Jay homers twice, Padres down Dodgers despite Rea's wildness
PEORIA, Ariz. (AP) Jon Jay homered twice and Colin Rea labored through five innings in the San Diego Padres' 11-9 spring victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Tuesday.
Jay, acquired from St. Louis in an offseason trade to play center field, hit an opposite-field homer to left and pulled a two-run shot off right-hander Ross Stripling.
Wil Myers also hit a two-run homer off Stripling, making his first spring start.
Justin Turner belted a solo shot off Rea, contending for one of two open starting spots. The right-hander walked in a run and let another score on a wild pitch. Rea allowed three runs, five hits and five walks.
Adrian Gonzalez had two singles and reached base three times and Joc Pederson hit a three-run homer for the Dodgers, who visit San Diego in the season opener Monday.
