Well put gynecologist! I've made my share of cash wagering on the runlines. If you wager on a game and neglect the runline, then IMO you're wagering on a 1-run victory. I would prefer to expand my winning scoreboard to beyond the 1-run victory and IMO, they seem to occur quite a bit. In short, I don't risk or wager on a team I like to win by 1 run and I get much more when they win by 2 or more, particularly the underdog. (Remember, the visitor gets the extra at-bat) Once again, this, as I said, is my opinion. 
torpedo said:In my opinion, when placing a wager on your team or teams, you are much better off to take them at -1.5 runs because I would venture to say that the majority of victories are by 2 runs + and that, in my opinion, is a fact!
Most teams win by a run or lose outright than win by 2 plus.
Fact, not opinion.
Of course national League games are much more risky option with thet -1.5. But some favorites are -2.5 runs instead of -1.5
I be these lines all of the time, but also keep in mind that a home favorite most likely will NOT bat in the bottom of the ninth so that you have less of a shot to win the -1.5 runs
