Boston and Buchholz spoil Samuel's Orioles debut
Baseball Betting Lines
06/04/2010 -
Baltimore, MD (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Clay Buchholz threw his second career shutout
to help the Boston Red Sox rout the Orioles, 11-0, in Juan Samuel's managerial
debut on the Baltimore bench.
Buchholz (8-3), who threw only his third career complete game and first since
2008, set a new career-high in wins with the five-hitter. Ironically, both of
his whitewashes have come against Baltimore, although the first one was a no-
hitter in his second career start on September 1, 2007.
The 25-year-old walked only one batter and struck out two to move into a tie
atop the AL's win list with Tampa Bay's David Price. It was the fifth
consecutive start in which Buchholz earned a win and Boston's fifth overall in
six games.
Kevin Youkilis, Adrian Beltre and Marco Scutaro all homered for the Red Sox,
who snapped a four-game losing streak to the Orioles.
Chris Tillman (0-1) was unable to get out of the second inning for Baltimore,
which was playing its first game since the firing of manager Dave Trembley.
Trembley, who ended his O's tenure with a 187-283 record, guided the Orioles
to a league-worst 15-39 record at the time of his dismissal.
Trembley was replaced with Samuel, who is making his managerial debut after a
16-year playing career that ended in 1998. Samuel was unable to change the
results in the short-term for Baltimore, which had just one runner reach third
in its ninth consecutive defeat.
Tillman, meanwhile, gave up four runs, five hits and two walks in just 1 1/3
frames.
The Red Sox dominated from start to finish, scoring three runs in the first to
get going.
Tillman quickly allowed Boston to load the bases with nobody out, allowing a
leadoff single to Scutaro before issuing walks to Dustin Pedroia and David
Ortiz.
Baltimore nearly got out of it with minimal damage, as Youkilis struck out and
was followed by a Victor Martinez RBI groundout. J.D. Drew, though, came up
and hammered a two-run double to center for a 3-0 advantage.
The O's put two runners on in the home half but couldn't score, and Pedroia
added an RBI single in the second for a 4-0 lead, prompting Baltimore to bring
in Mark Hendrickson out of the bullpen.
In the fourth, Bill Hall reached on a passed ball third strike leading off,
and Scutaro followed with a single. Hendrickson retired the next two hitters,
but Youkilis stepped up and belted a three-run homer to left for a 7-0
cushion. The lead grew to eight on Beltre's leadoff shot in the fifth off Matt
Albers.
Scutaro's solo shot off Frank Mata in the eighth made it 9-0. Beltre's RBI
double and Darnell McDonald's RBI groundout against Alberto Castillo in the
ninth accounted for the final score.
Game Notes
Buchholz has won nine straight road starts, dating back to August 19,
2009...Red Sox starters have gone at least six innings in six straight
games...The Orioles still lead the season series, 4-3...Boston has won six
straight road games overall...Samuel was previously Baltimore's third base
coach. Triple-A Norfolk manager Gary Allenson was promoted to take over

NFL Sports Betting
NFL betting action is back! At MySportsbook, all of the pro football odds are posted for the NFC North.
Check out how we see the four teams in this cloudy division stacking up this year in the chase for the playoffs! Green Bay Packers (+125) - With QB Aaron Rodgers leading the offense and DC Dom Capers working his magic on defense, the Packers are a real force to be reckoned with.
Virtually nothing changed on this offense for Green Bay from last year to this year, save for the addition of rookie OT Brian Bulaga to the bunch. Expect more huge numbers from the Pack, and a relatively favorable schedule should get them over the hump and into the playoffs once again this season. My NFL Betting Predictions: 11-5, 1st place in NFC North Minnesota Vikings (+130) - There are still too many unknowns about the Vikes this year. There is a huge difference between QB Brett Favre and either Tarvaris Jackson or Sage Rosenfels under center. Plus, is Favre comes back, is he really going to be able to keep his pick total under double digits again? Depth at running back looked like it might have been an issue with RB Chester Taylor fleeing in free agency, but drafting RB Toby Gerhart should pick up the difference. This defense is still suitable, but with a first place schedule, making the playoffs is going to be very tough regardless of whether #4 comes back or not.

Chicago Bears (+350) - The Bears are probably a bit of an overhyped team once again this year.No, we don't think it is plausible for QB Jay Cutler to have as bad of a season as he did last year, and we do think the additions of RB Chester Taylor and DE Julius Peppers are going to help immensely, but there's still something in the water in the Windy City that we aren't so sure about. Maybe Chicago finds its way to .500... but then again, maybe it doesn't. If Favre comes back, Cutler might be the worst quarterback in this division this year.
Detroit Lions (+1500) - The Lions are probably once again going to be the whipping boys for the rest of the teams in the NFC North, but they aren't just going to roll over and die once again. There is some real talent amassing on this team offensively, as the combination of QB Matt Stafford, RB Jahvid Best, WR Calvin Johnson, and TE Brandon Pettigrew should put a bunch of points on the board if the offensive line can even remotely hold up. The questions really lie on defense, where it feels like DT Ndamukong Suh is going to be trying to stop opposing teams all by himself. This year should show some marked improvement in the Motor City.
The Patriots will make NFL betting fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash. NFL Betting
