Detroit's Galarraga baffles Indians again
Baseball Betting Lines
08/20/2010 -
Detroit, MI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Armando Galarraga continued his mastery of the
Indians with seven shutout innings, and the Detroit Tigers shut out Cleveland,
6-0, in the opener of a three-game set at Comerica Park.
Galarraga (4-5), whose last appearance against Cleveland resulted in what
should have been a perfect game, allowed just three hits and struck out eight
without walking a batter. Back on June 2, Galarraga tossed his first career
shutout, retiring the first 26 batters of the game before umpire Jim Joyce
botched a call at first base that would have resulted in the third perfect
game of the season.
Instead, he settled for a one-hitter, and Galarraga stretched his scoreless
innings streak against the Indians this season to 16. He has given up at least
one run in every start this season except both games against Cleveland.
Don Kelly recorded a career-high four hits to go with two runs scored and an
RBI for Detroit, which snapped a three-game losing streak and a four-game skid
to the Indians. Brandon Inge fell a homer shy of the cycle, while Will Rhymes,
Austin Jackson and Miguel Cabrera each recorded a multi-hit game.
Jayson Nix doubled for the Indians to break up a no-hitter in the fifth, as
the Indians fell for the ninth time in 12 games. Justin Masterson (4-12)
continued to struggle, giving up five runs on 11 hits and a walk in six
frames.
The Tigers wasted no time building a lead, scoring twice in the first.
Jackson led off the inning with a single, stole second and advanced to third
on a Rhymes bunt single. Jackson was able to score on the play when catcher
Lou Marson threw the ball away, which also let Rhymes reach second.
Rhymes went to third on a groundout and scored on Cabrera's base hit for a 2-0
lead.
Gerald Laird and Jackson each hit an RBI single in the second to double the
lead to four. Rhymes' run-scoring single in the fourth made it a 5-0 contest.
Meanwhile, Galarraga dominated. He retired the first 14 Indians batters of the
game before Nix hit a double to left just past the outstretched glove of
Kelly.
Galarraga allowed just two more hits in his seven innings of work, and Ryan
Perry followed with a perfect eighth. Kelly's RBI double in the eighth
accounted for the final margin, and Phil Coke polished off the win with a
scoreless ninth.

MySportsbook.com favors Bears, Bengals, Chargers and Colts to remain perfect
LAS VEGAS , Sept. 28 - Two big match-ups of undefeated teams have fans salivating at the Week Four schedule in the NFL. The Chicago Bears stifling defense looks to provide a less than hospitable welcome to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night in a battle of two 3-0 teams in the NFC conference. In the AFC, the San Diego Chargers (2-0) head to Maryland to face the surprising Baltimore Ravens (3-0) as both try to keep pace atop the conference standings. Betting Lines makers at MySportsbook.com, online sportsbook and casino, have set the Bears as 3.5 point favorites while the Chargers are a 2.5 point bet.
Of the three remaining undefeated teams, only one, New Orleans, enters this week's game as an underdog. Despite an emotional and resounding win over Atlanta on Monday night, the Saints are a 7.5 point underdog against the struggling Carolina Panthers. Indianapolis looks to stay perfect when they face the New York Jets as a 9 point road favorite while the Cincinnati Bengals are a 6 point favorite at home to the New England Patriots.
Six teams enter the week still looking for their first win, with a seventh, Tampa Bay, on a bye week. The prospect of dropping another game would not bode well for a potential playoff run. Since 1990, just three teams -- the 1992 Chargers, 1995 Detroit Lions and 1998 Buffalo Bills -- have overcome losing their first three games of the season to earn a postseason berth. And only the Chargers managed to accomplish the feat after starting 0-4.
