Lee Outpitches Dickey; Blue Jays Beat Phillies

CLEARWATER, Fla. (AP) — Cliff Lee gave up a run in three innings, outpitching fellow Cy Young Award winner R.A. Dickey, but Adam Lind and Dan Johnson each homered for the Toronto Blue Jays in 5-3 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies on Tuesday night.

Lee, the 2008 AL Cy Young winner with Cleveland, allowed three hits and struck out two. He matched up against the 2012 NL winner — with the New York Mets — for the second time in six days. Dickey yielded three runs and four hits in four innings of his second spring start. He struck out two and walked three.

Lind connected off right-hander B.J. Rosenberg with two outs in the fourth inning.

Marlon Byrd hit an opposite-field homer in the third off Dickey.
