New York Mets (45-35) at Washington Nationals (35-46) 4:10 pm
R.A. Dickey (6-1 2.98) vs Stephen Strasburg (2-2 2.27)
TV: FOX Radio: WFAN
What to watch: This is an odd pitching match-up. I have to admit that I can’t wait to see Strasburg this afternoon. It’s not surprising that Fox picked up this game. The young phenom has been drawing crowds wherever he goes. I bet the TV ratings will be relatively good for a summer afternoon on a holiday weekend. Dickey had his first loss and really bad start against the Marlins on Monday. This is where we’ll start to see if his first six wins were a mirage or not.
