Jeff McNeil gets ejected after blowing up at umpire as Mets infielder’s frustrations boil over
NY Post
In the midst of a six-game losing streak and beginning a seventh game with a six-run deficit, the Mets’ frustrations were showing.
Jeff McNeil was ejected from Friday’s game at Citi Field against the Rangers after erupting following a called strike three.
Facing Jacob deGrom in the fourth inning of a game the Mets trailed, 6-3, McNeil worked back from an 0-2 hole and forced a full count.
DeGrom threw a four-seamer that was at McNeil’s knees, which he believed to be low.
He flipped his bat away and took a leap toward first base, expecting a walk, and then let out a yell as he learned he had been punched out.
From a distance he said something to home-plate umpire Scott Barry, who immediately tossed the Mets second baseman.
The Mets introduced a high-powered reliever who is aware there is another looming.
If we’re taking Leon Rose at his press-release words — which represents his only form of public communication these days — then the Knicks absolutely have to blitz for Giannis Antetokounmpo.
The alliance between the Mara Family and the Tisch Family has, by and large, been the gold standard for all such partnership agreements. From the moment Wellington Mara and Robert Tisch entered into their 50-50 arrangement at the top of the Giants’ organizational flow chart on Feb. 21, 1991, this has been a model affiliation.
Cody Bellinger remains the Yankees’ No. 1 target, and while they aren’t necessarily close to a deal, they are making a big effort.
It wouldn’t be an NFL week if there weren’t some sort of controversy.
The Knicks have time to think. Giannis Antetokounmpo isn’t going anywhere just yet.
OTTAWA, Ontario — When the Rangers bench asked for the puck Artemi Panarin had just shot into an empty-net to secure a 4-2 victory for the Rangers over the Senators on Thursday night at Canadian Tire Center, the star Russian wing turned around and asked why.
The Knicks got a significant injury boost with OG Anunoby.
Brock Nelson got his standing ovation.
The Red Sox traded one of their top prospects to the Pirates to help boost their rotation as part of a five-player trade Thursday night.
As we arrive at the final five weeks of the NFL regular season, the quarterback market for 2026 continues to take shape.
Tyler Kolek is getting his opportunity as the backup point guard and, frankly, it’s not going well.
Less than two weeks removed from being a point away from the bottom of the Eastern Conference, the Rangers appear to be surging again, winning four of their past five games heading into Thursday’s match at Ottawa.
