Nationals Win Close, and the Bigger Payout Ticket Still Doesn’t Get There

By BetPhoenix Editorial Team updated

Colorado Rockies at Washington Nationals — Washington Nationals moneyline at -187, where any Washington Nationals win cashes.

Game Snapshot
Matchup: Colorado Rockies vs Washington Nationals
Pick: Washington Nationals Moneyline (-187)
Alternative: Washington Nationals -1.5 Run Line (+106)
Scope: Full Game
Key Difference: A one-run Washington Nationals win cashes the moneyline but loses Washington Nationals -1.5.

Picture Washington doing its job and still making you sweat the margin: a 2–1 Nationals finish pays the ticket that only asked for the win, while the one that demanded separation comes up empty.

Here’s the trade in black and white: Washington Nationals moneyline is -187, and Washington Nationals -1.5 is +106. If -187 feels expensive, it’s because you’re buying the widest win condition—any Nationals win—while +106 only exists because you’re accepting the stricter “win by two or more” requirement.

Take the Washington Nationals moneyline when your objective is to get paid on a straight Nationals win without needing a two-run cushion. If you’re specifically chasing the plus price and are comfortable tying your result to a multi-run win, Nationals -1.5 is a legitimate purchase for that return goal.

Pass unless BetPhoenix offers Washington Nationals moneyline at -187 or better.
