️ Early Innings & Yankee Dominance
The game started off promising with Starling Marte reaching on a bunt single and then stealing second in the first inning. Sadly, we couldn’t capitalize on that early opportunity. The Yankees were the first to get on the scoreboard in the 3rd inning, thanks to a home run by Austin Wells. The 4th and 5th innings saw the Yankees extend their lead to 5-0, highlighted by a two-run homer from Aaron Judge. Our pitching struggled to contain their hits during this stretch, but it wasn’t all over yet!Mets Rally, but Fall Short
Our bats finally woke up in the 5th inning. Francisco Lindor came through with a clutch single to center, scoring Jeff McNeil and Hayden Senger. In the 6th inning, the offense kept rolling as the Yankees' pitchers started feeling the pressure. Ronny Mauricio and Brett Baty got on base, and McNeil once again came through, bringing in another run to close the gap to 5-3. When Senger hit into a double play that brought home another run, it became a narrow 5-4 game.Final Innings & Yankees’ Insurance Run
