Frequently Asked Questions
What is the run line in MLB betting?
The run line is baseball's version of a point spread. In MLB, the run line is almost always set at 1.5 runs. The favorite must win by 2+ runs to cover (-1.5), while the underdog can lose by 1 run or win outright (+1.5).
When should I bet the run line instead of the moneyline?
The run line is worth considering when you like a heavy favorite but want better odds. Instead of -200 moneyline, you might get -115 on the run line. However, the team must win by 2+ runs, adding risk.
