Frazier’s two-run HR lifts Mets over Jays

Toronto — Todd Frazier hit a tworun homer, Brandon Nimmo reached base three times and the New York Mets beat the Toronto Blue Jays 6-3 on Wednesday night.

Frazier gave the Mets the lead with a drive to center field off Marcus Stroman (1-6) in a five-run fifth inning.

Seth Lugo (3-3) pitched three innings of relief for the win. Jeurys Familia closed for his 16th save in 20 opportunities.

Wilmer Flores had two hits and Kevin Plawecki scored twice for the Mets, who had lost 11 of 13.

Toronto's Kendrys Morales hit a solo home run in the second but the Mets answered on Nimmo's RBI single in the third. Lourdes Gurriel Jr. restored Toronto's lead with a two-out RBI single in the fourth before Stroman unraveled in the fifth.

Flores led off with a single and scored on Frazier's 10th home run. Jose Bautista and Asdrubal Cabrera chased Stroman with consecutive RBI singles, and Michael Conforto capped the outburst with a run-scoring single off reliever Luis Santos.

Stroman snapped a six-game losing streak, the longest of his career, by beating Detroit in his previous start. But he struggled in this one, allowing six runs and six hits in 4.2 innings. His ERA rose from 6.02 to 6.50.

Making his major league career start, New York right-hander Corey Oswalt allowed two runs and five hits in four innings.
