Rangers vs Cardinals Game 7 World Series Odds 2011: After one of the most exhilarating baseball games you’ll ever see, the (3-3) Texas Rangers [+131 ML] and the (3-3) St. Louis Cardinals [-141 ML] will need to regroup and get ready for a winner-takes-all Game 7 tonight. First pitch is scheduled for 8:05 PM ET from Busch Stadium in St. Louis, Missouri, and you can catch all the exciting action live on FOX.
It’s a shame that one of these teams will walk away a loser after such an incredible 2011 World Series Odds. I honestly can’t remember the last time I saw two teams so evenly matched, leaving it all on the field in the Fall Classic, like the Rangers and Cardinals have. I guarantee you that Game 6 was one of the greatest games in World Series history, without question.
After both starters pitched well enough to keep the game close, it became a seesaw battle late in the game, as neither team was willing to back down. With both, Ron Washington and Tony LaRussa emptying out their benches, every time Texas took the lead, St. Louis responded in the following half-inning and tied the game. It was something memorable… it was baseball at its best!
I can’t even remember how many times the Cardinals were down to their final strike and the Rangers that close to their first World Series title in franchise history. However, it certainly felt like every single inning from the 4th all the way through the 11th, tensions were sky-high. Get $50 in Free MLB Picks Here!
“It's just an exhilarating feeling,” said Cardinals’ slugger, Lance Berkman. “You're like Lazarus. You're back from the dead.”
Tonight, everything comes down to one, sudden death Game 7 in St. Louis. And as expected, the pitching matchup couldn’t be better! On the hill for the Rangers will be 26-year-old, LHP Matt Harrison (2011 WS: 0-1, 7.36 ERA) taking on the incomparable, 36-years-young, RHP Chris Carpenter (2011 WS: 1-0, 2.77 ERA). As a direct result of this pitching matchup, the OVER/UNDER has been set at a combined total of 8 runs scored.
My Game 7 2011 World Series Predictions 2011: I picked the St. Louis Cardinals to win the Fall Classic immediately after they defeated the Philadelphia Phillies in the NLDS, and not about to change my pick now! Even though I really like the Texas Rangers a lot — and after watching them fight for this title I can honestly say I love that team — I just think the decisions Tony LaRussa makes as a manager cannot be compared to those of Ron Washington’s.
