The New York Mets go for a second straight win on Wednesday night when they host the Chicago Cubs.
The New York Mets battle the Chicago Cubs on Wednesday night in the third game of a four-game set. The Mets gave away a late lead in the opener on Monday night, but they bounced back on Tuesday night to even the series with a 4-2 win. DJ Stewart hit a three-run home run in the sixth to break a 1-1 tie and put the Mets in the lead for good. The win helped them even the series, but was just their third win in the last nine games.
Wednesday they will look to make it two in a row and clinch at least a series tie when they send Jose Butto to the mound. Butto is still searching for his first win of the season as he comes into the game 0-1 with a 2.86 ERA. The Mets lost his last start, but have won three of four this season.
