Marcus Stroman building Yankees playoff case despite ‘a couple mistakes’
The results suggested some progress, at least on paper. He pitched well in all but one of his starts in August, and in his most recent start, where he was unable to complete the fourth inning, he returned to his usual Marcus Stroman-like form, which was unusual for his late-season performance.

Mets’ playoff hopes increase tickets sales for likely historic September attendance
It finally happened in the bottom of the eighth inning in Queens on Wednesday, when Francisco Lindor stepped up to bat and the baseball crowd turned into a karaoke party.

Mets are employing winning formula of a playoff team
The Mets are playing like a postseason team, but they're still not in the playoff running. They won their seventh straight game Wednesday night with a barrage of talent — pitch after pitch, at-bat after at-bat, strong defense after strong at-bat and some superb, resourceful coaching from Carlos Mendoza.

In that respect, Monday's start at Citi Field will look a little different than other games, but the Mets right-hander knows there's little room for complacency as he treats each of his recent starts […]
