Last night, Kansas City rallied one more time to win the 2015 World Series®, the first World Series win for the Royals in 30 years. The fifth game was definitely exciting, with the Royals scoring two runs in the top half of the ninth inning to tie the game and send the game into extra innings. The Royals then scored five more runs in the twelfth inning to seal their win over the New York Mets – what a way to end it! Kansas City will hold a parade for their champions on Tuesday afternoon.
