Spring training openers just 3 days, 20 hours away the first 3 games will be played on March 2, 2010. The teams playing each other are the Pirates vs. the Manatees at 12:05 pm, the Tigers vs. the Mocs at 1:05 pm, and the Braves vs. the Mets at 1:10 pm. It’s the start of something that a lot of people have been looking forward to.
As for the Phillies they will have to wait 5 days, 20 hours to have their first spring training game on March 4, 2010. They will be playing the defending 2009 World Series Champions the New York Yankees. For the Phillies this is the start of something that Ryan Howard calls "unfinished business". As for the Yankees it’s the start of trying to win another championship. "Winning is a great feeling and when you win it makes you wanna keep winning and never lose that feeling" said Yankees first baseman Mark Teixeira. For any team that's really what it’s all about. Phillies manager said this on February 23, 2010 "Were gonna win, were gonna win again because we have a good group of guys in this club house that wants and knows how to win. I'm looking forward to riding down broad street again and maybe even for the next 2-3 years. Let’s go get it". As you can see the Phillies are ready for the 2010 season to get underway just as much as the Yankees or any other team.
This is Beyond Spring Training, this is Beyond Baseball.
