The AL Champions are favored a -1.5 favorite in game one. The Sox are listed at -125 and the Astros +110 to win the World Series. "The finals feature two teams that have had a lot of heartbreak over the years and both cities are starved for a World Series championship," said Peter Childs, Oddsmaker, Sportsbook.com. "Craig Biggio and Jeff Bagwell have stuck it out for over a decade in Houston and now with Pettitte and Clemens have finally made it to the big stage. But Chicago is a proven defensive threat with Contreras, Buehrle, Garland and Garcia taking the mound." Sportsbook.com offers propositions and Live in Game betting on all World Series games.
