2009 World Series Baseball Betting

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're a fan of baseball, America's pasttime and the most popular spring and summer sport. 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.

Can the Phillies do it again or will another team step up and win the 2009 World Series? Philly fans are still celebrating their first World Series title since 1980, and their first apperance since 1993, but before long it will be October again and time to look for 2009 World Series.

Fox and Major League Baseball are pushing up the first pitches for this year's World Series. For the first time in nearly 40 years, World Series games will start before 8 p.m. ET. For weekday games, the Fox pre-show will begin at 7:30 p.m., with the first pitch at 7:57. On Saturdays, the league says games will probably start at the same time, but is open to the possibility of games starting even earlier. On Sundays the World Series will begin following The NFL on Fox. The last World Series to feature such an early start was game five of the 1971 matchup between the Pittsburgh Pirates and Baltimore Orioles.

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.

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.
