Bet365 has launched a fresh welcome promotion aimed at baseball fans who are new to the platform. The offer is available to residents of specific states and provides a choice between a $150 bonus bet or a $1,000 First‑Bet Safety Net, depending on the location.
How the promotion works
To claim the bonus, a new user must place a qualifying wager of at least $10 with odds of -500 or better. The bet does not need to win; the bonus is awarded once the wager settles, provided it does so within 30 days of the claim. After the qualifying bet is settled, the bonus funds are credited to the account and must be used within seven days.
State‑by‑state details
Players in Arizona, Colorado, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Missouri, North Carolina, Ohio, Tennessee and Virginia may choose either the $150 bonus bet or the $1,000 First‑Bet Safety Net. In Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Michigan, new registrants receive $365 in bonus bets plus 50 free casino spins.
MLB matchups highlighted
The promotion is timed with a busy MLB slate that includes the Los Angeles Dodgers at the Colorado Rockies and the Atlanta Braves at the Minnesota Twins. Other featured games are the Chicago White Sox visiting the Chicago Cubs and several additional matchups across the league. Bet365 lists moneyline, run‑line and total odds for each game, allowing bettors to apply their bonus to a variety of wager types.
Key player notes
For the Dodgers‑Rockies game, the Dodgers will rely on designated hitter Shohei Ohtani, who is batting .289 with 27 home runs and 75 RBIs this season. Veteran pitcher Blake Snell is slated to start for Los Angeles, while the Rockies will counter with right‑hander Tomoyuki Sugano.
The Cubs‑White Sox classic features left‑hander Shota Imanaga for Chicago, who has logged 130 strikeouts over 137.1 innings with a 3.74 ERA. The White Sox will start right‑hander Luis Castillo, setting up a compelling pitching duel.
