Thairo Estrada had a hit, Aaron Judge had two hits and three RBI and Gleyber Torres had a hit.  Giancarlo Stanton had a hit and an RBI, Aaron Hicks drew a walk and Gary Sanchez had a hit and an RBI.  Luke Voit had a hit, an RBI and drew two walks, Brett Gardner had two hits and drew a walk and Gardner hit a double, Judge hit two homeruns and Sanchez, Voit and Stanton each hit a homerun.  The Yankees were 0-7 with runners in scoring position and left seven men on base.  Matt Duffy committed an error and Montgomery had a pickoff. 

Robinson Cano had a hit, Michael Conforto drew a walk and Amed Rosario had two hits.  Rosario hit a double and the Mets were 0-4 with runners in scoring position and left four men on base.  Conforto was picked off and Cano committed an error. 

In the first Judge hit a homerun giving the Yankees a 1-0 lead.  In the fourth Sanchez hit a solo homerun to push the Yankees lead to 2-0.  In the sixth Voit hit a solo homerun giving the Yankees a 3-0 lead.  Judge hit a two-run homerun pushing the Yankees lead to 5-0 and in the seventh Stanton hit a solo homerun making it 6-0 and that would be the final score. 

The Yankees will play their final exhibition game on Monday night against the Phillies at Yankee Stadium.  They will then workout for a couple more days before beginning the season on Thursday night in Washington against the Nationals.
