Astros 2 Blue Jays 5

Nice win for the Jays. That moves us to 6-2 plus a tie, on the spring.

The batters:

  • Yunel Escobar: 1 for 3, walk..200.
  • Kelly Johnson: 0 for 3. .231. Also made an error.
  • Jose Bautista: 2 for 3, 2 home runs, 3 RBI. .417.
  • Adam Lind: 2 for 3. .385.
  • David Cooper: 1 for 1, RBI. .333.
  • Edwin Encarnacion: 1 for 3. .313. Made a few plays are third, no errors.
  • Colby Rasmus: 0 for 3, 2 k. .167.
  • J.P. Arencibia: 0 for 3. .077.
  • Travis Snider: 1 for 2, home run, walk. .294. Also made a nice catch in the field, if Jerry and Alan can be trusted. A nice day for him.
  • Jeff Mathis: 1 for 4. .250.

Pitdhers:

  • Dustin McGowan: 2 innings, 1 hit, 1 k. 4 ground outs.
  • Aaron Laffey: 3 innings, 3 hits, 3 k, 6 ground outs. He had a really good day. I wonder if he will get a shot at the lefty, long relieve/occasional starter spot.
  • Francisco Cordero: 1 inning, 1 hit, 1 walk, 1 k.
  • Casey Janssen: 1 inning. there were a couple of good plays behind him, one by Omar Vizquel and one by Jake Marsinick.
  • Carlos Villanueva: 1 inning, 1 run, unearned.
  • Chad Beck: 1 inning 2 hits, 1 earned, 1 k.

Two home runs from Baustista, another homer from Snider, a good couple of innings from McGowan. Can we start the season now?
