 Since winning 14 straight against the Reds from September 2014-September 2016, the Mets have gone 9-8 vs. Cincinnati while splitting a four-game set at Citi Field from April 29-May 2. The teams combined to total just 18 runs in that series with both clubs batting .192.

 New York kept its playoff hopes alive with a 7-4 victory at Colorado on Wednesday and is 7-3 in is last 10 games with four consecutive series wins. The Mets have won 12 of their last 19 games, a stretch keyed by a starting rotation that has a 3.12 ERA with 119 strikeouts and 32 walks in 112.2 innings.

 After dropping two of three at Seattle, the Reds rebounded to win four of six at Arizona and Chicago. The Cubs had won five straight before Cincinnati limited them to four runs and nine hits over the final two games. Cincinnati's 72 wins is its best total since it went 76-86 in 2014.

 Since the All-Star break, Jacob deGrom, Friday's scheduled starter, ranks second in the NL in ERA (1.69), third in opponent average (.187) and third in strikeouts (101). He is 2-1 with a 1.74 ERA in five career starts against the Reds.

 Eugenio Suarez hit his 48th home run Wednesday, one behind the Mets' Pete Alonso for the MLB lead. Suarez set the record for most homers by a Venezuelan player, surpassing the 47 Andres Galarraga had in 1996. Suarez also tied the MLB record for HRs by a third baseman (Mike Schmidt, 1980 and Adrian Beltre, 2004).

 Alonso's 49th home run moved him within three of the rookie record, set by Aaron Judge in 2017. Alonso's 113 RBI are the most by a Met since 2008, when Carlos Delgado had 115 and David Wright tied the franchise record with 124. Alonso's RBI total ranks fourth in the modern era by an NL rookie in a single season.
