A Coral Springs resident pulled off one of the most improbable wins in baseball betting history — and it only cost him thirty bucks.
On Friday morning, just after 7 a.m., the unidentified bettor opened the Hard Rock Bet app, picked six baseball players, and placed a $30.11 wager.
The bet was a six-leg home run parlay; a single ticket requiring six different MLB players to each hit at least one home run on the same night. Miss on even one, and the whole ticket was worthless. The combined odds were roughly 65,000-to-one against, according to Hard Rock.
The bettor’s six picks were Riley Greene of the Tigers, Jesús Sánchez of the Blue Jays, Nick Kurtz of the Athletics, Bryce Harper of the Phillies, Coby Mayo of the Orioles, and Jazz Chisholm Jr. of the Yankees, spread across six different games Friday evening.
One by one, each player blasted homers into the stands.
Greene went yard first, launching one over the centerfield fence in the second inning. Sánchez followed with a 422-foot rocket in the bottom of the first in Toronto. Kurtz delivered dramatically, leading off the top of the first by sending a fastball sailing over the fence in right. Harper, after two early strikeouts, stepped up in the fifth inning and crushed a four-seam fastball to left-center. Mayo — carrying the longest individual odds on the ticket at +800 — homered for the third straight game, going deep to left-center in the fifth.
That left everything riding on Jazz Chisholm Jr. and the Yankees-Astros game. Leading off the fourth inning, Chisholm Jr. watched a ball, took a called strike, and — on a changeup right down the middle from Lance McCullers — sent his second home run of the season deep to right field.
The entire gambling play, from Greene’s first homer to Chisholm’s clincher, lasted just over two hours.
The final payout was $1,980,043.01, deposited directly into the bettor’s account — the longest-odds seven-figure parlay payout in Hard Rock Bet history, and the smallest stake ever to mint a million-dollar winner on the platform, according to Hard Rock.
Hard Rock Bet called the win an “all-timer” and suggested the ticket slip deserved a spot at the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown.
The lucky bettor’s identity has not been made public.
