Soto reunited with former teammate Aaron Judge on Friday when the Mets hosted the Yankees at Citi Field for the Fourth of July matchup. It was the second series meeting between the two stars since Soto’s departure, and their brief interaction quickly became one of the game’s biggest talking points.

Neither the New York Yankees nor the New York Mets have been great in the last seven days. The Yankees were swept in a high-scoring four-game series by the Toronto Blue Jays, while the Mets are 2-4 in their last six games.

Juan Soto enacted his revenge on the Yankees with his 21st home run of the season, but it was a homegrown hero who put the Mets back on top for good in the bottom of the seventh, Jeff McNeil.
