Do you like the thrill of 100mph pitch or the crack of a bat as the ball goes sailing out of the park? If so, we're sure that you love to bet on baseball, and the most popular type of sports betting in spring. There's nothing like a lazy afternoon watching the World Series ball game, and furthermore, there's nothing like betting a few bucks on your favorite baseball team.
The World Series is a tradition in American sports that extends back over 100 years. The World Series is played between the pennant winner of the American League and the pennant winner of the National League each year. The Series winner is determined through a best-of-seven playoff games. The games are played in October, so there is often a crisp chill in the air at a World Series baseball game. But the cooler temperatures are offset by the electricity of the crowd during each game. Each game is critical to the outcome, so every inning and every at bat are huge. 162 regular season baseball games, and two weeks of playoff games, come down to a few World Series games. The crowds buzz, the teams are intense and each player is trying to make that one key play that will be talked about forever.
Texas Rangers Vs. St. Louis Cardinals
The Cardinals defeated the Milwaukee Brewers in six NLCS games while the Rangers beat the Detroit Tigers in as many games during the ALCS. Now, the Texas Rangers will travel to Busch Stadium to take on the St. Louis Cardinals in Game 1 of the 2011 World Series on Oct. 19th 2011. Last year, the Texas Rangers came up short in last year's World Series when San Francisco's pitching staff shut down Texas' powerful offense.
Because the National League captured this year's All-Star game, the Cards will enjoy the advantage of having four contests at home if the series goes the maximum seven games.

2010 World Series Winner
The Giants made franchise history Monday night with a 3-1 triumph in Game 5 of the World Series, ignoring their underdog status to capture the 106th Fall Classic, four games to one.
A proven yet unlikely hero combined with the team's most recognizable star to elevate San Francisco to unprecedented heights.
Edgar Renteria, who is contemplating retirement after enduring a season in which he played a career-low 72 games, belted a seventh-inning home run off Texas ace Cliff Lee to account for the Giants' scoring. Renteria was selected Most Valuable Player for the Series after hitting .412 (7-for-17) with two home runs, six RBIs and six runs scored. It was a fitting career bookend for Renteria, whose Game 7 single won the 1997 Series for the Florida Marlins.
2009 World Series Winner
The New York Yankees won their 27th World Series with a performance that was more relentless than heroic, more a testament to their depth than the often remarkable talent on their roster.
o short on starting pitching that they began considering in September the option to use three starters for most, if not all, of the playoffs? Going through a World Series with the majority of the lineup struggling to hit .200?
It didn't matter. In the end, the Yankees had so many players with so much talent that inevitably someone would come through.
2008 World Series Winner
Phillies Win World Series
The Philadelphia Phillies have become the winner of the 2008 World Series defeating the Tampa Bay Devil Rays 4 games to 1. Fans went wild over the rain delayed game that was stopped Monday night because of the downpour.
Pedro Feliz singled home the go-ahead run in the seventh and Lidge closed out his perfect season to deliver the World Series title Philadelphia have longed for. Cole Hamels won the MVP award for the 2008 World Series. He was presented with a 2010 Chevy Camaro.
Fans watched the historic game while bundled in parkas and blankets seeing the Philadelphia Phillies claim their first major sports championship in 25 years.
It was definitely the most bizarre circumstances in baseball history, a best-of-seven series turned into a best-of-3½ stare down when the game resumed in the bottom of the sixth inning tied at 2.
Two Devil Rays relievers warmed up to start the game, and then a pinch-hitter before a single pitch. "God Bless America" was sung rather than the national anthem and the seventh-inning stretch came fast.
This year’s World Series suffered from low television ratings, and less than fabulous teams playing in the fall classic. Even the kids got to watch it all, before their bedtime.
