Home attendance should be higher than usual, at most stadiums.

Much like the Natties game Saturday. To say that the Natty players were not motivated by having a crowd, would be false. Pressure built on K-rod by having a home crowd rooting against him, and natties had a rare full stadium crowd behind them.

Last 7 years, home teams have won 68 games, while losing the other 37 out of 105 games. 64% of home games in the last 7 years on July 4th.

The last two Sunday July 4th's were in '99, and '04. Home teams won 17, and lost 11. home teams are 61% in that occurrence.

Holidays should attract good crowds to many teams that are not used to full stadiums. Just something to look out for.

it can happen

dolphan34 · 07-04-10, 01:57 AM

Even if they are hitting 60% I doubt you would come up ahead. Look at all that chalk for home teams tomorrow.

Good Luck Houli - Happy 4th

THA_DIESEL · 07-04-10, 02:12 PM

Public got trapped into betting the home teams in the early games. It should continue for the late games.

Houli I hope you stayed away from this angle today
