TORONTO — Chris Bassitt threw six strong innings and Davis Schneider hit a two-run triple to help the Blue Jays to a 6-2 win over the New York Mets on Tuesday night.
Schneider keyed Toronto's four-run third inning by driving a David Peterson pitch to the wall in right-centre field to bring home Ernie Clement and Alejandro Kirk.
Clement, who scored three runs, had two of Toronto's 12 hits. The last-place Blue Jays , who have dropped three series in a row, will try to reverse that trend in the rubber game of the interleague set on Wednesday. In the bottom half, Toronto's Daulton Varsho collided awkwardly with Pete Alonso when the first baseman stumbled on his way to the bag. Both players remained in the game.
The attempt was off-target and Varsho took second base as the ball rolled into foul territory. He scored the go-ahead run on a Kirk double and Schneider later came across on a Joey Loperfido single.
