Yankees Win Subway Series Over Mets Amid Key Performances, Potential World Series Talks

The annual Subway Series between the Yankees and Mets electrified New York, with both teams leading their divisions and fans creating a playoff-like atmosphere. Yankees manager Aaron Boone praised the intensity at Yankee Stadium, while Mets star Pete Alonso fantasized about a potential World Series rematch, highlighting the unique hometown rivalry and ease of logistics. Juan Soto, now a Mets player after a record-breaking contract, drew heavy boos from Yankees fans, intensifying the rivalry further. Yankees ace Max Fried, signed after Soto's departure, shined in his first Subway Series start, making history by allowing two runs or fewer in each of his first ten starts. Fried dominated with his signature curveball, notably freezing Soto in a key moment that drew praise from Yankees legend CC Sabathia. Cody Bellinger also emerged as a key contributor for the Yankees, extending his hitting streak and delivering a grand slam to seal the series win.
