You have your font.family set to serif and font.serif set to Times. That means 
you are telling matplotlib to use the Times fonts, but you are using the 
default Computer Modern fonts in your latex document. I suggest you either 
add \usepackage{pslatex} in your latex header to use the adobe fonts instead 
of computer modern, or move computer modern roman to the front of your list 
of serif fonts in matplotlib.
