Wilmer Flores singled to cap a two-out, two-run rally in the 11th inning and the New York Mets ended Toronto's team record-tying 11-game winning streak, beating the Blue Jays 4-3 Monday night.
The Blue Jays trailed 2-1 in the ninth before Jose Bautista tied it with his second home run of the game, connecting against Jeurys Familia.
Toronto took the lead in the 11th on Dioner Navarro's sacrifice fly off Hansel Robles (2-0). The Mets then came back for their fourth win in five games.
With Ruben Tejada on first and one out, Michael Cuddyer hit a potential game-ending double-play grounder to second baseman Danny Valencia. Tejada smartly slowed up and Valencia tagged him, but too late to throw onto first.
Lucas Duda followed by slicing a single to shallow left field and Cuddyer hustled all the way home.
Duda took second on the throw, Liam Hendricks relieved and Flores lined the first pitch up the middle, setting off a raucous celebration near second base.
The Mets were the other team in the majors with an 11-game winning streak this season.
Local
Familia was trying for a four-out save for the second straight day. He wound up with his second blown save this season, spoiling a dominant start by Noah.
Pitching on an extra day's rest, the rookie right-hander nicknamed Thor struck out a career-high 11 and allowed two hits in six overpowering innings.
Syndergaard, traded by the Blue Jays to the Mets, left with a 2-1 lead against the team that racked up 88 runs in reeling off 11 consecutive wins.
Bautista hit a mammoth homer into the second deck in left field with two outs in the first, but Toronto's relentless offense was stifled by Syndergaard and relievers Carlos Torres and Jack Leathersich through 8 2-3 innings.
Syndergaard was the starter a week ago when San Francisco's Chris Heston pitched a no-hitter at Citi Field. This time against Mark Buehrle, the Mets went without a baserunner until Duda led off the fifth with a sharp grounder that hopped over the glove of first baseman Edwin Encarnacion, who went down to one knee to try to catch the ball.
New York broke through against Buehrle in the sixth, taking advantage of former Mets star Jose Reyes' throwing error from deep shortstop on Kevin Plawecki's grounder to open the inning.
Juan Lagares and Tejada each had RBI doubles in the sixth.
Buehrle allowed four hits and two runs in seven innnigs. The Mets are the only team Buehrle hasn't beaten in his 16-year career, all in the American League except for one season with Miami.
TRAINER'S ROOM
Blue Jays: RHP Aaron Sanchez was put on the 15-day disabled list with a mild lat strain. Manager John Gibbons hopes Sanchez will miss just one more start and will be able to pitch the next time his turns comes up on June 21, the day he is eligble to come off the DL.
Mets: RHP Vic Black has a minor groin injury, which has delayed his rehab from a shoulder injury, general manager Sandy Alderson said.
UP NEXT
Blue Jays: RHP Scott Copeland will make his second start in place of Sanchez. In his first career start Wednesday, Copeland gave up one run and six hits over seven innings against the Marlins.
Mets: RHP Matt Harvey is coming off a poor start, allowing seven runs and nine hits in six innings. He was tagged for three homers and has given up 12 longballs in his first 12 starts.
UMPIRE HURT
Home plate umpire Marty Foster left the game after being hit in the facemask by a foul ball in the third inning. The game at Citi Field was delayed for 11 minutes. Foster was struck squarely on the mask by a ball off the bat of Toronto's Josh Donaldson with one out. Crew chief Mike Winters, who was working at second base, took over at home in the bottom half.
