Toronto third baseman Ernie Clement might take some consolation in setting a major league record this postseason despite the Blue Jays falling to the visiting Los Angeles Dodgers 5-4 in 11 innings on Saturday night in Game 7 of the World Series.
Clement had three hits in the series finale to finish with 30 hits, a record for a single postseason.
He went 3-for-5 Saturday to finish with a .411 batting average this postseason, with one home run, nine RBIs, six doubles, one triple, a .416 on-base percentage and .562 slugging percentage. He singled in the second and sixth innings and set the mark with a leadoff double in the eighth against Dodgers reliever Emmet Sheehan.
Randy Arozarena previously held the record with 29 for the Tampa Bay Rays in 2020.
Clement, 29, also finished with a 13-game hitting streak to break Pat Borders' franchise mark of 12 in 1992.
In the regular season, Clement batted .277 with nine homers and 50 RBIs in a career-high 157 games.
For his career, Clement is batting .260 with 25 homers and 126 RBIs in 434 regular-season games for Cleveland (2021-22), Oakland (2022) and Toronto (2023-present).
Cleveland selected Clement in the fourth round of the 2017 MLB Draft out of the University of Virginia. Cleveland designated him for assignment in September 2022 and the Athletics claimed him off waivers, only to release him on March 12, 2023. Toronto signed him two days later.
