I had thought that games had to go the full nine for the wager to count

Last night Chicago White Sox lost 2 to 1 in seven innings

Wager was a loss on CWS
Wager was a loss involved in parlays
I realize that baseball is not my favorite sport but somehow I thought games must go 9

That must be only for totals

Silly question for most of you

Thanks

    Game only has to go 5 innings (or 4.5 if the home team is winning) for ML's.

    No, not at all for a novice just starting out in sports wagering. Keep'em coming.

    For anyone who's fairly new to this-- if you're in Vegas, or using an offshore book-- I would suggest reading the sportsbook rules on each sport you bet. They are kind of uniform between books, but not always. For instance, the rules on MLB are different than the rules for college baseball.

    Curious everyone's thoughts on this.

    Same game, player prop hits+runs+rbi's.

    Book has this listed: Must have 1 AB for action

    Book also has this in the rules: All MLB props are official after 9 full innings or 8½ if the home team is winning.

    How do you guys think this should be graded?

    Yeah Goats that is what I thought but BetOnline does not see it that way.

    In regards of your claim on ticket # xxxxxxxx, please note that we do understand that rule states that for MLB props game is official after 9 full innings, however this wager in particular had a disclaimer which states (Must have 1 AB for action) which did happened, therefore bet stands based on its disclaimer.
