Played between the New York Yankees and the defending champion Brooklyn Dodgers in October 1956, this series was a rematch of the 1955 World Series and the last all-New York Series until 2000. The New York Yankees (American League) won the Series in seven games, 4-3, capturing their seventeenth championship. The highlight was Don Larsen's (World Series MVP) perfect game in Game 5, the only no-hitter in World Series history.
