It’s Subway Series time. That’s always a big deal, especially now that the Mets are good. Bragging rights are on the line — apparently Mets fans are trying to “take back” the city? What’s that about? — and all that fun stuff. These series are always fun. I have a lot of Mets fans in my family. I enjoyed rubbing it in when the Yankees won two of three back in April.
Anyway, these games are extremely important for the Yankees. Moreso than the Mets, who have a huge lead on the Nationals. The Yankee are still trying to catch the Blue Jays while also maintaining their lead on the first wildcard spot. Mets, Blue Jays, Red Sox, Mariners, Padres … these games are huge regardless who the Yankees are playing this weekend. They need all the wins they can get. Here is the Mets’ lineup and here is the Yankees’ lineup:
- CF Brett Gardner
- 3B Chase Headley
- RF Carlos Beltran
- LF Chris Young
- 1B Greg Bird
- C John Ryan Murphy
- SS Didi Gregorius
- 2B Brendan Ryan
- RHP Masahiro Tanaka
Very nice day in New York. Sunny, few clouds, and on the cool side. Nice night for a ballpark. Tonight’s game will begin at 7:10pm ET and you can watch on both YES and WPIX locally as well as MLB Network nationally. Enjoy the game.
