Milk 5-4, lost to KC Thurs. they started 5-0!

SF 6-3, beat AZ Thurs, now 1-17 vs them in preseason! lost contest before that, the won the previous three.

Yost said he never heard from the San Francisco Giants on Thursday, a sign that Barry Bonds would not be ready to play in Friday's game at Scottsdale Stadium.

The Giants want to use Bonds as a designated hitter during home games while the outfielder recovers from knee surgery. But the opposing team has to say yes to the league-bending experiment, and the Brewers seemed hesitant.

"Nobody's called. Nobody's said nothing!" Yost said. "I'm going to have a pitcher in there."

Gary Glover is scheduled to start for Milwaukee against Giants right-hander Brett Tomko.

Tomko was roughed up a bit versus the White Sox in Tucson on March 7, but he still picked up the win after giving up three hits, including a homer, and two runs over two innings.

This will be San Francisco's first game against Milwaukee this spring.

Among the hottest regulars entering the game will be Pedro Feliz, who is batting .450 with a club-high 14 total bases, and Edgardo Alfonzo, who is hitting .364 with a pair of RBIs.

Deivi Cruz has been strong as a part-time starter, notching a .417 average and a .750 slugging percentage

Philly paper other day reported: Floyd, meanwhile, starts tomorrow in Sarasota against the Reds' murderous lefty lineup, which will include Ken Griffey Jr. as the designated hitter. "That'll be fun," Floyd said

The Braves will head across town to face Roy Oswalt and the Astros during a Friday afternoon game at Osceola County Stadium. Smoltz is scheduled to throw three innings. New closer Dan Kolb will make his second appearance of the spring.

Smoltz will be looking to continue the starters' scoreless streak and further build up endurance in his arm. As he builds innings, he and the Braves will have a better idea of what pitfalls might be ahead as he transitions from a closer to a starter.

This will be Smoltz's only road start during the Grapefruit League season

The Astros will host the Atlanta Braves Friday at Osceola County Stadium at 1:05 p.m. ET. Right-hander Roy Oswalt will face Atlanta right-hander John Smoltz. Left-hander John Franco and right-hander Russ Springer are also slated to pitch for Houston

Kevin Brown, having thrown three innings of one-run ball in his debut against the Reds on Sunday, makes his second official start of the spring.

Among the position players making the trip will be Jason Giambi, Derek Jeter, Tony Womack, Bernie Williams, John Flaherty, Sanchez, Rolls, Crosby and Glanville. Pitchers Steve Karsay, Scott Proctor and Bret Prinz are also headed for Lakeland

The Tigers return to Lakeland to host the Yankees on Friday in a 1:05 p.m. matchup. Mike Maroth will make his second start of the spring, followed by Troy Percival, Jamie Walker, Ugueth Urbina, Doug Creek, Kyle Farnsworth and Craig Dingman.

The Tigers lost for a second game Thursday, dropping an 8-7 game that lasted 13 innings so that both teams could find innings and playing time for their pitchers. Detroit and Cincinnati combined to use 38 position players and 19 pitchers in a game that lasted three hours, 39 minutes

FL 3-6 beat DC thurs, beat Dodgers tues, lost 2 monday

The Orioles travel to Jupiter on Friday to face the Marlins for the fourth time this spring. Riley will start, followed by right-hander Kurt Ainsworth and left-hander Eric DuBose.

Riley started against the Marlins on March 3, and he allowed two runs and two hits in two innings. Ainsworth and DuBose are competing with Riley for the No. 5 job in the rotation, but have not gotten many opportunities in games. Mazzilli said he has not made a decision and he will take a long look at both pitchers.

The Marlins return to Roger Dean Stadium on Friday to take on the Orioles in a 1:05 p.m. ET start. A.J. Burnett, who is 0-1 with a 10.80 ERA in two spring starts, makes his third start. Burnett struggled in two innings the last time out, giving up four runs to the Cardinals. Al Leiter also is expected to pitch on Friday, following Burnett.

The Marlins are hopeful Carlos Delgado will see his first Grapefruit League action that day, but that will be a gametime decision. Also Friday, the Marlins will play an intrasquad game on the back fields at Roger Dean Stadium, with Ismael Valdez getting the start

..........

Colo 7-2, five straight wins now
Seattle 1-7, lost yesterday, and day before, beat Milk Tues

With Chacon scratched from Friday's start, Jason Young gets the nod to take the mound against the Mariners in Peoria. Young is looking for his third Cactus League victory in just his second start. He has given up one run in five innings, and is tied for the lead in wins among all Major League pitchers.

Young is considered a long shot to make the rotation, but another strong outing Friday would give the Rockies something to think about.

Going into Thursday's game against the Cubs, Seattle's 7.65 team ERA was the highest in the American League.

Going into Friday afternoon's game against the Rockies at Peoria Stadium, Ichiro is batting .467 (7-for-15) with a double and triple in his first five Cactus League games. He has two walks and no strikeouts
