A Fox News betting preview published Oct. 16, 2026, covered Game 4 of the American League Championship Series between the Cleveland Guardians and Tampa Bay Rays, while also describing a promotional offer from sports-betting platform Underdog.
The preview said new users entering the code FOXNEWS could make a $5 wager and receive a $10 bonus bet token. According to the source, repeating the process for 10 days could yield $100 in bonus bets. The article described the offer as applying to new users; it did not provide additional terms or conditions. It also cautioned that odds could change.
The game was scheduled for Friday, Oct. 16, at 8 p.m. Eastern at Progressive Field in Cleveland, with TBS and truTV listed as broadcasters. The preview said the series would last at least five games.
Cleveland entered Game 4 after winning Game 3, according to the source. The Guardians took an early lead on an RBI double, but Tampa Bay moved ahead 2-1 with a two-run triple in the fourth inning. Cleveland then regained the lead on a two-run home run by Petey Halpin. The preview noted that Halpin had hit four home runs in 83 games during the season.
The account described the first two games as contrasting performances for Cleveland. The Guardians scored seven runs in Game 1, mixing extra-base power with play that advanced runners. In Game 2, they struggled to produce offense, though they put the potential tying run in scoring position late before failing to bring the runners home.
The source characterized Game 3 as close rather than a comfortable Cleveland victory and said Halpin’s home run proved decisive. It did not include comments from either team or independently confirm the promotional terms.
