Wagering on Spring Games is permitted at online sportsbooks in Pennsylvania.

Last year, the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board implemented certain modifications such as wagering limitations and no prop betting on preseason MLB action. A rep from the PGCB said they “likely” will keep those limitations in place to mitigate risk.

Of course, once Opening Day arrives, it will be “Play Ball” as usual for bettors.

Spring Training games in 2021

The reason we were curious about Spring Training betting getting the okay this year is because the games are going to look slightly different. Here are rules for the length of Spring Training games per the 2021 Operations Manual:

“Games from the start of Spring Training through March 13 will be scheduled as seven-inning games, though they can be shortened to five innings or lengthened to nine innings upon mutual agreement of both managers. From March 14 until the end of camp, games will be scheduled for nine innings, though managers can mutually decide to shorten to seven innings. Clubs must notify MLB of any game length modifications by 5 p.m. ET the day before the game.”

A decrease in dingers?

Home run prop bettors take notice.

The past five years have been big for home runs. Five of the six highest home run rates in MLB history occurred during that time; The other was in 2000 AKA the steroid era.

However, 2021 might end the current heyday for homers as the league is “deadening” the ball.

Axios reported:

“MLB is slightly altering the construction of its baseballs in the hopes of deadening them off the bat. The league sent a memo to all 30 teams outlining changes that would “center the ball within the specification range” of bounciness — a range that has always been wide enough for significant variance among balls.”

Philadelphia Health Commissioner Dr. Thomas Farleysaid:

“I can’t guarantee anything, but I can say that it’s likely that there would be some fans in the stands at the Phillies home opener. How many is going to depend not just on us, but also what the state decides.”

Last week, the Philadelphia Flyers and the Sixersalso requested to have limited fans in attendance. The Phillies requested limited capacity, also.

Dr. Farley noted that the requests need approval from the State of Pennsylvania since the city of Philadelphia cannot be less restrictive.
