Padres return home to battle DiamondbacksBaseball Betting Lines08/24/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The San Diego Padres will try to pad their lead atop the National League West standings when they open a three-game series versus the division-rival Arizona Diamondbacks tonight from Petco Park. San Diego is 5 1/2 games in front of San Francisco for the top spot in the division and has won eight of 12 meetings with Arizona this season. The Padres were able to salvage the finale of a three-game set at Milwaukee with Sunday's 7-3 victory. Adrian Gonzalez and Chase Headley both homered while Miguel Tejada and Ryan Ludwick both finished with two RBI for San Diego, which has won six of its last eight games. Jon Garland picked up his 13th win of the season (13-8) by holding the Brewers to two runs on eight hits and three walks over 5 1/3 innings. "It was nice to come through for Jon [Sunday]," Ludwick said after the Padres went 7-3 on a 10-game trek. "Any time you break it open a little bit and get a lead like that for this staff, it's pretty much over. This was a great road trip and it's been tremendous for me to come over here." The Padres, who will also host Philadelphia for three games on this current homestand, are scheduled to send Clayton Richard to the hill Tuesday. Richard, who has won two straight starts and four consecutive decisions, previously pitched at Chicago's Wrigley Field last Wednesday and allowed one run over 6 2/3 innings of a 5-1 victory. Richard pushed his record to 11-5 in 25 starts this season to go along with a 3.69 earned run average. The lefty is 1-0 in two career starts against Arizona. Meanwhile, the Diamondbacks will kick off a six-game road trip against the Padres and Giants and have lost five of the past seven games. Arizona was aiming for a three-game home sweep of Colorado on Sunday, but suffered a 1-0 loss in the series finale. Dexter Fowler's RBI single in the top of eighth was all the scoring the Rockies would need, while Diamondbacks reliever Aaron Heilman was saddled with the loss. Dan Hudson started for Arizona and pitched seven shutout innings. "[Hudson] went out and did what he was supposed to and what he thought he could do," Arizona skipper Kirk Gibson said on the team's site. "He ran out of pitches." Kelly Johnson, Adam LaRoche and Ryan Church provided the hits for the D'Backs. Taking the ball for Gibson's club tonight will be Rodrigo Lopez, who is just 5-11 with a 4.94 ERA in 25 starts this season. Lopez has lost his last four decisions and did not figure into the outcome of last Wednesday's 11-7 loss versus Cincinnati. Lopez, a right-hander, allowed three runs and eight hits in five innings. He has lasted just five innings in three straight starts and is 2-5 in 11 road outings this season. He is 0-2 with a 4.95 ERA in three career starts against the Padres.

Super Bowl XLIII Betting - Super Bowl 2009Super 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.
