To be quite honest, finding photos to use for Spring Training threads can get old. There aren’t as many good photos available, specifically of starting pitchers. But then I saw that Daniel Murphy was batting 5th for the Rockies. A trip down memory lane was in order.

The plan was for Keller to pitch one inning, so the start was according to plan. he hasn’t pitched since February 24.

Jorge Soler is also back in the lineup for the first time since Saturday.
