Extra Innings
All baseball matches will be settled on the official declared result including any extra innings. All team and player statistics accrued during extra innings are included for the purposes of bet settlement.
Listed/Designated/Named Pitchers
Bet Builder baseball bets do not include and are not reliant on listed/designated/named pitchers. If either or both originally announced starting pitchers in a game are scratched or replaced by other pitchers, prior to the match commencing and after any bets have been placed, those bets will stand. Where pitchers may have been listed in or relative to the display of any selections, these will be treated as indicative only, and will not affect or prevent the application of this rule.
Player-Specific Markets
If a player does not participate in a match, selections specific to that player (and therefore the entire bet) will be void. This rule is applied as follows:
1. Selections on hitting / batting markets will be active if the player in question gets at least
one plate appearance. If the player does not appear at the plate, these selections will be
treated as void.
2. Selections on base stealing markets will be active if the player in question enters the game at any point. This includes making a plate appearance but also playing as a fielder, defensive substitute, pinch-runner, and so on. If the player does not enter the game in any such capacity at any point, these selections will be treated as void.
3. Selections on pitching markets will be active if the player in question throws at least one
pitch in the game. If the player does not do so, these selections will be treated as void.
Player selections will be considered active or void per the rules above, regardless of whether a selection may reference a specific period of a match. For instance, a selection on a certain player to get 1+ hits in the first 5 innings of a match would be active (and therefore settled as a loser) if that player only entered the game as a substitute after the 5th inning, and made his plate appearance(s) from that point. However, if that player was injured shortly before the game commenced, was withdrawn from the starting lineup (or bench) and thus did not make any plate appearances, the selection and therefore bet would be void.
Reduced-Innings Matches
Where baseball games are shortened after the match has commenced (e.g. innings reduced due to bad weather), they will be settled according to the following rules:
1. Bets will be void if they include at least one selection involving a player who does not
participate in the game.
2. If every selection within a bet on the game is already a winner where the fact of reduced innings had no impact on the outcome of each selection, the bet in its entirety will be treated as a winner. For example, a 2-leg bet containing an over total runs selection and a certain player to hit a home run, in a game where the required runs total had been reached and the player did hit a home run, and where the match was played with reduced innings, will be treated as a winner. In this case, the game being played with
reduced innings had no impact on either selection. The same would not apply to an under total runs selection where a game is shortened while the total score is still under
the chosen number, as the reduced innings would impact that outcome.
3. If a single selection of a bet has lost and a match is then shortened, the bet will be
treated as a loser, where regardless of the fact of reduced innings, the selection(s) in
question had been irrevocably concluded. For example, a bet including a first team to
score selection, in a game where the other team scored first and the match was
subsequently then played with reduced innings, will be treated as a loser. In this case,
the bet had already lost, and this outcome could not be affected in any way by whether
the game was subsequently shortened or not.
4. If there are no losing selections within a bet and at least one void selection on a match
where innings are reduced after commencement, the bet will be treated as void. This
rule applies where one or more selections are effectively undecided after the reduced
number of innings have been completed, and may still have won or lost if the full
amount of innings had been completed as scheduled. For example, a bet including an
over total runs selection, in a shortened game concluded while the total runs are still
below the required amount, will be treated as void. In this case, the total runs selection
was still undecided and may have won or lost but for the shortening of the match, so the
selection and therefore bet will be voided.
5. The only exception to the rules above is the Match Winner / Money Line / Head-to-
Head market result. This will be settled according to the official league result of the
match – if a game with reduced innings still ends in an official win/loss result per the
relevant league, the Match Winner market will be settled as such.
Matches concluded after 8.5 innings (where the home team is ahead after 8.5 innings and the match is ended there) are not treated as shortened matches. They will be settled as per normal settlement rules and not by the rules presented in this section for matches with reduced innings. This also applies to games scheduled to be 7 innings which finish after 6.5 innings with the home team ahead.
