Change #3

Rule 15 SPORT SPECIFIC RULES is amended as follows:

15.5 Baseball

(a) The final score will include extra innings where applicable.

(b) The nominated starting pitchers must throw the first pitch of the game for their respective teams for match bets to stand. If either nominated starting pitcher does not throw the first pitch for their respective teams, all bets on the match will be declared Void.

(c) For head to head bets the game is official after 5 innings of play. If the home team is leading, the game is official after 4½ innings of play. If a game goes past 5 innings (including any extra innings) and is subsequently called off, the winner is determined by the score after the last full inning of play (except in the case when the home team score to tie, or take the lead in the bottom half of the inning in which the game is called off – the runs do count). However if any game is in delay or play is suspended and subsequently the game is played to completion (on the original start day or the next), the result will be determined by the final score upon completion of the game.

(d) For total combined run bets to stand, 9 innings (or 8½ innings if the home team is leading) must be completed, with the exception that bets will stand once the run total is exceeded.

(e) For run line bets to stand, 9 innings (or 8½ innings if the home team is leading) must be completed.

(f) In the event of a tie, Rule 14.13 Dead Heats will apply to head to head bets. Winning team and margin bets will be Void.

(g) If a game is abandoned or postponed in its entirety to another day then bets are Void.
