A-Rod's hit in ninth lifts Yankees over Mariners

Baseball Betting Lines

07/09/2010 - Seattle, WA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Alex Rodriguez plated Derek Jeter and Nick Swisher with a seeing-eye single to right in the ninth inning, sending the Yankees to a 3-1 victory over the Mariners.

David Aardsma (0-6) yielded a one-out walk to Jeter, who moved to third on Swisher's double to right. After Mark Teixeira fouled out to the catcher, Rodriguez stepped in and dribbled an 0-1 fastball through the right side of the infield. Jeter scored easily and Swisher slid in safely in front of Ichiro Suzuki's throw home.

The rally made of a winner of Andy Pettitte (11-2), who only gave up one run on five hits and four walks while fanning nine of eight innings of work.

Mariano Rivera, who earlier in the week announced he will not pitch in the All-Star game because of nagging injuries, closed out New York's sixth straight win with a 1-2-3 ninth for his 20th save of the season.

Swisher, who on Thursday became the final American League All-Star as chosen by fan voting, went 4-for-4 with two doubles and a walk in the win.

Suzuki had two of Seattle's five hits, as the hosts dropped their fourth straight and seventh in eight games overall.

Mariners starter Jason Vargas was charged with one run on nine hits and two walks in seven-plus solid innings.

The Yankees had runners on base in each inning, but it was the Mariners that broke the scoreless tie in the sixth. Josh Wilson and Michael Saunders each singled to open the frame, and Suzuki laid down a bunt just in front of the plate that Pettitte fielded and threw away, allowing Wilson to score.

Pettitte wound up getting out of a bases-loaded jam later in the frame by striking out Russell Branyan and Jose Lopez.

Vargas was pulled after putting the first two hitters on in the eighth. Brian Sweeney came in and his wild pitch allowed Rodriguez to advance to third, proving vital as Jorge Posada's double-play grounder scored the tying run.

Game Notes

Pettitte has won six of his last seven decisions and lowered his earned-run average to 2.70. The veteran lefty improved to 11-11 in 23 career starts against the Mariners...Rodriguez's hit in the ninth was the only hit for the Yankees in 11 opportunities with runners in scoring position. They stranded 12...Curtis Granderson had three hits in the win.

Super Bowl XLIII Betting - Super Bowl 2009

Super Bowl 2009, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Let’s take a look at the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds and the betting line and figure out where they’ve been and where they are going to go.

MySportsbook.com put up the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds late on Sunday night with the Pittsburgh Steelers favored by 6.5 points and a total betting line at 47.5 points.

Since then, however, the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds have seen a good deal of movement and you’ll want to be on top of where they are likely to move to make sure you get the best line value for the big game.

Since opening, the Super Bowl 2009 betting lines went to Steelers -7 in the span of roughly 3 hours but were quickly bought back down just minutes later to 6.5 again.

After that is took about 5-6 more hours before the betting line went back to -7 where it has sat for a while now and is likely to remain. The opening betting total of 47.5 was bet down right after the line became available and went to 47 within minutes.

Roughly a day later it has been bet even further down to the 46.5 tally it currently is set at.

Roughly 60% of gamblers seem to be on the Cardinals here so the point spread will be bet down and a 7.5 would not last very long at all with many taking the early 6.5 in hopes of finding a potential middle in the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds.

If you like Arizona and see a 7.5, I’d take it as soon as possible because it’s unlikely to last. For Pittsburgh backers, the -7 might be the best you’ll be able to find but a 6.5 is definitely possible close to game time.

Regarding the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds for the total, most tracked gamblers are already on the over and with those who took the under 47.5 already securing a middle on the over 46.5, the only way I see it moving is back up to 47 so if you like the over, I’d recommend betting now.

Pro Football Odds : NFC SOUTH BETTING ODDS

NFL Sports Betting

NFL betting action is back! At MySportsbook, all of the pro football odds are posted for the NFC North. Check out how we see the four teams in this cloudy division stacking up this year in the chase for the playoffs! Green Bay Packers (+125) - With QB Aaron Rodgers leading the offense and DC Dom Capers working his magic on defense, the Packers are a real force to be reckoned with.

Virtually nothing changed on this offense for Green Bay from last year to this year, save for the addition of rookie OT Brian Bulaga to the bunch. Expect more huge numbers from the Pack, and a relatively favorable schedule should get them over the hump and into the playoffs once again this season. My NFL Betting Predictions: 11-5, 1st place in NFC North Minnesota Vikings (+130) - There are still too many unknowns about the Vikes this year. There is a huge difference between QB Brett Favre and either Tarvaris Jackson or Sage Rosenfels under center. Plus, is Favre comes back, is he really going to be able to keep his pick total under double digits again? Depth at running back looked like it might have been an issue with RB Chester Taylor fleeing in free agency, but drafting RB Toby Gerhart should pick up the difference. This defense is still suitable, but with a first place schedule, making the playoffs is going to be very tough regardless of whether #4 comes back or not.

Play this weekly NFL Football Contestto see if you can win.

Chicago Bears (+350) - The Bears are probably a bit of an overhyped team once again this year.No, we don't think it is plausible for QB Jay Cutler to have as bad of a season as he did last year, and we do think the additions of RB Chester Taylor and DE Julius Peppers are going to help immensely, but there's still something in the water in the Windy City that we aren't so sure about. Maybe Chicago finds its way to .500... but then again, maybe it doesn't. If Favre comes back, Cutler might be the worst quarterback in this division this year.

Detroit Lions (+1500) - The Lions are probably once again going to be the whipping boys for the rest of the teams in the NFC North, but they aren't just going to roll over and die once again. There is some real talent amassing on this team offensively, as the combination of QB Matt Stafford, RB Jahvid Best, WR Calvin Johnson, and TE Brandon Pettigrew should put a bunch of points on the board if the offensive line can even remotely hold up. The questions really lie on defense, where it feels like DT Ndamukong Suh is going to be trying to stop opposing teams all by himself. This year should show some marked improvement in the Motor City.

The Patriots will make NFL betting fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash.
