The New York Mets are putting together a strong 2025 season, and fans have a lot to look forward to. The schedule is filled with key matchups, exciting promotions, and games that could shape the playoff picture. Whether it’s rivalry games, community events, or divisional battles, this year’s lineup has something for every kind of fan.
This blog highlights the most anticipated Mets games of the season — from the Subway Series to the Little League Classic — and a few moments you’ll want to circle on your calendar.
Queens personal injury lawyers are proud to support the New York community, including the teams and traditions that bring people together. Baseball season is one of them.
Subway Series: Mets vs. Yankees
The Subway Series always brings extra intensity to the season. This year, both the Mets and Yankees are leading their divisions, which makes this rivalry even more important.
The first series takes place May 16–18 at Yankee Stadium, with the second round happening July 4–6 at Citi Field. Fans can expect a full crowd and playoff-level energy at both.
One of the biggest storylines this year is Juan Soto’s return to the Bronx — this time as a Met. His move across town adds a personal twist to an already competitive series. Every pitch, swing, and inning will matter.
Little League Classic: Mets vs. Mariners
The Mets will also be part of the 2025 MLB Little League Classic, a game that blends professional baseball with the spirit of youth sports. It takes place on August 17 at Journey Bank Ballpark in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, during the Little League World Series.
This isn’t your average game. The setting is smaller, the atmosphere is personal, and the goal is to connect with young fans. The Mets played in this event back in 2018, and they’re returning to give today’s Little Leaguers a night to remember.
The game airs nationally on ESPN’s “Sunday Night Baseball” at 7:00 p.m. ET.
Division Matchups That Matter
Games against NL East rivals like the Braves and Phillies will play a big role in shaping the postseason race.
Mets vs. Braves:
- June 23–26 at Citi Field
- August 22–24 at Truist Park
Mets vs. Phillies:
- August 25–27 at Citi Field
- September 8–11 at Citizens Bank Park
With the division standings close, every win counts. These games aren’t just important — they’ll likely decide who stays in the race and who falls behind. For fans, they’re also some of the most exciting games of the year.
Special Events and Promotions
Citi Field is offering more than just baseball this season. The Mets have scheduled a wide range of promotional nights and themed events that add something fun for every age group.
Some highlights include:
- The David Wright Number Retirement Ceremony, honoring one of the team’s most respected captains.
- Popular theme nights like Sesame Street Night, Pokémon GO Night, and Stranger Things Night.
- Giveaway games where fans can take home bobbleheads, replica jerseys, and other exclusive items.
One particularly meaningful event is the “Answer the Call” game, where kids of fallen first responders take the field for the ceremonial first pitch. It’s a moving tradition that highlights the Mets’ connection to the broader New York community.
Playoff Outlook and What’s Ahead
The Mets are in a good position, with balanced pitching and a solid lineup driving their success so far. Key players like Francisco Lindor, Pete Alonso, and Brandon Nimmo are keeping the offense moving, while the bullpen has helped close out tight games.
As the season moves toward fall, several other games will help determine their playoff chances. Matchups against teams like the Dodgers, Giants, and Brewers are especially important.
If the team keeps up its current pace, they have a strong shot at postseason play. And with a packed stadium behind them, their home advantage can’t be overstated.
Conclusion
This year’s Mets season is full of key matchups, special moments, and games that matter. From classic rivalries to heartwarming events, the 2025 schedule offers something meaningful for every fan.
So whether you’re heading to Citi Field or catching the game on TV, this is a season worth following closely.
