- DeGrom threw 81 pitches without strikeouts despite having 1,728 career strikeouts and a 30.9% strikeout rate entering the game, while Toronto's Kevin Gausman struck out six over eight innings with a career-high 89.7% first-pitch strike rate.
- The loss ended deGrom's seven-start winning streak and highlighted his ongoing efforts to adjust his mechanics and manage workload as he seeks to extend his career effectively.
