TAMPA, Fla. -- Yankees starter Nathan Eovaldi put together another strong outing Sunday afternoon, tossing four scoreless innings as the Yankees beat the split-squad Phillies, 3-2, at George M. Steinbrenner Field.
Eovaldi gave up two hits and struck out three while facing the minimum number of batters over four innings. The 25-year-old right-hander threw 38 of his 45 pitches for strikes.
"Today, overall everything felt pretty good," Eovaldi said. "For the most part today, I was able to throw all four of my pitches, so that's a good sign."
The Yankees got on the board quickly against Phillies right-hander Sean O'Sullivan. Center fielder Jacoby Ellsbury led off with a triple into the left-center-field gap and scored on catcher Brian McCann's one-out sacrifice fly to center field.
O'Sullivan retired six straight batters after that. He pitched three innings, allowing two hits and a walk while striking out two.
Yankees right-hander Chase Whitley, competing for the fifth spot in the rotation, followed Eovaldi with two strikeouts in two perfect innings.
The Phillies got on the board against Yankees reliever David Carpenter in the seventh inning. Center fielder Ben Revere drew a leadoff walk, stole second, took third on a wild pitch and scored on right fielder Domonic Brown's RBI single to right field.
Yankees third baseman Chase Headley broke the 1-1 tie in the seventh inning with a solo shot to right field -- his first homer of the spring -- off Phillies right-hander Kevin Slowey.
Up next for the Yankees: After a day off Monday, CC Sabathia will make his Grapefruit League debut on Tuesday against the Blue Jays at Steinbrenner Field. The big left-hander, recovering from right knee surgery, went 3-4 with a 5.28 ERA in only eight starts last year. He is slated to start opposite Toronto right-hander Drew Hutchison. First pitch is scheduled for 7:05 p.m. ET on the YES Network.
