Buchholz Torched By Marlins

Marlins' Stanton hits two homers in spring debut

      JUPITER, Fla. (AP) – Mike Stanton hit two three-run homers and
had seven RBIs in his first game of spring training, and the
Florida Marlins beat the Red Sox 15-7.
      Florida hit four home runs – they had seven all spring coming
in.
      Red Sox starter Clay Buchholz allowed 11 runs – six earned – and
11 hits in four innings. He entered with an 0.69 ERA.
      “Just one of those days,” Buchholz said. “You got to let it
go.”
      Stanton strained his right quadriceps in a game against the
University of Miami on Feb. 27. He has played in minor league games
for about the last 10 days. Stanton also had a run scoring single.
      Javier Vazquez went four innings, allowing six runs and eight
hits, including home runs to Jarrod Saltalamacchia and Jacoby
Ellsbury. Saltalamacchia was 3 for 3 with four RBIs.
