00:00Let's go to Citi Field for game three tonight between Philadelphia and New York.

00:09The Mets have played this incredible schedule constantly on the road.

00:13It feels like for two weeks they finally come back home tonight and it'll be Aaron Nola

00:18against Sean Mania.

00:19You look at the odds and what the odds are telling us, Matt, is that the Mets have a

00:23great shot to win tonight, right?

00:25Like a month ago, if I would have told you this was the pitching matchup, you would have

00:28said Phillies minus 150.

00:29But not the case.

00:30Mania has been really good in September.

00:33I expect another close game tonight.

00:35How about you?

00:36Yeah, I think so.

00:37I think, you know, the way it's trending right now favors the Mets.

00:40I thought the Phillies were one of the two or three best teams in the league all year.

00:45I mean, they certainly were based on record.

00:48And you get into this situation right now and it's a little bit like the Yankees.

00:52They got to just come through.

00:53They got the players, just come through.

00:55And the Mets are playing great baseball.

00:58I think they're playing very inspired baseball and the crowd's going to be electric.

01:03And another really fun atmosphere for postseason baseball.

01:05I mean, anytime, you know, both these NL series where you have rivals, division rivals going

01:10at it just makes for better games.

01:12But I think you're right in the sense that the Mets are trending in a more positive direction

01:15right now.

01:17And they're a tough out at home.

01:18I don't think there's any getting around that.
