There is no betting in baseball.

Post by jim »

Maybe, maybe not. Watching the NESN feed tonight (I like them), and they were talking about the friendship of Miller and Kelly, and how they had a little friendly $100 bet on who would get a hit off of each other first.

Immediately I thought ... that's a no-no.

The color guy said "Oh, a hundo" - referencing a $100. Silence for about 10 seconds, and then ...

Of course they were just kidding, because there is no betting in baseball.

So as soon as Shelby hands Joe a hundo they're both banned for life. Serves 'em right.

I'll bet you $100 that if called upon it both players will say the $100 is being donated to the other's favorite charity. In this case, Joe Kelly's favorite charity :wink:
