Baseball Betting Lines

08/27/2010 - Toronto, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Aaron Hill drove in the game-winning run with a single in the 11th inning, as the Toronto Blue Jays snuck past the Detroit Tigers, 3-2, in the second test of a four-game series at Rogers Centre.

Adam Lind and Jose Bautista each homered for the Blue Jays, who bounced back from a 7-1 loss in the opener of this series.

Shaun Marcum went six innings in the start, allowing one run on eight hits. Shawn Camp (4-2) tossed two scoreless frames of relief to pick up the win.

Miguel Cabrera hit a solo homer for the Tigers, who had won six of seven. Johnny Damon tied the game in the ninth with an RBI single while starter Justin Verlander was solid in eight innings, allowing two runs on five hits with eight strikeouts.

Phil Coke (7-3) started on the mound for Detroit in the bottom of the 11th. After Lind went down looking, John Buck singled and Fred Lewis walked. John McDonald came on as a pinch-runner for Buck and crossed the plate on Hill's base hit to right-center.

Trailing 2-1, the Tigers scored a run off Kevin Gregg in the ninth to tie the game. Austin Jackson led off with a triple and scored two batters later on Damon's base hit to right. Detroit went on to strand runners on first and second.

Brad Thomas and Ryan Perry combined to pitch a scoreless home ninth to send the game into extras. Detroit left the bases loaded in the 10th, while the Blue Jays stranded men on first and second.

The Tigers stranded men on first and second in the first and second innings before Bautista broke a scoreless tie with his major league-leading 42nd homer in the fourth.

Detroit put men on first and second in the fifth, but Damon grounded into an inning-ending double play.

Cabrera tied the game in the top of the sixth with a homer off the left-field foul pole. The Tigers moved runners to second and third with two outs later in the frame. Alex Avila, though, flied out.

Toronto left men on second and third in the home sixth. With two outs, Yunel Escobar singled and Bautista doubled. Vernon Wells grounded out to end the threat.

Lind's homer to center in the seventh put the Blue Jays ahead 2-1.

The Tigers, who left men on first and second in the seventh, failed to take advantage of another scoring opportunity in the eighth. Brandon Inge hit a two-out triple to right, but Avila grounded out to end the frame.

March Madness odds and printable March Madness brackets

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship.  Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92.  After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points.  Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1.  Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years.  With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed.  UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern.  Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier.  OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak.  Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four.  It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta.  But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
