Phillies Beat Noles 12-4 In Exhibition Game


For Love of the Game was the theme on Wednesday night in Clearwater, Fla. as the Florida State Seminoles took the field with the Philadelphia Phillies in an exhibition contest at Bright House Networks Field, the home of the Phillies spring training and their Class A affiliate the Clearwater Threshers. Players from both teams exchanged hand shakes before and after the game, enjoying the fun and excitement that the night had to offer. Although the Phillies won the game 12-4, it was the experience of playing with major leaguers that the Seminole players will remember forever.

"It was a lot fun tonight," said coach Mike Martin. "But the nice thing about tonight was that we played professionally. There was no messing around. Everyone was ready to go."
