Overview

  • The Mets beat the Yankees 7-6 in 10 innings at Citi Field on Sunday, with Tyrone Taylor tying it on a two-out, three-run homer off closer David Bednar and Carson Benge’s infield bouncer producing the winning run.
  • The comeback broke a run of 91 straight Mets defeats when trailing after eight innings, a skid that stretched back to the 2024 postseason.
  • The series win gave the Mets two of three, and the Yankees ended a 2–7 road trip defined by missed chances and a blown ninth-inning lead.
  • On Saturday, Luke Weaver escaped a bases-loaded, no-outs jam and Mark Vientos drove in three runs in a 6-3 victory that set up the rubber game.
  • The surge came two days after the Mets placed pitcher Clay Holmes on the injured list with a fractured leg that is expected to sideline him for about 6–8 weeks, triggering roster shuffles and rotation planning.
