Well, you said 'everything' was going to be a push. Totals might be an exception. I thought we saw this in a Cubs game earlier this year when Pittsburgh took the lead in the top of the inning but the game was called because of rain. Pittsburgh was graded a loss, Cubs a win because all wagers had to be graded the same night and ML reverted to last completed inning.
I could be wrong and delusional though.

IF They made the Game Official AFTER the 8th inning ...the CARDS Would WIN on the Moneyline , But totals n Run lines would be Pushes / no Bets .
But As the Situation Was in the 9th , THere Was A CHANCE the Game WOULD BE SUSPENDED into The Next Day ....IN That CASE , EVERYTHING Wouldve Been a PUSH/ Non BET ..that's What I was refering to !
"If a game is called <b>or suspended</b>, 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. "
StL ML would win if the game was suspended
rule taken from pinny, but it's pretty universal
illini....IF THE GAME WAS SUSPENDED into the Next DAY ...Then Moneylines Would NOT Be Graded !!!!!
NOw What YOU are referring To IS The Game Be' in Officially CALLED in the Ninth.THEN OF cOURSE The CARDS WOULD WIN on the MONEYLINE !!!
BUT...There Are Times When They Continue / or SUSPEND the Game into NEXT day ....THEN , I BELIEVE I AM 100% CORRECT ......NOTHING COUNTS including Moneylines...that's What I was Referring To Bud! SO YOU're WRONG !!!...hee..hee:thumbsup:
You're right and wrong according to the rule.
"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. "
Would have been 8-4, not 8-6 ML graded. Scores would have been reverted according to that phrase to last inning and the 2 runs not counted from the top of the 9th.
Vegas would have graded it 8-4. If all stats were counted in grading, the scenerio in question (The Pittsburgh/Cubs game) then Pittsburgh would have been graded a win after taking the lead in the top half of the inning. Instead they were a loss, despite scoring more runs. I'm not questioning whether the stats would have counted in the game, but grading wise it would have been 8-4. And as you said they would 'Not have reverted' (the score), is the only reason why I'm aruging this now stale conversation.
Whether or not the books revert the score is irrelevant. Who wins is the only thing that's important, since moneylines are the only bets with action. MLB would not have reverted. In that Cubs game, the Cubs were trailing when they took the lead in the top half. The game was then suspended, and Pittsburgh was declared the winner at the books after reverting back.
Kind of fucked up. Cubs were leading when the game was suspended, and they ended up winning the game. But they lost the moneyline. I think the only reason the books won't change it is because if it rains out the next day, they don't want a pending straight bet for 2 months. They want the bettors to have funds available to lose to them. Because really, they should change the rule. Betting on the moneyline should be a winner if your team wins. That's the definition of a moneyline bet.
