Have seen that exact error in left quite a bit over the years, but usually from road outfielders.

They can fix it themselves, especially in the playoffs, and triple it easy
I'm intrigued. Your idea suggests that none of their teammates, coaches, manager or front office personnel would get suspicious ... and that the inside tipsters that MLB likely has in the gaming community wouldn't rat them out.

What’s to stop a rookie pitcher who’s good but young from grooving a pitch or two in the playoffs and having a SO or relative place some bets?

Medina has put together a nice outing. He's definitely been back in the saddle, lookin' for a little affection.

Somebody tell Raffy to haul his ass on that. If Duvall (Or anyone in that spot) tries to go 1st to 3rd and gets thrown out, Raffy may not cross the plate in time.

Had to steal outs with Medina. Made the right call walking Devers, but he's procter'd now

By the way, since it was my complaint about the gambling graphics that preceded the discussion, I am not concerned about players cheating. I just don't like the intrusion into the game that I'm watching. Also, I am concerned about impressionable young people whose judgment may not protect them from losing money they need.

Kike needs to pack it all up (or throw it away). What he can't carry, bury.

It's okay. They run disclaimers.
