![]() If the Mets win 6-4, they have covered the run line, as they have won by two or more runs. The same goes for the Marlins if they lose 5-4, they have covered the run line because they lost by less than two. If the Mets win 5-4, they have not covered the run line, as they have not won by two or more runs. In the scenario above, then, let’s say that the Mets get -1.5 runs and the Marlins get +1.5 runs. If a team is -1.5, they are expected to win by two or more. If a team is +1.5, they are expected to lose by one or win outright. ![]() ![]() The spread is basically the number of runs a team is expected to win or lose by. The line is typically 1.5 runs but can be anything, especially with live betting. This line (or “spread,” as it is called in other sports) evens out or flips the odds.
