In the inaugural 2025 Subway Series, the Yankees triumphed over the Mets, with Cody Bellinger delivering a decisive grand slam in the eighth inning, leading to the Mets' largest defeat of the season. A significant moment in this game was an 11-pitch battle from pinch-hitter Jorbit Vivas against Ryne Stanek, who ultimately set the stage for Bellinger’s pivotal homer. The article delves into Vivas’ at-bat, illustrating the intense competition and strategic nuances of high-stakes baseball between two leading teams.
However, that moment does not happen if not for a less flashy but equally important moment earlier in the inning. Pinch-hitter Jorbit Vivas won an 11-pitch battle against the flame-throwing Ryne Stanek, an at-bat that Bellinger said "100 percent won [the Yankees] that game."
Vivas gets off a daddy hack looking to end the game with one swing. He's on time, but works underneath the baseball and fouls it back.
