Former Met Chris Bassitt pitched like an ace at Citi Field on Friday night. Mere hours after his wife Jessica went into labor back in Toronto.
Chris Bassitt pitched like an ace at Citi Field on Friday night … but it happened 236 days too late to help the Mets advance in the postseason.Bassitt elected to risk missing the birth of his second child Friday to stay in New York with his Blue Jays teammates and return for the first time to the mound on which he had he struggled last year in the elimination game of the Mets’ loss to the Padres in the wild-card series.
Chris Bassitt outdueled Justin Verlander in the Mets’ 3-0 loss to the Blue Jays and is now heading to Toronto to be with his wife Jessica, who is in labor.The Blue Jays held a jet at the airport for Bassitt, whose wife had not given birth by the end of the game, Schneider said. Bassitt’s one season with the Mets mostly was a success , but will be remembered for its sour ending.
“I wish something else played out,” a wistful Bassitt told The Post earlier this season. “I don’t care how I personally did, but I wish we won the games. Regret isn’t the right word. I don’t regret anything. There’s nothing I would change [preparation-wise]. Just the result.”
