Evan Longoria Has Yet To Play Field This Spring

San Francisco Giants third baseman Evan Longoria (plantar fasciitis) has hit very well this spring, compiling a .474/.500/1.211 slash line with four home runs and 10 RBI.

Toronto Blue Jays second baseman/shortstop Marcus Semien went 2-for-3 with a double, a home run, and two RBI in Monday's win over the Tigers.
