Mets begin another stale Subway Series with the Yankees
The New York Mets will, again, play the New York Yankees in yet another stale Subway Series lacking any true excitement.
In 1997, Major League Baseball introduced an exciting new concept: interleague play. I was thrilled with the idea back then. As a 10-year-old, it didn’t take much. Those were far simpler times. With interleague play, we got our first taste of the Subway Series featuring the New York Mets and New York Yankees. More than two decades later, the regular season action between these two Big Apple ball clubs continues and unfortunately, it’s a stale rivalry.
