Yankees defeat Mets in Subway Series opener as teams observe anniversary

The New York Yankees secured a 6-4 victory over the New York Mets at Yankee Stadium on Friday. Mets starter McLean allowed five runs over five innings in the loss. The game took place on the twenty-fifth anniversary of the September 11 attacks, with teams reflecting on the event's history in New York. The Mets made a roster move by recalling Jack Weisenburger from Syracuse and optioning Chris Devenski to the minors. Brett Baty remained sidelined with a knee injury but was available off the bench. Elsewhere, the Brewers and Rays both secured postseason berths, while the Phillies scratched Jesús Luzardo from his scheduled start due to shoulder stiffness.
