The Subway Series: Yankees vs. Mets, Not "Subway Games"

You're likely asking about the Subway Series — the MLB rivalry between the New York Yankees (AL) and New York Mets (NL).

Why "Subway Series"?

• Both teams based in NYC (Bronx vs. Queens).
• Connected by NYC Subway system (4/5/D/B trains to Yankee Stadium; 7 train to Citi Field).
• Term coined 1950s, popularized during 2000 World Series (Yankees won 4–1).

Key Facts

• Regular season: 4 games/year (2 each park) since 1997 interleague play.
• Postseason: Only 2000 World Series meeting.
• Atmosphere: Intense, split crowds, high media attention.
• All-time: Yankees lead 76–68 (regular season, 2023).

Not a video game — though MLB The Show simulates it annually.
