Spring Training Game Thread 9. March 28, 2022, 12:05 CDT. Astros @ Cardinals

The Astros evened their Spring Training record to 4 -4 with a 4 -3 win over the Marlins Sunday evening.

I thought it was cool when Yuli Gurriel hit his second homer in two games Friday, but with his third homer in three games Sunday, I’m starting to think that he needs to save a few for the regular season.

Gurriel's three-run-job accounted for most of the Astros’ scoring, but rookie SS Jeremy Pena got two hits as well as Alex Bregman.

Pitcher Luis Garcia got his first Spring action and looked good, throwing two complete scoreless innings allowing only one hit, one walk, while striking out three.
