The New York Mets are one of the two teams alongside the New York Yankees from New York in Major League Baseball (MLB). The team was formed in 1962 after the Brooklyn Dodgers departed to Los Angeles and became the Los Angeles Dodgers after 1957. Likewise, the New York Giants also relocated to San Francisco and became the San Francisco Giants. As a result, the newly formed New York Mets became a National League (NL) member from New York.
The New York Mets have gone on to win the World Series twice, the National League (NL) title five times and the NL East Division title four times. They have been using Citi Field as their home ground since 2009. Throughout the 2023 MLB season, they gained a record 75-87-0 and ranked fourth in the NL East Division. Kodai Senga was their #1 pitcher with 202 strikeouts while Francisco Alvarez was their #1 batter with 25 home runs throughout the season.
