Similar to our other sports season kickoff systems if you do a six game chase on overs for every team to start the season most years its a quick way to make 30 units to start the year.  Last year and 2009 were the only years that a team went to the sixth game and it won both times.  Those years we made 16.5 units instead of 30 in the other years as our max bet is 30 units.

We'll track the plays on here starting with the game in Australia tonight.

Since tonight's game went over, does this mean we cross off both the Dodgers & Diamondbacks for this system ? That would leave the other 28 teams still in contention starting in May. Is this correct ?

Half right.  LaD and Az are done but the other 28 teams start on Mar 30/31...not May.  It's for the start of the season.
The next bet is on San Diego v LA Dodgers on Mar 30th.  It will be for 1 unit since La already won.
I made a list of the games. I'll try and post it.

Nice job, On the Black

To confirm the dodgers and diamondbacks are done.  Will start back up on all remaining teams when the regular season kicks back up.

Dodgers vs Diamondbacks - Bet to win 4.2 units - Over

What was the reasoning behind betting 4.2 units instead of 4.0 units for the second game in that series in Sydney last week ?

because you would have lost 2.2 units on Game A. 
So B game is what you lost (2.2) + what you want to profit (2).

Which of course is predicated on what amount you would have laid on the over under. I am assuming that you had a vig of -110 which would have accounted for an initial bet of -220 to win 200. Had you laid -120, then your next corresponding bet to cover the loss would be 4.4 ( not including the next vig.

I thought it was 6.  That's what I made the schedule to.
