Phillies at Mets – Friday Lineups, Odds, Pitchers, Broadcast Info

The Mets open a huge weekend set against the Phillies at Citi Field.

It’s been a long week for the New York Mets.

After an emotional weekend set that saw the Mets take two of three from the Yankees, the Mets were swept at home by the Cardinals, putting their playoff prayers in a precarious position.

Those same Cardinals have sprinted into the lead for the second wild card spot in the National League, now five full games ahead of the Mets.

One of the teams the Mets will need to jump to make it into the dance is Philadelphia, who happen to be in town for the weekend.

If the Mets want to play ball in October, they need to win this weekend.
