Clearwater's Jesse Biddle had three strikeouts sandwiched around two infield hits in his one inning for the North in the Florida State League All-Star Game on Saturday.
The North, featuring seven members of the Class A Threshers, lost, 6-3, in Port Charlotte, Fla.
On his first pitch, Biddle, the Phillies' first-round pick in 2010, deflected a ball back up the middle by Marcell Ozuna that rolled to second baseman Ryan Schimpf.
He struck out the next two batters swinging and then Blake Forsythe singled on an 0-2 pitch to short. Biddle retired the side with a four-pitch strikeout.
