Toronto Blue Jays fans are even getting in on the action right now in the World Series, as Texas and St. Louis are down to the championship rounds, as boxing fans would call it. The Rangers have a 3-2 series lead heading into Game 6, which will now be held on Thursday due to weather issues
The Rangers are -270 favorites according to cost per head odds, and they managed to earn a split in the first two games of the series in St. Louis, so sportsbooks are betting that they can do it again, which would give them a World Series win. Mike Napoli has been a monster, hitting .308 with a pair of homers and nine RBIs in the first five games of the Series.
The Cardinals are rated at +230, and even though Albert Pujols had a historic Game 3, he hasn’t done much since. Still, he’s been the most productive Cardinal in the World Series as Lance Berkman (.389), David Freese (.313) and Yadier Molina (.294) hit for power, but they have nine RBIs between them. The Cardinals have also had some issues in the bullpen and you could argue that the Series should be over, if not for a blown chance by Jason Motte in Game 2 and communication problems between the bullpen and dugout in Game 5.
It’s going to fun to watch Game 6 and 7, and the pitching matchups could be thrown for a loop, so confirm who will be on the mound in your online sportsbooks.
