One bettor in Dublin had himself a pretty good day this week, all thanks to his betting on the home team in every MLB game on Tuesday.
According to ESPN.com's David Purdum, a 46-year-old bettor at the William Hill sportsbook in the United Kingdom turned a (relatively) small parlay betinto more than $100,000. That bet may have been the result of nothing more than luck.
Here was Tuesday's slate of games:
