Bell Lays Hammer Down in 9-2 Win
Toronto (GCL) Blue Jays starter P.J. Bell had all his pitches working at Pirate City Complex. His stellar performance paved the way for an easy 9-2 Toronto (GCL) win over the Pittsburgh (GCL) Pirates. The Blue Jays sport a record of 21-32.

Bell was effective for Toronto (GCL), seldom allowing the Pirates to square up a pitch. The left-hander tossed 124 pitches over 9 innings. He limited Pittsburgh (GCL) to just 2 runs on 2 hits.

"I'm proud of the boys for pulling through," said Blue Jays manager Matt Carpenter. "The wins don't come easy for this team, but everyone's got an extra jump in their step after a game like this."
