Mets vs Nationals Might Play In London Next Season

by Darren Meenan February 11, 2019

Mets fans have been waiting a while for this, what's one more year? Word is that MLB is deciding between Mets/Nationals and Cubs/Cardinals for a London series in 2020.

The Yankees and Sox are playing a series this coming June, so we'll see how the trial run goes. This will be the European debut for Major League Baseball. Let them work out any kinks for 2020.

Mets fans are global, and many make the trip to NY to cheer the boys in orange and blue. Having the Mets come to them would be quite the treat.

London Stadium seats 66,000 and I'd gamble we'd need at least 4,000 of those for The 7 Line Army. There is a solid contingent of Mets fans already across the pond, and a destination game would be an insane amount of fun.

Not sure how it'll work as far as who would be selling the tickets, but trust that I'll be on it the second news drops. Word is MLB will make the decision around Opening Day.

Fingers crossed that league makes the right choice. London is calling, and The 7 Line Army is more than ready to answer.
