MLB World Series

Game 5

It's over!

The Kansas City Royals scored five runs in the top of the 12th inning tonight in Game 5 of the World Series and defeated the New York Mets 7-2 to claim the championship.

The entire series the Royals found a way to finish on top and tonight was no exception as Lorenzo Cain put the finishing touches on the comeback with a three-run double in the 12th.

The Royals scored two runs in the ninth to tie the game at 2-2 and saved all the fireworks for the 12th inning. The disappointed Mets' fans watched in disbelief as Wilmer Flores struck out in the bottom of the 12th for the final out of the World Series.
