Blue Jays 1 Twins 2

The good news, the Jays pitching did a good job against a Twins lineup filled with regulars.

Pitchers:

  • Thomas Pannone: 2 innings, 2 hits, 1 earned, home run, 3 strikeouts. Not a bad outing, other than the home run off a breaking ball.
  • Jon Harris: 2 innings, 1 hit, 1 walk, 1 unearned run, 2 strikeouts. A passed ball set up the run.
  • Tim Mayza: 1 inning, 1 single.
  • Matt Dermody: 1.1 inning, 1 hit, 1 k. A much better outing. His last one went badly, 5 earned in 2 thirds of an inning.
  • Justin Shafer: 0.2 innings, 2 ground outs.
  • Chad Girodo: 1 inning, 2 ground outs and a fly out.

Batters:

We only had 6 hits:

  • Dalton Pompey: 0 for 3, 1 k, steal. He’s hitting .124 on the spring.
  • Kacy Clemens: 0 for 1.
  • Richard Urena: 0 for 3, k. Hitting .091.
  • Cavan Biggio: 1 for 1, triple.
  • Anthony Alford: 1 for 3, k, steal. .357.
  • Teoscar Hernandez: 0 for 3, 2 k. .167.
  • Lourdes Gurriel: 0 for 3, 1 k. .231.
  • Kevin Vicuna: 1 for 1, double. .500.
  • Danny Jansen: 0 for 2. .143.
  • Max Pentecost: 1 for 2, double, k. Drove in our run. .111.
