It’s been a long season but October baseball has finally come down to two teams. The Texas Rangers finished the season with a 90-72 record and will travel out west to face the San Francisco Giants in Game 1 of the 2010 World Series tonight at 7:57pm EST from AT&T Park. Online sportsbooks have listed the Rangers -125 favorites in World Series predictions on the road vs the Giants +115 while the over/under MLB betting total is set at 5.5 OVER (-115) for Game 1 that can be seen on FOX television. Vegas MLB odds at sportsbooks also favor Texas -1.5 (+140) vs San Francisco +1.5 (-160) on the run line. Texas will start Game 1 with their ace lefthander, Cliff Lee who has gone 15-9 with a 2.93 ERA this season while the Giants will give the ball to righthander Tim Lincecum who has gone 18-11 this year with a 3.29 ERA. Although the Rangers are the favorites in World Series predictions for Game 1, even their starting pitcher knows he will have to perform exceptionally well with Lincecum on the mound for the Giants. “The way he does it, no one else does it that way. I like that,” Lee said heading into World Series odds for Game 1. “He throws in a way that you probably wouldn’t want to show your kid how to throw but he definitely is doing something right. He’s different.” There is nothing but respect from both sides of the dugout heading into tonight’s pitching duel. Lee went 3-0 in the American League playoffs for Texas and has pitched exceptionally well vs San Francisco in his career with three wins in his three starts throwing a blistering 1.13 ERA. “He works in and out on both sides of the plate, which allows him a lot of freeze strike threes, guys looking. He paints his slider-cutter kind of thing,” opposing pitcher Lincecum said heading into Game 1. Although the Rangers have gone 8-1 for their last nine games on the road and are the MLB betting favorites to win Game 1, the betting trends actually favor a San Francisco victory tonight since going 5-0 in their last five match-ups vs Texas at AT&T Park. Bet the Giants +115 as underdogs in World Series predictions vs the Rangers with up to 295% in total bonuses for Game 1. World Series Picks: Giants +115 |
