Braves at the plate: Andruw Jones hit his first homer of the spring, a two-out fourth-inning solo shot. Jeff Francoeur's fifth-inning solo blast gave him his third homer in the past four games. Marcus Giles struck out and drew a walk in his first game since March 14.
Phillies at the plate: Ryan Howard continued his power barrage with a three-run sixth-inning homer off Jorge Sosa. It was Howard's ninth Grapefruit League home run. Chris Roberson provided two singles, including one to begin a four-run sixth inning.
Braves on the mound: Kyle Davies allowed four hits in five scoreless innings. Sosa, making his first appearance since returning from the World Baseball Classic, allowed three singles and Howard's homer before recording his second out in the sixth inning.
Phillies on the mound: Ryan Franklin allowed two earned runs and three hits in five innings. Geoff Geary allowed an Adam LaRoche double, but he completed a scoreless sixth inning.
Grapefruit League records: Phillies 14-6-1; Braves 7-13-1.
