New York Yankees' Aaron Hicks hits the first ever MLB London Series home run in Europe during game one against Boston Red Sox at London Stadium.

To get you in the mood for the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox's double-header at the London Stadium, here are six outstanding catches from the 2018 Major League Baseball season.

Tickets sold out almost instantly, despite inflated costs compared to equivalent fixtures at the Yankee Stadium or Fenway Park.

But fear not if you're not one of the lucky ticket holders, as both Saturday and Sunday's historic meetings between the two sides will be live on the BBC iPlayer and BBC Sport website and app.

Saturday, 29 June

Game 1 - 18:00-22:00 BST

Sunday, 30 June

Game 2 - 15:00-19:00 BST

You can also catch-up on all of the action for 30 days on the BBC iPlayer.

"The biggest opportunity we've had - or maybe ever will have - to show the sport to new audiences."

Liam Carroll, head coach of the Great Britain baseball team, has no doubt about the importance of this weekend's London Series.

For two nights, the famous West Ham song 'I'm forever blowing bubbles' will be replaced by the baseball anthem 'Take me out to the ball game' as London Stadium plays host to one of sport's most iconic rivalries.
