Blue Jays’ Ernie Clement Dismisses Post-Season Hits Record After World Series Loss
Clement recorded 30 hits in the 2025 playoffs, setting an MLB record, but prioritized the Blue Jays' World Series loss over his personal achievement.
- On Nov. 1, 2025, 29-year-old Clement collected 30 post-season hits, surpassing Randy Arozarena's 29, but the Toronto Blue Jays lost Game 7 of the World Series to the Los Angeles Dodgers 5-4 in 11 innings.
- After earlier stints in Cleveland's system and a March 13, 2023 waiver claim, Clement became a regular in 2025, appearing in 157 games and earning Gold Glove nominations.
- Blue Jays manager John Schneider said Clement’s playoff performance was historic as he hit a.411 batting average over three rounds with a home run, six doubles, nine RBIs and a.416 on-base percentage in 18 playoff games.
- Clement said in the Blue Jays clubhouse that `I don't really care about it, I just love every single guy in here so much` and he would miss his teammates in the off-season.
- Coaches and teammates framed his season as a transformation, noting Clement evolved from a waiver-wire pickup into an everyday major leaguer who contributed to a championship run.
