Despite the 2015 World Series not going the full seven games like last postseason’s Fall Classic, the Kansas City Royals’ clinching Game 5 was the highest rated World Series game since 2009.

Kansas City manager Ned Yost, however, had no problem calling on him in the clutch.
Reminder: Jonny Gomes played zero innings in the playoffs.
“We just believe. We believe in each other, you believe in the guy next to you”, Hosmer said, “and you realize you don’t have to do it all by yourself, you just do your part and we got a chance of winning ballgames”.
New York Mets manager Terry Collins has agreed a two-year contract extension with the Mets, reports ESPN’s Adam Rubin.
“Sometimes you let your heart dictate your mind”, Collins said.
Fire Chief Paul Berardi said about 20 additional ambulances from surrounding communities were brought in to help and 40 to 50 people were transported for conditions that included cardiac arrest, head injuries and crowd-related anxiety.
It was also a matter of national pride for Volquez and teammates and fellow countrymen Yordano Ventura and Johnny Cueto, acquired in July from Cincinnati, making up an internationally unprecedented three-fourths of the team’s World Series rotation. “We certainly did not expect him to come back and be ready to pitch in a World Series game”.
Kansas City outscored the Mets 15-1 from the seventh inning on, exposing New York’s weaknesses. The Mets dispatched the $290 million Los Angeles Dodgers in a tense and testy Division Series, then swept the Chicago Cubs in the NLCS with a dominant display of pitching and power. “He’s done it all and he’s just stayed steady and I think it’s been very important to his players”, Leyland said before Game 4. Thousands of fans shot off fireworks, stormed sporting goods to buy the latest apparel, and spent the night partying as if it was New Year’s Eve in downtown Kansas City. “I’d like to come back, but we’ll have to see”, he said. Collins and general manager Sandy Alderson are set to hold a news conference at Citi Field on Wednesday. And it doesn’t stop there, “the family picture for the Christmas card, this year, Royals”, says Steere-Offermann. “This is really becoming a bad trend”, said de Blasio, who sang “I Love L.A.” on late night TV after the Rangers lost last year’s Stanley Cup. Next season will mark three decades since New York’s last title in 1986. “We planned we were going to do our face paint”. “I like our ballclub”.
“We always feel like we’re in it. We never count ourselves out”.
And again, the Royals’ bullpen did the job, suffocating the Mets’ attack.

“When the double hit, that’s when I said I’ve got to see if we can get out of this with only one run”, Collins said.
