The Phillies close out the regular season next week against MLB's top two teams, the Brewers and Rays, so this weekend's four-game series against the Mets is a prime opportunity to solidify their postseason status.
Philadelphia is in a decent spot, but the potential for a late stumble remains, especially with the Milwaukee and Tampa Bay series looming at Citizens Bank Park.
The Mets would like nothing more than to play a part in spoiling their rival's playoff hopes before jetting off for meaningless games at Texas and Washington to close the season. It's a tough task for New York, which just got swept at home by Pete Alonso and the Orioles, but strange things have been known to happen when these two get together.
Here's everything you need to know to watch Friday's game from Citi Field.
