One of the craziest walk-off finishes you’ll see as a sports bettor
Rafael Devers appeared to hit a walk-off ground-rule double, and everyone thought the Giants had won 8-6. But in the bottom of the 10th, Luis Arraez was the automatic runner on second.
On a ground-rule double, Arraez is automatically awarded home but he still has to touch the plate.
Instead, Arraez celebrated before touching home. The Padres appealed the missed plate, the run was erased, and the official scoring was changed.
Devers was credited with a walk-off single and 1 RBI, and the Giants officially won 7-6 instead of 8-6. Giants -1.5 lost.
