Spring Training Game Preview
New York Yankees vs. Philadelphia Phillies
The Yankees are hoping to overcome the tension that came from the nasty rumor about ARod going to get traded. If they can overcome it then they have a huge shot at winning this ball game. Right now the batting order looks traditional.
- LF Johnny Damon
SS Derek Jeter
RF Bobby Abreu
3B Alex Rodriguez
DH Hideki Matsui
1B Jason Giambi
C Jorge Posada
2B Robinson Cano
CF Melky Cabrera
The Phillies is coming into the game strong. They have Howard back to 100% after his knee surgery at the end of the 2007 Season. Howard looks to be blasting more than what he was last year, and will be much of a greater use. Their batting order also looks deadly.
- SS J. Rollins
- CF S. Victorino
2B C. Utley
1B R. Howard
LF P. Burrell
RF G. Jenkins
3B G. Dobbs
C C. Ruiz
P K. Kendrick
In the pitching game Chien-Ming Wang will go up against the fast pitching Kyle Kendrick. These two men is going to do everything they can to impress on first day of training.
