TORONTO (Interstat) — Trey Yesavage pitched 6 2/3 innings of three-hit ball and the Toronto Blue Jays edged the New York Mets 2-1 on Monday, June 29, 2026, before 41,634 at Rogers Centre.

Yesavage (4-3) allowed one earned run, struck out three and walked none, leaving with a 2-0 lead after the sixth inning. He retired the side in order in the first, third and fourth, and worked around a two-out double in the fifth. The right-hander exited after issuing a leadoff hit by pitch to A.J. Ewing in the seventh, having thrown 88 pitches. Louis Varland recorded the final three outs for his 17th save.

Mets left-hander Sean Manaea (1-3) matched Yesavage for much of the night, allowing two runs – one earned – on three hits over 5 2/3 innings. He struck out four and walked three but was hurt by a first-inning triple and a fifth-inning sacrifice fly.

Toronto struck in the bottom of the first. George Springer led off with a triple to center field that center fielder A.J. Ewing misplayed, allowing Springer to score on the error. Manaea limited further damage, stranding runners at first and second after Ernie Clement’s two-out single and a walk.

The game remained 1-0 until the fifth. With one out, Luis Urías doubled to left off Manaea and advanced to third on Yohendrick Piñango’s groundout. Myles Straw then lifted a sacrifice fly to center, scoring Urías and extending Toronto’s lead to 2-0.

New York cut the deficit in the seventh. Francisco Lindor led off against Yesavage by homering to right field, his third of the season, making it 2-1. Yesavage then retired the next two batters, and after Ewing was hit by a pitch, catcher Brandon Valenzuela caught Ewing attempting to steal second to end the inning.

The Mets threatened again in the eighth. With one out, Francisco Alvarez doubled off reliever Tyler Rogers. After Carson Benge grounded out, Rogers intentionally walked Juan Soto, bringing Bo Bichette to the plate. Bichette grounded out to first to end the inning.

In the ninth, Varland entered and allowed a one-out single to Jared Young. A.J. Ewing walked to put the tying run in scoring position, but Varland struck out Mark Vientos and Ronny Mauricio to end the game.

The Mets managed only five hits, with Lindor’s homer and Alvarez’s double accounting for their only extra-base hits. Soto singled and doubled off Yesavage but was stranded twice. Toronto collected four hits, led by Springer’s triple and a single by Vladimir Guerrero Jr. in the eighth.

Joey Gerber pitched a scoreless seventh for New York, and Austin Warren worked 1 1/3 scoreless innings with two strikeouts. For Toronto, Mason Fluharty retired the only batter he faced in the seventh, and Tyler Rogers allowed one hit in a scoreless eighth.

The win improved Toronto to 40-45, while New York dropped to 35-49, having lost six of its last seven games. The game lasted 2 hours, 24 minutes.
