The Padres (+115) took a 4-3 lead into the ninth-inning against the Cubs.San Diego moneyline and under 8.5 bettors just needed a clean Brad Hand save to get to the window.But after getting the first two men out http://www.bravesfanproshop.com/authentic-nick-markakis-jersey , everything went wrong for those who backed the under and/or underdog.Thanks to a Padres throwing error, the Cubs tied the game 3-3 in the top of the fifth inning on an unearned run. The game would grind to a halt from that point on, which had to please under 8.5 bettors. That score held until Austin Hedges hit a two-out RBI single in the bottom of the eighth-inning to give San Diego a 4-3 lead. The Padres had a chance to add to their lead, but they stranded two more runners. They finished the night 1-of-9 with runners in scoring position, and left 10 men on base.Under 8.5 and Padres moneyline (+115) backers just needed a clean Brad Hand save in the top of the ninth to cash their tickets. And with the bottom of the Cubs order due up, those folks had to like their chances, right?Hand got off to a peachy start, getting both Ben Zobrist and Ian Happ out to start the inning. With two outs and nobody on, the Cubs sent up backup catcher Victor Caratini to pinch-hit for the pitcher. That’s when things went downhill for those who had money on the under and/or the underdog.Hand completely lost command of his fastball and hit Caratini with a pitch after getting behind in the count. That turned the lineup over Chipper Jones Jersey , brining Anthony Rizzo to the plate. Hand got behind once again, but came back to make the count full. Caratini got a nice jump from first, and Rizzo doubled him home to tie the game.That sent all under tickets up in flames, but Padres moneyline still had a shot. Hope was restored for those that backed the Fathers after Hand struck out Albert Almora Jr. to end the inning with the game still tied 4-4.Pedro Strop then entered the game for the Cubs to face the top of the San Diego order. As someone who bet the Padres, it felt like they needed to get it done in walk-off fashion against Strop. But they never even came close to scoring, as Strop struck out the side.Extra innings.At this point, under backers already started capping tomorrow’s card, but side bettors were still fully engaged.Adam Cimber came in for the Padres and got Kris Bryant to ground out to start the inning, but then Javier Baez reached on an infield single. Baez then attempted to steal second John Smoltz Jersey , which led to a throwing error by the catcher and then an error on the center fielder (who bobbled the errant throw). That allowed Baez to score an unearned run from first on a steal attempt — Chicago’s second unearned run of the game.To add insult to injury, Cimber retired the next two Cubs with ease.Trailing 5-4, the Padres still had a shot in the bottom of the 10th against Cubs closer Brandon Morrow. But after getting the leadoff man on base, they went quietly into the San Diego night — much to the delight of the thousands of Cubs fans that filled Petco Park.I just hope nobody out there had the Padres and the under. Godspeed if you did. FORT MYERS, Fla. (AP) — Don’t expect AL MVP Mookie Betts to agree to a long-term contract with the Boston Red Sox before he can become a free agent in late 2020.Despite Mike Trout’s $432 million, 12-year agreement with the Los Angeles Angels, Nolan Arenado’s $260 million, eight-year deal with the Colorado Rockies and Alex Bregman’s pending $100 million, six-year contract with the Houston Astros Matt Kemp Jersey , Betts is content to remain on track for testing the market.“That’s exactly what I expect,” he said Wednesday, the day after Trout’s deal became widely known. “Didn’t expect anything to happen until I’m a free agent. So, it’s just one of those things where you just got to go out and play. Can’t worry about the economics of the game right now. They have to take care of what they have to take care of. I’m going to take care of what I have to take care of. But the common thing is to win a World Series, and I think that’s definitely what we both want to do.”Manny Machado joined the San Diego Padres as a free agent on a $300 million, 10-year deal while Bryce Harper signed with the Philadelphia Phillies for $330 million over 13 seasons.Betts, 26, one of the best players in baseball since making his major league debut in 2014, has a $20 million Hank Aaron Jersey , one-year contract and is eligible for arbitration again next winter.“I’m under no pressure to do anything,” Betts said. “It’s OK for two sides to disagree. That’s perfectly fine. It’s normal. I got two more years, going to make the best of them. Got to worry about Year 1 right here. I’m going out and doing my best to help the team win, and also next year. It’s just one of those things where it’s all right to disagree.”Betts said he loves Boston and playing for the Red Sox. But he also has other things in mind.“I’ve definitely grown to love going up north in the cold and all those type of things,” he said. “But it definitely doesn’t mean I want to sell myself short of my value.“Everybody values different things — what do you value, where you’re going to be in five years.“I definitely don’t pay that much attention to it that far in the future. I kind of worry about what’s going on now and just being treated fairly. I think that’s just kind of the main thing.“The biggest thing in my mind is just to be treated fairly.”
