For the second-straight year, Major League Baseball is set to play in front of a UK crowd, after last-year’s two-game clash between the St. Louis Cardinals and Chicago Cubs. Now, the Mets and Phillies will headline the weekend, and another series in London is slated for 2026.
The New York Mets are fresh off a big boost thanks to their three-game sweep of another division rival, the Washington Nationals. The Mets put on a dominant 9-1 performance to close out the series on Wednesday night, with Luis Torrens smashing two homers in a game for the second time in his career and Francisco Lindor adding a solo shot to help run up the score.
The Phillies still dominate the National League, with a hard-hitting offense featuring Kyle Schwarber and Bryce Harper helping them rack up a 44-19 record for the season so far. Philadelphia is also fresh off a three-game sweep of the Milwaukee Brewers.
