Olivo powers Fish past Phils

Baseball Betting Lines

09/08/2007 - Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Miguel Olivo went 2-for-3 with a solo homer, two RBI and two runs scored as the Florida Marlins downed the Philadelphia Phillies, 6-3, to open a three-game set at Citizens Bank Park.

Cody Ross had a pair of hits, scored a run and drove in one while Byung-Hyun Kim (9-6) pitched six innings of seven-hit, three-run ball for the Marlins, who snapped a three-game losing streak.

J.D. Durbin (6-5) got the loss after giving up five runs, two earned, on five hits with four walks and three strikeouts in 4 1/3 innings. Pat Burrell hit a three-run home run for the Phillies, who have dropped five of their last six games.

Philadelphia now sits six games behind the Mets for first place in the NL East and 3 1/2 games behind San Diego for the wild card.

Florida took the lead in the second inning. With runners on first and third and one out, Ross punched a double to left that scored both Miguel Cabrera and then Mike Jacobs, when Burrell misplayed fumbled the ball in the corner. After Olivo walked, Kim laid down a sac bunt that Ryan Howard fielded cleanly, but threw into the outfield trying to get Ross at third, allowing both Ross and Olivo to score for a 4-0 lead.

Burrell atoned for his error in the third when he blasted a three-run shot over the left field wall that just barely stayed fair to make it a 4-3 game.

However, the Marlins got a run back in the fourth when Olivo knocked a solo homer into the left field stands for a 5-3 advantage.

The Phillies had a chance to make it a one-run game in the fifth when Rod Barajas led off with a double, but Kim retired the next three batters to kill the threat.

Florida tacked on some insurance in the eighth as Olivo's double off the center field wall plated Reggie Abercrombie for a 6-3 lead.

Super Bowl XLIII Betting - Super Bowl 2009

Super Bowl 2009, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Let’s take a look at the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds and the betting line and figure out where they’ve been and where they are going to go.

MySportsbook.com put up the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds late on Sunday night with the Pittsburgh Steelers favored by 6.5 points and a total betting line at 47.5 points.

Since then, however, the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds have seen a good deal of movement and you’ll want to be on top of where they are likely to move to make sure you get the best line value for the big game.

Since opening, the Super Bowl 2009 betting lines went to Steelers -7 in the span of roughly 3 hours but were quickly bought back down just minutes later to 6.5 again.

After that is took about 5-6 more hours before the betting line went back to -7 where it has sat for a while now and is likely to remain. The opening betting total of 47.5 was bet down right after the line became available and went to 47 within minutes.

Roughly a day later it has been bet even further down to the 46.5 tally it currently is set at.

Roughly 60% of gamblers seem to be on the Cardinals here so the point spread will be bet down and a 7.5 would not last very long at all with many taking the early 6.5 in hopes of finding a potential middle in the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds.

If you like Arizona and see a 7.5, I’d take it as soon as possible because it’s unlikely to last. For Pittsburgh backers, the -7 might be the best you’ll be able to find but a 6.5 is definitely possible close to game time.

Regarding the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds for the total, most tracked gamblers are already on the over and with those who took the under 47.5 already securing a middle on the over 46.5, the only way I see it moving is back up to 47 so if you like the over, I’d recommend betting now.
