PHILADELPHIA — Chris Bassitt tossed three-hit ball and struck out six over 6 2/3 innings and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. had three hits and an RBI to lead the Toronto Blue Jays to a 5-3 victory on Wednesday that ended the Philadelphia Phillies’ home winning streak at 11 games.
The Phillies snapped an overall seven-game winning streak and fell shy of the franchise-record 12 straight victories at Citizens Bank Park, which opened in 2004. The Phillies won 16 straight home games in 1977 and 1991 at Veterans Stadium. Bassitt lost his last three starts coming into the game, but the 2021 All-Star kept the Phillies' offence in check. Bassitt's only jam of the game came in the third when he walked two batters to open the inning and Johan Rojas singled to load the bases. Kyle Schwarber hit a sacrifice fly in right-field foul territory as George Springer made a headfirst diving catch.
After escaping the third-inning jam, Bassitt let the Blue Jays' offence chip away at Aaron Nola and reliever Matt Strahm in the sixth.
