Las Vegas - Answering the question about the Red Sox - Royals game that was suspended Wednesday night at 4-4 at the end of the 9th inning. The standing rule is, a game needs to go 8.5 innings in order to have a result at the sportsbooks. The game went 9, but almost all the joints are calling the money line a push, because there will not be a result until August 22.

The Mets have continued scorching, winning 6 of the last 7 since the deadline.

In his last two starts, he has NOT given up an earned run over 12 innings. Can not do any better than a 0.00 ERA!
