Mets, Phillies return to action with doubleheader

Two heavy rain storms in the New York area will force the Mets to play a pair of doubleheaders during the final week of a disappointing season. The Mets will have to wait a couple more days to find out if their season will end with a far more unusual coda on Monday afternoon. New York is slated to play its second doubleheader in a 72-hour span on Saturday, when the Mets host the Philadelphia Phillies. Right-hander Tylor Megill (8-8, 4.92 ERA) and left-hander Jose Quintana (3-6, 3.39), who were scheduled to start for the Mets on Friday and Saturday, likely will pitch in some order for New York.
