Given it is holed, I am sure it was a charm to be worn on a necklace or bracelet. Given it is two- sided (both teams), it was most likely not attached as a charm or dangle to a pinback button. A World Series pinback button typically supports one team or the other, not both. It has an interesting design feature in that the city is listed by name but the team is represented by an image of a bear and tiger. I also find it intriguing that throughout the history of MLB baseball there appears to be no agreement whether it is the "World" or "World's" Series. Yours references the latter. I have a similar round metal medallion that lists both team names and the year, but it is not as artfully crafted as yours. Hope this helps.
