Navie almost makes it 2-0. Almost.

The wind is blowing out to right field today.

The wind is always blowing out, it seems, except at Al Lang Field, where the wind is always blowing in.

Anyway ...

Navarro got one up into the jet stream and it would have been 2-0 had Toronto right fielder Alex Rios not jumped at the wall and brought it back to end the inning, stranding Jonny Gomes on first.

First time I’ve seen that all year. Someone robbed of a home run, not Gomes stranded on first.

It’s a web gem if this were the regular season.

But it is spring training, and it goes down as fly ball to right.

Hammel allows a hit but strikes out two in the bottom of the inning.

No score after two.
