Juan Soto's return to Yankee Stadium on Friday was marked by intense boos and hostile chants from Yankees fans, who remembered his decision to leave the team for the Mets with a record-breaking 15-year, $765 million contract. Soto, formerly a Yankees star, received jeers and signs mocking his departure, including chants of 'F--- Juan Soto!' and other profanities throughout the game. Despite the crowd's hostility, Soto remained professional, finishing 0-for-2 with three walks. The Mets lost to the Yankees 6-2, with the Yankees' new acquisitions Paul Goldschmidt and Cody Bellinger contributing significantly to the victory. Goldschmidt drove in two runs and made a notable catch, while Bellinger had three hits and scored twice. The Yankees' lineup, supported by strong pitching from Carlos Rodón, who limited the Mets to one run over five innings, outperformed the Mets despite Soto's efforts. Fans also expressed their frustrations with Soto through signs and chants, highlighting the emotional rivalry between the two teams. The game underscored the ongoing tension in New York baseball, with the Yankees outshining their crosstown rivals and Soto facing a hostile reception in his former home.
