Tonight, the Mets will be playing in Williamsport to settle the rubber game of this series with the Phillies. Jason Vargas will pitch for the Mets and teach those little leaguers how to be a Major Leaguer.

The Mets won 3-1 yesterday. Jacob deGrom gave up one unearned run in a complete game to lower his ERA to 1.71. He’s way better than Max Scherzer right now.
