TORONTO — Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Bowden Francis threw eight no-hit innings on Wednesday afternoon before the bullpen faltered in a 6-2 loss to the New York Mets.
Francisco Lindor ended Francis's no-hit bid with a solo homer to lead off the ninth inning. He drove an 0-2 pitch an estimated 398 feet to tie the game.
Dave Stieb recorded the only no-hitter in Blue Jays history on Sept. 2, 1990 in a 3-0 road win over Cleveland. Schneider helped extend the no-hit bid in the sixth with a highlight-reel catch. Harrison Bader pulled the ball to deep left field but Schneider timed his jump perfectly and caught it against the wall.
With most of the announced crowd of 29,399 on their feet for the ninth inning, Francis got Lindor to fall behind in the count before the shortstop pounced on a 92-m.p.h. fastball for his 31st homer of the year.After Green struggled, Alvarez welcomed Cabrera by launching his first pitch an estimated 439 feet to straightaway centre field for his seventh homer.
