Offensively, the Mets were led by Francisco Lindor, who went 2-for-5 with a home run, a double and two stolen bases. The stolen bases gave him nine on the season, while the homer was his 10th, putting him in some rare history among shortstops.

It's been a tough week for New York Mets outfielder Juan Soto. Soto has been heavily criticized by the media for his perceived lack of hustle -- specifically on two plays; a check-swing groundout against the New York Yankees on Sunday night and a long single off the Green Monster against the Boston Red Sox on Monday.

When trying to decide who the best shortstop was in the first quarter of this 2000’s century, The Athletic’s Jayson Stark ended up in New York City with a tough choice. For his "All Quarter Century Team," the longtime MLB writer’s final choice was Derek Jeter — barely.

Francisco Lindor hit a tiebreaking sacrifice fly in the ninth inning and the Mets beat the Yankees 3-2 in the Subway Series on Saturday.
