- Mets reliever Joey Gerber exits Wednesday's game against Blue Jays with blister
Mets reliever Joey Gerber exited Wednesday's 9-3 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays with a blister on his right finger, interim manager Andy Greenconfirmed after the game.
In his first inning of work, Gerber worked around a leadoff walk for an 11-pitch fifth, and after getting the first man of the sixth on five pitches, the trainer was called upon.

This isn't the first time Gerber has dealt with the blister on that finger. He landed on the injured list in April due to the blister and, when it flared up again in June, he was forced out of a game against the St. Louis Cardinals .
Entering Wednesday's game, Gerber had pitched six innings on the year over four outings, allowing one run on five hits and a walk with eight strikeouts.
