Position Players
The offense was paced by Zack Collins and Yoan Moncada this afternoon, who both his 2-run home runs in the winning effort. Elsewhere in the lineup, Tim Anderson, Adam Eaton, Jose Abreu, and Andrew Vaughn each added a hit, while Luis Robert was 0-for-4 on the day.
Collins has looked great this Spring, and considering he is likely the Opening Day DH, it will be great for Collins to get a shot at regular ABs to start the season.
Pitchers
Carlos Rodon added another excellent start to his Spring, lowering his Spring ERA to 1.32 in the process. He struck out six hitters in 4.2 innings while walking just one. After him, Liam Hendriks, Garrett Crochet, and Matt Foster threw scoreless outings, and Tayron Guerrero sat down the last two hitters to end the game – but not before he made it a bit interesting.
