The "lead after 3 innings" line might look like this:

Toronto Blue Jays, +240
New York Yankees, +215
Tied, +125

So, if you think that the Blue Jays might be winning after three innings, you'd want to put money down on them to be ahead after 1/3rd of the game has been completed.

If you think that the game will be tied at the end of three innings, you'd want to choose the Tied line.
