Baseball Betting Lines

09/15/2007 - San Diego, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Khalil Greene belted a home run in the bottom of the 10th inning to lift the San Diego Padres to 5-4 victory over the San Francisco Giants at Petco Park.

With one out in the 10th, Greene smacked the first pitch he saw from Dan Giese (0-1) into the seats in left to give the Padres a thrilling come-from-behind victory.

Scott Hairston's solo homer and Geoff Blum's RBI double in the ninth sent the game into extra innings for San Diego, which leads Philadelphia by 1 1/2 games for the NL wild card. The Phillies defeated the Mets in extra innings earlier Friday.

Kevin Kouzmanoff hit a two-run homer and for the Padres, who also trail Arizona by 3 1/2 games in the NL West. The Diamondbacks are currently playing the Dodgers in Los Angeles.

Chris Young started for San Diego and pitched seven innings, allowing three runs on six hits to go along with five strikeouts and one walk. Trevor Hoffman (4-4) pitched a scoreless ninth to pick up the victory.

Kevin Frandsen and Ryan Klesko each knocked in a run for the Giants, who have lost two straight and three of their last four.

San Francisco starter Barry Zito gave up two runs on four hits in six innings while striking out four and walking three. Zito also knocked in a run.

The Giants scored two runs in the second to take an early lead. Barry Bonds led things off with a walk and Bengie Molina followed with a base hit. With one out, Rich Aurilia singled to center to load the bases and Frandsen's sacrifice fly plated the first run of the game. Zito then helped himself with a run-scoring single.

San Diego tied the game at 2-2 in the fourth after Kouzmanoff blasted a two- run homer to center.

With the game tied in the seventh, San Francisco grabbed the lead with two outs. Eugenio Velez, who pinch hit for Zito, tripled to right and scored as Young uncorked a wild pitch with Randy Winn at the plate to make it 3-2.

San Francisco tacked on an insurance run in the ninth on Klesko's pinch-hit run-scoring single.

Brad Hennessey started the bottom of the ninth and Hairston greeted him with a home run that just cleared the left-field wall to pull San Diego within a run. Hennessey then walked Josh Bard and a sac bunt by pinch-hitter Craig Stansberry put the game-tying run into scoring position.

Steve Kline then relieved Hennessey and the left-hander got Brian Giles to fly out to deep right. Blum, though, delivered with a double down the left-field line to plate pinch-runner Brady Clark and send the game into extra innings.

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.
