Mets face off with defending World Series champs
Photo by Carmen Mandato/Getty ImagesThey say everything’s bigger in Texas, but the Mets (33-38) will hope that doesn’t mean the disappointment’s bigger there as well as they square off with the defending World Series champion Astros (39-33). The Mets faced Houston last year and were swept in two separate two-game sets. The Mets have lost seven straight overall to the Astros, who also swept them at Minute Maid Park in 2017. You have to go back to September 28, 2014 to find the last time the Mets won a game against the Astros.
