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.

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

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.
