The Final Game Seven Who will win?

Who will win Game 7?
1:St. Louis Cardinals:
2:Texas Rangers:
A game seven is the final game of a best of seven series. This game can occur in the postseasons for Major League Baseball (League Championship Series and World Series), the National Basketball Association (all rounds of the NBA Playoffs), and the National Hockey League (all rounds of the Stanley Cup playoffs).
National Basketball:
The game is traditionally played at the site of team holding the home advantage across the series.Because of the final nature of this game, where the losing team is done for the season, game sevens add an element of drama to their sports. Since this is the final game of the series, the winning team advances in the playoffs or wins the championship.
Aside from North American sports leagues, game sevens are also a fixture in many other sports around the world, mostly in baseball, basketball, ice hockey leagues. Most codes of football do not employ a best-of-seven series (or any best-of-x series in general), hence game sevens are not played in those leagues.The game seven is comparable to a final or to a single game in a single-elimination tournament or to a one-game playoff.

World Series that were decided on a game seven:
ST. LOUIS – The St. Louis Cardinals, who were a strike away from losing the World Series on Thursday night, won it on Friday by beating the Texas Rangers, 6-2, in Game 7 at Busch Stadium.David Murphy flied out to left fielder Allen Craig off closer Jason Motte for the final out, and the Cardinals players hugged and piled onto one another in small groups in the infield as red, white and blue confetti filled the air. It was the Cardinals’ 11th World Series title, and the team’s first since 2006.st. Louis’ ace, Chris Carpenter, delivered for his team again, improving to 2-0 in the World Series and 4-0 in the postseason. Pitching on three days’ rest, Carpenter gave up two runs in the top of the first inning but settled down and shut out the Rangers before leaving after leaving after allowing a leadoff double in the seventh. The Rangers, close enough to taste the title on Thursday, failed to produce a hit against four Cardinals relievers in the final three innings on Friday.The Cardinals erased the Rangers’ early lead with David Freese’s two-run double in the bottom of the first, and took the lead on Craig’s homer in the third. The Rangers’ pitchers blinked in the fifth, issuing a bases-loaded walk to force in a run and then following it by hitting the next batter to give the Cardinals a 5-2 lead.It was a stunning reversal of fortune for the Cardinals, who lost Game 5 in part because of a communications disaster with their bullpen and were down to their last strike — twice — in Game 6. But they rallied for two runs in the ninth inning in that game, did it again after falling behind in the 10th, and then won in the 11th on a home run by Freese.Freese, whose two R.B.I. in Game 7 gave him seven in the series and a record 21 in this year’s playoffs, was named the World Series M.V.P.
