The New York Yankees were defeated by the New York Mets on Tuesday night.  The game took place at Yankee Stadium in the Bronx, New York and the final score was 10-4.  James Paxton started for the Yankees and he was terrible.  Chance Adams gave them some innings but wasn’t great and DJ LeMahieu, Gary Sanchez, Gleyber Torres and Brett Gardner each had two hits to lead the offense.

LeMahieu had two hits, Luke Voit had a hit and drew a walk and Sanchez had two hits.  Torres had two hits, an RBI and drew a walk, Clint Frazier had an RBI and Gio Urshela had an RBI.  Austin Romine drew a walk, Gardner had two hits and an RBI and Gardner hit a homerun.  The Yankees were 2-8 with runners in scoring position and left eight men on base.  Urshela committed an error. 

Jeff McNeil had two hits, J.D.

In the first Alonso hit a three-run homerun to give the Mets a 3-0 lead.  In the third Conforto hit an RBI single to push the Mets lead to 4-0.  Ramos hit an RBI single, Hechavarria hit an RBI single and it was 6-0.  In the third Torres hit an RBI single, Frazier hit an RBI ground out and Urshela hit into a force out to cut the lead to 6-3.  In the fourth Davis hit a two-run homerun pushing the Mets lead to 8-3.  In the fifth Gomez hit a solo homerun and the Mets lead was extended to 9-3.  In the ninth Rosario hit an RBI double to make it 10-3 and in the bottom of the ninth Gardner hit a solo homerun cutting the lead to 10-4 but that would be the final score. 

The two teams split the double header and the brief two-game series and will both be off on Wednesday.  The Yankees will head to Chicago to take on the White Sox in a four-game series beginning on Thursday night.  The Mets will be at home to begin a four-game series with the St. Louis Cardinals.
