Bat-and-Ball Sports

The New York Mets are an American professional baseball team based in the New York City borough of Queens. They compete in Major League Baseball as a member club of the National League East Division and are one of two major league clubs in New York City, alongside the American League's Yankees. One of baseball's first expansion teams, the Mets were founded in 1962 to replace the departed National League teams, the Brooklyn Dodgers and the New York Giants, and their colors blend the Dodgers' blue with the Giants' orange. They played at the Polo Grounds in 1962 and 1963, at Shea Stadium from 1964 to 2008 and at Citi Field since 2009, and they beat the Baltimore Orioles in the 1969 World Series.
