- The Houston Astros have made an amazing comeback after losing the first two games of the World Series at home.
- One of their biggest fans, Mattress Mack has placed his faith and millions of dollars into the team taking home the championship trophy.
- The Astros are the favorite to win Game 6 of the Series in Houston.
HOUSTON – Furniture salesman Jim “Mattress Mack” McIngvale has placed over $10 million in wagers on the Houston Astros to win the World Series. Coming from a 0-2 start, the Astros have come back swinging (literally), winning their last three in a row while in Washington. Games 6 and 7 (if needed) will be held in Houston.
In each game held in Washington, the Nationals were only able to score one run per game. Games 4 and 5 saw the Astros with wins of 8-1 and 7-1. After adding another million to his bets, McIngvale has reached beyond the $10 million mark in wagers.
Should each payout, he will make over $18 million. With the promotion he ran for customers buying mattresses worth $3,000 or more receiving refunds if Houston wins, Mattress Mack would owe $15 million in refunds, leaving him a cool $3 million to pocket for himself.
Game 6 of the World Series will have RHP Justin Verlander on the mound for Houston. Verlander as a postseason ERA of 4.15 in four games pitched.
