LOS ANGELES — Mets and Yankees fans can probably agree on one thing. Neither want to see Freddie Freeman up in a big spot. The former Braves star, who has tormented the Mets for years, had his first truly big swing against the Yankees on Friday night — and what…
This is as close to a Jeffrey Maier or Steve Bartman incident as you’re going to get. With two outs in the top of the ninth in Game 1 of the World Series on Friday night, Gleyber Torres smacked a ball deep to left field that appeared to be a…
The Dodgers head into Game 1 of the World Series with a question mark. Jack Flaherty is starting the opener Friday night, despite getting lit up in his last start in Game 5 of the National League Championship Series when he experienced a noticeable drop in velocity. That drop has…
