Spring Training Pt 1

If the first 1/3 of the Spring Training Schedule is any indication, this is going to be the longest season of my life. After 8 games of practice ball, the Boston Generals are 1-7. Besides the 1 win, only 1 game was a 1 run loss and only 1 game was a 4 run loss the others were worse.

In the 7 losses the Generals have been outscored 65-18. We have given up 11 runs twice and 12 runs twice.

So far Doug Randolf has been one of the few decent players this spring training. Through 2 starts he has allowed 8 hits in 9 innings and has a 4.00 ERA.

Bill Davis has allowed 6 hits in 6 innings and has a 4.50 ERA.

Lorenzo Zambrano has allowed 1 hit in 3 innings of work and has not yet allowed a run.

Among the many on the bad side is Joaquin Alonso who has allowed 11 runs in 3.2 innings. (22.09 ERA).

2B Frank McDonald has hit .429 with 2 HR and 4 RBI.

C Pedro Castro is hitting .333 with 2 RBI.

CF Bart Evans is hitting .357 with 3 RBI.

The other problem is this team is HORRIBLE at fielding. The Generals have 10 errors in the 8 games.

Let's hope these next 8 games go better!
