Dodgers are huge favorites, I thought it would be around -130, up to -155.

Have to bet $155 to win $100.

A Houston win would be a huge upset, rooting for the Astros.

Hitting 6 games in a row is not the easiest thing in the world, but by no means as long odds as winning the lottery.

Big ball games always seem to hang on small things.

Yep... it's the little things. Like hitting and pitching.

LOL...True, but I guess I was more thinking about the small stuff like deciding to run a bit slower than you can or not putting it all on the ball in a throw.

So at -155, he only stands to win $9 million? Feh. Hardly worth walking to the bank to cash the check. ;)

Seems like “he” made the right call if the reports he was leaning to the Dodgers were true.
