New York Mets Three Game Sweep Over Pittsburgh Pirates

The Mets offense broke out for nine runs to defeat the Pirates 9-1 and finish off a series sweep of Pittsburgh. Tyrone Taylor led the charge with three hits while both Starling Marte and Harrison Bader went deep. 

The Mets pitching was again solid which started with Luis Severino. He gave up one run in six innings and the bullpen handled the rest.

“We mixed some two-seamers in there to get some double plays and I think that helped,” Severino said.

For Severino, who lowered his ERA to 2.14, it was a third straight start of allowing one earned run or less. On this day he got the win — his first in a Mets uniform.

The win finished off a 5-1 homestand as the team now heads to Los Angeles to take on the Dodgers.

New York Yankees Sweep Cleveland Guardians 

The Yankees have made a habit of playing close games early on this season, including the first half of Saturday’s doubleheader when their bullpen had to walk a tightrope for a one-run win over the Guardians.

But they turned on cruise control in the nightcap.

After Oswaldo Cabrera’s two-run homer lifted them to a 3-2 win in Game 1, the Yankees scored early and often in Game 2 to support an impressive spot start from right-hander Cody Poteet for an 8-2 win, sweeping the doubleheader at Progressive Field.

“Not an easy thing to do,” manager Aaron Boone said. “Especially when you spend the whole day here and the split doubleheader, to walk out of here with two wins is definitely nice, with an opportunity to have a great weekend Sunday.”

With the sweep of the Guardians (9-5), the Yankees improved to 12-3, matching the best start in franchise history through 15 games. 

Juan Soto delivered a three-run homer to help break the nightcap open in the fourth inning and Cabrera added an RBI double in the fifth as he takes over everyday third-base duties with Jon Berti landing on the IL.

The Yankees pounded out 19 hits and drew 15 walks between the two games, with their relentless offensive approach ensuring neither Guardians starter (Carlos Carrasco or Triston McKenzie) made it through the fifth inning.
