O/U on Lee (ERA 0.67) vs Volquez (ERA 1.26)

[kinosh]

In the Cle/Cin game, the total opened 7.5 -106 under, and closed 7.5 -125 over, so lots of money on the over. You have two pitchers with the best ERAs in baseball and the offenses not exactly lighting up the board. Yet there is pressure on the over, and the game goes over. How did bettors predict this correctly?

ill tell you and this is what i put out.

Chase 30
c) Indians Over 7.5 (+100)

it was part of my Chase system, the Indians had played 7 straight Unders..

it does fly in the face of handicapping, doesnt it?

That's a small total for a bandbox ballpark.

Yeah, but these two teams played Friday (Cin 4-3) and Sat (Cin 4-2). Same park, same bullpens. The only difference is the starting pitching.

As big as my mancrush is on Josh Hamilton, Rangers sure could've given Volquez at least another shot
