It’s a tale of two teams in the same city.
The New York Mets and Yankees are set to kick off their 2026 Subway Series, but they’re having seasons that couldn’t be more different.
As of now, Aaron Judge and the Yankees are near the top of the AL East, with the Rays leading the pack after sweeping the Brewers. Contrastingly, Juan Soto’s Mets find themselves at the bottom of the NL East.
Yet, regardless of their standings, nothing quite matches the thrill of watching these two New York teams face off live, making it a must-experience event.
If you’re interested in supporting the Mets at home or attending a Yankees game, the three-game Subway Series begins soon at Citi Field.
Friday, May 15th
7:15pm
Saturday, May 16th
7:15pm
Sunday, May 17th
1:40pm
Ticket prices start at $99, including fees, for the least expensive game.
The other two games have prices starting at $107 and $109, including fees.
If you’ve never been to one of these rivalry games, it’s worth noting what makes them so special, as pointed out by Mike Vaccaro from The Post. The energy from the fans really sets the tone.
“These Subway Series games are all about the fans. Mets fans proudly enter Yankee Stadium in their orange and blue, knowing they’ll face a tough crowd, while Yankees fans stay vigilant, ready to drown out any cheers with their own chants,” he remarked.
Mets fans—head for Flushing; see you on Route 7 to Willets.
