Andrew Painter made his Triple-A debut with the Lehigh Valley IronPigs, and the Phillies' top prospect was tested multiple times in his first outing.

Painter, who is recovering from Tommy John surgery on his pitching elbow, rung up five of the first eight batters he faced, including WooSox left-fielder Roman Anthony, the top prospect in all of baseball, who went down on four pitches, flailing at a 12-to-6 curveball for strike three to lead off the game.

Painter threw three scoreless innings in his Triple-A debut, putting him one step away from MLB. The Phillies expect him to be there soon.
