    ABOUT LAST NIGHT...: The Blue eld Blue Jays turned what was a tight game for ve innings into a laugher. Matt Dean belted his rst professional home run in the fthinning to start a 4-for-4 night in which he drove in three and scored twice in the Jays 9-2 win over the rival Princeton Rays at Hunnicutt Field on Thursday. Blue eld leads the of-11 Mercer Cup series four games to two. The two sides exchanged unearned runs in the rst inning. Christian Lopes scored for the Jays in the top half on an interference erroby third baseman Daniel Duran. Princeton evened the score in the bottom half when Brandon Martin reached on a Dean throwing error and scored on Ariel Sorianos groundouBlue eld starter Kevin Comer cruised along after the rst, retiring nine in a row and 11 of 12. The Rays rallied against him after Deans homer and tied the game in the bottom othe fth on an RBI single by Duran. Princeton was poised to take the lead when they loaded the bases with only one out, but Comer struck out Andrew Toles and set down Soriaon a y out to preserve the tie. The Jays busted out in the sixth inning with a four-run rally ignited by Santiago Nessys homer, his fourth of the season. Everything else came wtwo outs against lefty Chris Kirsch. Seth Conner singled and Jacob Anderson was hit by a pitch. Dean singled to score Anderson before Dennis Jones, making his Blue eld debafter a call-up from the Gulf Coast League, doubled in two runs to make it a 6-2 game. Blue eld wasnt done as they scored two more in the eighth on an RBI double from Andand another run-scoring hit from Dean. They tacked on one more in the ninth on a Dwight Smith Jr. ground out. The Anderson-Dean-Jones bottom third of the lineup combinedto go 6-for-11 with a homer, two doubles, six runs batted in and four runs scored. Grif n Murphy was brilliant again in relief for the Baby Jays. Just as he did on Friday night, thsouthpaw worked a scoreless sixth, seventh and eighth with three strikeouts. Julio Carmona pitched around a leadoff walk in the ninth to nish the game.VS. THE RAYS: The Blue Jays won three of the rst ve games in this years Mercer Cup series. The Rays and Jays split two one-run games in Blue eld before the third gamwas rained out. Jeremy Gabryszwski and Grif n Murphy combined for a shutout in Princeton on Friday, then the two clubs split a doubleheader at Bowen Field on Saturday. ThBlue Jays defeated Princeton in seven of 11 games last year to win the Mercer Cup. They took three of four in Princeton from June 30 to July 3 before dropping a July 4 meetinat home, 5-4. Princeton won two of three at Bowen Field at the end of July in a set that included a doubleheader split. So the Mercer Cup was tied 4-4 with three games to playBlue eld on August 9-11. The Jays won 6-2, then Deivy Estrada pitched ve shutout innings the next night to win the clincher and keep the Rays from retiring the Cup.- TONIGHTS PITCHING PROBABLES -GABRYSZWSKI: It was deja vu for right-hander Jeremy Gabryszwski on Friday. After shutting out the Twins on four hits in a season-high ve innings in his previoustart, the 19-year-old out of Crosby, TX did it again at Princeton on Friday. He teamed with lefty reliever Grif n Murphy on a ve-hit shutout in a critical Mercer Cup game. He taken in the second round of last years draft, splitting time between the Gulf Coast League and Blue eld. After four and one-third scoreless innings in three GCL games, Gabrywski moved up to the Appy League on August 29, turning in a shutout inning of relief at Danville. He relieved twice in the postseason for the Jays, allowing two runs in four atwo-thirds innings. A graduate of Crosby High School, he had committed to play college ball at Lamar before signing with Toronto.SNELL: In a pairing of two of the Appalachian Leagues best pitchers, 19-year-old left-hander Blake Snell gets the ball for Princeton. He ranks second in the circuit in ER(0.84) and batting average against (.157) while his 0.87 WHIP is fourth-best. Burlington southpaw Colin Rodgers leads in all three categories with eye-popping numbers (0.73,0.65). In 32.1 innings he has struck out 36 batters, ve off the league lead. Snell faced the Jays in the rst game of a doubleheader on Saturday, tossing ve shutout innings whilestriking out six and allowing only three hits. He was matched zero-for-zero by Tucker Jensen before Blue eld rallied against the bullpen to win it. With eight and two-thirds shuinnings of one-hit ball and 13 strikeouts over his rst two games in 2012, he earned Appy League Pitcher of the Week honors. He was home-schooled until his senior year at Shwood High School in Washington, when he posted a 1.00 ERA and 118 Ks in 56 innings. That made him Tampa Bays supplemental rst-round pick in 2011, 52nd overall and ahead of Blue eld CF Dwight Smith Jr. He went 1-2 with a 3.08 ERA in 26.1 innings in the Gulf Coast League last year.

    DEANS LIST: Blue eld third baseman Matt Dean broke out in a big way in last nights win. He set a new 2012 team high with four hits, including his rst professional homrun, and knocked in a career-high three runs. After a second-inning single, the Highland Village, Texas native belted an opposite- eld, tie-breaking solo homer in the fth. Up 3-

    the next inning, he singled home Seth Conner during a key two-out rally. He delivered another two-out run-scoring hit in the eighth that helped put the game out of reach. A 13round draft pick last year, Dean was ranked by Baseball America as Torontos 11th-best prospect before the 2012 season. He struggled out of the gate in his rst 15 games as aprofessional, hitting only .189. Hes turned it on of late, hitt ing .333 (11-33) with seven runs scored and seven runs batted in over his last 11 contests.

    WELCOME ABOARD: Two players saw their rst action as a Blue eld Blue Jay in last nights win. Left elder Dennis Jones was called up from the Gulf Coast League on
