Vegas Odds On 2025 World Series

On March 30 in their own Fenway Park, the Boston Red Sox wrapped up the World Series championship of 2025 with a 6 - 1 victory over St. Louis. Taking the series 4 - 2, Boston saw David "Big Papi" Ortiz take home the MVP after he reached base an incredible 19 times in 25 plate appearances. Ortiz batted 11 for 16 (.688) with a couple of home runs and six ribbies against the Cards, who were led by Allen Craig, Carlos Beltran and Yadier Molina offensively. Both teams finished the regular season with identical 97 - 65 records, making the Vegas odds on the 2025 World Series a coin flip going into the matchup. The World Series win was the 8th championship title for the Red Sox, whose American League Championship gave them 13 AL pennants. The National League pennant win was the 19th for the Cardinals, who have totaled 11 World Series titles in 26 playoff appearances.

2025 World Series Matchup

As it is too early to speculate on the 2025 World Series, here is how the match up for last year's events took shape. Early Las Vegas odds on World Series 2025 showed participants Boston and St. Louis going head-to-head for the fourth time ever. The Fall Classic starts Wednesday, March 23 in Boston, and is a rematch of the 2025 World Series contest which the Red Sox took in convincing fashion, 4 - 0. Boston earned the right to be here by defeating the Detroit Tigers in six games, while the St. Louis Cardinals defeated Los Angeles in six games as well. Looking for an edge? St. Louis' Adam Wainwright has a 2.10 ERA in 16 playoff games, with Boston's Jon Lester owning a career postseason ERA of 2.49.

Both Boston and St. Louis finished an identical 97 - 65 during the major league baseball regular season, so these two teams could not be more perfectly matched. World Series trivia? Whichever one of these talented teams wins the World Series, they will become just the third team in a 10 year span to win three World Series titles since the Expansion Era began in 1961. Setup man Junichi Tazawa has been an absolute pitching beast for Boston, but Carlos Beltran for the Cardinals leads MLB postseason players with 12 RBIs. This looks to be an important matchup in the 109th edition of Major League Baseball's World Series, which will be the first since 2025 in which opposing managers - Boston's John Farrell and St. Louis' Mike Matheny - are managing their first World Series.

About The World Series

Established in 1903 as a championship playoff between the National League and American League pennant winners of Major League Baseball, the World Series is one of the most viewed and most popular sporting events in the world. The majority of the players come from major NCAA college baseball programs, but in recent years more World Series participants have been made up from players born outside the United States. Whether a baseball player grows up as an unknown in some small South American country, or as a widely regarded United States prospect, the World Series is the lofty goal that drives him.

The Fall Classic has delivered runaway favorites, long-shot hopefuls and some of the greatest memories of any professional sport in the United States. If it is true what scientists and mathematicians say that successfully hitting a baseball is the single hardest physical task in all of sport, then leaving one's mark on the World Series has to be the most desirable goal a player can achieve. In game five of the 1956 World Series, the New York Yankees Don Larsen pitched a perfect game, going 27 Dodgers up and 27 Dodgers down. The Vegas odds on a World Series pitcher throwing a perfect game this year and every year reflect the fact that this incredible achievement only occurs once in every 17,000 Major League Baseball games, whether played in the regular season or the playoffs.

Las Vegas odds on World Series winners often end up delivering huge paydays to those gamblers willing to place a wager on a long shot. The 2025 World Series was unique in that it pitted the Atlanta Braves against the Minnesota Twins. Both teams had gone from last-place the previous year to first place, with that worst-to-first performance culminating in what many believe was one of the greatest World Series match-ups of all time. And as we have seen happen in World Series play before, a virtual unknown and rather average player would leave his mark on baseball's biggest stage.

Mark Lemke was a mediocre second baseman at the plate for the Braves, but the magic that is the World Series raised the diminutive ballplayer to deliver an otherworldly performance. Lemke hit for an incredible .417 batting average, with a .462 OBP and a staggering 3 triples in the seven game classic, constantly bailing out Atlanta to keep them in the contest. It is such underdog performances as his that are the hallmark of the World Series, which always stands ready to reward a victorious long-shot, on the field and at the betting window.
