Baseball Betting Lines

07/28/2010 - Arlington, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Trevor Cahill allowed two hits over eight innings in a dominant performance, and Kurt Suzuki homered and knocked in two runs to guide Oakland in 3-1 win over the Texas Rangers in the middle contest of a three-game series.

Cahill (10-4), who was winless in his previous two appearances, walked three and struck out four batters as the Athletics won for the 10th time in 13 games.

Coco Crisp and Jack Cust each had two hits for the A's, who bounced back from a 3-1 loss in 10 innings on Tuesday when Nelson Cruz hit the game-winning homer off Michael Wuertz. A night later, Wuertz surrendered an RBI single to Vladimir Guerrero in the ninth inning. Craig Breslow entered with one out and fanned both Josh Hamilton and Cruz to end the game to pick up his second career save.

Colby Lewis (9-7) was charged with five hits and a run, while fanning eight batters in seven innings.

The AL West-leading Rangers suffered their third loss in the last 10 games.

The game was scoreless until one out in the sixth when Suzuki hit his team- leading 12th homer of the year, a shot to left field.

Oakland added two more runs in the eighth against Darren Oliver. Crisp singled and went to second on an error by left fielder Josh Hamilton. After moving to third on a bunt, Crisp scored on Suzuki's base hit to right field. Cust followed with a single to right and Suzuki came home on a fielding error by Cruz.

Game Notes

Rajai Davis became the fifth player in Oakland history with a 30-steal season...Cahill is 5-1 lifetime against the Rangers.

Pro Football Odds : NFC SOUTH BETTING ODDS

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.
