I don't care if the Yankees are a better team than the Mets. All I can say is SWEEP! SWEEP! SWEEP!

The surprising Mets took four of six from their crosstown rivals this year after going 0-6 in 2003. It’s the first time they’ve won the season series since interleague play began in 1997.

As Braden Looper got the last three outs in the ninth, Mets fans among the sellout crowd of 55,437 chanted “Sweep! Sweep!” That surely wasn’t the present Yankees owner George Steinbrenner was hoping for on his 74th birthday.
