The Toronto Blue Jays defeated a split-squad Pittsburgh Pirates team 5-2 on Sunday in Grapefruit League action at Dunedin Stadium.
Blue Jays starter J.A. Happ held the Pirates to one run on four hits with five strikeouts in six innings, while first baseman Justin Smoak clubbed a two-run home run in the seventh inning off former Blue Jays' draft pick John Stilson.
Here are some photos from Sunday at Dunedin Stadium:
The switch-hitting Smoak batted from both slides in Sunday's contest. His two-run home run would come batting from left-side in the seventh inning.
Second baseman Devon Travis blows a bubble as he prepares to swing. He batted leadoff and went 1-for-3.
Josh Donaldson batted third and went 0-for-2.
Donaldson manned third base for the Blue Jays.
