Why the line moved
Why did the Giants vs Twins line move?
The spread did not move from its opening number (Twins +1.5) even with 56% of the spread money on the Giants. The total moved 0.5 points toward the under (9 to 8.5) even though 93% of the total money sits on the over; the under holds 7% of the money and 9% of the tickets, so the line moved away from the money side.
