Happ Makes Final Bid for 5th Spot

Todd Zolecki reports that J.A Happ pitched in a minor league spring training game

against the Blue Jays in Dunedin.

“Happ allowed six hits, five runs, two walks and four strikeouts in 5 1/3 innings, but he pitched better than his line indicated. He struggled in the first inning, allowing three runs. But he retired 13 of 14 batters at one point. He allowed two more runs in the sixth, but those runs scored when the leftfielder couldn’t catch up to a flare in left field.”
