The New York Mets were one good throw away from potentially sending their Sunday night game against the New York Yankees to the top of the ninth inning tied. Instead, first baseman Pete Alonso air-mailed an attempted play at home plate,

It was an error by Mets first baseman Pete Alonso that opened the floodgates for the Yankees. With one out and runners on second and third, Alonso fielded a grounder from Jorbit Vivas and threw home.

The booing never let up for Mets right fielder Juan Soto, who was left without a big moment in the hostile confines of Yankee Stadium. Instead, Queens’s $765 million man was a no-show in Game 3 of the Subway Series,

The Met s have released outfielder Billy McKinney from his minor league contract, according to multiple reports. McKinney has signed a deal with the Mets in March and spent the last couple of months with Triple-A Syracuse.

Cody Bellinger lofted a high fly to deep right field, where Juan Soto positioned himself in front of an unfriendly Yankee Stadium crowd and came up short.

The two New York teams split the first two games of the weekend series. The third and final game on Sunday night will be nationally televised.
