MLB 2021

[Skids]

Red Sox take it in the 13th to come from losing the opener to taking a 2 - 1 series lead.
Tampa Bay robbed in the 13th when a long fly ball bounced off the wall then off a Red Sox outfielder and went over the wall. The runner on first easily made it home, but was sent back to 3rd after a conference between the ref's and the video ref's.

* Update that, technically the correct call. Unlucky, not robbed.

Astros 5 - White Sox 3 bottom of the 3rd.

Looking at a few stats leading into the 3rd game between the GIANTS and the Dodgers.

Playing away holds no fears for the GIANTS, having won 20 of their last 26 away games, including 3 (of 6) against the Dodgers @ Dodger Stadium.

Exactly the same holds true for the Dodgers when it comes to games at home... yep, from their last 26 games at home, they've won 20, with 50% of their losses, at the hands of the GIANTS.

The pitching match up is intriguing. Sherzer has hardly been seen by the Giants hitters. Brandon Crawford having faced him the most (6 at bats) in the last 3 years, for 4 hits.
I'm guessing the Dodgers will use quite a few from the bullpen in this game.
Wood on the other hand, knows his opponents well, having played with them for 5 seasons. Has a handy record against them this season, but, they also know him well.

I'm punting on this with a Giants heart and hope as the underdogs.

Giants win/total under 6.5 @ $6.40

For the Giants to win, we need it to be a grind. Wood has to be on song right from the start.

Wood Over 4.5 strikeouts @ $2.05

Couple of Novelty bets; Crawford to hit a HR @ $6, Posey to have 2+ hits @ $3.60 & White Sox/Rays to both tie up their series @ $3.65.

[Skids]

Braves move ahead 2 - 1 in their series against the Brewers with a 3 - 0 win.

Due to rain in Chicago, the White Sox/Astros game has been delayed until Tuesday morning (8pm tonight WA time).

[Skids]

Red Sox jump out to an early 3 - 0 lead in the 3rd.

5 runs in the third, all coming after 2 out.
Tampa need to respond to stay in the series.

Great comeback Tampa! 5 all in the 8th.
Put $25 on them when they were $9 in the 5th.

[Skids]

Giants lead 1 - 0 after 5 innings.

[Skids]

Still 1 - 0.... Dodgers to bat the 9th.

[Skids]

GIANTS take it!
