Core markets
Moneyline asks for the winner. Run line applies a handicap, commonly 1.5 runs. Totals focus on combined scoring. First-five-innings markets isolate the opening portion of the game. Depending on the competition and fixture, sportsbooks may add team totals, inning markets and player props.
Settlement matters
Baseball rules deserve a separate check because postponements, shortened games, starting pitchers and extra innings can affect settlement. Read the current operator rules for the exact market you are considering.
