New York Mets Top Atlanta Braves 9-7

The first time Brett Baty stepped on the field in the big leagues, he simply took a look around. Then came a moment he’ll remember for a lifetime.

Baty homered in his first major league at-bat, and the New York Mets held off the Atlanta Braves 9-7 to snap Atlanta’s eight-game winning streak.

After being outscored 18-1 in the first two games of the series, the NL East-leading Mets jumped to a 6-1 lead and barely made it stand up to push their advantage over the Braves back to 4 games. And Baty was partially to thank.

The 12th overall pick in the 2019 draft, he came up for the first time in the second inning with a runner aboard and the Mets already ahead 2-0 on back-to-back homers in the first off Jake Odorizzi. After taking a ball, Baty connected with a hanging curve on his very first swing in a New York uniform.

Strippers Pick Gennady Over Canelo

Bitter rivals Canelo Alvarez and Gennady Golovkin go head-to-head for a third time in boxing’s stunning trilogy clash on Saturday, September 17 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, broadcast live on DAZN and available to stream in over 200 countries across the globe.

Everyone is expecting a great fight, and both contestants have millions of fans. But Golovkin may have the edge when it comes to good-looking devotees. The exotic dancers who perform at the famous upscale gentlemen’s club Rick’s Cabaret New York, are clearly in his corner. 

“We’ve been rooting for Triple G since the first fight,” said Rick’s Cabaret New York girl Justine. “Gennady is one of the greatest fighters in the history of boxing.” 

“All the super-middleweight belts are on the line this Saturday, and Gennady will become the undisputed champ,” gushed Rick’s Cabaret girl Corinna. 

Okay, girls. I will bet on Triple G, and promise to visit you at Rick’s Cabaret (50 West 33 Street) to celebrate. Chill some champagne and hold one of the VIP rooms for me and my buddies. We’re going to make it rain! 

Aaron Judge Hits Number Fifty Three!

It seems clear now, the Yankees will go only as far as Aaron Judge will take them. 

The Yankees avoided a three-game sweep to the Rays, with a 2-1 win to snap a three-game losing streak, as Judge provided most of the offense with a homer and a double in front of a sell-out crowd of 25,025 at Tropicana Field. 

And the Yankees got a break to finish the game. With the Rays having scored a run and the potential winning run on second, Clay Holmes struck out Yandy Diaz looking on a pitch that appeared to be low. 

The Yankees got their lead in the AL East back to five games — and four in the loss column — over Tampa Bay, thanks in part to five shutout innings from Frankie Montas. 

“It does feel bigger,” Aaron Boone said after the Yankees avoided having their lead in the East cut to three games, which it hasn’t been since May 9. 

“With what we’re going through, to get a big, tough win on the road against a team we’re fighting with for the division is huge at this time of year,’’ Boone said.
