David Fry - Cleveland Guardians (2)*

Micah Pries (1B): 1-3 - Pries worked a single off of tough lefty reliever and former Cleveland Rule 5 pick, Hoby Milner.

Davis Sharpe (RP): 0.2IP, K - We’ve seen Sharpe a few times this spring on the traveling extras roster and he’s been solid. They are clearly interested in seeing what he can do.

Others prospects of note

Mason Hickman (RP): 0.2IP, 2H, 3ER, 3BB, K - It was not Mason Hickman’s day unfortunately. Though his lone strikeout did come against big time Brewers prospect Joey Wiemer.

Jose Tena (PH-DH): 0-0, BB - A walk in his lone at bat is not what you might expect to see from Tena.

Juan Brito (2B): 0-1 - Brito actually made an out.

Korey Holland (LF): 0-1 - First action Holland has seen in a big league camp game this spring and he struck out.

Jorge Burgos (RF): 0-1 - First we’ve seen Burgos in a big league game this spring as well.

Isaiah Greene (CF): 0-2, K - Greene got two at bats while playing center but struck out in one of them in his first big league look this spring.

Brayan Rocchio (SS): 0-3

Yordys Valdes (SS): 0-1

Bryan Lavastida (C): 0-1 -Nobody seems to be running away with this backup catcher gig. Interesting Naylor was optioned to Triple-A while Lavastida is still up, but Naylor is also out for a week or so with WBC action.

Angel Martinez (3B): 0-2, K - Martinez was part of a young interesting infield lineup between he, Rocchio, Freeman and Pries but he had a tough day vs. Brandon Woodruff. But, then again, so did everyone else besides Will Brennan.
