Was thinkign bout playing the No at -180, any thoughts on whether this is a good or bad bet and why? figured each pitcher would come out sharp in the first innign with no runs

i actually made this bet on the game sunday night at -170, i think i'd make this bet every game of the world series come to think of it for the same reason as you put up - go for it [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

At -180 there is no way I'd bet this. Its suprising how often teams score in the 1st.

the fact thats its the world series doesnt mean much.

i would be more concerend with who the pitcher was, his performance in the first inning over his career, the first three batters he is going to face etc.

i would be much more concerned about his postseason record in the first inning - that's just me, though

i'm just arguing for arguments sake at this point i think

so a sample of say 5 is more important to you than 100+?

I agree about -180 being a no way. Not suprised by how often the best hitters on a team push one across.
