Mets maul Yankees, overcome negated homer to take both games at Stadium
It was never supposed to be this way in the final season at Yankee Stadium - Met fans hanging around at the end of the abbreviated two-game Subway Series set watching their team rout the hosts, making more noise than the subdued, disappointed Yankee faithful.
But this is quickly turning into a forgettable Yankee season, one in which a team that made a dynasty of taking advantage of breaks couldn't find a spark in an overturned Met home run in the fourth inning.

Even though the Mets still beat the Yankees, the MLB needs instant replays. Delgado's home run showed another example of why the MLB needs home runs. What if it was a close game? And the Mets lost, but would of won with the home run? Instant replays could be used for determining whether a ball is fair or foul, not for whether a ball is a strike or not. It may not be used that often, but its there if an umpire may need it. I just came across some interesting points on why the MLB should have an Instant Replay. And I hope they eventually do get an instant replay.
