Bucs silenced by Blue Jays

03/22/2006
Blue Jays at the plate: In the first inning, Vernon Wells sent an 0-2 pitch from Pittsburgh's Ian Snell over the left-field wall for a solo home run -- his first shot of Spring Training. Russ Adams singled and stole second in the third inning, then scored on an RBI double by Frank Catalanotto. Adams added an RBI single in the seventh. Bengie Molina had an RBI single in the fourth and Aaron Hill hit his first homer of Spring Training in the fifth.
Pirates at the plate: Ryan Doumit and Jose Bautista each doubled against Toronto -- the only two hits for Pittsburgh. Bautista's hit came in the eighth inning and he later scored when Ray Sadler reached first base on an error by Jason Phillips, who was playing third base for the Jays.
Blue Jays on the mound: In his first start of the spring, Gustavo Chacin allowed one hit in three scoreless innings. Chacin, who missed part of Spring Training while playing for Venezuela in the World Baseball Classic, struck out three and walked three.
Pirates on the mound: Starter Ian Snell threw 65 pitches -- 47 strikes -- in 4 1/3 innings. He struck out two and gave up four runs on five hits, including the homers to Wells and Hill.
