The New York Mets could hardly have scripted a better finale to their two-game series against the New York Yankees Wednesday evening.
Buoyed by a six-run eighth inning, New York's younger squad exploded to a 12-3 win—a win that moved the Mets to 53-48 on the season ahead of a crucial four-game series against the Atlanta Braves.
Shortstop Francisco Lindor was the driving force, going 3-for-6 with two home runs and five RBIs in the rout. During the game, Lindor's wife Katia Reguero Lindor captured footage of her husband celebrating with their daughter during the game.
