Innings limit? What innings limit? Matt Harvey will get the start in Game 1 of the World Series on Tuesday night. (Getty)
It’s World Series time. Finally.
The New York Mets and Kansas City Royals square off in the first game of the Series on Tuesday night at Kauffman Stadium in a matchup that will end one squad’s long-time championship drought.
Matt Harvey will get the start for the Mets after earning wins in both of his previous two postseason starts. The right-hander notched 16 strikeouts while allowing just four runs in the playoffs and, despite his earlier innings-limit controversy, Harvey has shown no signs of slowing down.
Harvey will go up against a Kanas City lineup that has been hot this postseason. In fact, no team in baseball makes contact more often than the Royals. The team led all of baseball in contact rate during the regular season and rarely strikes out.
Game on? Game on.
Coverage for Game 1 gets underway at 7:30 p.m. ET on FOX while first pitch for the matchup is slated for 8:07 p.m. Not going to be near a TV? That’s totally fine. Here’s how to watch online and on mobile:
