Key situations and factors to watch out for in the 2015 World Series.

The New York Mets and Kansas City Royals are set to meet in an unlikely World Series match-up.

The Mets, who haven’t won the World Series since 1986, took home the National League Pennant after a four-game sweep of the Chicago Cubs in the NLCS. The Mets last reached the World Series in 2000, when they lost to the New York Yankees in five games in the “Subway Series.”

The Royals, who won the American League Pennant in six games over the Toronto Blue Jays, were last crowned champions of the baseball world in 1985.
