    Spread bets Are No Action if Mercy Rule?
    China seems like one of the best bets ever if this is true that they need 8.5 innings

    If Japan is up 13-0 after 7 it is no action right?

    Not for the WBC. The explanation I was given is because the game isn't shortened for a reason like weather, it stands. I can see some scam type books taking shots at players on it though.

      Well ML bets would stand after five innings anyway. It is the other offerings where you need to check the rules of your book.

        Oh I see, could be 13-0 within the first four innings. Again, I would check with book.

            It would need to be 15-0 in the 4th. It's 10 runs after 7 or more and 15 any time before then.

                I looked up the rule and they stop it in the middle of the inning, wow Japan has to get up 12 by the bottom of the 6th or they cannot cover unless they hit a 3 run homer or grand slam
