I really don't think she cares whether Pedro pitchs a 2 hit shutout and win 1-0 or lasts 1/3 off an inning and wins 23-20. Just as long as they win.
Also I don't know where you are getting all this Burnett confidence from. Granted the guy has amazing stuff when he's on and has been pretty good so far in the playoffs. But he does have the knack for letting the wheels come off the bus quickly in an inning. Also this is the biggest spot he has ever pitched in, plus it gets magnified by the fact that they are already down 1-0 in the series. Remember Pedro is the one that has the backclass.

I'm sure she would be happy losing the bet if it meant the Phillies won the game and that scenario is definitley possible.
