Centrebet offers World Series baseball betting odds throughout the best-of-seven contest between the American League and National League champion clubs that is the final act of the Major League Baseball season. Baseball is the United States of America's national pastime and, therefore, it is not surprising that betting agencies such as Centrebet trades dozens of markets on the sport.

2005 World Series Betting Options At Centrebet Include:

World Series betting options at Centrebet are available on the outcome of every game in the series, as well as on the World Series title winner. Match books open as soon as each club nominates its starting pitcher, an item of information without which it is difficult to frame betting markets. Punting on the outcome of the match is the most straightforward option but it does not account for 100 percent of turnover. Far from it.

World Series baseball fans love betting on the numbers of runs scored, including those added to the total during extra innings, in Major League games. Bookmakers such as Centrebet also quote handicap lines, sometimes called spreads. Check Centrebet's secure site for specific Baseball World Series odds that are available right now.

Past World Series Title Winners:

In 2004, the World Series was won by the Boston Red Sox, and the Florida Marlins won in 2003. Twenty-seven clubs have won one or more World Series titles over the years and they are: New York Yankees (26 times); St Louis Cardinals (nine times); Boston Red Sox (six times); Cincinnati Reds, Los Angeles Dodgers, New York Giants, Philadelphia Athletics, Pittsburgh Pirates (five times); Detroit Tigers, Oakland Athletics (four times); Baltimore Orioles (three times); Chicago Cubs, Chicago White Sox, Cleveland Indians, Florida Marlins, Minnesota Twins, New York Mets, Toronto Blue Jays (twice); Anaheim Angels, Arizona Diamondbacks, Atlanta Braves, Boston Braves, Brooklyn Dodgers, Kansas City Royals, Milwaukee Braves, Philadelphia Phillies, Washington Senators (once).

The World Series started in 1903 when American League representative Boston defeated National League qualifer Pittsburgh. Contrary to popular myth, the championship did not derive its name from the New York World newspaper. No evidence exists to support the widely purported claim.

Baseball betting isn't the only North American pastime on which Centrebet accepts wagers. As well as Superbowl betting options, Centrebet customers are able to choose from hundreds of other different sports betting opportunities including American football betting and basketball betting. Football is the most popular sport on which Centrebet accepts bets, with England's Premier League and the FIFA World Cup 2006 Soccer both generating global interest.
