The Mets Lose Game 6 Of The NLCS Against The LA Dodgers
Sorry, New York: that Subway Series isn’t happening…at least this year.
The Mets vs. Dodgers showdown ended in disappointment for East Coast baseball fans on Sunday, October 20th. Ultimately, the LA Dodgers beat the Amazin’ Mets 10-5 in game 6 of the NLCS to advance to the World Series, which is set to begin on Friday, October 25th at Dodger Stadium against non-other than the New York Yankees.
While we might not be getting the Subway Series we’d hoped for, we’re definitely in for an interesting baseball battle of the coasts. This is the first World Series matchup between the two teams since 1981. (The Dodgers won 4-2, so let’s hope we turn things around for New York 43 years later.)
As far as the Kings of Queens go, things became difficult for Mets pitcher Sean Manaea early on in the game after he gave up a two-run double to Tommy Edman and didn’t return after the third inning. Ultimately, the LA Dodgers’ offense was too powerful for the Mets to overcome.
This has been a particularly exciting season for the Mets, who have not won a World Series since 1986. While there was plenty of love for the Met’s unofficial mascot, Grimace, and even blue sandwiches at a local Queens deli in honor of the team’s success, unfortunately, their 2024 run came to a close midway through the NLCS. Now that the Yankees are World Series-bound and set to go up against the Dodgers, we’ll keep you posted on the schedule and everything else you need to know about the upcoming championship. We’ll cross our fingers for that Subway Series next year.
