The New York Mets will make a bit of unique history on Sunday as they are set to play a doubleheader against the Cleveland Guardians.
Saturday’s game was rained out, leading the team to schedule a split doubleheader for Sunday. The scheduled starters for New York will be Justin Verlander and Max Scherzer, both winners of multiple Cy Young awards.
In fact, according to Sarah Langs of MLB.com, this will make the Mets the first team to start pitchers who have each won at least three Cy Young awards in both sides of a doubleheader in MLB history.
