Jeff McNeil, Francisco Lindor lead Mets to win in wake of rat controversy
NY Post
The Mets should fight more often — or do whatever it is Francisco Lindor and Jeff McNeil did Friday night. Maybe more players will give it a try. It’s hard to argue with the results.
The night after Lindor and McNeil were involved in some kind of an incident in the tunnel connecting the dugout to the clubhouse following a miscommunication in the field, the two helped the Mets equal their season-high win streak of four. McNeil and Lindor were responsible for all the offensive production Saturday night, while the Mets’ bullpen continued to excel in a 4-2 victory over the Diamondbacks in front of 7,908 at Citi Field.
SAN DIEGO — As you may have seen elsewhere in this newspaper (and also if you haven’t deleted me yet from your social media), I have a book coming out Tuesday called “The Bosses of The Bronx.” Much of it details the 37 years’ worth of antics, winning, losing, winning again and overall mania of George Steinbrenner’s time with the Yankees.

Cade Cunningham, almost inarguably the best player in the East this season, is likely out for the remainder of the regular season. That’s the word out of Detroit following the depressing news that Cunningham punctured a lung when he took a knee to his side Tuesday from Washington’s Tre Johnson while chasing a loose ball.

Wednesday was another positive day at Yankees camp. For the first time since March 6, 2025 — an outing in which he knew “something wasn’t right,” which began a weeks-long saga that ended on the operating table for Tommy John surgery — Gerrit Cole was back on a mound and facing hitters in game action.
