The 2024 London Series begins today as the Mets and Phillies open their two-game set at London Stadium, with Game 1 airing LIVE on FOX.
What should we expect from MLB’s third regular-season series to take place in London? If history is any teacher, plenty of runs. The Yankees and Red Sox combined for 50 runs across their two games in 2019. Four years later, the Cubs and Cardinals split their two games at London Stadium with scores of 9-1 and 7-5.
One thing is for sure: There will be a fair share of memorable moments authored by these NL East Rivals. Follow along throughout today’s game as we highlight the best of Game 1 of the 2024 London Series.
These games in London have traditionally been dominated by offense, but Phillies starter Ranger Suárez has been one of the game’s best at suppressing bats this season. The left-hander heads into today’s start with an MLB-best 1.70 ERA. He’ll be opposed by fellow southpaw Sean Manaea. He limited the Phils to one run over six innings at Citi Field on May 13.
Five key members from the Phillies’ 2008 World Series championship team — Ryan Howard, Jimmy Rollins, Carlos Ruiz, Shane Victorino and Chase Utley — have made the trip. (Utley didn’t have far to go, since he and his family actually moved to London.)
Mets owner Steve Cohen was shaking hands and taking pictures with fans in London.
Mets outfielder Brandon Nimmo has got his favorite British slang terms.
The Phillies are taking their hacks in the cage at London Stadium as the time for first pitch nears.
It has been fun to watch Ranger Suárez pitch this season. But what is it like to catch him? Phillies backstop J.T. Realmuto had high praise for the left-hander before today’s game.
