I finally bet a boston game. Really liked the braves today for several reasons besides the streak.
1) Bucholz being shelled
2) Braves are strong at home and have a solid bull pen
3) Santana has been strong for about 5 to 6 innings
I make two plays
Braves -0.5 1st Five -> winning 6 - 1 in the top of the 5th with 2 outs and nobody on base. I lost the bet
Braves -129 ML -> Lost at least 8 - 6 (yes I know there is still one chance left for the braves but they will go 1 2 3)
If I am losing by 2 or even 3 runs, I NEVER get the win. But of course, 2 outs with nobody on base and down by 5 runs is no worry for my opponent. Easy pickin for them
