Bragging rights for one night

The Mets gained the upper hand in this year's Subway Series by beating the Yankees 2-1 Monday. And with ace Matt Harvey going Tuesday, there is a chance the Mets could win two in a row against the Yanks. Considering the fact that the Mets are going nowhere, taking at least two games in a row from the Yanks this week would be a nice morale boost for the players and their fans.

By the way, the loss dropped the Yankees behind Boston in the race for the American League East lead. I don't expect that to last too long.
