All star game tonight overtime rule

[EGrecu]

They said they'll have a homerun derby to decide. Does that mean if the game is 3-3, the final score will be 4-3 based on whoever wins the derby or will each homerun count as a run?

U r joking right???

Seemed like a very fair question. First I've heard of it and I have no idea as to to the answer.

[WRMusic]

This is a great question. I’ve been wondering the same thing. Obviously would make a HUGE difference as far as betting any run lines…

[d2bets]

Fanduel says:

"In the event of a tie after 9 innings, winner will be determined by a HR Derby. All markets will be settled per official MLB box score".

Which doesn't really answer the questions as to how the "official MLB box score" will read in the case of a home run derby. Maybe they don't know lol

4-3

4-3

Source?

Seeing books offer props like "AL to win by exactly 1 run". So if they win by the derby, does that cash? Sounds like a dispute waiting to happen.

[Optional]

4-3

I'd guess that is most likely too. Like a tennis tie breaker or penalty shootout win in soccer.

But also need to know if the book rules say if OT counts or not for totals I'd think.

[Kermit]

so a 1-1 game could turn into a 6-5 game

There is no way they would count each home run as a run. It's a tiebreaker. But ya. Dispute waiting to happen for sure

I see Draftkings has a winning margin prop. Each team listed to win by 1, 2, 3 or 4+. So what do they do if it goes to the hr derby? Grade everything a loss because it doesn't count for props?

It’s pretty clear to me that whoever wins the derby will win by one run. It’s like penalty kicks. Each penalty kick doesn’t count as its own goal. Or like a hockey shootout

[pavyracer]

U r joking right???

I think he is talking about the total.

[thetrinity]

Yeah don’t see any other way to do it aside from adding a run to whoever wins the derby. Rule favors the under for sure

[Mike Huntertz]

I think he is talking about the total.

The total is 8.....thre could be a lot of people upset what ever the rule is going to be.
I'll go with post #13 as the most logical.

[slayer14]

Does anyone smell bullshite here

[KiDBaZkiT]

Good. Sounds like it would be quicker than extra innings.

[pavyracer]

Check the fineprint with the total. It could say total is valid for 9 innings only.

[Kermit]

I see props are valid for 9 innings.

So if it is 4-4 after 9 and you have over 8.5, you lose?

[Roscoe_Word]

Maybe we'll find out in a couple hours.

[7deuceoff$uit]

Umps have to be doing everything in this one to keep the score even if it's tied late.

[Machba]

HAMMER The OVER

[d2bets]

I see props are valid for 9 innings.

So if it is 4-4 after 9 and you have over 8.5, you lose?

In my mind, a total isn't a prop.

But if it's listed as an alternate total? Who knows. Whatever the book says, I guess.

[unde0087]

U r joking right???

Probably about as much as a joke as the Cardinals thread is

[tmoible]

Bullshit rule I don’t really like it

[texhooper]

I think with the props they’re covering their ass if you take over on homers for someone who ends up being in the overtime derby

[KiDBaZkiT]

Maybe we'll find out in a couple hours.

Nah. The NL has no balls. They got their entire offense for the night in the first inning. Then they trotted out some cat lover who gives up 3 runs instantly
