Spring Training 2026 - Day 56

 It was a good baseball day.  The weather was in the 70's, not a lot of wind, and sunny.  

The game today featured top pitchers from the Phillies and the Detroit Tigers.   Both teams also had a lot of their primary players in the game, making it seem like a regular season game. It was also another sellout crowd of over 10,000 bringing a lot of energy to the stadium.  The Phillies went ahead early but Detroit tied the game, and it ended in a 4-4 tie.  Extra innings are not normally played in Spring Training, especially towards the end of the spring season.

Day 56 - Phillies v Tigers

We stopped at the store for a few things for dinner and I grilled hamburgers outside.  Kevin cooked beans and onion rings and we had a simple dinner that was very good.  I also cooked a pound of bacon outside for the trip home.


Two games to go.  Tomorrow is a special game with the Phillies top prospects playing the top prospects from Toronto.  No game on Sunday and the last game is on Monday.

All quiet in the park this evening, The wind has died down, there a nice sunset and all of us older folks here are settled down for the night as far as we can tell.
