A-Rod's hit in ninth lifts Yankees over Mariners
Baseball Betting Lines
07/09/2010 -
Seattle, WA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Alex Rodriguez plated Derek Jeter and Nick
Swisher with a seeing-eye single to right in the ninth inning, sending the
Yankees to a 3-1 victory over the Mariners.
David Aardsma (0-6) yielded a one-out walk to Jeter, who moved to third on
Swisher's double to right. After Mark Teixeira fouled out to the catcher,
Rodriguez stepped in and dribbled an 0-1 fastball through the right side of
the infield. Jeter scored easily and Swisher slid in safely in front of
Ichiro Suzuki's throw home.
The rally made of a winner of Andy Pettitte (11-2), who only gave up one run
on five hits and four walks while fanning nine of eight innings of work.
Mariano Rivera, who earlier in the week announced he will not pitch in the
All-Star game because of nagging injuries, closed out New York's sixth
straight win with a 1-2-3 ninth for his 20th save of the season.
Swisher, who on Thursday became the final American League All-Star as chosen
by fan voting, went 4-for-4 with two doubles and a walk in the win.
Suzuki had two of Seattle's five hits, as the hosts dropped their fourth
straight and seventh in eight games overall.
Mariners starter Jason Vargas was charged with one run on nine hits and two
walks in seven-plus solid innings.
The Yankees had runners on base in each inning, but it was the Mariners that
broke the scoreless tie in the sixth. Josh Wilson and Michael Saunders each
singled to open the frame, and Suzuki laid down a bunt just in front of the
plate that Pettitte fielded and threw away, allowing Wilson to score.
Pettitte wound up getting out of a bases-loaded jam later in the frame by
striking out Russell Branyan and Jose Lopez.
Vargas was pulled after putting the first two hitters on in the eighth. Brian
Sweeney came in and his wild pitch allowed Rodriguez to advance to third,
proving vital as Jorge Posada's double-play grounder scored the tying run.
Game Notes
Pettitte has won six of his last seven decisions and lowered his earned-run
average to 2.70. The veteran lefty improved to 11-11 in 23 career starts
against the Mariners...Rodriguez's hit in the ninth was the only hit for the
Yankees in 11 opportunities with runners in scoring position. They stranded
12...Curtis Granderson had three hits in the win.

NFL ODDSTop Football Betting Free Agents to Change Teams
NFL Betting
It’s time to see how the biggest NFL free agent signings will perform for their news teams. Some will work out and could be the difference that makes a difference in the win column.
We look at the best off-season signings and if they should influence your NFL betting this season. Julius Peppers – Peppers was the biggest prize available on the 2010 NFL free agent market and the Chicago Bears opened the bank to bring his talents to the south side.
Peppers is explosive, he can get around blockers and cause quarterbacks to lose their minds. We all remember the classic Peppers game last year against the Vikings where he hounded Brett Favre into his worst game of the season. Peppers joining the Bears could be the reason Favre retired for good Tuesday morning. In addition to Peppers, the Bears added Chester Taylor to back up Matt Forte, Forte didn’t have the same intensity in 2009 compared to 2008 and bringing in Taylor will challenge Forte to bring it every game or he’ll risk losing carries to Taylor.
Betting on the Bears is a good option this season because of Julius Peppers and to a lesser extent Taylor. Antonio Bryant and Terrell Owens – The Cincinnati Bengals signed two former number one wide receivers to line up with Chad Ocho Cinco. Antonio Bryant had a huge season in 2008 catching 83 passes for over 1200 yards but regressed last season. Playing for the Tampa Bay Bucs last season was a large part of the regression, everyone was bad in TB last season.
Bryant should have a bounce back season if he can win the number two spot from Terrell Owens. If Bryant wins the number 2 WR spot, it will open up a completely new set of problems for the Bengals. If Owens is forced to the bench in favor of Bryant, his attitude will create trouble for Carson Palmer and head coach Marv Lewis. If Owens is the number two receiver, it means Bryant can’t live up to his past numbers and the Bengals are still limited in the passing game. NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. 2010 football betting lines for this can be found at this top online sportsbook. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense.
NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense. They signed away the Arizona Cardinals top linebacker Karlos Danby. In the past two seasons, Danby has totaled 228 tackles, 5 sacks, 3 interceptions and 3 forced fumbles. The Dolphins are the forgotten team of the AFC East with the second longest odds to win the division but with the addition of Karlos Danby and a trade for WR Brandon Marshall makes the Miami Dolphins legitimate contenders in the AFC East and in the NFL’s Eastern Conference.
The Dolphins will make NFL wagering fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash. NFL Wagering
