N EW YORK – The Queens edition of the Subway Series between the New York Mets and the New York Yankees included all the off-field gimmicks and silly jokes that were absent back in May when this matchup took place in the corporate setting of Yankee Stadium.

The New York Mets will square off with the New York Yankees in a huge interleague matchup at Citi Field on Saturday, scheduled to start at 4:10 p.m. ET. Frankie Montas (0-1, 6.00 ERA) will start on the mound for the Mets, pitting him against Carlos Rodón (9-5, 2.95 ERA) for the Yankees.

NEW YORK — Jeff McNeil hit a go-ahead, two-run homer off Luke Weaver in the seventh inning, leading the New York Mets over the Yankees 6-5 on Friday in a Subway Series opener between teams that faded badly after strong starts.
