Spring Training Game Thread 3/2: Phillies at Rays

The Phillies take on Tampa as we open the weekend.

MLB: Spring Training-Philadelphia Phillies at Toronto Blue Jays Butch Dill-USA TODAY Sports

Why do the Florida-based Rays bother going somewhere else for spring training (Port Charlotte)? Why do they let the Yankees go to Tampa? Doesn’t that make it seem like the Yankees are saying another big league team’s regular season home is only good enough to be used as their training camp? I mean, that’s not a bad point, but it’s always seemed like such a savage burn.

Anyway, Phillies. Rays. 1:05 p.m. Happy Saturday.
