Red Sox/Mariners over 7.5 Dice-K is unpredictable. Fister hasn't pitched well in a long time. How this game isn't lined at 9 is beyond me. Would love to hear a dissenting opinion, because 7.5 just doesn't make sense to me.
Estabrook is home plate ump.
13 of his 18 have gone under.
Neither team is hitting well.
Matsuzaka has pitched well on the road, lately.
But, I can't make a strong case for the under.
The number is just too small.
Not trying to get you off the bet.
You wanted a dissenting vote.
Thanks for the post Tim. I liked the play also and it saved me some money!! Had a chance with the bases juiced in the 8th and no out but Itchy hits into double play. Ouch!!
The adage in limit poker is that saving a bet is the same thing as winning an extra one. A similar concept can be applied here, although the case can be made that it could have gone either way! I was expecting a game like KC/NYY turned out. Way off.
