Nothing’s more patriotic than baseball during July 4th weekend, and the baseball gods lined up a New York beauty—Yankees vs Mets . The two beloved New York franchises will play three games this weekend of the famed “Subway Series ” tradition on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday at the Mets’ home of Citi Field in Queens ! Both the Yankees and Mets have been on a bit of a slide going into the matchup this weekend, with the Yankees riding a three game losing streak heading into Thursday’s game, and the Mets going 3-7 in their last 10, and relinquishing a pretty hefty NL East top spot that they had about a month ago. Nonetheless, the city’s two teams will duke it out on the diamond, and we can’t wait to watch the crosstown rivalry.

Trains will run every 2–4 minutes before the game , and after the final pitch, extra Manhattan-bound service will run express to 61 St-Woodside before making local stops to 34 St-Hudson Yards (note: trains skip 69 St and 52 St due to construction). You can also hop on the Q90 bus , which stops steps from the stadium. Fans traveling from Manhattan or Long Island can take the LIRR (Port Washington Branch) directly to Mets-Willets Point . It’s just 19 minutes from Penn Station or Grand Central Madison. Riders on other LIRR lines can transfer at Woodside. Fans coming from the Bronx, Connecticut, or the Hudson Valley can take Metro-North to Grand Central and transfer to the 7 train or LIRR to reach the stadium.
