"Entering last night's game against the Dodgers, Clement was running with an 11-game hit streak, one that started back on October 13th, the second game of the ALCS against the Seattle Mariners. While he struck out in his first at-bat against Yoshinobu Yamamoto, the New York product bounced back in the bottom of the fifth inning by lacing an inside fastball from the Japanese starter through the left side of the infield for a single."
"Clement has been on fire this postseason, authoring a .397/.403/.544 slash line with five doubles, one triple, one home run and nine RBIs to the tune of a .947 OPS. Splitting his time between third and second base, Clement has been an instrumental figure for the Blue Jays this postseason, the first time he has played October baseball in his career."
