If the team you bet on gets down 5 or 6 runs, don't worry your team will come back, but if you they are up 5 or 6 runs, be very worried.

WTF is going on today, Fish can't hold the lead, Tigers on the verge of blowing it, nobody wants to win the sox/indians game.

I am on indians and Jays, so needless to say I need a drink after these games.

Bullpens are terrible and managers have no idea how to use them. Now I remember why I only bet on baseball for 3 or 4 weeks last year before calling it quits. It's kind of hard to predict the numerous meltdowns that will occur in these games. Maybe I'll take a crack at the first 5 innings bets. At least that way I won't get reamed by bad bullpens and stupid managerial decisions.

P.S. Your Indians bet looks pretty good. Heart of the order coming up and Matt Thornton out there for the Sox. Knowing Ozzie he'll leave him out there forever simply because the Sox are down by a run now.

Hafner with a leadoff double and Thornton inexplicably stays in the game. Looks like the Sox are conceding this one. Funny thing is if they were UP by a run they would be busting their balls to try and win the game. I like how managers throw in the towel as soon as they get down by a run.

Indians did it but they made it interesting in the 9th like they always do.They never seem to retire the opponent in order with game on the line.A win is a win though, congrats.

Congrats on the win. Numerous chances for the Sox to tie it up in the 8th and 9th but they couldn't get it done. They are going to blow A LOT of leads with that bullpen. Sisco and Thornton as their only lefties??? Yikes!

I was turned the game on in the car and Farmer had me worried with his call on the last out. He kept saying, he's going back back back, at the track at the wall he dives and he dropped it, wait no he caught it. I almost drove off the road.

:142smilie Yeah, when I saw the replay I couldn't believe it. At first I thought Michaels misplayed it badly but I think the wind may have gotten it. It was an adventure to say the least!

Well the same is holding true for my evening bets as well.

Braves down 2-0 in the 9th, they've tied it, now Balt was down 7-0, but starting to show signs of life. They've got them right where they want them.
