Baseball again today. Our first game with the NY Yankees, a perennial good team that always seems to be able to win. They were also the better team today, winning 9-3.
At this stage of spring training, the "regular" players only play about 4-5 innings then non-roster players trying to make the team, rookies the team wants to take a look at before sending them to minor league training camp, and long-time minor league players who will be playing in the minor leagues this year, usually finish out the game. The quality of play is not always at the major league level and it showed today. It was a relatively sloppy game - base running gaffs, poor pitching, dropped pop-ups, and a general lack of timely hitting. The Yankee "scrubs" were better than the Phillies "scrubs" however, and they won easily.
We drove back to the RV after the game and ate a quiet dinner before going to bed. No baseball tomorrow - we will be staying "home", trying to get caught-up on paperwork and things that don't go away when we do.
