Baseball Betting Lines

04/21/2009 - Baltimore, MD (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Aubrey Huff blasted a pair of two-run homers to support a solid effort by Brad Bergesen in his major league debut, as the Baltimore Orioles defeated the Chicago White Sox, 10-3, in the opener of a three-game set at Camden Yards.

Nick Markakis finished 4-for-4 with a walk, scored three times and drove in two runs for Baltimore, which snapped a five-game losing streak. Luke Scott collected three hits, walked once and knocked in a run.

Bergesen (1-0) gave up three runs -- one earned -- on four hits with four strikeouts and two walks in 5 2/3 innings to come away victorious in his first trip to the mound.

Jermaine Dye, Paul Konerko and Brian Anderson each drove in a run for Chicago, which lost for the third time in its last nine games. Jose Contreras (0-3) was charged with the loss after surrendering six runs on seven hits and six walks over 5 1/3 innings.

Baltimore jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the third inning on Huff's blast to right, but the White Sox quickly countered with a pair of runs in the fourth.

Chris Getz walked to lead off the frame and Josh Fields went down swinging. A fielding error by third baseman Ty Wigginton on a ball hit by Carlos Quentin put runners on the corners. After Jim Thome was called out on strikes, Dye and Konerko hit back-to-back singles to tie the game.

An RBI groundout by Anderson gave Chicago a 3-2 lead in the fifth, but the O's rallied in the bottom half. Brian Roberts led off the inning with a walk, took second when Lou Montanez grounded out, and raced home on a double by Markakis. Scott singled in Markakis later in the frame for a 4-3 Baltimore lead.

The O's tacked on two more runs in the sixth. Cesar Izturis drew a one-out walk, swiped second and advanced to third on A.J. Pierzynski's errant throw. Roberts worked a walk and Montanez followed with an RBI double, chasing Contreras from the mound. Clayton Richard emerged from the bullpen and the hot-hitting Markakis greeted the left-hander with a run-scoring single down the left-field line.

Izturis stroked a two-run double in the seventh to make it an 8-3 game and Huff went deep against Jack Egbert in the eighth.

MySportsbook.com: NBA Championship Odds

With the playoffs about two months away, the top two teams in the Western Conference are the clear cut leaders to win the NBA Championship. The Dallas Mavericks have the best record in the NBA (44-9) and have been absolutely scorching since the second week of the season.  What makes the Mavs’ record more impressive is the fact that they dropped their first four games of the season.  Currently they have won 17 out of their last 18 and are MySportsbook.com’s favorite (2-1) to win it all.  Right behind the Mavs are the Pacific leading Phoenix Suns (39-13).  Last season, the Suns lost in the Conference Finals to non-other then the Mavericks four games to two.  Of course the Suns were without center Amare Stoudemire who has is averaging 19.9 PPG and 9.5 RPG since coming back from his knee injury.  Unlike the Mavs, the Suns have struggled a bit lately having lost their last three and four out of their last seven.  Of course the main reason for their three straight loses is due to the absence of two time MVP Steve Nash, who is out with a shoulder injury.  Heads-up, the Mavs have beaten the Suns in both of their meetings this season.

In the Eastern Conference, the Pistons (32-19) are the favorites to win it all at 6-1. The addition of Chris Webber seems to have been a good move for the Pistons.  Since coming over from the 76ers, Webber has averaged 13.1 PPG and 7.3 RPG and the Pistons are 11-4.  Even though the defending champion Heat are currently on the playoff making cusp, they are the Eastern Conference team that is getting the most action to win it all (9-1).  The fact that Shaquille O’Neal is back in the starting lineup after missing 39 games probably has something to do with this.  No doubt, Shaq makes a difference when in the lineup as their winning six out of their last seven would indicate.

Just because it is the All-Star break doesn’t mean that you can’t bet on NBA hoops this weekend.  Be sure to log onto MySportsbook.com to bet on who you think will cut down the nets this July.
