Mets Morning News: Mets sweep doubleheader as Steve Cohen moves towards purchase and league celebrates Jackie Robinson Day

The Mets began a five-game series against the Yankees with a seven-inning doubleheader yesterday and enjoyed two dramatic come-from-behind victories. Pete Alonso, Dominic Smith, and Jake Marisnick all homered in the sixth inning to lead the Amazins to a 6-4 win in the first matchup, while Amed Rosario hit a two-run walk-off home run in the bottom of the seventh in the second game.

After months of endless speculation and rumors, reports broke last night that Steve Cohen is entering exclusive negotiations to purchase the team.
