Just one night after the Mets clinched their stunning NLCS berth, the top-seeded Yankees slammed the door on the Royals’ fairytale season, closing Game 4 of the ALDS in Kansas City 3-1 to reach the door once again of the autumn classic.

It is the first time in 24 years that the Yankees and Mets have reached the LCS in the same season.

While the Mets await the winner of Friday night’s deciding game between the Dodgers and Padres in Los Angeles, the Yankees face the winner of Saturday’s Game 5 between the Guardians and Tigers in Cleveland.

Game 1 of the NLCS starts Sunday in California. Game 1 of the ALCS begins Monday in The Bronx.
