Why the line moved
Why did the Astros vs Yankees line move?
The spread did not move from its opening number (Yankees +1.5) even with 58% of the spread money on the Astros. The total moved 0.5 points toward the under (8 to 7.5) even though 93% of the total money sits on the over; the under holds 7% of the money and 6% of the tickets, so the line moved away from the money side.
