DUNEDIN, Fla. – Nathan Lukes had a two-run triple and Chris Bassitt had a strong start as the Toronto Blue Jays beat the New York Yankees 2-1 in spring training action Friday.
The Blue Jays got two of their three hits in a decisive sixth inning.
Bo Bichette doubled with one on to set up Lukes, who followed with a triple to score Alan Roden and Josh Kasevich, who had replaced Bichette as a pinch-runner.
Bassitt stuck out four over 4 1/3 innings. He surrendered four of New York’s five hits, including an RBI double by DJ LeMahieu in the third.
Yimi Garcia struck out two in a scoreless sixth to pick up the win for Toronto (5-8). Mason Fluharty struck out the side in the ninth for the save.
Former Blue Jay Marcus Stroman struck out two over four no-hit innings for the Yankees (5-8).
Yerry De Los Santos was tagged with the loss.
Toronto next faces Philadelphia on Saturday in Clearwater, Fla.
