The Chicago Cubs host the New York Mets in a thrilling MLB matchup on June 21, 2024, at 2:20 pm ET.
The Cubs fail to consistently score runs when compared to other teams; they rank 21st in runs scored per game (4.14). In terms of hits per game, they are ranked 26th at 7.49, which indicates that they have trouble creating offensive opportunities through base hits. The Cubs have not made the most of power-hitting to make up for their inferior run and hit production, even though they rank 20th in the league with 68 home runs.
The New York Mets, on the other hand, have superior offensive performance; they are ranked 13th in hits per game (8.33) and 12th in runs per game (4.47). This points to a more potent offense than the Cubs in terms of both scoring runs and putting runners on base. With 78 home runs, the Mets are also 10th in the league, indicating a greater dependence on power-hitting to lead their offensive production.
