Though it’s not free, you can also watch SNY live with its new in-market streaming package offered through MLB.tv. For $24.99/month (or $124.99/year), subscribers in the NY area will be able to stream every Mets game that airs on SNY. For die-hard Mets fans, this may be well worth the investment.

The first game of the annual regular season event coincides with a crucial Friday night Knicks playoff game against the Celtics.

Juan Soto had a quiet night with three walks, a groundout and a flyout in his return to the Bronx, Carlos Rodón won his fourth straight decision and the New York Yankees beat the Mets 6-2 in the first of six Subway Series games this season.
