Re-Live some of the most exciting World Series Match-Ups with this Time Travel Set.

Included in this set are the following famous match-ups:

1955 Brooklyn vs. New York

The 1955 World Series matched the Brooklyn franchise against the New York franchise, with Brooklyn winning the Series in seven games to capture their first championship in franchise history. It would be the only Series the franchise would win in Brooklyn (the team relocated to Los Angeles after the 1957 season). The last time the Brooklyn franchise won a World Championship was in 1900. The team was called the Brooklyn Superbas, the event was called the Chronicle-Telegraph Cup, and the opponent was their fellow National League franchise, Pittsburgh.

This was the fifth time in nine years that Brooklyn and New York met in World Series, with the New York team having won in 1947, 1949, 1952 and 1953.

This Series also marked the end of a long period of invulnerability for the New York squad in World Series. It was their first loss in a World Series since 1942 and only their second since 1926

1991 Atlanta vs. Minnesota

The 1991 World Series pitted the Minnesota against Atlanta.

Before 1991, no league champion had ever finished the previous season in last place but both teams had finished the previous season in last place.

In their "World Series 100th Anniversary" countdown, ESPN selected the 1991 World Series as the "Greatest of All Time",with five of its games being decided by a single run, four games decided in the final at-bat and three games going into extra innings.

2011 St. Louis vs. Texas

The 2011 World Series was played between Texas and St. Louis, with the St. Louis squad defeating the Texas team in seven games to win their 11th World championship.

The Series was noted for its back-and-forth Game 6 in which St. Louis erased two-run deficits in the bottom of both the 9th and 10th innings. In both innings, Texas was one strike away from their first championship. The St. Louis team won the game in the 11th inning on a walk-off home run by David Freese. The Series was also well known for the blowout Game 3, in which Albert Pujols hit three home runs, matching a World Series feat accomplished only by Reggie Jackson and Babe Ruth.
