Nathan Hickey singled in a run in his lone at-bat Sunday against the Blue Jays.
Hickey also impressed on the basepaths today, taking second on the throw home on the single and then racing around to score on Dalton Guthrie’s single to right with two outs. Guthrie, who is quite a bit faster than Hickey, wound up getting thrown out at second trying to stretch the single, but Hickey hustled all of the way and scored the run before Guthrie was tagged. Hickey is 3-for-4 this spring. The University of Florida prospect hit .265/.362/.496 between high-A and Double-A last year, but questions about his defense behind the plate have dogged him as a prospect.
