New York Mets vs New York Yankees

The Subway Series is the nickname for Mets-Yankees matchups, a rivalry that stretches back to when New York fans could take the subway between ballparks in Queens and the Bronx. The only World Series meeting came in 2000, when the Yankees won in five games - a result Mets fans have not forgotten. The two teams meet in interleague play each regular season, and those games carry a different weight than any other series on the schedule.

Home games alternate by series: the Mets host at Citi Field in Flushing, Queens, and the Yankees host at Yankee Stadium in the South Bronx. Both parks opened in 2009 and sit less than 8 miles apart, so fans from either borough can make the trip.

Both parks are directly accessible by New York City subway - which is where the Subway Series name originally comes from. For Mets home games, the 7 train runs directly to the Mets-Willets Point station just outside Citi Field's main entrance in Flushing, Queens. For Yankees home games, the 4, B, and D trains stop at the 161st Street-Yankee Stadium station in the South Bronx, a short walk to the ballpark gates.

Yes, once - in 2000, when the Yankees defeated the Mets in five games. It was the last World Series played entirely within New York City, with Games 1 and 2 at the original Yankee Stadium in the Bronx and Games 3, 4, and 5 at Shea Stadium in Flushing. For the two teams to meet in the Fall Classic again, both would need to win their respective league championship series - a rare prospect that generates significant interest whenever both clubs are in postseason contention.

Two competing fan bases in the same city drive more demand for these games than almost any other regular-season series. Mets fans from Queens and Long Island and Yankees fans from the Bronx and Westchester are both after the same seats, and casual New York sports fans drawn by the rivalry add to the pressure. Primary tickets often sell through quickly, which is why most fans end up in the secondary market. TickPick has the guaranteed best prices on Subway Series tickets of any secondary ticket site, and even when the box office is sold out, you can often find seats at below face value with no hidden fees.

Subway Series games are among the best regular-season experiences in New York. Both Citi Field and Yankee Stadium fill with fans from both sides, and the split crowd makes routine at-bats feel contested in a way they rarely do during other interleague visits. The games carry stakes beyond the standings. Even a mid-July series between teams out of playoff contention draws more intensity than most opponents on the schedule bring. For fans who attend games regularly in New York, these tend to be the ones they remember.
