Guerrero, Kirk, Sanchez help Jays roll to 14-1 win in final game of spring training

On Sunday, the Toronto Blue Jays routed the Tampa Bay Rays 14-1 in Dunedin in the final spring training game, with Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Alejandro Kirk, and Jesus Sanchez each hitting two-run homers.
After the first pitch, Toronto produced a six-run first inning that included five two-run homers and a seven-run fourth capped by George Springer's three-run homer.
Dylan Cease earned the win, striking out six over five innings, then relievers Spencer Miles, Louis Varland, Mason Fluharty and Braydon Fisher followed, with Varland allowing Tampa's only run in the seventh on a solo homer by Carson Williams.
The Rays turned to six relievers after Nick Martinez gave up 11 runs on 12 hits in 3 2/3 innings, raising concerns about their pitching staff.
In the eighth inning, Toronto added to its lead when an unnamed reliever allowed three hits and two walks but surrendered no runs.
