Baseball Moneyline Explained
Moneyline means you are betting who will win the baseball game Straight Up (SU) without a point spread. The team that wins the game wins the wager. The team with the negative sign (i.e. Philadelphia -115) is usually the favorite. In the example above the team with the larger negative amount is the favourite. In this case it is Philadelphia ML (Moneyline) -115 odds. This means that you have to pay $115 to win $100. The Moneyline is a payout ratio you can bet more or less and the payout will be adjusted to the payout odds.
Baseball Runline Explained
Run Line (RL) The Run Line in baseball is equivalent to the point spread in football and is always set at -1.5 or +1.5. You win the wager by covering the spread - or + the spread. Some online baseball sports books will carry alternative Run Lines where the spread is -2.5, +2.5 or larger.
In the example above the Philadelphia Phillies Run Line (RL) is - 11/2 +140 meaning that the Phillies need to win by two or more runs for you to win your wager. The +140 is the payout odds if you win meaning that for every $100 bet on the Phillies Runline payouts $140.
Baseball Totals Explained
Total The Total betting line is also referred to the Over/Under Total and in this example it is 8½ O -120. For you to win your wager the Total runs from both teams would have to be 9 runs or more. The payout odds of -120 odds means that for every $120 bet pays out $100.
