Lines That Make you Go Hmm

This is a category that has always interested me.  Today’s entry…

Yankees vs Royals  Under 9 (-118)

Pineda vs Vargas

To be fair, the Royals’ bats have shown recent signs of life, the Yankees have routinely proven an ability to mash, and Jason Vargas has been pitching light-years beyond his career norms.  Still, this number seems high, and America agrees with 83% taking the Under (according to pregame.com).  Hypothetical 100 bucks AGAINST the expected.  1 hundo on Over 9 (+107).

****UPDATE****

18 Total Runs.  Over hit before game’s halfway point.  Hmm indeed.
