For those of us old enough to remember, this surge by the Mets is reminiscent of that September charge down the stretch by New York that saw it storm into the playoffs, dust aside the Braves then shock the favored Orioles in the Fall Classic. The similarity has now seen them win 16 of 20 and has vaulted New York into one of the NL wild card spots, and about ready to blow past Arizona and move into the fifth seed. David Peterson also has been a reliable option on the mound, with a 2.22 ERA since the start of August, and the Mets recently having uncorked six straight wins during games in which he started. Meanwhile, though Christopher Sanchez has been rather effective in recent starts for the Phils, his road numbers have been far worse than his home numbers all season, with his away ERA at 5.13 and record at 3-6.
