Hanigan's bat, Chapman's arm lead Reds over Brewers

Baseball Betting Lines

09/01/2010 - Cincinnati, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Ryan Hanigan's three-run homer fueled a six-run seventh inning, as the Cincinnati Reds beat Milwaukee, 6-1, to complete a three-game sweep at Great American Ball Park.

The win gave first-place Cincinnati an eight-game lead over the free-falling Cardinals in the National League Central standings.

The fateful seventh began on a promising note for Brewers starting pitcher Chris Narveson, who struck out Jonny Gomes. But he was lifted in favor of reliever Todd Coffey (2-3) following a walk to Ramon Hernandez.

Miguel Cairo greeted Coffey with a double that plated pinch-runner Brandon Phillips with the tying run. Paul Janish then reached on an infield single and Hanigan, pinch-hitting for rookie phenom Aroldis Chapman (1-0), followed by giving Cincinnati the lead with a blast to left field.

Mike McClendon replaced the ineffective Coffey and couldn't record an out as well, walking Drew Stubbs and yielding a single to Chris Heisey. Zach Braddock took over on the mound and walked Joey Votto to load the bases for Scott Rolen, who ripped a two-run single to right to put the Reds up 6-1.

Coming off an electric debut on Tuesday, Chapman struck out a pair in a flawless seventh to pick up his first major-league win in relief of Johnny Cueto, who scattered five hits and one run in six innings.

Narveson had allowed two hits, walked two and fanned six through 6 1/3 innings. The left-hander also knocked in Milwaukee's lone run with a single in the fifth.

MySportsbook.com week 1 NFL lines


Now that the 2008 NFL schedule is finally out, it is only matter-of-course for lines on “Week 1” to follow.  Of course MySportsbook.com is the first to churn out odds for the NFL’s inaugural week for the upcoming season.   Expect a lot of fireworks the first Thursday night of the season as the defending champion Indianapolis Colts face off against the surprise of the 2008 season, the New Orleans Saints.  These teams were ranked #1 and #3 in the NFL respectively a season ago so a high scoring affair could be in order.  As of now, the Colts will be giving 6 points to the Saints; keep in mind the Saints were one of the better road teams last season going 6-3 SU and 7-2 ATS.  The first Monday night of the season will again provide a “double feature”. Coming off a disappointing season, the Cincinnati Bengals will look to get back to playoffs and improve their public image as they take on the AFC North favorite Baltimore Ravens.  The second game features a couple of teams that haven’t had too much success recently but each could make some noise if the NFC is as weak as it was last year as the San Francisco 49ers host the Arizona Cardinals. The most interesting game of the opening week will feature the NFC champion Bears as they hit the road to take on the NFL’s top team during last year’s regular season, the San Diego Chargers.
