BRADENTON, Fla. (AP) — Vance Worley struck out five while pitching into the fourth inning and the Philadelphia Phillies beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 11-4 in a split-squad game on Saturday.
Worley allowed one run and two hits in 3 1-3 innings. The 23-year-old right-hander split time last season between Double-A Reading and Triple-A Lehigh Valley.
John Mayberry had three hits and three RBIs for Philadelphia, which pushed across four runs in the first and four in the fourth.
Ross Ohlendorf was scheduled to pitch four innings for the Pirates, but was lifted before he could record an out in the third. He allowed four runs and five hits, walked three and struck out one.
Lyle Overbay hit a solo homer for Pittsburgh, his third in 26 at-bats this spring.
