Wilson, Young lead Rangers past Angels

Baseball Betting Lines

07/23/2010 - Arlington, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - C.J. Wilson threw eight shutout innings and Michael Young homered in the opening frame as Texas edged the Angels, 1-0, in the second installment of a four-game series.

Young and Nelson Cruz each had two hits for the Rangers, who won by a 3-2 count Thursday thanks to a solid effort from Cliff Lee. One night later it was Wilson's (9-5) turn and the southpaw didn't disappoint, as he allowed four hits and fanned three without walking a batter.

Neftali Feliz retired the side in order in the ninth for his 27th save.

Joe Saunders (6-10), who has just one victory in his last seven starts, just can't seem to buy a road win against Texas. The lefty limited the Rangers to seven hits, walked one and fanned six over seven innings, but has lost all six of his lifetime starts in Arlington.

Los Angeles, which lost for the 10th time in its last 12 road games, fell seven games behind the AL West-leading Rangers.

Rangers catcher Matt Treanor left after seven innings due to a sprained right knee. He'll have an MRI on Saturday.

Young clubbed a 3-2 offering over the wall in left-center with one out in the opening inning for his 14th homer of the year.

The Angels didn't have a runner past first base all night. Alberto Callaspo, playing in his first game in an Angels uniform since being traded from Kansas City on Thursday, singled with one out in the eighth inning. Kevin Frandsen flied out and pinch-hitter Maicer Izturis struck out swinging to end the inning.

In the bottom of the seventh, Treanor hit a bouncer off Saunders. The ball caromed to second base where Howie Kendrick made a bare-handed stop and threw to first base for the out. Treanor stepped on the front of the base before tripping over the ankle of Frandsen.

Treanor remained on the ground in pain for a minute or two while he was looked at by the team trainer. He walked off the field and was replaced by Bengie Molina behind the plate for the eighth inning.

Game Notes

Saunders has allowed 15 home runs to the Rangers, his most vs. any opponent...This is the Rangers' biggest lead since winning the division by eight games in 1999...Texas owns a 5-2 edge thus far in this year's season series. The Angels have lost in 10 of 13 visits to Rangers Ballpark since the start of last season.

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.
