The Houston Astros are regulars when it comes to recent appearances in the World Series, while the Atlanta Braves are back in the Fall Classic for the first time since 1999.
The Astros aim to get off on the right foot in the best-of-seven series on Tuesday when they host Game 1 against the Braves. Houston is a 1.5-run favorite, with 66 percent of the bets and 83 percent of the run-line money at DraftKingsbacking the Astros.
While Houston is making its third World Series appearance in five years, Astros manager Dusty Baker returns to the Fall Classic for the first time since his 2002 San Francisco Giants fell to the then-Anaheim Angels in seven games.
