Pitching Matchup
Kyle Gibson (2-1, 3.47 ERA) vs. Taijuan Walker (0-0, 0.00 ERA)
Kyle Gibson has been the surprise of the Phillies staff. The 34-year old has a 0.99 WHIP and has struck out 23 batters this season. Opposing teams are hitting a .198 off of Gibson this season.
Taijuan Walker makes his first start for the Mets since his April 11 appearence against the Phillies. Walker left that game after two innings due to shoulder irritation.
