DUNEDIN, FL - Rehabbing Daulton Varsho went deep, while Tucker Toman's two-homer game and Johnny King's nine-strikeout performance powered the Dunedin Blue Jays to a 7-1 win over the Tampa Tarpons on Sunday afternoon at TD Ballpark in game three of a six-game series.

The Blue Jays have homered multiple times in three straight games, launching nine total over the first three games of the series against Tampa, where they've outscored the Tarpons 23-8.
