The Yankees participated in Hondo’s deficit-reduction plan yesterday, unlike Bill Maher’s Mets, whose loss to Cincy bumped the dirty digits to 1,420 monbouquettes.

Today, what time is it? It’s Nova time — 10 units on the Yankees. Also, Mr. Aitch will throw another 10 on Quintana — that guy can pitch, man.

Mets fans failed to distinguish themselves Friday night when they booed Jason Bay as he left the game after crashing into the left-field wall. It must be the influence of new owner Bill Maher … Congrats to Nik Wallenda for completing his highwire walk over Niagara Falls. Good thing he didn’t fall and get hurt, or worse — Mets fans would have booed him.
