Subway Series resumes tonight

Remember to check out our homepage my team rivals

The New York Mets, fresh off  a  horrendous  series  against the  Nationals,  take on  cross town  rivals the  New York  Yankees.

I would generally be far more excited for this subway series, but I am still a bit depressed over the Nationals disaster, as are most Mets fans....we will be fine by game time.

Tonights starting pitchers for the 7:05 contest at Yankee Stadium will be Johan Santana (4-2, 3.10ERA) vs Darrell Rasner (2-0, 3.00ERA).

New York Mets quick hits for 5/16, 5/17 and 5/18:

• the Mets and Yankees have met 168 times
• the Yankees hold a 98-69 lead with one tie
• the teams have met 60 times in the regular season, Yanks lead 35-25
• starting pitchers on 5/17 are Oliver Perez vs Andy Petit
• starting pitchers on 5/18 are John Maine vs Chen Mieng Wang
• Sundays game will be aired on ESPN's Sunday Night Baseball
