Subway Series continues this weekend when the New York Mets host the crosstown rival New York Yankees for three games at Citi Field. It is potentially a World Series preview, though neither team has looked the part of a World Series contender the last 3-4 weeks.

In the top of the ninth inning Friday at Citi Field, Jeff McNeil splayed himself onto the outfield grass, belly flopping in an attempt not only to save a hit, but to keep Aaron Judge out of the batter’s box one last time.

The Mets beat the Yankees 6-5 on Friday in a Subway Series opener between teams that faded badly after strong starts.
