MLB is the top professional baseball league in North America, with a very long regular season played almost daily from spring to autumn before a postseason of short series. Starting pitching is the single biggest factor in any matchup, while ballpark dimensions, weather and bullpen fatigue also shape individual games.
Baseball turns on the starting pitcher matchup, bullpen availability and how tired the relief corps is after a dense run of games. Park dimensions, wind direction and temperature change how far batted balls travel, so run totals move with conditions. Long schedules force rest days, and lineups can look very different on consecutive days. Interest usually sits on the run line, the total, first five innings markets and strikeout counts.
