Orioles score three in eighth to top RangersBaseball Betting Lines07/08/2010 - Arlington, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Julio Lugo's RBI single capped an odd three- run rally in the eighth inning and the Baltimore Orioles posted a 6-4 comeback victory over the Texas Rangers in the opener of a four-game series. Felix Pie and Scott Moore both hit solo home runs for the Orioles, who put the brakes on a three-game skid. Lugo and Ty Wigginton both had two hits in the win. Josh Hamilton homered and in the process extended his home hit streak to 28 games for the AL West-leading Rangers, who saw their brief two-game win streak halted. Frank Francisco (6-4) started the eighth inning for the Rangers with a 4-3 lead. Nick Markakis reached first on an Elvis Andrus fielding error and then stole second base. Wigginton's single put runners on the corners and Francisco hit Adam Jones with a pitch to load the bases. Darren Oliver then took the mound and he plunked Pie in the hand to force in the tying run in the form of Markakis. The following batter was Craig Tatum, and he drew a walk to force in another run as the O's moved ahead, 5-4. With the bases still loaded and no outs, Moore popped out and Darren O'Day entered as the third Texas pitcher of the inning. O'Day was greeted by Lugo, whose base hit to shallow center field scored Jones for a two-run edge. Jason Berken pitched a 1-2-3 bottom of the eighth for Baltimore and Alfredo Simon worked a scoreless ninth for his 11th save of the campaign. David Hernandez (4-7) picked up the win with 1 1/3 relief innings. Texas opened a 3-0 lead in the bottom of the second inning. Hamilton led off with a double and moved to third on a bunt by Bengie Molina before a base hit by Nelson Cruz followed for the game's first run. After Cruz stole second and advanced to third on an error during the play, Julio Borbon drew a two-out walk. When Baltimore starting pitcher Jeremy Guthrie tried to pick-off Borbon, another error -- this one an errant throw by Guthrie -- allowed Cruz to score. Borbon, who landed on second following the Guthrie error, later scored on a base hit to center field by Michael Young. Hamilton's 22nd home run of the season, a solo blast over the wall in right field, in the home third gave the Rangers a four-run cushion. In the top of the fifth, the visitors cut their deficit to 4-1 when Moore belted his third homer. Pie led off the seventh with this second home run of 2010 and later in the frame, Corey Patterson's two-out RBI single drew Baltimore within one run. Game Notes Hamilton is now only two games shy -- with at least one hit per game -- of tying the franchise mark for a consecutive games home hit streak. The current record holder is Al Oliver, who hit safely in 30 straight home games in 1981...Texas starter Tommy Hunter, who remained unbeaten with a 6-0 record, allowed three runs and seven hits with seven strikeouts in six-plus innings. Guthrie was charged with four runs on seven hits in seven frames...Texas left 11 men on base...Both teams ended 3-for-12 with runners in scoring position.

Super Bowl XLIII Betting - Super Bowl 2009Super Bowl 2009, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.Let’s take a look at the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds and the betting line and figure out where they’ve been and where they are going to go. MySportsbook.com put up the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds late on Sunday night with the Pittsburgh Steelers favored by 6.5 points and a total betting line at 47.5 points. Since then, however, the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds have seen a good deal of movement and you’ll want to be on top of where they are likely to move to make sure you get the best line value for the big game. Since opening, the Super Bowl 2009 betting lines went to Steelers -7 in the span of roughly 3 hours but were quickly bought back down just minutes later to 6.5 again. After that is took about 5-6 more hours before the betting line went back to -7 where it has sat for a while now and is likely to remain. The opening betting total of 47.5 was bet down right after the line became available and went to 47 within minutes. Roughly a day later it has been bet even further down to the 46.5 tally it currently is set at. Roughly 60% of gamblers seem to be on the Cardinals here so the point spread will be bet down and a 7.5 would not last very long at all with many taking the early 6.5 in hopes of finding a potential middle in the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds. If you like Arizona and see a 7.5, I’d take it as soon as possible because it’s unlikely to last. For Pittsburgh backers, the -7 might be the best you’ll be able to find but a 6.5 is definitely possible close to game time. Regarding the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds for the total, most tracked gamblers are already on the over and with those who took the under 47.5 already securing a middle on the over 46.5, the only way I see it moving is back up to 47 so if you like the over, I’d recommend betting now.
