Travis Snider has belted the first home run of spring training for the Jays, an opposite field poke to tie today's proceedings at 1-1 against the Phillies in Clearwater. He was robbed of extra bases in his first at-bat on a leaping catch at the wall by John Mayberry Jr., the offspring of former Jay John Mayberry. Just remember, when Snider wins the rookie of the year, you heard it here first!!
Meantime, Jason Lane has just followed with another solo poke and J.P. Arencibia just missed making it back to back to back jacks. You can listen to today's game on bluejays.com.
Pitching wise, Scott Richmond pitched two shutout innings and Bryan Bullington gave up a run on two hits and two walks in two innnings but struck out four.
