Baseball Betting Lines

05/05/2010 - Cincinnati, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Orlando Cabrera's solo home run in the bottom of the 10th inning lifted the Cincinnati Reds to a 5-4 win over the New York Mets in the rubber match at Great American Ball Park.

The Mets tied the game in the ninth on Jeff Francoeur's sacrifice fly off Cincinnati closer Francisco Cordero. Pedro Feliciano (1-1) took the mound to begin the 10th for New York, replacing Hisanori Takahashi after he struck out four over three perfect innings in relief of starter Jon Niese.

Cabrera was the first batter to face Feliciano and he ended the five-pitch at- bat by crushing a pitch over the left-field wall for his fifth career game- ending home run.

Cabrera finished 3-for-5, adding an RBI single in the fourth.

Brandon Phillips and Jonny Gomes both hit solo home runs in the fifth for the Reds, who have won seven of their last 10 games. Starter Johnny Cueto earned a no-decision after allowing three runs on seven hits and two walks over six innings. He also struck out eight batters.

Micah Owings (3-0) tossed a perfect top half of the 10th and was credited with the win after Cabrera's heroics in the bottom half.

David Wright homered for New York, which has dropped four of five after winning eight straight.

Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament odds  
As of February 9, MySportsbook.com has released its coveted 2007 Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament betting odds. “March Madness betting ” only a month away, the top ranked Florida Gators are favorite at 7-2 to win it all. The defending champs have not disappointed at all this season and currently have a 22-2 record and are undefeated (9-0) in SEC play. The Gators’ thrive off of their extremely balanced, experienced and versatile attack. All five starters started in last seasons National Championship game. What is most impressive with this group is their balance; the five starters all average between 10.7 and 13.6 PPG. The Gators have been on an absolute roll having won 15 straight by an average of 16.4 PPG.

Right behind the Gators are the 5th ranked UNC Tar Heels at 9-2. The Heels (21-3, 7-2) are absolutely loaded with top notch talent and are as deep as any team in the country. A concern for the Tar Heels might be inexperience. Of their top four scorers/ minute earners, three are freshmen and the other is a sophomore. The rest of the regular season, the Tar Heels play only one team that is currently ranked (Duke). Their remaining opponents do combine for an impressive 107-58 record though.
