Mets hand Yankees 5th straight loss with 3 HRs, including Juan Soto's 21st, in 6-5 win
Juan Soto hit his 21st home run of the season, leading the New York Mets to a 6-5 win over the New York Yankees on Friday. The Yankees have lost five straight games and six of their past seven. Jasson Domínguez and Aaron Judge led off the game with back-to-back home runs to give the Yankees a 2-0 lead against Mets rookie Justin Hagenman. Judge hit his 32nd homer of the season, yet still trails the Seattle Mariners' Cal Raleigh, who hit two on Friday to extend his MLB lead with 35.

Making his second start since returning from the injured list, Stroman allowed three runs and seven hits in five innings with four strikeouts. Pete Alonso put the Mets on top, 3-2, with an RBI single in the third inning. But the Yankees responded in the fourth with Cody Bellinger's 13th home run of the season, yanking a low, inside cutter from Hagenman into the right-field upper deck. Domínguez gave the Yankees a 5-3 lead in the fifth with his second homer of the game, launching a two-run shot off reliever Austin Warren. However, the Mets chipped away at their deficit one inning later with a Brett Baty homer off Ian Hamilton. That set up Jeff McNeil for some game-winning heroics in the seventh. Luke Weaver took over with two outs in the inning, but walked Alonso on six pitches. McNeil followed with his own six-pitch at-bat, turning on a changeup low and in for an upper deck homer and a 6-5 lead. "As soon as it left the bat, I knew it was gone," McNeil told SNY's Steve Gelbs after the game. "That was fun." Weaver has allowed two runs in three consecutive outings. Advertisement "I said I've been feeling good, that just might be a lie now, I don't know," said the Yankees' former closer. "It's hard to make sense of what's going on" McNeil clinched the win with his glove in the ninth, getting two consecutive groundballs at second base to close out the game. He got the second out of the inning with a diving stop on what looked like a base hit from DJ LeMahieu. "When that ball hit my glove, I said 'Oh s***, it's in my glove,'" McNeil told reporters afterward. "I knew it was a big play because I knew Judge was up fourth that inning. We don't want him coming to the plate and that's why I was so excited about that one." Judge was indeed left standing in the on-deck circle after Dominguez's game-ending groundout. For the Yankees, the defeat follows getting swept in a four-game series versus the Toronto Blue Jays that knocked them out of first place in the AL East. The Yankees are 1.5 games behind the Blue Jays, pending Toronto's matchup with the Los Angeles Angels on Friday.

Soto powers Mets rally win in first game of Subway Series
July 4 - Juan Soto went 3-for-4 with two RBIs for the New York Mets, who rallied for a 6-5 win against the visiting New York Yankees in the opener of a three-game Subway Series on Friday. Mets reliever Huascar Brazoban (4-2) tossed a scoreless seventh inning to earn the win, and Reed Garrett did the same in the eighth and ninth for the save. Starter Justin Hagenman gave up four runs on five hits and struck out five in 4 1/3 innings his first major league start. The Mets have won three in a row. Marcus Stroman allowed three runs on seven hits across five innings for the Yankees, who have lost five straight. Trailing by one in the seventh and with Pete Alonso on, Jeff McNeil mashed a changeup into the second deck in right field off reliever Luke Weaver (1-3) to put the Mets in front 6-5. The Yankees took a 5-3 lead in the fifth. After DJ LeMahieu singled, reliever Austin Warren replaced Hagenman to face Jasson Dominguez, and the left fielder belted a two-run shot into the left-field seats. The Mets narrowed the deficit in the sixth inning off reliever Ian Hamilton. With one out, Brett Baty put a slider over the right-field wall to cut it to 5-4. The Yankees got the scoring started right off the hop. Dominguez led off the game by lifting a sinker just over the wall in left-center field for a 1-0 lead, his first home run since May 21 - a stretch of 33 games. Judge followed and crushed one 428 feet a few rows higher in left-center to make it 2-0. The Mets responded in the bottom of the first to tie it. Brandon Nimmo opened with a double and Soto pulled them even with a two-run shot to left-center. They went ahead 3-2 in the bottom of the third when Soto doubled and scored on Alonso's single to left. But the Yankees tied it 3-3 in the top of the fourth, with Cody Bellinger knocking a home run into the second deck in right field. -- Field Level Media

Yankees starter Clarke Schmidt allowed four hits in 7 2/3 innings, retiring 16 straight batters during one stretch. Angels right-hander José Soriano gave up six hits in seven innings.
