Blue Jays 2 Twins 1<\/p>\n
The Jays got a bunch of hits (10) but only 2 runs, so they are in mid-season form. And they got good pitching. They loaded the bases in the first, with the help of a couple of errors, with no outs but managed not to score. I did say mid-season form.<\/p>\n

Max Scherzer still hasn\u2019t given up a run this spring, going 5 innings, allowing 2 hits, 2 walks with 3 strikeouts. With all the injuries to starting pitchers, at the top of the season, I\u2019m glad they signed him. He got the win.<\/p>\n
Other pitchers:<\/p>\n
Joe Mantiply: 1 inning, 1 hit, 1 k. 3.00 ERA on the spring.<\/p>\n
Chase Lee: 1.2 innings, 1 hit. 0.00 ERA on the spring.<\/p>\n
Lazaro Estrada: 1.1 innings, 2 hits, 1 earned, 1 k. 4.76 ERA. He got the save.<\/p>\n
Hitters, starters:<\/p>\n
Myles Straw: 1 for 4, k. .206.<\/p>\n
Nathan Lukes: 2 for 3, .333.<\/p>\n
Jes\u00fas S\u00e1nchez: 1 for 3. .244. He hit a deep fly that was just foul in the first. He tried to lobby the umpires into thinking it was right over the foul pole.<\/p>\n
Davis Schneider: 2 for 4. .139.<\/p>\n
Tyler Heineman: 1 for 3, RBI. .300. Hit into a double play in the first to end the inning.<\/p>\n
Leo Jim\u00e9nez: 0 for 3 with 2 strikeouts. .217. I would have liked him to hit better this spring, since he\u2019s on the bubble for a roster spot.<\/p>\n
Sean Keys: 0 for 2, walk. .195.<\/p>\n
Arjun Nimmala: 1 for 3, k. .250.<\/p>\n
Josh Kasevich: 2 for 3, RBI. .306. He\u2019s had a very nice spring.<\/p>\n
Others:<\/p>\n
Carter Cunningham: 0 for 1, k. .206. The great thing about spring training is there are always names you haven\u2019t heard.<\/p>\n
RJ Schreck: 0 for 1. .143.<\/p>\n
Rafael Lantigua: 0 for 1. .355.<\/p>\n
Charles McAdoo: 0 for 1. .194. He started spring really great.<\/p>\n
Josh Rivera: 0 for 1. .211.<\/p>\n
Tomorrow the Jays play the Pirates in Bradenton, Florida and there is a spring breakout game, Jays Prospects vs. Phillies Prospects. And then Sunday is the last spring game.<\/p>\n
We don\u2019t have any pictures from today\u2019s game yet, so I\u2019m cheating, using one from yesterday\u2019s game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Blue Jays 2 Twins 1 The Jays got a bunch of hits (10) but only 2 runs, so…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":634184,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[3],"tags":[5,377,8496,13860,81293,6920,4619,5056,29408,22104,381,4,6082,8678,62,71483,33267,7000,70,15820],"class_list":{"0":"post-634183","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-mlb","8":"tag-baseball","9":"tag-blue-jays","10":"tag-chase-lee","11":"tag-davis-schneider","12":"tag-eddie-micheletti-jr","13":"tag-fifth-inning","14":"tag-joe-mantiply","15":"tag-kim-klement","16":"tag-lazaro-estrada","17":"tag-leo-jimenez","18":"tag-max-scherzer","19":"tag-mlb","20":"tag-myles-straw","21":"tag-nathan-lukes","22":"tag-new-york-yankees","23":"tag-sean-keys","24":"tag-td-ballpark","25":"tag-the-jays","26":"tag-toronto-blue-jays","27":"tag-tyler-heineman"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/634183","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=634183"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/634183\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/634184"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=634183"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=634183"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=634183"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
