With Homers and Accusations, Lindor Gives Subway Series a Big Finish

Three home runs by Francisco Lindor of the Mets, including a go-ahead shot in the eighth inning, would seem to be enough to qualify as a memorable Subway Series game.

But all anyone was talking about afterward was whistling.

As Lindor circled the bases after his second home run in the sixth inning, he made a whistling gesture as an allusion to accusations that the Yankees had been whistling in the dugout on Saturday to signal what pitches the Mets were throwing.

“I can’t accuse them of them whistling for the signs because I’m not 100 percent,” Lindor told reporters after the game.
