Baseball Betting

May 23, 2008

There are not a lot of people who participate in baseball betting and that’s mostly because it uses money lines and not spreads. It’s really simple once you understand how money lines work and soon you will realize that this is one of the best sports to make money on. So let’s get started on explaining how baseball betting works and then you can read through our extensive database of articles in order to get a better feel for how the game works.
Oddsmakers set a money line in each game, with the favored team having a minus sign in front of their number and the underdog having a plus sign. Let’s take a look:
Kansas City +150
Boston -160

This is a typical line you could possibly see any day of the summer. Here’s how the bet works, if you want to take Kansas City then for every $100 you bet, you can win $150 if KC cashes. On the other hand you are going to have to bet $160 to win $100 on Boston. There are no spreads so it’s just whoever wins the game straight up that day. The books balance the juice using money lines instead of getting equal action on each with spreads.
