14-13 Padres win with 4 runs in the top 9th. First some clutch hitting as Greg Garcia tripled off Wade Davis with two outs to tie the game. Then one of the stranger things you'll see - 2x intentional walks to the 7th and 8th place hitters to load the bases and what happens next, pinch hitter draws a walk to force in the go-ahead run. Somewhat fishy, I guess moreso for anyone who bet the Rockies.
Results: June 16 = -4.19 units (3-5 W/L)
OVERALL: -12.11 units (61-69-4 W/L/D)
3-5 W/L today playing underdogs in 8 of the games. Lost both of the big bets today (-4 units x 2 right there).
Toronto would have been a better contributor to positive units today had I played the +200 ML instead of the Team Total vs. Houston. Surprise type of game there with Toronto winning 12-0 score.
Anyway, not too disappointed as it was probably too many picks, with about 18 units at risk. Honestly, I was fooled on a couple picks - Philly got blown out (-1 unit), and San Fran (-4 units) too big of a risk amount on that team trying to sweep Milwaukee - Giants did have baserunners a few times but couldn't do any damage.
game update: Pirates tie it up in the bottom 7th after the relief pitcher for the Tigers paid back with a throwing error of his own, allowing Kang to reach first then second base. Score 4-4 but Pirates did strand runners at 2nd and 3rd base right there when Starling Marte struck out on a full count chasing a changeup in the dirt. Marte is 0-4 with two strikeouts in this game.
Sweating this garbage and still don't like the looks of it
Results: July 1 = +6.73 units (5-2 W/L)
OVERALL: -45.38 units (74-92-4 W/L/D)
Teams are just beyond the halfway point of the regular season, with the All-Star Game coming up next week.
My picks had much better results today. Although it might have looked like I was just dart-throwing a bunch of underdogs, there were actual reasons for the picks.....
You know, the same way I had reasons for losing the first -52 units.
But now as July arrives, and the 2nd half of the season, could mark the turn around of my results.
18-picks below .500 on the win/loss, just like the Miami Marlins right now.
Results: July 2 = +5.44 units (3-2 W/L)
OVERALL: -39.94 units (77-94-4 W/L/D)
Wed. July 3
BALTIMORE +193 ML // 1 unit to win 1.93
CINCINNATI -1.5 +140 runline // 1 unit to win 1.40
Seems like weather is favorable for Overs in most of the 7pm eastern starts early games especially, but my methods indicate Unders would be played if not considering weather. So its a pass on totals for me.
