Halladay faces minimum in Jays' win
03/07/2006Blue Jays at the plate: Shea Hillenbrand hit his first home run of the spring, a three-run shot to center field in the first inning. Three batters later, outfielder John-Ford Griffin added an RBI double. Curtis Thigpen added an RBI double, as well, in the third inning. Catcher Erik Kratz hit a solo home run in the eighth.
Reds at the plate: Felipe Lopez went 2-for-3 with a double and a single. Lopez reached first on a dropped third strike in the sixth inning, and he later scored on a two-run double down the left-field line by Edwin Encarnacion. Steve Torrealba added an RBI single in the ninth inning.
Blue Jays on the mound: Roy Halladay pitched three innings and faced the minimum of nine batters. The right-hander forced five groundouts and struck out one in his second start of the spring. Halladay, who threw 25 pitches, did allow one hit -- a single to Lopez, who was then caught stealing.
Reds on the mound: Left-hander Eric Milton, who missed his first start of the spring with a strained right calf, lasted just two-thirds of an inning against Toronto. Milton walked one and allowed four runs on four hits, including the homer to Hillenbrand. Milton left the game after 33 pitches and after working Thigpen into a 3-2 count. Chris Michalak finished off the frame.
Grapefruit League records: Toronto 1-5, Cincinnati 3-4
