The New York Mets and Los Angeles Dodgers both hit the field today with major implications for their division races. The Mets, currently sitting atop the NL East with a 40-24 record and a .625 winning percentage, look to extend their lead over the Phillies, who trail by.5 games. The Mets are coming off a strong 7-3 run in their last ten games and carry a one-game winning streak into today’s matchup against the Rockies in Colorado.
Meanwhile, the Dodgers remain in control of the NL West at 38-26, but their margin is slim. They lead the Padres by just one game and are looking to bounce back after a recent loss. The Dodgers head to St. Louis for a key series against the Cardinals, aiming to maintain their edge as the Giants and Padres close in.
Today’s games could shake up the standings for both teams. Mets fans will be watching closely to see if their team can hold onto first place, while Dodgers supporters hope for a rebound to keep their rivals at bay. With the season heating up, every score matters—and both clubs know it.
