On The Hill :
Chase Anderson went three shutout innings allowing two hits and two walks while striking out four batters. He threw 49 pitches - 28 for strikes. FB range today was 92-95 mph, he also featured a cutter, changeup and curve ball.
Anderson said in the zoom conference interview afterwards that he fully expected to compete for a job when he signed with the Phillies, takes nothing for granted. He was happy with today’s effort, said all his pitches worked well. Sometimes he gets a little quick in his delivery while in the stretch, felt that happened a bit today but will continue to work on that. An overall productive day.
Archie Bradley ( FB 92-94 ) yielded a run on two hits in the fourth inning.
Hector Neris ( FB 93-94 ) tossed a perfect fifth inning ending the frame with a strikeout.
Jose Alvarado ( FB 96-98 ) allowed a walk and a single in a scoreless sixth inning.
Hector Rondon ( FB 93-94 ) struggled throwing strikes issuing two walks to begin the inning. Giancarlo Stanton hit a two run single against him before the skipper came for the baseball. 2/3 IP, 3 R, 1 H, 2 BB.
Zach Warren ( FB 92-94 ) made his 2021 debut and was tagged for an RBI single by Rob Brantley allowing an inherited run to score. He struck out the next batter looking on a 3-2 FB to end the inning.
Christopher Sanchez ( FB 91-94 ) was erratic with his command in the 8th inning but still tossed a scoreless frame with two strikeouts featuring a hard breaking slider as his K pitch. The Yankees posted two hits against him as Christopher threw 21 pitches - 14 strikes.
