In a first for the NY Mets, the Amazin’s dealt the Yankees their fifth straight loss with their final win of this four game Subway Series to gain their first sweep of the Yankees since interleague play began.

Dillon Gee had his best game of the year, only giving up one run via solo shot by Robinson Cano in the third inning. Gee had a career high, 12 strike outs in 7 and a third innings work.

No one really expected the fourth place Mets to sweep the first place Yankees, but they did. The Yankees dropped to second place in the AL East, while the Mets are still in fourth in the NL East. Hopefully for the Mets, they can continue to win with games up against the worst team in the league, the Miami Marlins.

What Do You Do With Old, Worn Clothes?

Stop! Don’t throw away those torn jeans or warn hoodie, they can be recycled! It’s true. Goodwill will take textiles in any sort of condition. If after a while, the item isn’t sold, Goodwill contacts aftermarket textile recyclers who can use the clothing in a variety of ways. Whatever can be done to keep the clothes out of landfills, will be done!

So what happens to all of the unsellable textiles?

• 45% are sent to other countries as second-hand clothing
• 30% become wiping or polishing cloths
• 20% are turned into fibers for upholstery, insulation and furniture stuffing

SMART estimates that only 15 percent of all textiles are actually being recycled, which leaves around 11.1 million tons of textiles in landfills every year!

So next time you’re cleaning out your closest and find that old pair of paints that you don’t wear anymore drop them off at a goodwill or donation box!
