Baseball Betting Lines
07/03/2009 -
Cleveland, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Shin-Soo Choo went 4-for-5 with two homers,
a career-high seven runs batted in and scored four times, as the Cleveland Indians crushed the Oakland Athletics, 15-3, in the opener of a three-game
series at Progressive Field.
Travis Hafner belted a solo shot and walked twice, while Asdrubal Cabrera had
a pair of doubles and three RBI for Cleveland, which snapped a five-game
slide, but have only three wins in its last 16 games.
David Huff (4-3) picked up the win after working six innings. The rookie left-
hander allowed eight hits and three runs, struck out four and walked one, and
has won four of his last five starts.
Nomar Garciaparra had two hits, including a double and an RBI for the
Athletics, who have dropped seven of nine.
Trevor Cahill (5-7) was pinned with the loss after getting raked for eight
runs -- five earned -- on six hits in 3 2/3 innings. The right-hander walked
four and struck out two.
Holliday's ground out to shortstop in the first chased home Adam Kennedy, who
led off the ball game with a ground-rule double and took third on a grounder
to second to give the Athletics the early edge. Garciaparra's RBI two-bagger
in the top of the second made it a 2-0 game, before Hafner's solo blast got
the Indians on the board in the home half.
Choo's RBI single in the third pulled the Tribe even and left runners on the
corners with two outs. Hafner drew a walk to load the bases and Jhonny Peralta
chopped a ground ball to third, but Bobby Crosby's throwing error allowed two
more to come home to put Cleveland in front 4-2.
Jack Cust got one back for the A's with a run-scoring base hit in the top of
the fourth. Then in the bottom half, an RBI double by Cabrera and a two-run
double from Choo stretched the Indians lead to 7-3 and signaled the end for
Cahill. Santiago Casilla took over and walked Hafner and served up an RBI
single to Peralta.
Cleveland continued to pour it on in the fifth, putting five more on the
board. Luis Valbuena and Ben Francisco each singled to get the inning started
and both scored when Cabrera lined a two base hit to center. Later in the
inning, Choo's three-run homer upped the hosts lead to 13-3.
Grady Sizemore's run-scoring double in the sixth and solo homer by Choo in the
seventh put the Tribe ahead by 12.
Mike Gosling came on for mop up duty in the top of the ninth and got the final
three outs despite giving up a pair of hits.

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup
September 19, – 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 Ryder Cup betting odds 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.
