Kansas City, MO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - John Danks was dominant in 7 1/3 shutout
innings, as the red-hot Chicago White Sox extended their season-best winning
streak to seven games with a 5-0 blanking of the Kansas City Royals.
Danks (7-6) has been one of the spark plugs for Chicago, going at least seven
innings while allowing three or less runs in five consecutive starts. The
southpaw allowed just five hits with five strikeouts and no walks to move
above .500 for the first time since the beginning of May, when he was 2-1.
A.J. Pierzynski hit a solo homer in a 3-for-4 effort, while Scott Podsednik
went 3-for-4 with two runs scored for the White Sox, who have won 13 of their
last 16 road contests.
David DeJesus and Luis Hernandez each had two of the Royals' six hits, as KC
dropped its fourth straight game. Zack Greinke (10-4) failed to move out of
the first-place tie for most wins in the AL after yielding four runs -- two
earned -- on nine hits with a walk and six strikeouts in six innings.
Greinke's earned run average now stands at a season-worst 2.00.
Pierzynski put the White Sox on the board in the second, blasting a one-out
solo shot to right.
Chicago took a 3-0 lead in the third thanks to some shoddy fielding.
Podsednik hit a one-out double, and Jermaine Dye drew a two-out walk. Jim
Thome followed with a harmless grounder to second that went right under
Alberto Callaspo's glove, allowing Podsednik to score.
Paul Konerko then drilled a double down the right field line to score Dye for
a three-run cushion.
Gordon Beckham hit a one-out double in the fourth and scored on Dewayne Wise's
single through the infield's right side for a 4-0 White Sox lead.
Chicago padded its lead in the seventh on Thome's RBI single, all while Danks
cruised through the Royals' lineup.
After the White Sox's southpaw set down KC in order five times in the first
seven innings, he appeared to tire in the eighth and ran into some trouble,
exiting after the Royals loaded the bases with only one out.
Scott Linebrink came in and preserved the shutout, getting Callaspo to ground
into an inning-ending double play. He pitched the ninth for his second save of
the season.

LaDainian Tomlinson Favorite to be 2007 NFL MVP
With the first NFL preseason game less than two weeks away, it is time to start thinking about football once again at MySportsbook.com. Reigning NFL MVP LaDainian Tomlinson is currently the 5-1 co-favorite to win the award again alongside Super Bowl MVP Peyton Manning.
This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone after his all out assault on the record books last season. For those suffering from amnesia or were under a rock last football season, all L.T. did last season was set the NFL record for rushing touchdowns (28), total touchdowns (31) and total points scored (186) to go along with his 1815 rushing yards and 508 receiving yards. At 6-1, Tom Brady is next in line which isn’t surprising considering all of the firepower the Pats added over the off-season. With the addition of Randy Moss, Donte Stallworth and Wes Welker; it would be quite difficult for Brady’s numbers not to improve from last years 3529 yards and 24 touchdowns. There appears to be some decent value in Drew Bees at 10-1 considering he probably would have won the award last year if it wasn’t for L.T.’s record breaking season.
There is no reason to think the Saints will come back to earth this season and playing in a weak NFC, they should have as good a shot as any to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. At 15-1, Donovan McNabb could also be worth a look. Remember, many felt he was the MVP of the first half of the season before going down with a season ending injury. Reportedly, he is in great shape and well ahead of schedule to return to form. Also, he could have some added motivation to put up big numbers this season with the Eagles using their first pick in the draft on McNabb’s future successor Kevin Kolb.
