Kc vs mets score9/7/2023 ![]() ![]() By winning the NLCS, the Mets ensured they have the most World Series appearances by an expansion franchise with five, though that has since been tied by the Houston Astros. In the 2015 NLCS, Daniel Murphy led the team by hitting home runs in each game of the four-game sweep of the fifth-seeded Chicago Cubs. The third-seeded Mets faced the #2 seed Los Angeles Dodgers in the 2015 NL Division Series, winning in five games. The Mets qualified for the postseason by winning the National League (NL) East, their sixth division title. They had split their four previous appearances, winning the 1969 World Series against the Baltimore Orioles and the 1986 World Series against the Boston Red Sox, while losing the 1973 World Series against the Oakland Athletics and the 2000 World Series against the New York Yankees, their cross-town rivals. The Mets made their fifth appearance in the World Series after sweeping the Cubs 4–0 in the 2015 National League Championship Series (NLCS). Salvador Pérez was named the World Series Most Valuable Player. It was also the first World Series played between two expansion teams. The Royals became the first team since the Oakland Athletics in the 1989 World Series to win the World Series after losing in the previous year. The series was played in a 2-3-2 format: the Royals hosted Games 1 and 2, and would have hosted Games 6 and 7 had they been needed. It was the 13th World Series in which home field advantage was awarded to the league that won the All-Star Game, a practice that was discontinued after the 2016 season. The Royals had home field advantage for the series because of the AL's 6–3 victory in the Major League Baseball All-Star Game. It was the first time since 2010 that the Series extended into November. The series was played between October 27 and November 1, with the Royals winning the series 4 games to 1, clinching the team's second World Series and first since the 1985 series.
