• The New York Yankees hold the record for the most World Series wins, with a total of 27 championship titles.

• "The Greatest Catch Ever Made" was during the 1954 World Series when Giant's center fielder Willie Mays made his fabled running leap for a 460-foot shot from Indians' slugger Vic Wertz.

• Yankee Don Larsen pitched the only perfect game in World Series history. The no-hitter occurred in Game 5 of the 1956 World Series.
