PHILLIES NEWS

The Phils tied the Pirates 5-5 today in their last spring training game down in Florida. Ryan Howard and Pat Burrell both homered in the 5th inning to forge the tie, and by the 9th inning both teams were down to minor league pitchers so they called it a day. The Phils will now fly back home to Philly for their last two spring training games, and then they open the season at home on Monday, so get ready for what should be a great season.
