| The 1985 World Series, popularly known as the "Show-Me Series" and the "I-70 Series", pitted the National League champion St. Louis Cardinals against the American League champion Kansas City Royals. Interstate 70, which crosses Missouri and links the two cities together, inspired the nickname for this year's Major League Baseball championship. It was the second Missouri-only World Series: the first was the 1944 World Series between two St. Louis teams, the Cardinals vs. the Browns. Although the Royals lost the first two games at home, they overcame their poor start and became World Series champions for the first time, thanks in particular to Series MVP Bret Saberhagen and his victories in games 3 and 7. Managers: Dick Howser (Kansas City), Whitey Herzog (St. Louis) Umpires: Don Denkinger (AL), Billy Williams (NL), Jim McKean (AL), Bob Engel (NL), John Shulock (AL), Jim Quick (NL) Television: ABC (Al Michaels, Tim McCarver and Jim Palmer announcing) Game 1October 19, 1985 at Royals Stadium (Kansas City Royals)1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E - - - - - - - - - - - - St. Louis Cardinals 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 1 3 7 1 Kansas City Royals 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 8 0 Game 2October 20, 1985 at Royals Stadium (Kansas City Royals)1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E - - - - - - - - - - - - St. Louis Cardinals 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 4 4 6 0 Kansas City Royals 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 0 0 2 9 0 Game 3October 22, 1985 at Busch Stadium (St. Louis Cardinals)1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E - - - - - - - - - - - - Kansas City Royals 0 0 0 2 2 0 2 0 0 6 11 0 St. Louis Cardinals 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 6 0 Game 4October 23, 1985 at Busch Stadium (St. Louis Cardinals)1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E - - - - - - - - - - - - Kansas City Royals 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 5 1 St. Louis Cardinals 0 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 X 3 6 0 Game 5October 24, 1985 at Busch Stadium (St. Louis Cardinals)1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E - - - - - - - - - - - - Kansas City Royals 1 3 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 6 11 2 St. Louis Cardinals 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 5 1 Game 6October 26, 1985 at Royals Stadium (Kansas City Royals)1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E - - - - - - - - - - - - St. Louis Cardinals 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 5 0 Kansas City Royals 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 2 10 0See also:
