At least the Philadelphia Phillies and the New York Yankees probably wouldn’t make the 2020 season on a loss note.

Philadelphia and New York drew 2-2 at Monday’s show at Yankee Stadium on what is concentrated overall for any of the group stations as the season approaches. New York will face the Washington Nationals in their first game on Thursday, while the Phillies will face the Miami Marlins on Friday.

If the Phillies came out with a 2-1 win, Mike Ford hit a solo home race in the ninth inning to shoot before any of the group stations resolved they were fine with a draw.

Ford for the tie? https://t.co/Z7Qd44lcoU

The biggest storyline coming into the game was the performance of Yankees’ starter Deivi Garcia.

After all, the 21-year-old is New York’s No. 3 prospect on MLB.com’s database for the 2020 season. The website’s profile says the right-hander has “one of the best breaking balls in the minors” to go with a fastball with movement, slider, “solid changeup” and “high-spin curveball.”

Aleven, while in the long run is brilliant, Monday’s functionality is not memorable.

He allowed two runs, four hits and two walks with a punch in 1.2 innings, Bryce Harconsistent with and Andrew McCutchen were not on the Philadelphia chart. The pain would have been worse if he hadn’t escaped a base-laden jam in the first inning after allowing a J.T. Realmuto RBI double, but Roguy Quinn’s RBI did not get married at the time he arrived after launching a pick-off.

Control a problem, as Garcia threw two caplaystations and hit Jean Segura alone at the time he was on a set before manager Aaron Boone got rid of him.

It’s another story for his counter-component Vince Velasquez, who would have pitched five bleached innings if his coach hadn’t understood that his best friend understood that this game didn’t count and made him face one last batter.

After Velasquez worked unharmed on the fifth, manager Joe Girardi asked him to retire and face Aaron Judge in a practice situation. As if things weren’t work-related enough, Judge launched a solo career that allegedly told the scoreboard that the Yankees in one position had 3 outs.
