World Series

In the American League, the Cleveland Indians appear ready to rock their way to the World Series for the first time in nearly two decades. In the National League, the Los Angeles Dodgers and Chicago Cubs seem prepared for a toss-up classic.

The Chicago Cubs (86-47) and Washington Nationals (78-55) are near-locks to become the first two National League teams to clinch playoff berths as big division leaders.

The Texas Rangers had the best record in the American League prior to the MLB trade deadline on Monday, but they made some key moves to put themselves in prime position to be the American League favorite on the odds to win the World Series.

The Kansas City Royals celebrated their first championship since 1985 with a downtown victory parade Tuesday afternoon. Fans turned out in droves to attend the festivities after watching the Royals dispatch the New York Mets in five games to win the 2015 World Series.

In a World Series featuring two teams starving for a championship after almost 30 years of famine apiece, the Kansas City Royals would ultimately outlast the New York Mets in five games to earn the title that's alluded them both for so long. 

Honoring the late Yogi Berra's legacy, the Kansas City Royals constantly proved it ain't over till it's over. The New York Mets led all five games of 2015's MLB World Series, but Kansas City kept earning the last laugh, securing its first championship in 30 years.

The city of Kansas City and the Royals organization has had 30 years to plan a World Series parade. You can bet the party will be epic on Tuesday, when the World Series winners return home for their championship parade. 

The Kansas City Royals defeated the New York Mets to win the 2015 World Series, which means these two teams can now join the rest of the league in figuring out their future plans.

While the Royals might take a little bit of time to celebrate, the reality is the offseason has officially started. With 29 teams looking to improve upon their performance from this past season, Kansas City doesn't have a lot of time to rest on its laurels. 

The Kansas City Royals are celebrating a championship 30 years in the waiting, secured after Sunday night's Game 5 victory that won the 2015 World Series.

After coming one game short of glory during last season's pennant run, the Royals made no mistake of their place atop baseball this time around. They took down the New York Mets in a clash of long-suffering franchises.

The Royals' Twitter account shared the moment the World Series was won:

The Kansas City Royals won the World Series on Sunday night in the most appropriate possible fashion given how they've played this season, somehow erasing a two-run deficit in the ninth inning before winning Game 5 in the 12th inning, 7-2.
