Jose Bautista kept up his torrid start to the spring, hitting two doubles and
driving in two runs Thursday that sent the Toronto Blue Jays over the
Philadelphia Phillies 7-5. A day after hitting a long home run against the
Phillies in his first at-bat of exhibition play, Bautista had an RBI double in
the first inning off Philadelphia ace Cliff Lee. Bautista finished 2 for 2 with
a walk. The former two-time major league homer champion missed the final six
weeks last year because of a hip injury. Jose Reyes, Brett Lawrie and
Melky Cabrera also drove in runs for Toronto. "I thought we swung the bats
pretty good," Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said. Gibbons liked how many of
Torontos hits were up the middle or to the opposite field. "Against a lot of
lefties and things like that, you have to be able to do that and I think it was
progress for us," he said. Lee allowed two hits and a run in two innings. He
struck out three and walked none. "Obviously Im trying to throw strikes," Lee
said. "I made a couple mistakes. The first double was, for sure, a mistake. I
tried to throw a backdoor cutter and it ended up right down the middle." "And
then Bautista, I just missed on the pitch before and tried to throw the same
pitch. It wasnt a bad one, its just you get into a 2-2 count with him in that
situation is not where you want to be. He put a good swing on it." Philadelphias
offence was powered by a pair of home runs from bench hopefuls: Darin Ruf hit a
two-run shot in the third and John Mayberry Jr. had a solo drive in the sixth.
Blue Jays starter R.A. Dickey allowed one unearned run in two innings. He gave
up two hits, two walks and struck out two. STARTING TIME Phillies: Lee gave up
doubles to two of the first three batters he faced, then stopped the Blue Jays.
He is the odds-on favourite to start on opening day March 31 at Texas. Blue
Jays: Dickey got through an uneasy first inning to feel good about his spring
debut. The knuckleballer walked back-to-back batters with one out in his opening
inning. "Im feeling a lot better than I was at this point last year, so Im
hoping that will carry out through the rest of spring and opening day," Dickey
said. RUF RIDER Ruf hit a long home run off Esmil Rogers with one on and no one
out in the third inning. The shot was the first for any Phillies player this
spring. Ruf finished 1 for 3 with a walk. KNUCKLED Dickey worked with new
battery partner Erik Kratz for the first time this spring. Kratz, a catcher
acquired from the Phillies in a trade this winter, wore a first basemans glove
in an attempt to have a better chance at catching Dickeys arsenal of
knuckleballs. Kratz allowed one passed ball in the games first inning. "Its a
hard thing to do," Dickey said. "The game speed, and runners on -- its just
going to take some time. But I felt like he looked real comfortable back there.
Outside of the one passed ball, I felt like he handled it pretty well." TRAINERS
ROOM Philadelphia right-handed reliever Mike Adams threw off the mound for the
first time since undergoing shoulder surgery on July 31. He was limited to 28
games in his first season after signing a two-year, $12 million free agent deal
with the Phillies. The veteran setup reliever hopes to join the Phillies bullpen
at some point in April. "It went good -- really good," he said. "It was probably
an 85 per cent bullpen or so. I wasnt trying to let loose right off the bat. I
was trying to get a good feel for throwing off the slope again." Philadelphia
right-hander Ethan Martin, who entered camp competing for the fifth starters
job, left after facing four batters in the fifth inning with shoulder
discomfort. Hell be examined by the team medical staff on Friday morning. "He
was pain-free pitching, but the ball just wasnt coming out, throwing 85 miles
per hour," Phillies manager Ryne Sandberg said. "That was a sign for me to go
out and see what was going on."

BUENA VISTA, Fla. -- Matt Kemps agent said the Los Angeles Dodgers are not
trading the All-Star outfielder. Dave Stewart spoke Wednesday with Los Angeles
general manager Ned Colletti at baseballs winter meetings, and walked away
feeling confident the Dodgers wouldnt move his Kemp. Rumours have circulated
this week that the Dodgers are listening to offers for Kemp, who is heading into
the third year of an eight-year, $160 million contract. "For the time being they
are not going to move him," Stewart said. "He didnt even say that. I put in the
words for the time being because you never know. Somebody could come along and
overwhelm them with a player or players or a combination of players that would
make it worth their while." Stewart said Kemp, who is coming off left anklle and
left shoulder surgery, is right on track to be ready for the upcoming season
after he hit only six homers and had 33 RBIs while hitting .

manager Don Mattingly said Tuesday he may have to juggle starts for Kemp,
Yasiel Puig, Carl Crawford and Andre Ethier. "Ill say this, and this is me
talking, A healthy Matt Kemp is better than anybody theyve got playing centre
field," Stewart said. "They may play four outfielders but, if hes healthy, hes
not going to be a platoon guy. Im saying that. If hes healthy, which we have no
reason to believe hes not going to be healthy, hes going to play centre field
every day and they can figure out what they want to do with the other three."
