Tigers had just scored 3 runs in the top of the inning to take a 3-1 lead. If rained out, the final will be the score at the last full inning completed. Cleveland could win 1-0 still. Talk about home team advantage, Injuns trying to get a cheap one here.</TD></TR><TR UNSELECTABLE="on" hb_tag="1"><TD style="FONT-SIZE: 1pt" height=1 UNSELECTABLE="on">

This is exactly what I was afraid of...can you tell me the weather situation now? If the UMPS asked for the tarp early I am assuming they expect it to pass...It's not up to the Cleveland groundscrew.

Moneyline wagers still stand after 5 innings. Runline wagers are cancelled.

Actually, the game will be NO ACTION, since by league rules it is considered a Suspended Game:

EXCEPTION: If the game is called while an inning is in progress and before it is completed, the game becomes a SUSPENDED game in each of the following situations: (1) The visiting team has scored one or more runs to tie the score and the home team has not scored; (2) The visiting team has scored one or more runs to take the lead and the home team has not tied the score or retaken the lead.
 

If i'm tailing you. Better fade yourself quick!

The Game Is Being Delayed Due To Detroit Possibly Winning This Game In The Bottom Of The Seventh Inning.

Holy shit -- I didn't realize the sportsbook rules, that it reverts to the last completed inning:

From Pinnacle:

The result of a game is official after 5 innings of play unless the home team is leading after 4.5 innings. If a game is called or suspended, the winner is determined by the score after the last full inning unless the home team scores to tie, or takes the lead in the bottom half of the inning, in which case the winner is determined by the score at the time the game is called. Monies will be refunded if the home team ties the game and it is then suspended. Events will not carry over to the following day unless otherwise specified.
