Blue Jays’ Vladimir Guerrero Jr’s clutch RBI-single sinks Mets

The Mets weren’t able to carry over the joy and excitement of Saturday’s Hall of Fame induction after losing its second straight game, 2-1, to the Toronto Blue Jays.

Immediately after Blue Jays manager John Schneider was ejected for arguing a strike call, Vladimir Guerrero Jr’s RBI double gave Toronto the go-ahead run that led to a win.

Tylor Megill got the start for the Mets and allowed just one run, five hits, five walks and struck out five in 5.1 innings of work. His lone run came in the sixth inning on a Alejandro Kirk infield single that shortstop Francisco Lindor couldn’t handle, scoring Brandon Belt.

Megill started the game in some trouble in the first after allowing two singles to George Springer and Bo Bichette. Megill also gave up a walk in the frame but he got out of it unscathed after 18 pitches.

Blue Jays starter Jose Berrios also gave up just one run on Saturday. Daniel Vogelbach’s RBI double to center scored Starling Marte to put the Mets up 1-0 in the second. The hit snapped an 0-for-9 skid entering the game. He was also hitting .125 with runners in scoring position before getting the hit to score Marte.

Berrios’ day was up after six innings of work. He allowed four hits, one earned run, three walks and struck out six hitters.

Lindor went 0-for-4 on the night but came up with a clutch play of defense to keep the score tied. He threw pinch-runner Cavan Biggio out at home on a fielder’s choice to get the second out of the inning. Reliever David Robertson then struck out Kirk to end the frame.

But it wasn’t enough as the Mets sent a crowd of 37,000 fans home with a loss after they watched some of their beloved Mets figures get inducted into the team’s Hall of Fame.

The two teams will be back in action on Sunday. Blue Jays left-hander Yusei Kikuchi (4.47 ERA) will take the mound against right-hander Kodai Senga (3.44).
