Daily News | Why Bryson Stott’s first hit and RBI weren’t the most impressive parts of his major league debut
“Outstanding,” the manager said.
But Girardi was talking more about Stott’s response to a difficult seventh inning. Playing third base — he’s a natural shortstop — Stott made two poor throws that contributed to Oakland runs. He was given an error on one, a chopper that he charged and threw wide of first base. First baseman Rhys Hoskins was charged with an error on the other because he was unable to hold onto the ball.
“To kind of mess that one up and allow a run there and then to be able to come right back and get those two in a row,” Stott said, “it was awesome.”The Phillies put Stott on the opening day roster because they were impressed with more than his spring training stat line . They believe the 24-year-old top prospect can handle the pressure of playing in the majors, even at multiple positions.
“It says that he’s pretty mature and can turn the page,” Girardi said. “Because that’s not easy, right? Opening day. You’ve probably got jitters anyway. You get two really tough plays and he’s not able to make them. He didn’t get a play like that all spring. It’s something we’ll continue to work on him with. But it says a lot.”
