This market resolves around Jun 13, 2026, once the San Diego versus Baltimore game has concluded and the first five innings are complete. The outcome is determined by the total number of runs both teams combine to score during that inning window, verified against credible public sources. Once the result is confirmed and official, the market settles based on whether the actual total falls above or below the specified threshold, and traders' positions are finalized accordingly.

Several factors can shift odds in this market before resolution. Lineup announcements, injury reports, or bullpen availability for either team can significantly impact run-scoring expectations. Weather conditions at game time—wind speed, temperature, and humidity—affect ball carry and overall offensive output. Starting pitcher matchups and recent offensive trends also drive trader sentiment. Additionally, early-game developments like quick outs, base hits, or scoring plays will cause sharp repricing as the first five innings unfold, making this a dynamic market that responds to real-time game flow.
