The run line betting shows an interesting trend with the Reds favored by 1.5 runs, a position that has seen slight adjustments from its opening. FanDuel's odds have moved from +128 to +134 for the Reds covering this spread, suggesting increased confidence in their ability to win by at least 2 runs. Conversely, the Marlins' odds have shifted in the opposite direction, from -154 to -161 for them to stay within this margin or win outright, indicating a tightening race according to bettors' perceptions.


Total runs for the game are set at 9, with both over and under bets placed at -110 odds. This consensus reflects an expectation of a moderately high-scoring game but without significant confidence in it being an outlier in terms of total runs scored.
