What these numbers mean
Run line
The team at -1.5 must win by 2 or more runs for a bet on them to win. The other team, at +1.5, wins the bet if they win the game or lose by 1 or fewer.
Market's chance
How likely the betting market thinks a result is, in plain words. About 7 in 10 means it happens about 7 times out of 10.
Fair price
The price with the bookies' cut taken out. We take the middle price across all the books we check and remove their share. It is our house line, not a tip.
Best price
The most any book we check is paying right now. A $10 bet at $1.50 pays back $15 if it wins. Every book keeps a cut, so the best price is often a little under the fair price.
Books at this line
How many books offer this exact number. Books that offer a different number are left out, so the prices compare like with like.
