After a particularly ugly two-game series against the Nationals, the Phillies will travel to New York for a four-game series against the first place Mets. With a five-game gap separating the teams, this could be an opportunity for the Phillies to finally get their act together and make up some ground.

New York Mets
Record: 38-31 (First place in National League East)
