Blue Jays go batty, beat Mets for 1st time in NY

The Blue Jays’ recipe for success this year has been pretty simple: Score at least five runs, and it has led to a victory every single time. Toronto improved to 18-0 when scoring at least five runs, with the latest outburst coming in a 12-1 victory over the Mets on Wednesday at Citi Field. Compare that with a 4-21 record when scoring four runs or fewer and it becomes pretty clear what Toronto needs to do in order to compete. The win was Toronto’s first victory on the road vs. the Mets in franchise history after the club lost its previous 12 games.
