theScore Bet Promo Code YAHOOBONUS: $1,000 Bet Reset
Guardians open ALCS as +140 underdogs against the Rays while new users can access a first-bet safety net for Monday's MLB and NFL action.
The American League Championship Series opens Monday night as the Cleveland Guardians visit the Tampa Bay Rays, with oddsmakers installing the home team as a clear favorite. Bookmakers at theScore Bet have set Tampa Bay at -165 on the moneyline against Cleveland at +140.
That pricing reflects a 62.3% implied probability of a Rays victory in Game 1. The run line offers Tampa Bay -1.5 runs at +135, while taking the Guardians to stay within one run costs -160. The total is set at 6.5 runs, with the over priced at -125 and the under at +105. ALCS Game 1 begins at 8 p.m. ET.
Tampa Bay’s status as a moneyline favorite aligns with recent postseason trends favoring teams that secured home-field advantage through higher regular-season win totals. The Rays have consistently leveraged Tropicana Field’s controlled indoor environment to suppress opponent scoring, a factor frequently reflected in sub-7.5 game totals during their playoff appearances.
Following the baseball opener, the NFL’s Week 5 Monday Night Football slate features the Buffalo Bills traveling to face the Los Angeles Rams at 8:15 p.m. ET. Buffalo enters the matchup atop the AFC East with a 3-1 record, while the Rams sit third in the NFC West at 2-2.
For bettors targeting either contest, theScore Bet is offering new customers a first-bet reset worth up to $1,000 using the promo code YAHOOBONUS. If the initial qualifying cash wager loses, the sportsbook issues matching bonus bets up to the $1,000 threshold.
This type of promotion functions as second-chance insurance rather than a traditional deposit match. Unlike site credit, which can typically be withdrawn immediately, the refunded bonus bets are non-withdrawable. Any winnings generated from those bonus tokens convert to withdrawable cash, but the stake itself is not returned if the subsequent bonus bet wins. Bettors should also monitor expiration windows, as most U.S. sportsbooks require bonus bets to be used within seven days of issuance.
To activate the offer, users must create an account, apply the YAHOOBONUS code during registration, deposit a minimum of $10, and place a qualifying cash wager of at least $10.
Beyond standard spreads, moneylines, and game totals, the platform supports player props for passing, rushing, receiving, and touchdown markets on the Bills-Rams broadcast. Same-game parlays are available for both the NFL matchup and the ALCS opener, allowing bettors to correlate individual player performances with game outcomes.
The operator currently accepts wagers from users physically located in Arizona, Colorado, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Maryland, Missouri, North Carolina, Ohio, Tennessee, and Virginia. Eligibility requires users to be at least 18 years old, though the minimum age rises to 19 in Alabama, Colorado, and Nebraska, and 21 in Arizona, Iowa, Illinois, Louisiana, Massachusetts, and Virginia.
Odds and available markets fluctuate leading up to first pitch and kickoff. The current lines for the Guardians-Rays ALCS Game 1 remain active ahead of the 8 p.m. ET start.
