While the Mets squeezed by the Yankees, 3-2, LeMahieu had himself a terrific afternoon on both sides of the ball. He squared up in all four at-bats, including an opposite-field home run to right in the second inning. LeMahieu also threw out Francisco Lindor from his knees behind second base in the seventh inning, snuffing out a Mets rally.

While the Yankees lost a thriller to the crosstown rival Mets on Saturday in the Bronx, veteran infielder DJ LeMahieu unexpectedly channeled his old reliable self at the plate and in the field.

LeMahieu hit his first home run since July and is performing well in the field and at the plate after finally getting healthy.
