Baseball Betting Lines
04/27/2010 -
Milwaukee, WI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Gregg Zaun went 4-for-4 with five RBI and
three runs scored while Casey McGehee hit a grand slam as Milwaukee continued
its dominance of Pittsburgh this season with a 17-3 win to open a three-game
set.
Last Thursday, the Brewers handed the Pirates a 20-0 loss and over the four
games the two have played each other, Milwaukee has outscored Pittsburgh,
53-4. Milwaukee has won all four games.
Ryan Braun and Prince Fielder each scored three times while Alcides Escobar
added a two-run home run for the Brewers, who were coming off a three-game
sweep at the hands of the Cubs.
Yovani Gallardo (2-2) went six innings in the start and was charged with two
unearned runs on five hits with three walks and four strikeouts. He also went
2-for-2 at the plate with three RBI.
Zach Duke (2-2) was tagged for eight runs on nine hits with four walks and
four strikeouts over four innings of work. Andrew McCutchen had a two-run
double in the loss.
Milwaukee got things started in the second as McGehee and Zaun worked walks
and Gallardo doubled to left-center to plate both runners for a 2-0 lead.
In the third, the Brewers made it a 7-0 game. With the bases loaded and two
outs, Zaun brought home all three runners with a double to left. After
Escobar singled, Gallardo and Rickie Weeks followed with back-to-back RBI
singles.
The Pirates got on the board in the fourth as McCutchen punched a double to
left that plated Akinori Iwamura and Duke, but the Brewers got one back in the
bottom of the inning when Corey Hart's sacrifice fly to left scored Braun for
an 8-2 lead.
The Brewers brought home nine more runs in the eighth. A two-run double from
Zaun was followed by a two-run homer from Escobar. With the bases loaded,
Fielder hit an RBI single and McGehee added with a grand slam to left for a
17-2 advantage.
Garrett Jones' RBI groundout in the ninth accounted for the final score.

American Idol Betting Odds: Season 6
The online gambling websites are in the process of deciphering each American Idol contestant and his or her chances of winning Season 6 to come up with the early American Idol betting lines.
Tim Dalton of MySportsbook.com has been locked away in a soundproof room coming up with all the latest tallies, we are told. "American Idol has become one of the most significant betting events of the year," claims Jack Black of MySportsbook.com. "Last year, millions were bet during the season across the globe, not just in America.
It's tough early on since we really do not have a glimpse as to how well each of these individuals will perform solo on a week-to-week basis. It's like Week 1 of the NFL. Pre-season means nada!
We do know the 24 finalists however.
Sanjaya Malakar is the young man whose sister failed to make it into the Top 24. He's very low key but - unless he totally flubs - will probably win over the young girlie vote for a few weeks anyway. He's too young to go all the way, according to Payton O'Brien.
Brandon Rogers - Who?
Phil Stacy is the military guy who missed his daughter's birth because of the Memphis audition. He should go a good distance.
Chris Sligh - He's got the humor and in many ways he's the Anti-American Idol much like last year's winner Taylor Hicks was. And this is why he'll probably get pretty far in this competition. He's chubby, white with a big curly afro....but more importantly, a great voice! People love "real", not "real cute" to go all the way.
"Blake Lewis should go far because of his uniqueness and looks. He's the boy next store with a twist - he beat boxes. But on top of this, he's a great singer, and I adore him," Payton O'Brien relayed.
A talented beat-boxer Blake Lewis was a hit during the group sing in Hollywood but Simon explained that this is a singing contest just before he told him he was “in.”
Paul Kim has caught our own roving reporter, Jenny Woo's eyes.
"I love the fact that there is a Korean American on the show and he is bound to get more Asians tuning into the show," Woo said from her Miami Beach estate. "There has never been a major presence of Asian-Americans on American Idol in the past. He's a hottie with a nice voice so that should help to take him far. Expect heavy betting action from the Asian community."
Sundance Head - He's not perfect, but he's got the personality that will take him through a few weeks, plus he's got the lineage (son of Roy Head - whose 1965 single, "Treat Her Right," hit No. 5 in the charts)
And the others:
Rudy Cardinas
AJ Tabaldo - the 5th time is the charm
Nicolas Pedro
Chris Richardson
Jared Cotter
The girls
"Melinda Doolittle has one of the best voices," says MySportsbook.com Reporter and an acclaimed dancer in her own right, Destiney Lewis. "It is great to see a back up singer step out like she has. The girl needs to gain more confidence but that can also be a positive. I think she will go far."
Alena Alexander - Those tears (she never seems to stop bawling) should get her far.
"Single mom Lakisha Jones I suspect will be a pretty big favorite entering Week 1 of the competition," says Destiny Williams. Jones is an excellent singer and down to earth. "She'll have a wide appeal," echoed O'Brien.
Nicole Trellis - Seems to exert confidence.
Amy Krebs - a powerful singer.
Antonella Barba
Gina Glocksen
Hailey Scanardo
Jordan Sparks
Stephanie Edwards
Leslie Hunt
Sabrina Sloan
