Francis in the Ninth

Bowden Francis of the Blue Jays comes out for the ninth inning, scheduled to face Mets top of the order, Francisco Lindor, Jose Iglesias, and Mark Vientos. Iglesias was hit by a pitch to go along with the one walk and one strikeout. Twenty four of the twenty seven Mets batters put the ball in play.

This is the second time in two weeks he goes into the ninth with a no-hitter.

The Blue Jays lead the Mets 1-0.

Update: Lindor falls behind 0-2. He hits the next pitch for a home run to tie the game. That’s how Francis lost the no-hitter against the Angels.
