The 26-20 New York Mets will play the second out of a three-game set against the 19-36 Arizona Diamondbacks. After winning their fifth straight on Memorial Day Monday, the Mets look to keep the momentum going on Tuesday.

The Mets plan to send their hometown kid Marcus Stroman to the hill, making his eleventh appearance of the season. The Medford, New York native is 4-4 with a 2.47 ERA with 46 K’s in 58.1 innings pitched.

Stroman is coming off of a start in which he tossed six innings, while giving up three hits and not allowing any runs.

The Arizona Diamondbacks will have 29-year old Caleb Smith on the mound, a veteran left-hander making his 20th appearance of the campaign. Smith’s last outing was against the St. Louis Cardinals ,however the lefty appeared out of the bullpen. This will only be Smith’s second start of the year.

First pitch is scheduled for 9:40 PM EST and will be televised locally on SNY.
