Quick Blue Jays recap: Alford and Smith homer

Blue Jays 4 Rays 7

Ryan Borucki had a very nice first spring outing. 2 innings, one walk, 1 strikeout and 1 double play. A nice way for him to start his spring.

On the opposite end, Matt Dermody had a rough time. Gave up 4 hits, 5 earned, 1 walk while getting just 2 outs. He also gave up a double and a triple.

Craig Breslow also gave up a home run and a double, in his inning of work, with 2 strikeouts. William Ouellette gave up our other run, another home run, while just getting 1 out, a strikeout.

Other pitchers:

• Luis Santos: 1 inning, 1 walk, 1 k.
• Al Alburquerque: 1 inning, 1 hit, 1 k.
• Tim Mayza: 1 inning, 1 single.
• Jose Fernandez: 1 inning, 1 hit, 2 walks, but no runs.

Tomorrow the Yankees are visiting Dunedin. It appears not to be on TV or MLB.tv which surprises me, I thought all the Yankee games were on YES.
