Mets will face Giants in Wild Card game Wednesday
The Giants beat out the Cardinals for the second Wild Card spot and will travel to play the Mets
The Mets will face the Giants in the Wild Card game on Wednesday night at Citi Field.
San Francisco clinched its spot with a 5-1 win over the Dodgers on Sunday, capping off a three-game sweep.
The Cardinals are leading the Pirates, but will finish a game behind the Giants if they close that game out.
This sets up a matchup between Noah Syndergaard and Madison Bumgarner in the do-or-die Wild Card game.
Bumgarner, who carried the Giants to the World Series title in 2014, will be on regular rest, as will Syndergaard.
