Quick spring recap: Jays beat Yankees

Blue Jays 6 Yankees 4 (7 innings)

I really enjoyed getting to see baseball again. I didn’t enjoy the YES broadcast team interviewing bored Yankees, instead of showing us the game.

Jays who impressed:

• Anthony Kay looked very good in his two perfect innings, getting 2 strikeouts. GameDay said his fastball was mid-90s, topping at 97.
• T.J. Zeuch had a good inning and a less good inning. Allowing a run in his two innings.
• Anthony Castro looked good, getting the last two outs of the fifth after Jake Waguespack had some troubles.
• Joel Murray and Bryan Baker each looked good pitching the last two innings.
• Logan Warmoth homered.
• Rowdy Tellez (looking slimmer) was 2 for 2, with a double and 2 RBI.
• Marcus Semien singled and walked and looked smooth at second.
• Cavan Biggio had a hard hit opposite-field double.
• Bo Bichette walked twice.
• Vlad singled, was hit by pitch and hit a fly ball to the track. We thought it would have been out with last year’s ball.
• Jonathan Davis singled, stole second, scored, and was hit by pitch.
• Chavez showed his range in center field, he can run.
• Forrest Wall singled and he stole third base.

Looking less than great:

• Jacob Waguespack had a rough time, giving up back-to-back home runs, 3 hits, 3 earned getting 2 outs.
• Otto Lopez booted an easy ground ball. He also stole a base, going into the game as a pinch-runner.
• Danny Jansen went 0 for 3 with a strikeout.
• Jordan Groshans was 0 for 2 with a k.

I’m glad baseball is back and happy to have a GameThread again.
