Early celebratory fireworks for the Mets as they win game one of their doubleheader against the Yankees 10-5.

The Mets opened the seven-inning exhibition with a little help from Yankee stadium’s dimensions. Dominic Smith‘s hot streak continued with a solo home run off Gerrit Cole. Smith’s ninth homer of the year traveled 368 feet to right field.

Marcus Stroman returned to the Mets Sunday. The righty started well getting the Yankees opening three batters out. Stroman’s second wasn’t as smooth.

Giancarlo Stanton led off the bottom of the second with a single. Gio Urshela reached on a fielder’s choice after a fielding error by Francisco Lindor. Both runners were safe on a would-be double-play ball. Gleyber Torres grounded into a force-out, putting runners on the corners. Brett Gardner was hit by a pitch to load the bases. Kyle Higashioka doubled scoring two, and Tim Locastro hit a sacrifice fly to bring the third runner across home in the inning.

The Yankees tacked on their fourth run in the third. Aaron Judge and Luke Voit singled to put runners on the corners again. Stanton hit into a double play allowing Judge to score.

The Mets responded in the fourth. Michael Conforto walked, Jeff McNeil singled, and Billy McKinney walked to load the bases for Tomas Nido. Nido singled to right, advancing each runner up a base with Conforto scoring. Luis Guillorme struck out for the first out.

Brandon Nimmo singled to right field, scoring McNeil. Each runner advanced a single base. Yankees manager Aaron Boone pulled Cole.

It was Cole’s shortest outing as a Yankee. Cole has allowed as many earned runs in his last two starts as Jacob deGrom has all season.

Francisco Lindor singled against reliever Jonathan Loaisiga to keep the rally going. Nimmo was out at second base after making an error on the base paths. Judge threw behind Nimmo who took a wide turn toward third and was unable to get back in time.

Smith walked to load the bases with two outs for Pete Alonso. Alonso laid off the first pitch and hit a chopper back to the pitcher for the final out.

The Yankees retook the lead in the fifth off two singles and a wild pitch. DJ LeMahieu singled with one out and advanced to third on a single by Judge. The ball slipped from Stroman’s control and ran toward the head of Luke Voit. Nido had no chance to catch it as the ball went to the backstop with LeMahieu scurrying in for the go-ahead run. Voit and Stanton would each fly out to end the inning.

Stroman’s day was done after five innings. Three of the five runs were earned. He failed to strike out a batter.

The Mets threatened in the sixth. Smith was up with two on and two out against Chad Green. Green entered for Loaisiga to face Smith. Smith fouled off Green’s first-pitch fastball but popped out on the next pitch to leave the runners stranded.

Jeurys Familia dazzled in relief again. He sat down three straight batters after allowing a first-pitch single to Urshela. Two Yankees struck out.

Boone went to his struggling closer for the seventh inning. Aroldis Chapman, who allowed runs to cross in three of his last four appearances, entered. He allowed the first grand slam of his career on Thursday night against the Angels.

Chapman’s first batter was Alonso and the Mets slugger launched a slider 406 feet to left-center. The game was now tied and Chapman had blown another save.

Chapman nailed Conforto with a 100 mile per hour fastball. McNeil worked a walk in an eight-pitch at-bat where he attempted to bunt.

Chapman walked himself off the field to the boos of Yankees fans and cheers of Mets fans.

Lucas Luetge entered. Kevin Pillar pinch-hit for McKinney. Pillar blooped a single to left field. The Mets had bases loaded with no outs for pinch-hitter James McCann. McCann struck out. Jose Peraza pinch hit for Luis Guillorme.

Peraza lined a ball deep to the left-field corner that was caught by a Mets fan leaning over the fence. The umpires ruled it a double and New York took the lead 7-5.

Nimmo kept the rally going with a two-run single to make it 9-5. He advanced to second on the throw. Lindor drove in Nimmo on the first pitch he saw to make it 10-5.

Seth Lugo pitched a quick seventh inning. Game two of the doubleheader is scheduled to start at 7:10 p.m.
