PromosThe Red Sox +130 Moneyline Needs the Win
By BetPhoenix Editorial Team updated
Boston Red Sox at New York Yankees — Boston Red Sox moneyline at +130 pays only on an outright Boston win.
Game Snapshot
Matchup: Boston Red Sox vs New York Yankees
Pick: Boston Red Sox Moneyline (+130)
Alternative: Boston Red Sox +1.5 Run Line (-155)
Scope: Full Game
Key Difference: Boston Red Sox +1.5 also cashes on a one-run loss; the moneyline does not.
A 7–6 Red Sox loss shows what the moneyline gives up. Boston +1.5 would cash on that one-run defeat, but the +130 moneyline ticket loses with the game.
