Dodgers complete three-game Miller Park sweep
Baseball Betting Lines
08/26/2010 -
Milwaukee, WI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Scott Podsednik had three hits, scored twice
and drove in a run and Casey Blake homered to lead Los Angeles to a 7-1 win
over Milwaukee to complete a three-game sweep at Miller Park.
Ryan Theriot added a pair of hits, a run scored and an RBI and Brad Ausmus
chipped in with a trio of hits for the Dodgers, who swept a three-game series
in Milwaukee for the first time since May 23-25, 2003.
Ronald Belisario (2-1) earned the win by recording one out as the first of
five relievers who combined to throw 4 2/3 scoreless innings behind starter
Carlos Monasterios for Los Angeles, which has claimed four of its last five
games.
Yovani Gallardo (11-6) absorbed the loss after allowing six runs on eight hits
and a pair of walks while fanning 10 over 6 1/3 innings for the Brewers, who
have dropped four in a row.
Podsednik started the game with a single and moved to third base on Theriot's
ground-rule double. After Andre Ethier struck out, Matt Kemp's ground out
delivered Podsednik with the game's first run.
Prince Fielder's solo home run to right field tied the game in the bottom of
the fourth.
The visitors regained the lead for good in the next half inning when Ausmus
scored on Podsednik's single off the glove of a diving second baseman Rickie
Weeks.
Gallardo walked with one out before Weeks and Corey Hart were hit to load the
bases in the bottom half of the fifth as Monasterios was then lifted from the
game and replaced on the hill by Belisario.
The right-hander struck out Ryan Braun and was lifted in favor of southpaw
George Sherrill, who got the lefty-swinging Fielder to bounce into a force out
at second base to end the inning. Monasterios was charged with the hosts lone
run on a pair of hits while walking one and striking out three in his 10th
career start.
The Dodgers took advantage of getting out of the jam by adding two runs in the
top of the sixth on an opposite field home run to right by Blake.
A Podsednik base hit put runners at first and second with one out in the
seventh and spelled the end of the day for Gallardo.
Todd Coffey took over and was greeted by consecutive run-scoring hits by
Theriot and Reed Johnson that made it a 6-1 game. A wild pitch allowed Theriot
to dash in from third with the final run of the contest.
Kenley Jansen threw two scoreless innings, including striking out the side in
the seventh, and Octavio Dotel followed by replicating the feat in the eighth.
Jeff Weaver set down all three hitters in the ninth to finish the game.

Elite 8 NCAA Tournament Betting at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com
In what should be an outstanding Saturday of March Madness betting action, the top four teams in the South and West Regions square off in what should be extremely close match-ups. Three of the four teams are coming off extremely close games on Thursday evening, only UCLA won semi comfortably over Pitt 64-55.
Ohio State is coming off their second game in a row where in all reality they should have lost. Of course that doesn’t matter now since the name of the game is “survive and advance” but as the tournament continues, they can’t afford to keep getting down to their opponents early. Kansas also avoided a scare by holding off a scrappy Southern Illinois squad. In the third thrilling game of the evening Memphis pulled off the minor upset (+3.5) despite being the higher seed to Texas A&M.
Although the spreads are fairly small for Saturday’s games, MySportsbook.com continue to bet against the underdogs. Despite OSU’s two scares, 86% of the “betting public” feels the Buckeyes (-1.5) have what it takes to make the Final Four. In fact, so much of the early money is on OSU that the line has already moved from -1 to -1.5. In the second game of the doubleheader, Kansas and their high-powered offense are 2 point favorites as they take on UCLA and their effective defense. About 63% of the early money thus far is once again backing the favorites. If those percentages stay that high, don’t be surprised if this line moves as well. If you like Kansas (-2) you might want to jump on it early.
Memphis vs. Ohio State
Both squads were involved in thrillers on Thursday evening and should come out fired up. OSU can ill afford to get behind early like they did versus their previous two opponents (Xavier, Tennessee). Greg Oden needs to stay out of foul trouble; the Buckeyes are a completely different team when he is on the court. Memphis definitely has the athleticism and length to match-up with OSU. Of Memphis’ five leading minute earners, the shortest of the bunch is 6’5”. Each team has a very effective defense; Memphis surrenders 62.3 PPG whereas the Buckeyes give up only 61 PPG. With those type of numbers, it isn’t surprising that Memphis covered the UNDER almost 69% of the time this season. As a favorite, OSU has covered the UNDER almost 66% of the time over the last three seasons. The major concern for Memphis which is magnifies this time of the year is their brutal foul shooting (62%). This season, OSU is 17-11 ATS versus teams with a winning record and 7-2 ATS in all tournament games. Memphis has been an extremely reliable cover in tournament play in recent years with a 23-8 ATS record over the last three seasons.
UCLA vs. Kansas
In the second game of Saturday’s doubleheader, UCLA will play in a role which they are very unfamiliar with that of the underdog. Only twice this season have they been getting points from the handicappers and both times they covered. Over the last three seasons UCLA is a reliable 23-7 ATS in this unfamiliar role. UCLA has not fared well against Big 12 opponents recently going 1-7 ATS since 1997. Giving up only 59.6 PPG, UCLA will definitely look to do what they do best: keep this game as low scoring as possible. Their defense has been especially tough during the tournament. UCLA opponents have been able to muster up only 48.7 PPG while shooting a combined 34.5% from the field. UCLA definitely has a challenge at hand with a Kansas team that is capable of putting points on the board in bunches. As a team, they average 79 PPG and shoot an impressive 49.6% from the field and 39.4% from beyond the arc. During the tournament Kansas has been “lights out” from the field having shot 56.2%.

Chiefs' Treen Green out for Sunday's game
How long Trent Green will remain sidelined is unknown. Coach Herm Edwards said Monday he will miss a second straight start Sunday when the Chiefs host the San Francisco 49ers.
A two-time Pro Bowler, Green was going into a feet-first hook slide when he was knocked unconscious by a thunderous, head-snapping hit from Cincinnati's Robert Geathers.
Oddsmakers at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com currently have the Chiefs listed as 7-point favorites versus the 49ers.
The 49ers got beat by Philadelphia 38-24 as a 6.5-point underdog last week. The combined score went OVER the posted over/under total (42.5).
Alex Smith completed 27-of-46 passes for 293 yards with a touchdown. Michael Robinson rushed for 29 yards and a pair of touchdowns on five carries.
The Chiefs lost 9-6 to Denver last week as an 11-point underdog. The combined score was well UNDER the posted over/under total (38).
Larry Johnson rushed for 126 yards on 27 carries. Damon Huard completed 17-of-23 passes for 133 yards with no touchdowns and no interceptions.
