DUNEDIN, Fla – Baseball is synonymous with routine.
The 23-year old slugger prides himself on his hitting as well as his consistent approach to the game. Spanberger hit three home runs, including a grand slam, to lead his team to a 12-0 victory in the elimination game. The Granite City, Ill., native became the first player in an SEC Tournament game to hit three home runs and collect seven RBIs, while simultaneously cementing himself as a legitimate prospect.
The first baseman joined the Blue Jays after being acquired with outfielder Forrest Wall from the Colorado Rockies for reliever Seung-hwan Oh last July, but not before making a name for himself – and his bat – once again.
