DUNEDIN, FL. - The Dunedin Blue Jays defeated the Daytona Tortugas by the final score of 12-4 on Friday night to earn the organization's 2,500th total win in franchise history.
Dunedin came into the 2019 season with a combined regular and post-season record of 2,439-2,217 and needed just 47 wins to reach the 2,500 wins plateau.
