5/7/21 : Minor League Roundup

Extended Spring Training ( XST ) has also begun. Phillies players and coaches in XST gather for practice at Carpenter Complex each day by 8 AM and run thru various drills and instruction. In addition they will begin intrasqaud scrimmages next Tuesday and play each day at 1 PM. In years past games were also scheduled against other teams, not sure that’s gonna happen this year. Still no fan admittance to Carpenter Complex ... I may get over to watch next week from beyond the fences though.

In tonight’s Affiliate action ...
