View Date:2024-12-23 19:54:11
It's October, which means it's time for postseason baseball.
There are a lot of familiar faces returning to the postseason, particularly in the National League. The Los Angeles Dodgers, led by Freddie Freeman and Mookie Betts, and the Atlanta Braves, led by 40-70 star Ronald Acuña Jr., are the current betting favorites to win the World Series.
In the American League, the Houston Astros, who won the American League West division for the sixth time in seven years, will trying to become the first repeat champion since the 1998-2000 New York Yankees won three in a row.
Meanwhile, don't count out the 101-win Baltimore Orioles, who return to the postseason for the first since 2016.
It's a long road to the World Series.
