Astros' error sends San Diego to victory

Baseball Betting Lines

07/03/2010 - San Diego, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Aaron Cunningham scored on Gustavo Chacin's throwing error in the bottom of the eighth inning in San Diego's 1-0 win over the Houston Astros.

Kevin Correia threw seven innings for the Padres, who won for the third time in four games. It was also their major league-best 12th shutout of the season.

Bud Norris also went seven strong innings for Houston, giving up three hits, walking three and fanning five, but the Astros were blanked for a second straight night. Chris Johnson had three hits, including a pair of doubles, in defeat.

Cunningham, recalled from Triple-A Portland earlier in the day when outfielder Will Venable went on the 15-day disabled list, stroked a pinch-hit double leading off the eighth against Chacin (1-1). Tony Gwynn Jr. then bunted to the left of the mound. Chacin ranged over, but his throw to first base bounced past a covering Jeff Keppinger, allowing the only run of the game.

Mike Adams (2-1) retired the side in order in the eighth to get the win and Heath Bell notched his 23rd save in the third installment of this four-game series.

Bell struck out Lance Berkman on a borderline 3-2 pitch at the knees for the first out of the ninth inning. Berkman briefly questioned the call by home plate umpire Ed Rapuano. Carlos Lee struck out before Jason Michaels singled up the middle, but Jason Castro popped up to shortstop to end the game.

Houston had runners on first and second in the fourth, but Lee grounded into a double play and then Hunter Pence grounded out, leaving Keppinger stranded at third.

Game Notes

Venable is out with lower back stiffness...Pence was ejected from the game by Rapuano in the seventh inning for arguing a called third strike...The last Padres team to have 12 shutouts was the 1990 club...The Padres (48-33) tied the 1984 club for the second best 81-game record in franchise history...The Padres have clinched a winning series against Houston, the first time that's happened since 2004...Astros starters have now posted a 0.67 ERA over their last four games...Padres first baseman Adrian Gonzalez didn't play due to a sore neck.

Stanley Cup betting

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.

The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.

MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.

Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
