New York Mets

 The New York Mets are a professional baseball team (in the National League) based in Queens of New York City. They were founded as an expansion MLB franchise team back in 1960 and began play regular season games in 1962. During the first two years, the Mets played home games at Polo Grounds in Upper Manhattan, which it shared with the NFL New York Jets, but now both teams play Citi Field, located adjacent to the former site of Shea Stadium (where they have also played from 1964 to 2008).

The Mets have won the World Series twice (one in 1969 and then again in 1986), have won 4 National League pennants and also 5 National League East titles.They have also appeared in more World Series games than any of the other expansion teams in MLB history.

 The Mets cap logo is identical to the logo used by the New York Giants in their final years, and is on a blue cap reminiscent of the caps worn by the Brooklyn Dodgers.
