The Kansas City Royals did what they do, rallying again to beat the New York Mets and take a 3-1 lead in the World Series. The Royals will go for the clinching win on Sunday, but before they do that, we present the most noteworthy stats from their Game 4 victory.

1. The Royals are one win away from winning the World Series for the first time since 1985. Coincidentally, the Mets are trying to become the first team to rally from a 3-1 deficit to win the World Series since the 1985 Royals did it against the Cardinals. Sunday is day No. 10,962 since the Royals' last title.

2. The Elias Sports Bureau notes that the Royals became the first team to record six postseason wins in which they came back from at least two runs down. The previous mark of five was set by the 1996 Yankees. Keep in mind that prior to 1969, there was only one round of postseason play (the World Series) and prior to 1995, there were only two rounds.

3. In those six games, five different players had the game-winning RBI. And five times, the go-ahead run came in the seventh inning or later. The Royals had a win probability of 25 percent or less at some point in each of those six games.

4. The game turned on an error by Daniel Murphy on Eric Hosmer’s ground ball that allowed the tying run to score. Murphy has had defensive issues at second base throughout his career. Over the past three seasons, he ranks second-worst at that position in Defensive Runs Saved.

5. Mike Moustakas followed that error with a go-ahead single. He joins Hosmer as the only Royals to have multiple go-ahead hits in the eighth inning or later of a postseason game.

6. Jeurys Familia couldn’t convert the five-out save opportunity after entering with two men on base. He’s the first pitcher with multiple blown saves in a World Series since Ryan Madson had two for the 2008 Phillies. Coincidentally, who won Game 4? Ryan Madson.

7. Wade Davis did convert a six-out save. He’s the first pitcher to have at least two of those in a single postseason since Mariano Rivera in 2009.

8. Early on, it looked like the star of the night would be 22-year-old Mets outfielder Michael Conforto, who became the third-youngest player with a multihomer game in the World Series. The only players younger were Andruw Jones (1996 Braves, age 19) and Tony Kubek (1957 Yankees, age 21).

9. Kansas City's offense has taken a little while to get going this postseason, but once it does, it rolls. The Royals have scored 39 runs and hit .227 in the first six innings of their postseason games. They’ve scored 44 and hit .333 in the seventh inning and beyond.

10. Teams up 3-1 in a best-of-seven postseason series win that series 85 percent of the time (68-12).
