In all my years of betting, I don't think I've ever seen a total of 5.5

    Baseball I mean. I might go over small just for the hell of it. (NYM/SD)

      Yes he is. It only takes a few bounces of the ball though to go over 5.5. I'm not really recommending it, but I'll give it a shot.

        One thing I've learned, if they are making the line at 6.5, or less, the oddsmakers REALLY wish they could make it lower than that.

          I think I saw Degrom total recently at closer to 5.0.

            I agree and that's why I went small. I think Musgrove might give up just enough runs (although he is good too.)

                Isn't every national league post season game 5.5?

                    Are you sure hawker?

                    It happend 4 times on May 29th of this year, with two of those being 5, and twice on May 27th with one of those being 5. There was a 5 on May 4th and a 5.5 on April 21st. Before that it happened 4 times in September last year.

                    That's twelve times since last September.

                    It's happened 36 times in the last 10 years but a third of them in the last two seasons. You have to go back to 2016 to get the next one and 2011 had 12 instances itself.

                    The OVER is 17-19 in those 36 times and of those last 12 the OVER is 6-6.

                    So it happens.

                      Kershaw was in 14 of those 36 games.
                      Tim Lincecum in 6.
                      Cory Luebke and Mat Latos were each in 5 of them.

                        I remember once long ago, this may have been ten years ago, I took under 6.5 in a game featuring two guys who were killing it, I can’t remember who. Want to say Greinke and someone else, their WHIPs at the time were like .6 and .7 or some shit. And it was 1-0 going into the 9th and the final ended up being 5-1. It won but the whole time I was like “you gotta be fukking KIDDING me.” So yes, just takes a little here and there to get to 6 runs, and most likely neither starter will go the distance so yeah, not the worst idea on earth.

                                      On a 8.5 total you can only get 2 to 1 odds on the alternative total 6.5 are alternative totals a rip off guys

                                                So it happens.

                                                Almost got there. It was really just a messing around bet.

                                                My memory must have been a little off. I didn't realize that their were so many.

                                                These oddsmakers are good.

                                                deGrom is just great.

                                                  4 runs is an offensive explosion for this Mets team.

                                                      I'm kind of embarrassed now. In my defense, I take a lot of the summer off (not all of it though).

                                                      Next time I see that, I'm going under.
