There are 3 basic types of bets in Baseball. These are Moneyline, Run Line and Total Runs O/U.
Money Line
Example
Washington Nationals: 2.51
Florida Marlins: 1.63
In this example, Florida Marlins is the favorite while Washington Nationals is the underdog. A $100 bet on Florida Marlins will win $63. While a $100 bet on Washington Nationals will win $151.
Extra innings are included in the final result to determine the winning team, unless specified otherwise.
Run Line
Example
Washington Nationals +1.5: 1.72
Florida Marlins -1.5: 2.28
Run Line bet is a wager on a team to win the game with handicaps applied. In this example, if Florida Marlins win by 2 runs or more, a bet of $100.00 wins $128.00. If Washington Nationals win the game, or lose by only a run, a bet of $100.00 will win $72.
Extra innings are included for Run Line bets to determine the final result, unless specified otherwise.
Total Runs O/U
Example
Over 9: 2.03
Under 9: 1.88
Total runs is the combined total runs for both teams at the end of the game. Extra innings are included in the final result to determine the total runs, unless specified otherwise.
