Quick recap: Jays beat Phillies

Blue Jays 14 Phillies 5

The Jays are now 9-6 on the spring.

Today’s star was Vladimir Guerrero. He was 4 for 4 with two doubles and a triple. He came a few feet from a home run twice. He is hitting .520 this spring.

But then a lot of the Jays batters had a good time today:

• George Springer: 2 for 4. .278.
• Josh Palacios: 2 for 2. .400.
• Marcus Semien: 2 for 4, home run. .240.
• Santiago Espinal: 1 for 2. .363
• Bo Bichette: 1 for 4. .150.
• Breyvic Valera: 0 for 2, 2 k. .118.
• Teoscar Hernandez: 2 for 4, 2 doubles. .263.
• Austin Martin: 1 for 2, k. .125.
• Richard Urena: 0 for 2, k. .000.
• Lourdes Gurriel, 1 for 4. .292. Also missed a catch in the outfield losing a ball in the sun, playing an easy out into a double.
• Cavan Biggio: 2 for 3, walk .286.
• Randal Grichuk: 2 for 4, 2 doubles. .222.
• Danny Jansen: 1 for 3, 2 walks. .200.
• Reese McGuire: 0 for 1. .167.

On the pitching side:

• Tanner Roark: He pitched 3 good innings, with just a hit batter and the fly ball that Lourdes played into a double. The fourth didn’t go well, he gave up a walk, single, walk, single which cost two runs. I’m taking this as a positive and that he tried in the fourth inning.
• Kirby Snead got the last two outs of the fourth, giving up a sac fly to score a third run against Roark’s record.
• Ross Stripling, who likely has a starting job with Pearson out, went 3 innings, allowed 3 hits, including a home run, 2 earned, and a walk.
• Tyler Chatwood: 2 perfect innings with a strikeout.

Tomorrow the Jays host the Yankees
