Last Meeting ( Apr 17, 2026 ) NY Mets 4, Chi. Cubs 12
The Chicago Cubs have a chance Saturday to do something they have achieved only twice since 1900.
The New York Mets can only hope they don't inch closer to yet another bit of ignoble history.
The Cubs will look to remain red-hot Saturday afternoon when they host the free-falling Mets in the middle contest of a three-game series.
Jameson Taillon (0-1, 4.86 ERA) is slated to start for the Cubs against Freddy Peralta (1-1, 3.86) in a battle of right-handers.
The Cubs and Mets continued going in opposite directions Friday afternoon, when Moises Ballesteros hit a three-run homer to cap a four-run first-inning outburst that sparked Chicago to a 12-4 rout.
The win was the third straight for the Cubs, who have collected 10-plus runs in each of those games while outscoring the Mets and Philadelphia Phillies 33-10. Chicago last scored at least 10 runs in three straight games from Sept. 13-15, 2019, when the Cubs outscored the visiting Pittsburgh Pirates 47-15 in a sweep.
The Cubs have scored at least 10 runs in at least four straight games twice in the past 126 years -- first in a five-game stretch from June 1-6, 1930, and then in a four-game stretch from June 28-July 1, 2018.
"That number of runs, it means there's a lot of people doing good things," Cubs manager Craig Counsell said. "One of the strengths of our team should be just the length of our lineup and just being able to get production everywhere in the lineup."
The only solace for the Mets as they try to snap a nine-game losing streak is the fact the Cubs were slumping prior to their breakout. Chicago scored 73 runs in its first 16 games, during which it scored one run or none four times.
The Mets have been outscored 56-16 during their skid -- the longest for the club since an 11-game losing streak from Aug. 28-Sept. 8, 2004. New York hasn't lost more than 11 straight since dropping 12 in a row from Aug. 10-23, 2002.
The four runs the Mets scored Friday marked just the second time they scored more than two runs during the tailspin. They haven't led at the end of an inning since the first inning of an 11-6 loss to the Athletics on April 11 -- a span of 53 frames.
"We have got to be able to put a consistent game here where we're clicking our best -- with starters, playing defense, offensively," Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said. "That has got to start."
Despite the skid, Mendoza's job apparently isn't in jeopardy. President of baseball operations David Stearns said before the Friday defeat, "I think Mendy's doing a really good job. I think he's putting our players in a position to succeed. He's enormously consistent."
Peralta took the loss in his most recent start, when he allowed one run over six innings as the Mets fell to the Athletics 1-0 on Sunday. He is 9-3 with a 3.21 ERA in 22 career games (17 starts) against the Cubs.
Taillon didn't factor into the decision on Sunday after giving up six runs over six innings in the Cubs' 7-6 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates. He served up three homers and walked two but struck out 10.
Taillon is 4-1 with a 2.78 ERA in seven lifetime starts against the Mets.
