tying this game up late.
The late surge by Philadelphia could not be held, as Cristopher Sanchez and Addison Russ couldn’t keep guys off base.
