What happens if a game is shortened but deemed official by MLB?
If a game is shortened, called, or otherwise ended before the regulation number of innings (e.g., due to weather, curfew, or mercy rule), and the governing body declares the game official and records a winner, the market for the full game will resolve based on that official result.
What happens if a baseball event is postponed, canceled, or not completed?
Postponed (Game Has Not Started)
If a game is postponed from its originally scheduled date but is rescheduled and started within 48 hours of its originally scheduled start time, the market will remain open and will resolve based on the official final result of the rescheduled game. If game has not started within that 48-hour period, the market will resolve based on the last fair market price as determined by the Exchange.
Suspended (Game Has Started, Then Paused)
If a game is abandoned, cancelled, or suspended and is not resumed within 48 hours of its originally scheduled start time, the market will resolve based on the last fair market price as determined by the Exchange. If the game is suspended during play and resumed within 48 hours of the originally scheduled start time, the market will remain open and will resolve based on the official final result of the completed game.
