First place in the NL East is on the line this weekend in Philadelphia, as the Mets and Phillies begin their three-game series on "Friday Night Baseball."
Zack Wheeler — a former Met — will toe the rubber on Friday for the Phillies, coming off six innings of one-run ball against the Blue Jays. Wheeler, 35, once again looks like one of the best pitchers in baseball, with a 2.76 ERA through 14 starts.
He'll contend with a Mets lineup that, while struggling, is nonetheless powerful. Juan Soto finally looks to be settling in after signing a record-breaking contract in the offseason. Soto entered play on Thursday hitting .315 with a 1.141 OPS in June.
New York is 3-0 against Philadelphia this season, having swept a three-game set at Citi Field in April.
