Mets Seek Fifth Straight Win Against Marlins Tonight at Citi Field

NEW YORK, NY — The New York Mets are set to face the Miami Marlins tonight at 7:10 p.m. ET at Citi Field, aiming for their fifth consecutive victory.

After successfully sweeping the Toronto Blue Jays in their previous series, the Mets look to maintain momentum against the Marlins. The Mets have shown impressive form, culminating in a 2-1 win over Toronto on Sunday, with Pete Alonso leading the charge with a crucial go-ahead single in the third inning.

The Mets extended their winning streak to four games, marking their first series sweep against Toronto in 24 years, with the last occurrence dating back to July 2001 at Shea Stadium. Alonso now has 11 RBIs this season, demonstrating his vital role in the team’s offense.

David Peterson, who recently returned to the mound, expressed his struggles during the game against the Blue Jays, saying he felt “nauseous” while pitching. Despite that, the Mets’ bullpen performed remarkably, allowing just four hits throughout the game.

Tonight’s matchup will feature Mets’ right-hander Kodai Senga (0-1, 3.60 ERA) taking on Miami’s starter, whose identity remains unclear due to the potential for Sandy Alcantara to go on the paternity list following a rainout of Sunday’s game. The Mets enter with a -275 moneyline favorability against the Marlins on FanDuel, indicating strong confidence in their current form.

The game will air on SNY and will be available for streaming on various platforms. The Mets will aim to leverage their recent successful performances as they face the Marlins for the second time this season. The Mets defeated Miami 6-5 in their last meeting, further adding to their competitive spirit heading into tonight.

For those interested in placing bets on the game, there are multiple options available to navigate the betting landscape effectively.

As the season unfolds, this matchup promises to be another exciting chapter in the rivalry between these two teams, with fans eagerly watching to see if the Mets can continue their winning streak and secure another victory.
