SARASOTA, Fla. – Left-handed specialist Clay Rapada just breezed through the sixth inning, which seemed appropriate on an extremely windy day.

Four pitches, two outs.
Freddy Galvis flied to left field to end the inning.
Rapada threw 11 pitches, nine for strikes. The one that struck out Schneider was clocked at 74 mph, leading a scribe on press row…SARASOTA, Fla. – Left-handed specialist Clay Rapada just breezed through the sixth inning, which seemed appropriate on an extremely windy day.
