A Note for Today:
Jerome Williams and David Buchanan are scheduled to pitch this afternoon for the Phillies in their second contest against the Tigers this spring. Two days ago, Miguel Alfredo Gonzalez was roughed up early, and the Phils fell 6-0. Williams (5 IP, 3 Hits, 1 ER, 2 SO) and Buchanan (4 IP, 7 Hits, 2 ER, 1 SO) look to fair better than their counterpart. Maybe, the offense can score some runs in support, too.
Lineup: Revere, CF / Herrera, 2B / Brown, RF / Howard, 1B / Francoeur, DH / Asche, 3B / Galvis, SS / Blanco, 2B / Rupp, C
