Yankees and Mets Eye Subway Series Potential

Both the New York Mets and Yankees have advanced to their respective League Championship Series, marking the first time in 24 years that both New York baseball teams reached this stage in the same season. The Mets, led by manager Carlos Mendoza, secured their NLCS spot by defeating the Philadelphia Phillies, while the Yankees ended the Royals' season to clinch their ALCS berth. Mendoza's leadership, emphasizing family and team unity, has been pivotal in turning the Mets' season around after a challenging start. This success sets the stage for a potential 'Subway Series' rematch in the World Series, a feat last accomplished in 2000. Both teams await their opponents, with the Mets facing either the Dodgers or Padres and the Yankees preparing for a matchup against the Guardians or Tigers.
