Baseball Betting Lines

07/25/2010 - Los Angeles, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Russell Martin's two-out double in the eighth inning drove in the only run of the game as Los Angeles subdued New York, 1-0, to finish off a four-game set.

Clayton Kershaw (10-5) worked eight scoreless, allowing seven hits, while walking one and striking out three for the Dodgers, who have won four of their last five. Kenley Jansen earned his first career save in his second big league outing by retiring the side in order in the ninth.

Pedro Feliciano (2-5) took the loss after yielding the decisive run on two hits in his lone inning of work for the Mets, who return home after a 2-9 road trip to the west coast.

New York starter R.A. Dickey left after 5 2/3 innings with a left leg injury. He allowed two hits, did not walk a batter and struck out six.

Casey Blake singled with one out in the eighth and came into score when Martin found the alley in left-center field. Pinch-hitter Ronnie Belliard was given an intentional pass before Xavier Paul grounded out to end the inning.

Jansen got Carlos Beltran to pop out to start the ninth and then struck out Jason Bay and Ike Davis to end the game. He has struck out four of the six hitters he has faced in his first two appearances.

Andre Ethier doubled and moved to third on a wild pitch in the fifth but was left there when Blake struck out and Blake DeWitt grounded out. Ethier was the lone runner to advance that far until the eighth inning.
