Why the line moved
Why did the Giants vs Dodgers line move?
The spread did not move from its opening number (Dodgers -1.5) even with 62% of the spread money on the Dodgers. The total moved 0.5 points toward the under (8.5 to 8) even though 77% of the total money sits on the over; the under holds 23% of the money and 16% of the tickets, so the line moved away from the money side.
