Coming off a frustrating spit of a four-game series in Miami, the Mets (51-48) are back in New York City for a two-game series against the Yankees (60-42) in The Bronx. It’s yet another edition of the Subway Series, which next year will feature six games instead of this year’s total of four.
Back in June, these teams played two games in Queens, both of which the Mets won as they scored nineteen runs across the pair of games to the Yankees’ nine. The Yankees are also coming off a split of a four-game series against a team from Florida, as they and the Rays each won twice in their series at Yankee Stadium coming out of the All-Star break.
