After a hot start to the tournament, unfortunately Australia has been eliminated from the World Baseball Classic after losing 7-2 to Korea. Travis Bazzana didn’t have the best tournament performance, but he came through at the end and had an RBI single to put them in position to advance before they gave up a run in the 9th inning. It would’ve been super fun to see Travis play on an even bigger stage, but at least now we’ll have him back with the team in Goodyear soon.
The Guardians beat the Royals
6-2 today, and it was quite the eventful game for some key players. Steven Kwan went 2-3 with two HRs, his first of the spring. Brayan Rocchio also hit a massive 408 foot Home Run, he has quietly had a really nice spring. Petey Halpin has also continued his awesome spring by going 1-3 with a double.
Parker Messick was absolutely awesome today! He went 4.2 innings, allowing zero earned runs on just two hits with four strikeouts and one walk. His velocity looks good as he was up to 96 today and his ERA is down to 1.93 this spring. He is going to be a massive part of the team this season.
The Guardians will take on the Giants Tuesday at 4:05 pm ET.
