NEW YORK, NY – AUGUST 03: Second baseman Neil Walker #20 of the New York Mets jumps to avoid a sliding Mark Teixeira #25 of the New York Yankees after throwing to first base to get Chase Headley #12 to complete the double pay in the fifth inning of a game at Yankee Stadium on August 3, 2016 in the Bronx borough of New York City.

The New York Yankees and New York Mets have had their fair share of dustups in the past, but what transpired in the Subway Series finale at Yankee Stadium on Wednesday night may be the laziest bench-clearing event of all-time.

After Mark Teixeira actually figured out how to hit a home run off a left-handed pitcher, that pitcher, Steven Matz, ended up putting one in the dirt and hitting Texeria in the shins on the very next at-bat for the switch-hitter.

It led to a ticked off Teixeira, and two sets of benches who apparently couldn’t be bothered with the events on the field. It was the slowest and most disinterested bench clearing of all-time.

I mean, neither bench went past its own baseline and both sets of bullpens barely made it out onto the field, let alone to the infield. Talk about disinterest.

However, Teixeira wasn’t done having some fun on the night. He also decided to get in the head of Mets relief pitcher Hansel Robles. After walking on just five pitches, Teixeira made his way to second base and Robles was none-too-happy about the big man apparently stealing some signs.
