However, improving your chances of winning isn’t just about looking at a bunch of numbers. When betting, you should also:
Keep an eye out for sudden shifts in baseball lines. While this doesn’t mean that you should switch bets, it signals that there may be something else that you need to take into account.
Don’t believe in streaks. Many fans wrongly believe that baseball is a particularly streaky sport, meaning that teams tend to go on long winning and losing streaks. But statistically speaking, this isn’t true at all.
Keep records. Monitor your betting history. We recommend keeping a separate record where you can evaluate the predictions that you made for this sport.
