MLB World Series : Game 5 Odds Yankees at Phillies

The NY Yankees look to win their record 27th title and first in 9 years, while the defending champion Philadelphia Phillies try to force a return to the Bronx as they turn to a rested Cliff Lee for a must-win Game Five.

MLB World Series betting odds have the Phillies listed as -139 home favorites.

Behind solid pitching and timely hitting, the Yankees are one win away from their first World Series title since 2000, following a 7-4 victory over the Phillies in Game 4 on Sunday.

The Phillies hope to rally and become the first NL team to repeat as champions since Cincinnati in 1975-76. If Philadelphia succeeds in extending the series, it will return to the Bronx for Game Six on Wednesday.

Lee is 3-0 with an 0.54 ERA in the postseason. He will battle A.J. Burnett, who is 4-0 with a 2.33 ERA in four career starts on short rest.
