Morgan sets tone as Phillies blank Yankees
3/13/16: Ryan Howard drives a double to right field, plating Maikel Franco and giving the Phillies the lead in the top of the 1st inning"It's always encouraging when you throw good," Morgan said. "But you can't get too high, you can't get too low. So right now, I'm just staying the course."
New York committed three errors behind Sabathia, including one by the veteran hurler himself, leading to three runs (two earned). Scheduled to throw three innings, Sabathia completed just 1 2/3, permitting five hits while throwing 29 of 49 pitches for strikes.
It was the second spring start for the former Cy Young Award winner, who is competing for the fifth spot in New York's rotation.
