Rockies try to pin 10th straight loss on reeling Padres
Baseball Betting Lines
09/05/2010 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The San Diego Padres try to avoid their worst losing streak
in more than 16 years this afternoon when they play the finale of their three-
game series with the Colorado Rockies at Petco Park.
San Diego has been baseball's best story this season, but is mired in its
worst losing streak since May of 2003 and has seen its lead atop the National
League West trimmed to just two games over the San Francisco Giants.
"We have to get the confidence back," manager Bud Black said. "We have to get
that swagger back."
The skid continued on Saturday, as Todd Helton and Carlos Gonzalez both
knocked in two runs to help Colorado to a 6-2 win. Another loss today would
give the Padres their first 10-game slide since a franchise-worst 13-game skid
from May 8-21, 1994.
Troy Tulowitzki had two hits and scored two runs for the Rockies, who have won
five of their last eight games to pull within 5 1/2 games of the Padres in the
division.
Jason Hammel (10-7) gave up two runs on six hits in 6 2/3 innings.
Adrian Gonzalez and Nick Hundley both doubled home a run for San Diego, while
Jon Garland (13-10) allowed three runs -- two earned -- on seven hits and
three walks over 4 2/3 innings.
"We need to turn (things) around," Hundley said. "We're a play away every
single game or a hit away or a defensive play away from winning games. We're
finding ways to lose instead of finding ways to win. Until we figure out how
to make that one play, get that one big hit, we're going to continue to
struggle."
Only two teams in baseball history have endured losing streaks of at least 10
games and still reached the postseason. The 1951 New York Giants lost 11 in a
row but still won the NL pennant and the 1982 Atlanta Braves dropped 11
straight but won the NL West.
Over the course of the streak the Padres are hitting .216 with 21 runs scored,
while the pitching staff has posted a 5.29 ERA. The team has also been
outscored, 51-21, during the current drought.
Hoping to get the Padres back on track this afternoon will be lefty Clayton
Richard, who has just one loss in his last six decisions. However, that one
loss came in his last trip to the hill last Sunday against Philadelphia, which
reached him for four runs (two earned) and four hits in 7 2/3 innings to drop
him to 12-6 on the year to go along with a 3.50 ERA.
Richard did not get a decision the last time he faced the Rockies and is 1-1
in six starts against them with a 4.79 ERA.
Colorado, meanwhile, will pin its hopes on lefty Jorge De La Rosa, who is 5-4
with a 4.26 ERA. De La Rosa did not get a decision on Monday in San Francisco,
but pitched well, surrendering a run and four hits in seven innings of his
team's 2-1 win. He also struck out nine in that effort, but also walked four.
De La Rosa has faced the Padres 12 times (eight starts) and is 1-2 against
them with a 5.48 ERA.
Colorado has won 10 of its 14 meetings with the Padres in 2010, including
wins in six of the eight matchups in San Diego.

March Madness odds and printable March Madness brackets
With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship. Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92. After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points. Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1. Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years. With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed. UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern. Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier. OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak. Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four. It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta. But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
