Mets 6 Yankees 5 Post Game Notes - 7/4/2025
NY Post:Jeff McNeil’s late home run propels Mets past sliding Yankees in Subway Series thriller. "Pete Alonso’s two-out walk in the seventh gave the Mets a pulse before McNeil unloaded on a full-count changeup from Weaver to put the Mets ahead. If that wasn’t enough, McNeil’s lunging grab and throw to first on DJ LeMahieu’s one-hop bloop in the ninth prevented the Yankees from putting the tying run on base in what became a 1-2-3 inning."
Newsday: "Huascar Brazoban pitched a scoreless seventh and Garrett, who had a 15.00 ERA and three blown saves in his previous eight appearances, got the final six outs."
NY Daily News: "Seven weeks after he was booed relentlessly by Yankees fans during a rough weekend in the Bronx, the Mets slugger launched a two-run home run in Friday afternoon’s first inning as the interborough rivalry shifted to Citi Field...Soto went 3-for-4 and scored twice in the Mets’ 6-5 win over the Yankees, finishing a triple shy of the cycle against his former team."

Today in Mets History Per Ultimatemets.com:
Born on this date:
- Jeff Innis (1962)
- Dave Eiland (1966)
Transactions:
New York Mets signed free agent Cleon Jones on July 5, 1962.
New York Mets claimed Chris Schwinden on waivers from the New York Yankees on July 5, 2012.
1962 | The Mets sign 19-year-old outfielder Cleon Jones for $1,000, but the football and baseball collegian standout returns to Alabama A&M due to the lateness of the signing in the season. The Mets Hall of Famer, who spent a dozen seasons in New York, including the World Champion team, retires after playing for the White Sox in 1976. |
1987 | In a seven-player trade, the Giants swap southpaws Keith Comstock and Mark Davis, right-hander Mark Grant, and third baseman Chris Brown to the Padres for infielder/outfielder Kevin Mitchell and left-handers Dave Dravecky and Craig Lefferts. Mitchell, obtained by San Diego in an off-season blockbuster trade with the Mets, will be the NL's Most Valuable Player in 1989, helping the Giants to capture the circuit's pennant. |
2000 | Mets' right-handed reliever Eric Cammack triples in his only major league at-bat, joining Charlie Lindstrom (1958), Eduardo Rodriguez (1973), and Scott Munninghoff (1980) as the only players to accomplish this unlikely feat. The 24 year-old Nederland, Texas native, who will appear in only eight big-league games, all with the Amazins', legs out his three-bagger off Ron Mahay in the top of the ninth inning during the team's 11-2 loss to the Marlins at Pro Player Stadium. |
2014 | The Brooklyn Cyclones, attracting a sellout crowd of 8,241 fans at MCU Park in Coney Island, celebrate the 25th anniversary of the debut of Seinfeld, an iconic sitcom about nothing that initially ran for nine seasons on NBC, from 1989 to 1998. The tribute to the iconic television series includes players taking batting practice in puffy pirate shirts, a low-talker announcer, a 'Magic Loogie' bobblehead of Keith Hernandez giveaway, and renaming the foul poles the Festivus poles. |
1963 - With 2 outs and 2 strikes, Pirates right fielder Roberto Clemente lines a tie-breaking 2-run homer into the right field upper deck at the Polo Grounds, putting Pittsburgh ahead to stay, 3 - 1, against the New York Mets. While the shot is not a tape-measure one, it is remarkable that the pitch almost hit Clemente in the head. Maury Allen reports it thus: "'I was trying to waste a pitch', Tracy Stallard said. 'I figured if maybe I could get him to swing again at a pitch around his head.' So Stallard threw a real pitch to Clemente, the kind any human being hitter would duck away from and scream for the umpire. Naturally, Clemente hit it upstairs."
2010: Joey Votto, in competition for the last spot on the National League All-Star team, hits two solo home runs in the Reds' 8 - 6 win over the Mets. The game features the ejection of Mets manager Jerry Manuel, who complains over a ruling that Scott Rolen is hit by a Mike Pelfrey pitch with the bases loaded in the 5th, scoring the go-ahead run. Manuel argues that the ball tipped Rolen's bat, but is tossed when he tries to press his case. Drew Stubbs and Corky Miller follow with two-run hits each, then pitcher Travis Wood hits a triple to make it 7 - 1. The Mets counter with 5 runs of their own in the bottom of the frame, but never manage to catch up.
2011: It took a while, but Jason Bay is finally giving the Mets the production they have been waiting for since they signed him to a large contract before the 2010 season. Today, he hits two homers and drives in 4 runs as New York shuts out the Dodgers, 6 - 0, giving him a .347 average and 17 RBI in his last 18 games. Mike Pelfrey is the winner over Ted Lilly, with the help of three relievers.
