    Can someone explain what this means for betting baseball
    8o -110
    -280

    It's for the Phils/Marlins game tonight.

    Is 8o the over/under and each other number is the amount needed to wager to win $100?

    Thanks

    8o should be over under amount of runs scored.

    -280 is you have to wager 280 to win 100.

    8o -110 means 110 to win 100 on the over or under. Pick em bet.

    If it said 8o -120. It would mean the over was slightly favored and the under would be even money. If it said 8u -120 vice versa.

    -280 to win 100 on favorite.

    comeback on the underdog is usually 100 to win 240 on that.

    Thanks Mom. But I'm not planning to bet, was just curious.
