This market reflects what thousands of informed participants believe will happen, often incorporating real-time adjustments that sportsbooks may lag on. Many traders use sportsbook lines as a reference point but find prediction market odds capture sharper consensus, especially for niche props like first-five-inning totals where traditional betting volume is lighter.

Once play begins, early runs, pitcher performance, and base-running situations will drive inning-by-inning adjustments as the market reprices based on live action.
