The NY Yankees have appeared in 39 World Series, winning 26 of them, out of 102 total World Series.\n\nThat's a 38.24% chance, based on history, of getting to the World Series, and a 25.49% chance of winning.

I think it will - especially since USA is ranked  it.so high in the fifa rankings. I also think ESPN addicts (98%  of the US male population who has cable) will be watching it. I'm hopeful, I love this sport, I don't see enough of it in this country.

Here's an article that talks about this:\n\nNEW YORK -- Ratings for ABC's coverage of Miami's victory over Dallas in the NBA Finals were up 12 percent over last year's series.\n\nThe six-game average rating was an 8.5, surpassing the 7.6 the network drew for San Antonio's victory over Detroit last year. The games drew an average of 13 million viewers, 13 percent higher than last season's average of 11.5.\n\nThe 10.1 rating for Miami's series-clinching victory Tuesday night was up 15 percent from the 8.8 that Game 6 drew last year.

The most famous player is Old Yogi Berra, played for the Yankee's he was traded to them from St. Louis Cardinals. Has played in more world series than anyone else. He was born on Elizabeth street in St. Louis. (The Hill) He is famous because I cant turn on the TV without seeing him advertising something

I cannot find where there is a total average of viewers, but on tv.com it shwos how many people watched the finale.

Sure, I watched them.  The playoffs were awesome.  I saw them lose at the Vet against the Astros, and watched the rest of the playoffs on TV.  The final game was incredible -- Nolan Ryan had a shutout going, 3-0 in the late innings.  Somehow, the Phils pulled it out to win.\nI was fortunate enough to be in the stadium for game 6 of the world series, in the next to last row in dead center field.  I couldn't really see the details of the play where Pete Rose caught the foul ball that popped out of Bob Boone's glove.  But the celebration around city hall was something I'll never forget, complete strangers high-fiving each other.  Very peaceful, too, no burning cars or buildings like in other cities.

Amen Sister!\n\nI am happy as a lark in mid-june!\n\nA few years back they started the season 4-0 and ended up 72-90. So I am not saying they are going to win the WORLD Series, but I am enjoying it while it lasts.\n\nJustin Verlander starts today, and he's got a good arm. he's a flame thrower...I'd love to see them 5-0. But I dont want to jinx them by saying they will win.\n\nWe got some young good arms. Bondermen should have a break out year, and hopefully win 15-20 games. kenny rodgers will be a good influence on the young arms (just keep him away from any and all cameramen!!! lol).\n\nShelton usually doesnt hit for power, more for average. So this is just a phase he's going through. If he can hit close to .300 (or better) I'd be happy.\n\nIf Mags can stay healthy all year, along with Guillen we should be ok. Polanco is awesome, he just hits the baseball almost everytime he's up. You can count on him being at or above .300 this year.\n\nIf Pudge has the same kind of year he had in 2004, that would be great.\n\nInge is much better hitter when he doesnt catch.\n\nGranderson has speed, but needs to work onhis outfield play.\n\nMonroe is good.\n\nOf course the trick is too put ALL THINGS together at the same time.\n\nThe baseball season is a marathon (162 games), so it's still way to early to tell. But so far I like what I see.\n\nGiving where The Tigers have been at over the last 14 years. if they win 79-80 games I would be happier than a lark in mid-june!\n\nWe haven't had a winning season (.500 or better) in 12 years. This could be 13. \n\nAnd please dont get me started on the owner, he is more concerned with his other team to even care about The Tigers.\n\noh Wow! Did I just babble? Sorry, but I love MY TIGERS! MY TIGERS! MY TIGERS!\n\nI am happy to see them in 1st place, but I know it won't last.\n\nThanks for letting me babble!

Well, there's one team from Canada that has won the "World" Series. Honestly, I hate this, and I'm American. The "World" Series started in 1901 and though it was played in other countries had baseball, it wasn't like it was here, so I guess they just thought that winning a Major League Baseball championship would make them the champs of the world. Stupid and arrogant. I always call it the Major League Baseball Championship Series. I hate that it's call the "World" Series. I hope it can be changed some day.
