Or: once the game ended with (Yankee 4 & Mets 7) results, or vice versa.When the phrase was first coined the IRT services did not have numbers...in fact the term "Subway Series" did not even refer to the Mets vs Yankees. The phrase dates back to when the Yankees would play against the NY Giants or the Brooklyn Dodgers (today's SF Giants and LA Dodgers)... It stuck when the Mets became the NY National League team. The reason is very simple - you can travel between the stadiums by subway. |
