It may not be the Subway Series that Mets fans were hoping for, but there are still reasons for baseball fans here to cheer, because when the Yankees play the Los Angeles Dodgers in game two of the World Series on Saturday night, the East Hampton Village Foundation will close Newtown Lane for a block party starting at 5.

A big screen will be set up in the middle of the street and downtown eateries, including Cittanuova, Sam’s, Fierro’s Pizza, the Golden Pear, St. Ambroeus, and Smokey Buns, will serve patrons at outdoor tables.
