New York Mets (71-84) will look to complete a clean sweep against Philadelphia Phillies (85-70) at Citi Field on Sunday afternoon. The Mets won the series opener 6-3 on Friday before pounding the Phillies 10-3 yesterday. Rookie outfielder, Carson Benge, registered three hits, including a solo homer, yesterday. This means he has broken Pete Alonso’s rookie record of the highest hits in a season for the Mets (156). The Mets are the exciting +130 betting underdogs today.
Meanwhile, it’s hard to understate how much Philadelphia needs this match. They cannot afford to drop another winnable game, given their delicate standing in the wild card race. Yesterday’s defeat saw them drop behind Chicago Cubs and San Diego Padres, who both stand at 85-69. The worst part is that their assignment against the Mets is their cupcake series. They have a brutal schedule against the Brewers and the Rays coming up next week. The pressure is on them to win today.

Our New York Mets vs Philadelphia Phillies Prediction
The Phillies are in a precarious situation in this matchup. Anything less than a win could dampen their playoff chances with only six games to go. The head-to-head statistics also paint a grim picture for the Phillies, considering the Mets are 3-1 in their last four clashes. However, the starting pitchers should give the Phillies an edge. Christopher Sanchez has been impressive for the Phillies this year, going 17-6 with a solid 2.93 ERA. He offers more reliability compared to Jonah Tong of the Mets, who is 2-1 with a 3.43 ERA. But let’s note that Sanchez hasn’t been consistent lately, tallying an ERA of 5.06 in his last five assignments. Still, his overall campaign has been impressive. The Phillies should edge it today.
Our prediction for New York Mets vs Philadelphia Phillies: Philadelphia Phillies to win.
