The next time I bet on Boston this season -- I'm talking about under any circumstances -- remind me of this night.

**No coincidences** · 08-18-14, 09:03 PM

Un. Fvcking. Real.

Wow Boston.

You can't make this shit up.

Are they trying to lose?

judging by by the error that just happened, yes.

**No coincidences** · 08-18-14, 09:05 PM

Well, to be honest and in retrospect, it did make sense that a 56-67 team would be a virtual PK with a horrific starter against a 72-50 opponent. I hope everyone who locked Boston in at +120 this morning can beat off to beating the closer by a quarter.

could say the same for the cubs, rockies on the road, twinks, etc, how could i forget the mets

This tweet pretty much sums up the Red Sox:

Farrell is a great skipper. Take out a starter w/ only 89 pitches for a reliever who's worked 10/15 August games. GREAT skipper! #RedSox

**BigDofBA** · 08-18-14, 09:09 PM

Workman was cruising. I didn't understand that either.

Let him vent.

**BigDofBA** · 08-18-14, 09:13 PM

At least Boston is getting the automatic outs out of the way in the 8th instead of the ninth.

**thetrinity** · 08-18-14, 09:13 PM

coins a good guy, i would hate to be around him if the dbags give up a homer with a man on though

Wow.

Bases loaded and no one out and nothing? Really?

Put the fvcking bat on the ball.

**No coincidences** · 08-18-14, 09:16 PM

Suck my fvcking c0ck, Washington.

It would be all too fitting if Boston didn't score at all here.

**BigDofBA** · 08-18-14, 09:31 PM

The middle of the Boston order is up. Angels have them right where they want them.

**BigDofBA** · 08-18-14, 09:35 PM

Despite out hitting the Angels and having way more base runners, Boston did just enough to lose.

**No coincidences** · 08-18-14, 09:42 PM

I live bet the Reds at +220 a while back.

Can't wait to see how they f\*\*k this one up.

**No coincidences** · 08-18-14, 09:46 PM

Unreal.

What a night. Wow.

**No coincidences** · 08-18-14, 09:48 PM

So much for dogs barking after the ASB.

**Ralphie1412** · 08-18-14, 09:50 PM

Add Robin Ventura to that list. Bellasarios gets 2 outs and was cruising. 5 run 8th inning ensues. These guys just guess.

Baltimore beating Chris sale at home was huge. Phillies beating Seattle was Huge. Atl was a dog also

**No coincidences** · 08-18-14, 09:54 PM

You've got to be fvcking kidding me.

Again.

Baltimore is 70-52, yet they were +160 vs. the shitty 59-65 White Sox. You honestly think that was a "huge dog" to cash against the public? I don't care if Sale was pitching or not.

Braves? That was a virtual PK. No real difference there.

Bottom line: outside of Philly beating Seattle, this was a huge day for the public, culminated by this bullshit StL win.

Yea I do, When Sale pitches, most bettors bet on him. Lines mostly generate on baseball from starting pitcher, unlike any other sport. U tellin me people weren't betting on someone like Jose Fernandez when the marlins were below .500 team last year?

today 4 favs won 4 dogs won. Can't expect every dog to win, especially shit teams like zona

and we are all the public, u should be happy when public wins and bookies lose.

I side with the books and the lines they make. That's how I make my money. You know that. When the "public" has a field day, I lose my ass. How else do you think I have a .500 record and finish up as many units as I do?

Any time the Nats or Angels or Cardinals come up with bullshit wins like they did tonight, it's a horrible day for me. That was the fvcking trifecta, along with the Royals for good measure.

The next time Jay Bruce comes up with a clutch hit will be the first.

Bruce RBI double to tie it. Hope u win Cincy

**No coincidences** · 08-18-14, 10:07 PM

I need to clarify something here, paco, because it's one of the biggest misconceptions at SBR: I am not at all denying the fact that we are all the public. Absolutely. But that doesn't mean we all have to bet like the public. There is a huge difference.

**EXhoosier10** · 08-18-14, 10:09 PM

Hope it doesn't come down to this guy trying to win it for you, coin. Jumbo Diaz, Reds bullpen pitcher extraordinaire

Agreed. But doesn't mean u should bet against the public with shit teams like Zona, Texas etc. Maybe just lay off of those. GL
