What happened: Vladimir Guerrero Jr. recorded an unusual single when his bat shattered upon initial contact. A ricocheting piece of the barrel struck the ball a second time in mid-air before it fell for a base hit.

Why it matters: The play provides a bizarre footnote to a difficult season for Guerrero. Toronto sits at 73-82, with the $500 million star recently apologizing for comments about his contract as the team misses the postseason.

What to watch: The Blue Jays will finish their remaining 2026 regular-season schedule.
