The numbers told the story, they always do. It's one of those idiots who believe in analytics. This is a numbers game with Gill Alexander on VSiN.

**Gill Alexander** (0:39)
Good Tuesday morning to you. This is a numbers game at VSiN, eSports betting network, vsin.com, GamePlus, iHeart, Radio, YouTube TV, and of course, Sirius XM Channel 158 Gill Alexander in San Francisco this week.
Kelley Bydlon back at the mothership. At the VSiN studios, Cirque du Resort Casinos. What's happening, man? Not a mooch. Oh, how you doing?

**Kelley Bydlon** (1:00)
I'm doing very well.

**Gill Alexander** (1:01)
San Francisco, man. I don't know again. You guys should really check it out sometime.

**Kelley Bydlon** (1:05)
I don't know.

**Kelley Bydlon** (1:06)
You're really missing out, man. You're really missing out. It's been like, you know, mid 100s degrees here. It's like 103 It's just great. Just great. It's a good feeling when you just run some really simple errands in the afternoon and you're so exhausted by the end of it. You just have to sit down. It's really sad.

**Gill Alexander** (1:21)
That sounds terrible. It really does. I don't miss that for a second. But I'll be back soon. Today on the show, Joe Sheehan joins Talk Major League Baseball, including, of course, the Red Sox 14 game winning streak, all cozied up in the month of July, which means a little something for some of us around here. Drew Dinsick. I don't know what we're going to talk to Drew about. Probably his recap of the Tour de France of the World Cup, but also maybe some Tour de France bets if he has any for us. NBA, NFL, I don't know. Spotluck with Drew, Michael Montesano's got some college football for us as well. A few futures. Looking forward to talking to him. And then later, Mark Borchardt, base winner, off his unbelievable handicap of the home run derby last week, which must be discussed one more time. Just ridiculous how well he performed in that. Absolutely was incredible. Had three of the four. He made three bets. All three got to the semis. And then we cashed on Jordan Walker, which was just awesome.
We'll also look at some other things, including number one seeds in Major League Baseball, playoff odds in Major League Baseball. We'll do a bunch of that.
I'll get to the Red Sox here momentarily and we'll get to the tennis plays because all the tennis plays have already started. For subscribers, vsin.com/pixel, we'll review those here momentarily. But before we do anything else, Kelley, we had an assignment here at VSin, all the on air folks I believe did when I was gone.
I wanted to run through these and I'd like for you to grade mine because we had an assignment of doing, and I think this is a great idea that Steve Cohen came up with, 30 second evergreen bedding tips that I guess will run during breaks, I suppose, on different platforms. You did yours already?

**Kelley Bydlon** (3:12)
Yep, did mine last week or the week before. It was great. Those have been recorded and I will grade yours now. Yeah, if you want me to do that. Would you like a letter grade? Would you like stars? How do you want me to do this? Actually, you know what? I'm just going to make it up as I go. Never mind. Why would I ask you make it up as you go?

**Gill Alexander** (3:29)
By the way, I heard you did. The one that I heard that you did was a long teasers.

**Kelley Bydlon** (3:33)
Yeah, you did that, right? Yeah.

**Kelley Bydlon** (3:34)
OK, I'd already Eric Jordan here. Yeah, I did. I know key numbers in football. I mean, I'm sure I'm sure I wanted I wanted to be one of the first people which might be why Gill's laughing already. I wanted to be one of the first people, Gill, because I knew there were some low hanging fruit ones that a lot of people would gravitate to. So I did key numbers in football. All this stuff is very important. Might be low hanging fruit, but it's very important. Key numbers in football, long teasers, which is kind of hand in hand, right?
