    What a terrible day
    Almost every team I was on had a lead and surrendered it: NYY, DET, PIT, SEA, SD -1.5, now midgets just went from 5-5 to 5-10. Just plain horrible day.

      Don't watch the games. Just look at the final score, it's much easier on your heart. Baseball has no timeclock thus no lead is safe. When it's running bad like that, take a day off or two.

        The real games not to watch are games you have the over under or team total unders on. You basically think to yerself you have the win in the 8th "cough White Sox and Astros team total under" and then they bring in some scrub who's never pitched a game before to fk you. Basketball is so much more enjoyable to watch and bet imo because when they are up 20 and the 2nd half starts and they don't come out flat it's ballgame. Baseball they can bring in any scrub at any random time and screw you. I'm still profiting off baseball but fk is it ever stressful and more difficult to cap with relief pitchers and wind and umps and all these other factors that make it so difficult.

          Agreed. Baseball is so tough because of that. All good till the bottom 7/8th and then boom shit cant hit the fan.

          AND

          162 games.... can't win them all so the dog gunna bite sooner or later which hurts...

            Bet more dogs. Sweating 1 run leads will lead you to an early grave.

                Thanks everybody. I do not know what was I thinking taking tigers at ~-220. Well, lesson learned. I'll try to stop watching the scores compulsively and probably limit my betting to just a few games.
