Thanks!

You didn't tell us what was going wrong or what part of it is working
and what part not.
When I have trouble with something like this with some wacky syntax, I
like to hide as much of it inside other strings as possible to simplify
the line that is troublesome.
I would refactor that middle line into something like
<% front = "{ period: \'" %>
<% middle = "\', teaser: [\'" %>
<% back = "\'], label: [\'\']},"
<%= front + b.win_at.strftime(("%B, %d, %Y") + middle + b.name + back %>
its easier to follow, and it might either solve your problem or make it
easier to find it.
