The Mets (58-57) will look for the series victory against the Phillies (64-51) tonight at Citi Field. Game time is 7:10 pm.

The lineup is as follows:

2. Angel Pagan RF
3. David Wright 3B
4. Carlos Beltran CF
5. Ike Davis 1B
6. Fernando Martinez LF
7. Josh Thole C
8. Ruben Tejada 2B

Pat Misch (11-4, 3.23 ERA for Buffalo) will start for the Mets. Misch is making his first start of the year for the Mets tonight, and he has had a very good season for Triple-A Buffalo so far this year. He was 3-4 with a 4.12 ERA in 22 games, and seven starts for the Mets in 2009.

Roy Halladay (14-8, 2.34 ERA) will start for the Phillies. Halladay struggled last Sunday against the Mets, allowing five runs in seven innings, but earned his 14th win of the year thanks to some help from the Philadelphia offense. He is making his third start of the year against the Mets tonight, and he’s 2-0 with a 2.81 ERA in 16 innings against them.
