Tough Loss in the Subway Series 
Hey Yankees fans, what a heartbreaker today. We went down 3-2 to those Mets, and it was a tight game all the way through.Quick Start for Torres
We initially took the lead in the bottom of the 2nd inning thanks to Gleyber Torres smashing a solo homer to right-center (365 feet)
. It's always awesome to see Torres swinging like that, and it gave us the early momentum.Defensive Struggles
Pitching was solid initially. Luis Gil had it locked down until the 5th inning when things started to unravel. After some small ball, Francisco Lindor got hit by a pitch, allowing Jeff McNeil to score, tying it up at 1-1.Momentum Shift in the 6th
The real damage came in the 6th inning when McNeil hit a two-run homer (393 feet)
. That brought in Pete Alonso, and suddenly we were trailing 3-1. Comeback Hopes Dashed
We did our best to claw back in the bottom of the 6th. Anthony Volpe singled and later scored on Alex Verdugo's double. That brought us to 3-2 and gave us some hope, but Mets' pitching was just too stubborn today.Missed Opportunities
In the 9th inning, Juan Soto managed to draw a walk, giving us a flicker of hope. But Mets' reliever Jake Diekman got the best of us. Aaron Judge struck out looking, and Ben Rice grounded out, ending our rally attempt.Final Thoughts
It's a tough pill to swallow, especially against the Mets. However, this team has shown resilience time and time again. Let's keep our heads up—tomorrow's another day for baseball!
Yankees forever!
