Why the line moved
Why did the Braves vs Brewers line move?
The spread did not move from its opening number (Brewers +1.5) even with 51% of the spread money on the Brewers. The total moved 0.5 points toward the under (9 to 8.5) even though 96% of the total money sits on the over; the under holds 4% of the money and 3% of the tickets, so the line moved away from the money side.
