Baseball Betting Lines

07/04/2010 - Washington, DC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Jason Bay knocked in four runs, as the New York Mets used an early surge to beat Washington, 9-5, in the finale of a four-game set at Nationals Park.

Angel Pagan had three hits and drove in a pair for the Mets, while Ike Davis clubbed a two-run homer. Hisanori Takahashi (7-3) gave up three runs on five hits and fanned seven over five-plus innings.

Ryan Zimmerman blasted a three-run homer and added an RBI single for the Nationals. Craig Stammen (2-3) was victimized for seven runs and eight hits in 3 1/3 innings.

The Mets picked up two runs in the first inning on a triple by Bay. Pagan increased the lead to 3-0 with a two-out RBI single in the second.

Davis homered to right field off Stammen in the third, and New York continued to pile up the runs in the next frame. Pagan led off with a double and David Wright hit a one-out single. Miguel Batista replaced Stammen on the mound and struck out Davis before Bay grounded a two-run single to left field. A double by Jeff Francoeur plated Bay to make it 8-0.

Zimmerman's 14th home run of the season put Washington on the board in the sixth. The Nationals had the bases loaded with no outs later in the inning, but New York reliever Elmer Dessens fanned Adam Kennedy and got Wil Nieves to ground into a double play.

After the clubs traded runs in the seventh, Nieves singled home Kennedy in the eighth to trim Washington's deficit to 9-5.

Cristian Guzman and Zimmerman hit consecutive singles off Bobby Parnell to begin the ninth. Mets closer Francisco Rodriguez entered the game and defused the rally for his 20th save of the season.

Game Notes

Washington finished 3-for-14 with runners in scoring position...Wright was named the starting third baseman for the National League All-Star team...Guzman and Zimmerman each had three hits.

Stanley Cup betting

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.

The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.

MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.

Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.

MySportsbook.com Posts Heisman Trophy Odds

With 3,919 passing yards, 32 touchdowns and a mere seven interceptions last season, combined with a powerful South Bend Heisman legacy, odds makers at MySportsbook.com have given Notre Dame senior quarterback Brady Quinn the best Heisman Trophy odds at 5-2.

Quinn isn’t the only big man on campus this season.  Oklahoma junior running back and 2004 Heisman runner-up Adrian Peterson, listed at 7-2, rushed for a combined 3,033 yards in his first two years as a college player and will give Quinn a run for his money. 

This online sportsbook has also listed Troy Smith, Ohio State senior quarterback, as another strong favorite to win the 72nd Heisman Trophy.  A 7-1 bet, Smith threw for 2,282 yards last season and also led the Buckeyes to a convincing 34-20 victory over Quinn and the Fighting Irish in last season’s Fiesta Bowl.

Current betting odds Heisman trophy are:

Brady Quinn (QB, Notre Dame)
Adrian Peterson (RB, Oklahoma)
Troy Smith (QB, Ohio State)
Michael Bush (RB, Louisville)
Steve Slaton (RB, West Virginia)
Brian Brohm (QB, Louisville)
