- Mets 3 Yankees 1: It’s clear that Oliver Perez needs to make all his starts against the Yankees. Back in May, Perez dominated the Yankees at Yankee Stadium, Sunday it was another dominating performance, this time at Shea. Perez allowed only three hits over seven innings while striking out 8.
Another Met who will be sorry to see the Subway Series end is Carlos Delgado. Delgado hit his third home run of the series, a shot that put the Mets up 2-0. The Mets added a run in the sixth thanks to a wild pitch, but the Yankees cut it to 3-1 when Wilson Betemit hit a bomb to left. The Yankees threatened in the ninth when Jeter got on base and A-Rod hit a deep fly to left, but it stayed in the park and Billy Wagner took care of business after that, setting down the Yankees for his 18th save.
