Brewers edge D'Backs
Baseball Betting Lines
07/02/2008 -
Phoenix, AZ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - J.J. Hardy hit a pair of home runs as Milwaukee
clubbed Arizona, 8-6, in the second contest of a four-game set at Chase Field.
Jeff Suppan (5-6) benefited from Hardy's big night, collecting the victory
after surrendering five runs on nine hits with two walks in five frames. Joe
Dillon hit a two-run home run with two runs scored and Corey Hart ended 3-
for-5 with two runs scored for the Brewers.
Arizona still hasn't won back-to-back games since June 18-19 after Randy
Johnson (4-7) was hit for seven runs and eight hits over 3 2/3 frames. Conor
Jackson did most of the damage, as he finished 3-for-4 with a home run, two
runs scored and three RBI.
The walking wounded lost two more key players prior to the contest. Eric
Byrnes, saddled with hamstring injuries most of the season, was placed on the
15-day disabled list with a left hamstring injury and Chris Snyder joined him
with a left testicular fracture suffered when a foul ball struck him in
Monday's game. Robby Hammock and pitcher Connor Robertson were recalled to
take the vacated roster spots.
Hardy hit his first home run, a two-run spot, as part of a three-run first
frame. Hart singled, stole a pair of bases and scored on Mike Rivera's base
hit.
Jackson's RBI single put Arizona on the scoreboard in the home half of the
frame before Milwaukee put another three-spot up in the second frame. Jason
Kendall singled to begin the inning then Dillon drilled a two-run homer. Hardy
followed with a solo shot, his eighth of the campaign.
Hardy was again in the middle of the action in the fourth, walking and
stealing second in front of Hart's run-scoring base hit.
Arizona sneaked back into the game with a pair of runs in the fourth and fifth
frames. Jackson singled, Chad Tracy walked and Chris Young singled to load the
bases in front of Miguel Montero's run-scoring hit. Augie Ojeda's RBI
groundout cut the deficit to 7-3.
Jackson's two-run home run in the fifth made the score 7-5. Rivera's double
followed Hart's double, leading to another run for an 8-6 game. Arizona put up
its last run in the bottom of the eighth on Young's RBI groundout.
Salomon Torres pitched the ninth for his 14th save.

Will Ohio State continue to run the table in College Football Week Four betting odds?
MySportsbook.com favors Buckeyes, Fighting Irish and Golden Bears in this weekend's big games.
NEW YORK, NY, Sept. 21 - My Sportsbook NCAA football fans: things are beginning to get really interesting on college football's national stage. Following last weekend's "Separation Saturday", which included five teams ranked in the top 15 dropping games, the BCS Championship picture is beginning to take shape - with Ohio State leading the charge. And, according to odds makers at MySportsbook.com, the number-one-ranked Buckeyes will continue their winning ways this weekend.
Revenge will be the name of the game in Columbus this Saturday, as Ohio State looks to even the score following last season's loss to Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions. Although Penn State are listed as 16.5 point underdogs, they are 11-10 all-time versus the Buckeyes. Paterno and the Lions, however, will have to shut down Heisman Trophy favorite Troy Smith who has thrown for 769 yards and seven touchdowns this season.
Speaking of revenge, Notre Dame will be out for some against Michigan State, following last year's 44 - 41 overtime loss to the Spartans in South Bend. The thirteenth-ranked Irish, listed as a 3-point favorite, will also be looking to avenge last Saturday's thrashing from the Michigan Wolverines. The Spartans, meanwhile, have won seven of the last nine match-ups against Notre Dame and are coming off an impressive 38-23 victory over Pittsburgh.
Out west, 22nd-ranked Arizona State will be battling for their first victory over 21st-ranked California since 2000. Although the Golden Bears are listed as 7.5-point favorites, the Sun Devils are 3-0, lead the nation in sacks with 18 and possess the Pac-10's leading passer in sophomore quarterback Rudy Carpenter.

MySportsbook.com betting odds favor Europe in 2007 Ryder Cup
September 19, 2007 – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com. The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current betting odds on the 2007 Ryder Cup favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans.
Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to name a few. Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR. They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich.
The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer. Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.
