Yankees rough up Carmona, Tribe
Baseball Betting Lines
07/28/2010 -
Cleveland, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Mark Teixeira and Brett Gardner each had two
hits and two runs batted in, as the New York Yankees roughed up Fausto Carmona
in an 8-0 victory over the Cleveland Indians.
Robinson Cano doubled and slugged his 19th home run of the season for the
Yankees, who have won two of three so far in this four-game series. Alex
Rodriguez finished 2-for-5 with an RBI, but remained stuck on 599 career
homers. It has been six games since he hit No. 599 versus Kansas City last
Thursday.
The Yankees totaled 13 hits -- six for extra bases -- and all the offense made
a winner of A.J. Burnett (9-8), who allowed seven hits, walked three and
struck out seven in 6 1/3 shutout innings to win for the second consecutive
start. He threw five scoreless innings Friday against the Royals.
Carmona (10-8) lasted just 2 2/3 innings in his shortest start of the season.
He gave up seven runs on 10 hits and a walk, and threw 73 pitches.
Trevor Crowe had three hits for the Indians, who lost for the fifth time in
their last seven games.
The Yankees got on the board in the first inning, when Teixeira hit a two-out
double and Rodriguez followed with a base hit. But Carmona's troubles emerged
in the next two innings, as the Yankees nearly batted around each time.
In the second, Curtis Granderson, Francisco Cervelli, and Gardner hit
consecutive one-out singles to make it a 2-0 game. After Gardner stole second,
Carmona fanned Derek Jeter, but walked Nick Swisher. Teixeira made Carmona pay
by ripping a two-run single to right field.
Cano began the third with a double, and scored two batters later as Granderson
tripled. Carmona rapidly fell apart, hitting Cervelli on the left elbow before
Gardner doubled to right. Cervelli was thrown out at home on Jeter's ground
ball to first, but Swisher lined a single to left to get Gardner across the
plate for a 7-0 lead.
That hit ended Carmona's night. Hector Ambriz came in and walked Teixeira to
load the bases, but struck out Rodriguez to end the inning.
Ambriz allowed one run -- a leadoff homer by Cano in the fourth -- over his 2
1/3 innings. The Indians' bullpen did not allow a run the rest of the way, but
Cleveland was too far behind, and its offense didn't take advantage of
opportunities. The Indians went 0-for-10 with runners in scoring position and
left nine on base.

NFL Football Betting : Odds on NFL Division to Win the Super Bowl
NFL Super Bowl Betting
The AFC South and the NFC East are the favorite divisions to have the next Super Bowl champ among them in the NFL betting odds. But more down to the point, these football odds are in favor of the Indianapolis Colts, by far the strongest team in the AFC South, and the Dallas Cowboys of the NFC East.
Most sports fans would agree that these two teams top the list to win it all before the season even begins. In the BetUS Sportsbook football futures, the Colts are +800 in the odds to win the Super Bowl, while the Cowboys are sitting at +1000 and the Super Bowl XLIV champions New Orleans Saints at +900. In the AFC South, the Colts won the division for five straight years after the 2002 realignment, before the Tennessee Titans won it in 2008. But the Colts came back strong in 2009 to win the division again en route to the Super Bowl. The Cowboys are the favorite to win the NFC East, as well as to advance far into the post season. The Cowboys won the division last season before their horrendous loss in the NFC Divisional playoff to Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings. But the ‘Boys will take that loss humbly and be ready for the playoffs this time around.
The NFC South is also very strong, at +600 in the NFL futures, considering that it is home to the defending Super Bowl champions. However, some predictions have the Atlanta Falcons with possibilities of claiming the divisional title this season in place of the Saints, as no team has won back-to-back division championships since the division realignment took place. Let’s not overlook the AFC North at +500. As TO goes to Cincinnati to join Chad OchoCinco and Adam “Pac-Man” Jones, this team looks to claim the division title again. And it is likely they will do so. The Bengals lost in the AFC Wild Card spot in a hard-fought battle against the New York Jets last season. Lest not forget the Pittsburgh Steelers, the XLII Super Bowl Champions… All these teams present interesting odds and matchups for the upcoming season, but the safest and surest bet seems to be with the Colts in the AFC South and the Cowboys in the NFC East.
