At pinnacle:

The result of a game is official after 5 innings of play unless the home team is leading after 4.5 innings. 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. Events will not carry over to the following day unless otherwise specified.

Well the game was offical after 5 innings. IF the game were stopped at that point according to their rules... it would have been a loss. But it states if 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.

The game was suspended in the top of the 6th inning with the game tied 2-2. So, if you go by the score when the game was CALLED, it should be no action.


Am i missing something or am I reading too much into this?

It should be a PUSH!!!

I sent an email to Pinnacle. If this wager stands as a loss... I will probably close my account tomorrow and shop for another sportsbook.

According to the rules of the book, if Houston tied the game in the 6th, then it would count as a loss!! If the score AFTER 5 complete innings was 2-1 Cincy, then Cincy would win, according to the books, and Cincy never had a chance to bat in the 6th, so the score reverts back to the end of the 5th!!

I think it's BS, but if that's the rules of the books, then that's the way it goes!! I feel bad for the guys on this game!!
