Subway Series kicks off at Yankee Stadium tonight

Mets fans will be eschewing the No. 7 train for the No. 4 and the D to the Bronx this weekend.

The Mets face off with their cross-town rivals the New York Yankees in the annual Subway Series.

Johan Santana returns to the mound for the first time tonight since tossing the franchise’s first no-hitter on June 1. He will face off against Hiroki Kuroda.

Saturday’s match up pits Dillon Gee against Phil Hughes and Sunday Jon Niese takes on Andy Pettitte.

The Yankees took four out of six games against the Mets last year.

The Subway Series returns to Citi Field on June 22 for another three-game set.
