Why the line moved
Why did the Dodgers vs Orioles line move?
The spread did not move from its opening number (Orioles +1.5) even with 84% of the spread money on the Dodgers. The total moved 0.5 points toward the under (9 to 8.5) even though 86% of the total money sits on the over; the under holds 14% of the money and 13% of the tickets, so the line moved away from the money side.
