WATCH: Bryson Stott inside-the-park homer headlines 3-RBI day in Phillies win over Tigers

Bryson Stott gave the Sunday crowd in Clearwater a show, launching an inside-the-park home run and adding a clutch RBI single to fuel Philly’s 4-2 win over the Tigers. It’s always nice to watch something outside of another Grapefruit League box score filler, as the Phillies are now just four days away from Opening Day, so check this out.

Bryson Stott Inside-the-Park Homer

Bottom of the fifth. Tie game. J.T. Realmuto standing on first. Bryson Stott laced a liner to left-center and thanks to some clumsy work in the Tigers’ outfield, Max Clark and Justyn-Henry Malloy collided and the baseball rolled freely into no-man’s land. Realmuto scored with ease. Bryson Stott casually jogged around the base paths the whole way home.

Stott Stays Hot at the Plate

Bryson Stott’s bat looked sharp all game. He followed up the wild fifth-inning homer with a clean RBI single in the seventh to extend the lead to 3-1. He finished 2-for-3 with three RBIs, raising his spring average and putting a stamp on a productive day.

This is the version of Stott the Phillies want heading into the season — gap power, contact consistency, and elite-level baseball IQ. The kind of spark plug that quietly drives a lineup.

Bryson Stott’s inside-the-park home run is the headline, but the real takeaway is that the 2024 Gold Glove finalist looks locked in. With Opening Day just days away, the Phillies are starting to show signs of a team ready to hit the ground running — quite literally, in Stott’s case.

Keep your eyes on No. 5 this year. Stott needs to prove he’s not just a glue guy anymore and can be a difference-maker in an already-stacked Phillies lineup.
