Heroes, zeros and the inside pitch from the Mets’ 12-6 win over the Yankees on Saturday afternoon in the Subway Series in Queens: Hero Pete Alonso homered twice, a two-run shot in the fifth

Pete Alonso homered twice and drove in five runs, Brandon Nimmo hit his second grand slam in four days and the New York Mets battered the reeling New York Yankees 12-6 on Saturday. Carlos Rodón (9-6) was roughed up as the Yankees equaled a season high with their sixth consecutive defeat.

The Mets look to extend their win streak to four in the second game of the Subway Series at 4:10 p.m. Saturday against the Yankees at Citi Field.
