Tigers fall short in loss to Phillies
03/13/2006
Tigers at the plate: Alexis Gomez plated the first Tigers run with a two-out double in the fourth inning, and he then scored on a Josh Phelps single.
Phillies at the plate: Chris Roberson completed a Phillies' comeback with a two-run double in the bottom of the eighth inning. Shane Victorino singled with no outs and went to third on a Pat Burrell double, setting up Roberson's hit. Ryan Howard, still the team's hottest hitter, clubbed his Grapefruit League-leading seventh homer.
Tigers on the mound: Top prospect Justin Verlander made his third appearance of the spring, allowing just one run on one hit (Howard's homer). He walked four and struck out three. The right-hander was selected second overall in the June 2004 First-Year Player Draft. Bobby Seay couldn't maintain the lead in a rough eighth inning.
Phillies on the mound: Ricardo Rodriguez started in place of Jon Lieber (who started in a "B" game) and allowed two runs on five hits in four innings, while walking none and striking out one. Reliever Geoff Geary tossed a scoreless inning.
Grapefruit League records: Tigers 7-5; Phillies 8-4.
Up next: Brett Myers heads to Fort Myers to face the Twins on Tuesday at 1:05 p.m. ET, opposite Boof Bonser. Myers has a 12.00 ERA this spring.
Kenny Rogers and top prospect Joel Zumaya are scheduled to pitch for the Tigers on Tuesday against the Indians at 1:05 p.m.
