In goes Frazier

Making his first appearance in a game this spring, third baseman Todd

Frazier hit a rope to deep left field for an out and struck out looking in two trips to the plate. The veteran played four innings in the field and handled his two chances, both pop- ups.

Fulmer feeling ‘ great’

Starting pitcher Carson Fulmer, who’s expected to start the season at Class AAA Charlotte but should make his way to the South Side before long, had a solid outing, working two scoreless innings before surrenderi­ng a solo home run to Lewis Brinson in the third.

“I don’t ask questions. I just continue to get better each day and continue to build [ with] this organizati­on and what they want me to do,” he said. “But I feel great about where I am.”

Fulmer, who made 11 relief appearance­s for the Sox after being called up last July, is maintainin­g a patient approach.

“I always want to be in the rotation,” he said. “We all work really hard to be part of a big- league rotation, but I stay out of it. I feel my time will come.”

Smooth ’ Sail- ing

Have yourself a day, Avisail Garcia. The big fella had three hits, including a home run, and scored twice.

And who says he’s not a good right fielder? A designated hitter no more ( we think), Garcia also made two excellent plays in right, one of them of the all- out- diving variety. Center fielder Adam Engel also made a beautiful diving catch.
