first five innings only

Baldheadedprick · Jun 8, 2017

I only bet the first five innings in MLB. I do this because I'm betting my starting pitcher that day is good enough to have the lead after 5 innings. I'd bet if you researched your bets that in many cases you're ahead or tied after 5 innings but then your bullpen comes in and loses the game.
We are now far enough into the season for me to start making these bets.
My minimum bet is $50 & my maximum is $300

Thursday 6/8

Diamondbacks -1/2 first 5 +100 100-100
Tigers -1/2 first 5 -125 125-100

How have u fared in the past with these? I like your idea though. Good luck and welcome!

Baldheadedprick · Jun 8, 2017

Over the past 7 years I'm at 59% win rate
Yesterday was a perfect case in point, Cardinals winning after 5 innings, yet they lost the game. If you bet my way you're collecting.
Thank you for the welcome

Good friend of mine plays F5 most of the time for this reason. Ask those that bet Pittsburgh the last couple games how they feel about their bullpen.

It didn't matter. Meltdown by Fuller in that 5th inning....

he only gave up like 9 straight singles.

That line got steamed so hard today. A great day angle to fade

Ended up 1-1 for the day. Disappointed Tiggers melted down in the 5th inning. But caught a break when Diamondbacks scored 2 in the fifth.

1-1 -$25.00
