The Yankees were one out away from their eighth loss in nine games when they erupted for five runs in the bottom of the seventh to tie the game and won it in the eighth in the first game of Friday’s doubleheader in The Bronx. Gio Urshela’s two-out single off Edwin Diaz drove in Mike …

It’s hard to top a five-run rally when you’re down to your last out, but Deivi Garcia and the Yankees came close when they finished off a sweep of Sunday’s doubleheader against the Mets. The Yankees followed up their 8-7, eight-inning win with a 5-2, eight-inning victory in the nightcap behind six dazzling innings from …

The Mets are focused on trying to upgrade their catching before the trade deadline expires Monday at 4 p.m. They have, for example, talked to the Angels about Jason Castro.

A day after the Yankees suffered a walk-off loss to the Mets in their own stadium, they ended a seven-game losing streak when they won it in the bottom of the ninth.

Cash won — for now. Steve Cohen once again has entered into exclusive negotiations to buy the Mets. He always had two advantages in this process: Motivation and money. He grew up a Mets fan and wanted this team. He already had it slip away once. The fact he won negotiating rights when the Wilpons …

The Mets made themselves right at home at Yankee Stadium on Friday. They won both ends of a doubleheader against the Yankees and look to be on their way to getting a deep-pocketed owner.
