Philadelphia Phillies: 5 Keys to Come on Down and Beat the Mets

The Phillies have an early three game series against the rival Mets starting tonight (Tuesday). The Phillies have gotten off to a scorching hot start (albeit against the lowly Astros) and they look to keep the good times rolling.

The Mets won their first series as well, taking two of three from the Marlins.

Here are the five keys to the Phillies vs. Mets series.
