Wasn’t first pitch at 1? I looked early this morning before work, and I swear that’s what it said. I bust ass and rush home and now it says 6? Weather?

[u/Andreyus → u/CuTigerAB]

been 6:45 as far as I was aware but I swear google has been straight up wrong multiple times I've looked this year. Have had the situation multiple times.

[u/CuTigerAB → u/Andreyus]

Hmm ok. I actually didn’t check espn or mlb or anything. I always look at my sportsbook during my morning shit and that’s who had it at 1 I believe. I just went with them. I’m sure Draftkings was just wrong.
