I would say that the Phillies have a better all-around team, but the Mets have a better fanbase. Mets fans are the most loyal fans in all of Baseball! Philly fans are very classless and are very immature. Mets fans are very loyal to their team, even when the Mets were averaging 100 loses a season! Yes, Phillies have a better team, but the Mets have the best fans in all of sports! LETS GO METS!
The Mets were 11-7 vs. the Phillies in 2008.
Phillies suck
The New York Mets had 11 wins and 7 losses against the Philadelphia Phillies in 2005.
NY Mets
According to Baseball Reference, through the 2008 season the Phillies franchise record is 8945-10098 and the Mets franchise record is 3585-3889. if you are looking to find out which team is better, you must factor in the fact that the phillies have been around for 125 years and just won their 2nd championship in 2008. and the mets have been around for 46 years and have 2 championships also.
Phillies, Mets/and Red Soxs
The 2007 Braves were 9-9 against both the Phillies and Mets for a combined record of 18-18.
To have a playoff offers more chances to sell tickets, beer, and air time. C'mon ... that's an easy one. -- In cases where one team makes the postseason and the other doesn't, baseball does not settle ties using best head-to-head record but rather through a one game tiebreaker. If however the only question is which team wins the division and which wins the Wild Card, best head to head record is used to determine the division winner. In 2008 the Mets have the better head to head record than the Phillies and they both finish with better records than the Brewers, the Mets would win the division based on better head to head record and the Phillies would take the Wild Card. If the Mets, Phillies, and Brewers all finish with the same record, the Mets and Phillies would play a one game tiebreaker for the division title, and then the loser would play the Brewers for the Wild Card.
