The Mets (93-55) will head to Wisconsin with clinching a postseason berth on their mind as they play three with the Brewers (78-68). The team’s magic number heading into Wisconsin is two, meaning one win in this series against Milwaukee will secure the team’s first trip to the postseason since 2016. The Mets took two of three when the two clubs faced off at Citi Field in June.
After getting swept by the Cubs, the Mets rebounded by sweeping the Pirates to finish off a winning homestand—something that did not feel possible after Wednesday’s defeat.
