Springer went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional RBI during the Blue Jays' 12-4 loss to the White Sox on Friday.
Springer got the Blue Jays on the board in the third inning on a fielder's choice before taking Trevor Richards deep to left field in the fifth. It was the 10th home run of the season for Springer, who played defense for the first time this season with a start in left field. That could open more opportunities at DH for catchers Alejandro Kirk and Brandon Valenzuela, or even rookie Sean Keys, as Toronto searches for a spark on offense.
