The last World Series, played in 2042 before a crowd of only a few hundred, in which Buck Bokai of the London Kings hit the winning home run.
The final World Series marks the end of professional baseball on Earth. It is described in the Deep Space Nine episode If Wishes Were Horses, in which a figure from Benjamin Sisko's imagination takes the form of the player Buck Bokai.
Bokai, a switch-hitter with the London Kings who had earlier broken Joe DiMaggio's record for hitting in consecutive games, recalls that only about three hundred people were in the stands for the last game of the last series in 2042. He hit the home run that won it.
The decline of the game is also touched on in The Next Generation episode Evolution. Sisko's love of baseball, shared with his son Jake and later with the Niners holosuite team, keeps the memory of the sport alive in the 24th century.
