"Wednesday's intrasquad scrimmage at the Rogers Centre was as loud as it gets. The couple thousand fans in the lower deck weren't causing the commotion, though; it was the loudspeakers pumping fan noise on the loudest setting possible. Nevertheless, the Jays pulled off a classy move by donating all proceeds to the Jays Care Foundation, and they will do it all over again on Thursday."
"Some more encouraging swings came from Anthony Santander and Davis Schneider. In the fourth, Santander smoked a hard RBI double down the left field line off Easton Lucas, followed by a Schneider bomb that grazed the second deck a few at-bats later. Again, simulated games like this don't always tell much of a story, but if there's anything to take away, it's that a few of the notable bats looked great, especially when matched up against Lucas, who got shelled for four earned runs."
"On the pitching front, Tommy Nance impressed the most. Specifically, his curveball did most of the heavy lifting for him. Nance made quick work in the bottom of the second, as he struck out Varsho looking at the curveball, followed by a chase in the dirt from Loperfido. Overall, it was a strange day at the ballpark. The fake fan noise was as loud as it gets, and we saw at-bats like Brayden Fisher versus Jay Harry, a sixth-round pick"
An intrasquad scrimmage at Rogers Centre used loudspeakers to simulate crowd noise while a couple thousand fans watched in the lower deck. The Blue Jays donated all proceeds to the Jays Care Foundation and planned to repeat the event the following day. Vladimir Guerrero Jr. produced two loud hits to the left centre gap, including one that appeared to reach 120 mph. Anthony Santander hit a hard RBI double and Davis Schneider hit a long home run that grazed the second deck. Easton Lucas allowed four earned runs. Tommy Nance impressed with a sharp curveball, striking out Varsho and inducing a chase from Loperfido.
