N EW YORK – The Queens edition of the Subway Series between the New York Mets and the New York Yankees included all the off-field gimmicks and silly jokes that were absent back in May when this matchup took place in the corporate setting of Yankee Stadium.

The Yankees, who snapped their six-game skid in the series finale, have six games remaining before the All-Star Game.

On Sunday afternoon, the Yankees won. The Mets lost. The result, however, didn’t do much to change the tenor of the weekend for either team. It was a positive three days for the Mets, and a concerning trip to Queens for the skidding Yankees.
