- The New York Yankees avoided elimination with a win in Game 4 and now have +600 odds to win the World Series down 3-1.
- Betting on the series to go under 6.5 games at -375 is an absolute lock, as the Dodgers just need to win once in the next two games to cash.
- New York has -149 moneyline odds to win Game 5 of the World Series with Gerrit Cole pitching.
NEW YORK – After the New York Yankees kept their championship hopes alive with a Game 5 win, many fans want to know the Yankees odds to win the World Series. New York has +600 legal sports betting odds to become the first team ever to come back down 3-0 in the World Series.
World Series Prices
Team | Spread | To Win Series | Total Games |
---|---|---|---|
New York Yankees | +1.5 (+260) | +600 | O6.5 (+260) |
Los Angeles Dodgers | -1.5 (-375) | -1000 | U6.5 (-375) |
World Series prices also show there are +260 odds for the Yankees to cover a 1.5-game series spread, which would hit if the World Series goes to seven games. Don’t take the bait after New York hammered the Dodgers’ bullpen in Game 4, instead back the -375 odds for under 6.5 games in the series.
The -375 odds are short, but it’s an MLB betting lock with all of the Dodgers best arms available for the next two games. They only need to win Game 5 or Game 6 to cash the under on the 6.5-game total, which will probably be in Game 6 with Yoshinobu Yamamoto expected to pitch in that game.
Yankees Favored To Win Game 5 Behind Gerrit Cole
It’s unsurprising that legal California sports betting odds favor the Yankees in Game 5 with Gerrit Cole on the mound. Los Angeles will rely on Jack Flaherty to keep the Yankees bats in check, which he did effectively in Game 1 with 5.1 innings pitched and two earned runs allowed.
World Series Game 5 Odds
Team | Spread | Moneyline | Total |
---|---|---|---|
Los Angeles Dodgers | +1.5 (-150) | +125 | O8.5 (-105) |
New York Yankees | -1.5 (+130) | -149 | U8.5 (-115) |
Cole limited the Dodgers to just one run across six innings of work in Game 1 of the World Series, but the bullpen let the Yankees down. Back the 8.5-run total to go under at -115 odds with two solid starters on the mound.
