The subway series will resume on Saturday with the New York Yankees looking for an equalizer after dropping a close loss to the Mets in Game 1 at Citi Field.
The Yankees will walk into Game 2 aiming not only a series-tying win but the end of a five-game losing skid. After losing four consecutive games to the Toronto Blue Jays, New York’s woes continued in Friday’s Game 1 as starter Marcus Stroman surrendered 3 earned runs in 5.0 innings and relief pitcher Luke Weaver gave up 2 more. Over the last five games, the Yankees are sporting a horrendous 9.00 ERA while allowing opponents to score more than 2 homers per game (2.4 homers).
The Mets extended their win streak to 3 games following Friday’s close win over the Yankees. The Mets, a team that is pitching a 3.51 ERA in this season, have carried a 5.73 ERA in their last five games. They have also batted .228 with 4.1 runs per game in this stretch.

Our New York Yankees vs New York Mets Prediction
Why should you bet on the OVER 9 Runs? (Win $100 on a $102 Bet) – the Mets and the Yankees average a combined 9.7 runs per game over their last five games. On Saturday, Mets’ Frankie Montas (7.45 ERA in their last five games) will face Yankees’ Carlos Rodon (4.33 ERA in their last five games). As you can see in their respective ERA in their most recent starts, both players are not pitching at a high level right now, especially Montas, who surrendered six runs in his last start vs. the Pirates. The total has gone OVER in 6 of NY Yankees' last 6 games and 6 of NY Mets' last 6 games against an opponent in the American League.
Our betting prediction for the New York Yankees vs. the New York Mets: Over 9.0 Runs.
