Jacob Homer, Bichette Triple, Pascual Wins

By Eddie Michels on July 6, 2016

Below, Blue Jays prospect David Jacob (32nd Round) homered to tie the game at one as the Blue Jays beat the Yankees East Squad 6-1 with five runs in the top of the ninth. Jacob’s homer came on an 0-2 pitch and cleared the right center field fence at the Yankees Himes Avenue Complex in Tampa with plenty to spare.
