The Mets (45-31) play the Philadelphia Phillies(46-30) Saturday at 7:15 p.m. on FOX.
Here’s what to know about the game and how to watch…
Mets Notes
- With Friday’s 10-2 series-opening loss, the Mets are on a season-long seven-game losing streak. New York suffered consecutive three-game sweeps in this past week’s sets against the Tampa Bay Rays and at the Atlanta Braves. Previously, the Mets’ longest skid of the season was three games between May 18-20 — losses at the Yankees (one) and Boston Red Sox (two).
- The Phillies have a one-game lead over the Mets in the National League East Division and are 8-2 in their past 10 games. New York, meanwhile, is 3-7 in its past 10 games. The Mets’ last win was a 4-3 victory against the Washington Nationals, which completed a series sweep and extended New York’s six-game streak. Earlier this season, the Mets swept the Phillies in a three-game set April 21-23.
- Right-handers Griffin Canning (6-3, 3.80 ERA) and Mick Abel (2-0, 2.21 ERA) are the probable pitchers for the series’ second game. Canning looks to get back on track after allowing a season-high six runs and five walks in this past Sunday’s 9-0 loss to the Rays.
