A.J. Cole gave up six hits, a walk and four runs (three of them earned) in three innings when he faced the Miami Marlins in Jupiter, FL’s Roger Dean Stadium last week.
It was second start of the Spring, after Cole allowed four hits, a walk and four earned runs in his first outing of 2017 against the Minnesota Twins on the road in Fort Myers.
Today, in The Ballpark of the Palm Beaches in West Palm Beach, the 25-year-old right-hander held the Washington Nationals’ NL East rivals off the board through four hitless innings of work in a solid effort on the mound in what ended up a 2-2 tie.
