Jeff McNeil's clutch performance helped the New York Mets secure a thrilling 6-5 win over the Yankees in their Subway Series opener at Citi Field.

New York Mets second baseman Jeff McNeil robbed New York Yankees second baseman DJ LeMahieu of a hit, surprising even himself.

Left fielder Brandon Nimmo responded with a lead-off double. He was followed by right fielder Juan Soto, who was looking to exact revenge on his former team after an abysmal first go-around where he went 1-for-10 in the Bronx — and he did.
