A bit south in Sarasota, the other half of the Yankees played to a 4-4 tie in ten innings with the Orioles. Jacoby Ellsbury had two hits and Starlin Castro had three hits, including a double. Aaron Hicks also had a hit. Bryan Mitchell finished his three-inning outing very strong. He allowed just one run on an Adam Jones solo homer. James Pazos was charged with three runs (none earned) in two-thirds of an inning thanks to some defensively sloppiness. Here’s the box score and video highlights for that game, and here’s the rest of the day’s notes from camp:
- Brett Gardner (wrist) took batting practice on the field again. He’ll soon face some real pitchers in live batting practice. CC Sabathia, Luis Severino, Michael Pineda, and Luis Cessa all threw their bullpen sessions as scheduled. [Chad Jennings]
- Beltran and Alex Rodriguez held an impromptu base-stealing crash course for Gardner, Mason Williams, and some others yesterday. Beltran and A-Rod can’t run anymore, but they’ve both been highly successful base-stealers in their careers, so they have plenty to teach. [Ken Davidoff]
- Masahiro Tanaka will make his second start of the spring in tomorrow’s home game against the Orioles. YES has picked up that game. Hooray for that. It wasn’t on the original broadcast schedule.
Here is your open thread for the night. Today’s home game against the Blue Jays will be replayed on YES at 7pm ET. The road game against the Orioles will be replayed on MLB Network at 6am ET tomorrow morning, for you early risers. MLB Network will air a different game on tape delay this evening. The Devils are the only local hockey or basketball team in action, though there’s a ton of college hoops on the schedule too. Have at it.
