Reason #108 why not to lay -250 in baseball.

Chris Sale pitches his ass off (Sale and Boston was -250, on the road yet)
Sale has shutout deep into the eight inning, man on, end of the bench guy pinch hits an RBI single, a couple of overthrow relays allows the runner to score, long story short, Sale pitches a complete game 4 hitter, loses 1-0 (to Nick Pivetta who was BRILLIANT as well)
Long story short, you pitch a complete game 10K 4 hit game you win 99 times out of 100.

Guess what? This was the one in a hundred, buh bye 250 bucks, pay the book.
Reason #102 was the other night when Steven Stras couldn't get out of his own way as the Nats lost as of -235 favorite.

Today's fun fact #1
Jedd Gyorko's last 18 home runs, 16 of them have been solo shots.
