After the Mets left two men on in the bottom of the fourth, Mets’ pitcher Walker unraveled. Springer and
Marcus Semien smashed a three-run home run to left field. This not only opened Toronto’s lead to 6-0 but also chased Walker. Taijuan’s final line was four innings pitched, six hits against, six earned runs, and three home runs allowed. He has now allowed 12 runs in his last two starts (4.1 innings pitched).

With nearly every other AL Wild Card contender struggling right now, the Mariners have picked a great time to put together their strongest stretch of play this season. They’ve moved ahead of Toronto after their series win in Buffalo last week and leapfrogged Cleveland over the weekend. They’re now just 3.5 games behind the A’s for the second Wild Card spot. Is this success sustainable? None of the playoff odds models think it is; FiveThirtyEight is the most bullish, giving the M’s a 9% chance of making the playoffs; FanGraphs (2.4%) and Baseball Prospectus (1.8%) are much more skeptical. Still, if the results keep coming, the Mariners could find themselves in the odd position of being buyers before the trade deadline.
