From DC to PHI; The Battle of the Broads
0From one fierce division rivals to the next, the Mets travel Northeast in their return to Pennsylvania, but this time to the City of Brotherly Love in Philadelphia, where they face the Phillies.
The Phillies have always been rivals with the Mets, but that hate for each other reached an all time high in 2007 and ’08.
Say what you want about only pinpointing two years, but this was much more than two competitive ball clubs; this was one city against another.
New York and Philadelphia will forever be enemies, but prior to the ’07 season, the two clubs never found themselves competing for the division down the stretch. When Jimmy Rollins proclaimed that the Phils were the team to beat before the start of the ’07 season, the proverbial powder keg had ignited, and a season long war was underway.
Rollins backed up his big talk winning the MVP, and watched the Mets collapse in September. The Mets dropped their last 8 matchups to the Phils, including a heartbreaking sweep at Shea Stadium in mid September. Rollins had cemented himself as the biggest villain in the history of the two franchises.
The following season, the Mets won 11 of 18 from their hated rivals, but ran out of gas by season’s end. The Phillies had done the unthinkable; sink the Mets in one of the largest collapses in baseball history, and edge them out again the following season in similar fashion.
These are some of the most painful memories for Mets fans, but it’s hard to discount the intensity of the games played, including seven in extra innings over the two years.
It’s was only a matter of time before these two cities have another baseball war, in the Battle of the Broads
