by PHAT JULIO on Sep 22, 2009 6:17 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
That’s just because of baseball rules. Dodgers win more often, but the most likely score is almost always the home team winning a run one game. Due to walk offs and not having to bat in the B9th with a lead. In otherwords, it’s called math.

Can the Nationals light up Bills tomorrow? I mean, the Nationals are playing as if they couldn’t beat my little cousin’s baseball team right now. But “anything can happen”. Judging tonight, how likely will bills get a QS?
