6/11/2012- Yankees sweep Mets, UFC on FX: Johnson vs McCall results, preview of WWE Raw

Hello everyone! I hope all of you had a great weekend! This past weekend was interleague play in the MLB, where the most notable game was the Subway Series. All I can say is for the Subway Series is that if you are a Mets fan, this was probably the worst weekend, but for the Yankees fans, it was a good weekend. More will be shared as you read along. Here we go!

MLB
Last weekend was the Subway Series where the Mets traveled to the Bronx to face the Yankees. Usually these series are all about bragging rights, but the stakes were much higher considering that both of these teams are vying for the top spot in their respective divisions. On Friday, the Yankees blew out the Mets, but on Saturday and Sunday, the Yankees came from behind to win these games. One of the moments from this weekend was Russell Martin rallying the Yankees towards a walk-off home run victory in the bottom of the 9th inning after Rafael Soriano blew the save at the top of the 9th.

Here's a link of the video: http://mlb.mlb.com/video/play.jsp?content_id=22188683&topic_id=&c_id=mlb&tcid=vpp_copy_22188683&v=3

Now that the first half of the Subway Series is over, it's time for a "You scratch my back, I'll scratch yours" moment for both the Mets and Yankees since the Yankees will face the Atlanta Braves (Mets division rival) this week, while the Mets will head to Tampa Bay to face the Rays (Yankees division rival) starting tomorrow.

UFC
Last Friday was UFC on FX 3, where the main event was between Demetrious Johnson and Ian McCall. Here are the results from the main card:
  • Eddie Wineland def Scott Jorgensen via KO at Round 2
  • Mike Pyle def Josh Neer via KO at Round 1
  • Erick Silva def Charlie Brennerman via submission at Round 1
  • Demetrious Johnson def Ian McCall via unanimous decision
WWE
Tonight is a 3-hour Monday Night Raw, where the WWE Chairman Vince McMahon will be giving John Laurinaitis a job evaluation.


Also, as of 4:39 PM today while writing this blog, I received a text message from WWE Alerts regarding the World Heavyweight Championship match. Here is what the text message said:

"BREAKING NEWS: Due to a concussion on SmackDown, Del Rio won't face World Champion Sheamus @ No Way Out. New #1 contender to be named on tonight's Raw (8/7 CT)".

That's all I have to say for now. Have a nice week!
