We were sitting on the under 7 1/2 last night with a 2-0 score in the top of the 9th.

These middle pitchers in MLB absolutely SUCK! They always have a starter pitch for 6-8 innings and they come in about 2-5 of them and give up a shitload of runs.

With a man on 3rd and the score 7-0, a middle reliever for the NY Yankees comes in with no pressure at home and a difinte loss and THROWS A WILD PITCH. Not even close to the strike zone. Then he still has the runner out and takes his eye off the ball and doesn't even catch it! We would yell at a little leaguer for that.

How do the announcers not mention the total on the game being 7 1/2 and that happening last night for the total change...How do they not say anything? They absolutely suck as announcers.

Thanks for listening. Over players had no business winning that last night.

Ernie Johnson - "Sergio Mitre is coming in now to pitch for the Yankees and to help take care of all the over backers which by the way in case you didn't know out there America is seven and a half."

BDUBB-

I dont expect them to announce lines. Just a little something, maybe Sergio had the over himself. It should be brought up in someway. This isn't a stupid thread ass, just something to discuss. I wasn't just pointing out that they should have said something, I was pointing out how ridiculous the total was last night and how it came into play. There are times where you feel someone from vegas gets on the hotline and calls a manager directly.

What professional pitcher on his first pitch for the biggest team in MLB, the NY Yankees throws a wild pitch like that and then cant even handle the toss for a difinite out at the plate. Little Leaguers would be ridiculed for it.

Screw you....F*CKSTICK!

Youre an idiot to think that Ernie Johnson would ever say anything about Gambling.

You clearly lost the bet because the odds weren't announced, thats the only reason why.

Al Michaels has had some subtle hints to the totals.  "this game is now officially OVER"

Watched a Knick game years ago.  Knicks up 15 last minute of the game and the fans start chanting "cover cover cover"  Marv Albert says "apparantly the remaining fans have some sort of wager on tonights game"
