I do a lot of betting but do not understand run lines. Can anyone let me in on this?
I will see if RBI is feeling well later and see if I can get him in here to explain it. He's a lot more versed on Baseball then I, but here is the short answer.
It's basically like the puck line in hockey, or in a even wierder way like a point spread. Usually they are +/- 1.5 and give you better odds then the ML. Sometimes they will actually put a team that is a fav on the ML and make them a dog on the RL. But, like with the spread your team has to cover the 1.5 runs. Doesn't seem like a lot but it's really hard to be successfull at bases using the RL.
That is my spin. I'm sure RBI will come in and clean this up a bit though. So don't bet the house just yet! ![[Smile]](images/icons/smile.gif){kind=icon}

Thanks MC just was not clear. So it is better just to stay away from them and straight bet unless RBI can help me more. Thanks for the info.
