Talbot Beats Milwaukee At Club

Baseball Betting Lines

Joey Votto, the defending NL MVP, accounted for the only run for the Reds with his 12th home run of the season in the eighth inning. Votto finished with two hits, as did Rolen, but Cincy batters struck out 11 times and were just 1- for-13 with men in scoring position as they stranded a total of 12 base runners. Rolen, who is batting .256 this season, is one hit shy of 2,000 for his career.

 

On Monday the third-year man lasted just five innings against Arizona, giving up three runs on three hits and a pair of walks and even though the Tribe captured the win Talbot did not factor into the decision.

 

As for Cincinnati, its plan is to hand the ball to right-hander Mike Leake for his first-ever appearances against Cleveland. Leake, now in just his second year in the majors, posted his most recent win on Monday, a 5-0 decision over the Tampa Bay Rays.

 

(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Jason Marquis hasn't lost in over a month, and the Nationals hope to give the veteran right-hander plenty of run support today when Washington concludes a four-game series with the Pittsburgh Pirates. Marquis is 2-0 over his last six appearances and hasn't lost since May 25 at Milwaukee. He is coming off a no-decision against the Angels on Tuesday, when he threw five-plus innings. The Nats have scored at least five runs in seven of his last 10 starts.

 

In 27 games (23 starts) over his career, Marquis is 12-6 with a 3.60 ERA when facing the Pirates.

 

The Pirates took the first contest, 5-3, behind back-to-back, eighth-inning homers from Garrett Jones and Andrew McCutchen.

 

Later in the frame, with two down, Rodriguez fell behind 0-2, then fought off two fastballs before slicing a line drive to right, scoring Rick Ankiel.

 

Tony Watson (0-1) allowed the decisive hit.

 

(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Winners in nine of their last 11 contests, the Giants will wrap up their weekend set today against the Tigers hoping for their first extended series road sweep of the season. The Giants haven't swept a series of the road of at least three games since taking four in a row from Arizona, July 22-25 last season. They did take a two-game set at Dodger Stadium this year.

 

Tejada hit a grand slam and scored twice for the Giants, who also got two RBI from Aubrey Huff.

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