New York Yankees defeated the New York Mets to win second straight of Subway Series


The New York Yankees defeated the New York Mets on Saturday night.  The game took place at Citi Field in Flushing, New York and the final score was 4-3.  Domingo German started for the Yankees and after a rough first inning he settled down and pitched well and the bullpen was great.  Steven Matz started for the Mets and he pitched ok.  The Yankee offense produced three more homeruns and after the first inning the Mets offense continued to do not much. 

German pitched six innings giving up five hits and three runs with no walks and nine strikeouts.  David Robertson won his fifth game of the season pitching an inning giving up a hit and he struck out one, Dellin Betances pitched a perfect inning with three strikeouts and Aroldis Chapman won his 17th game of the season pitching an inning with two walks and two strikeouts. 

Matz pitched six innings giving up five hits and three runs with four walks and six strikeouts.  Robert Gsellman pitched an inning with a walk, Anthony Swarzak lost his first game of the season pitching an inning and giving up three hits and a run with two strikeouts and Jerry Blevins pitched an inning with a walk and a strikeout. 

Aaron Hicks had a hit and drew a walk, Aaron Judge had a hit and an RBI and Giancarlo Stanton drew a walk.  Gary Sanchez drew a walk, Miguel Andujar had two hits and two RBI and Didi Gregorius had three hits.  German drew a walk, Brett Gardner drew a walk and Gleyber Torres had a hit, an RBI and drew a walk.  Hicks hit a double and Torres, Andujar and Judge each hit a homerun.   The Yankees were 0-5 with runners in scoring position and left six men on base.  Torres was caught stealing and Hicks was picked off. 

Amed Rosario had a hit, Todd Frazier had a hit and an RBI and Brandon Nimmo had a hit.  Asdrubal Cabrera had a hit and two RBI, Jay Bruce drew a walk and Adrian Gonzalez had a hit.  Kevin Plawecki had a hit and drew a walk, Plawecki hit a double and Gonzalez hit a double.  Nimmo hit a triple and Frazier and Cabrera each hit a homerun.  The Mets were 1-9 with runners in scoring position and left six men on base.  Rosario had a stolen base and Matz and Blevins each had a pickoff. 

In the first Frazier and Cabrera each hit a homerun to give the Mets a 3-0 lead.  In the third Torres hit a solo homerun to cut the lead to 3-1.  In the sixth Andujar hit a two-run homerun to tie the game at three and in the eighth Judge hit a solo homerun to give the Yankees a 4-3 lead and that would be the final score. 

The Yankees have taken the first two games of the series to win another series and will look for the three-game sweep on Sunday night.  The Yankees have only lost 1 of their last 15 series.
