04/07/2010 -
Oakland, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Mark Ellis singled in the winning run with two
outs in the bottom of the 10th inning, lifting Oakland to a 2-1 win over
Seattle in the second installment of a season-opening four-game series.
One night after the Mariners won the game, 5-3, with a pair of runs in the
ninth inning, the A's earned the victory in their final at-bat, capping a
three-hit night for Ellis.
Kurt Suzuki homered in the fourth inning for the Athletics, who snapped an
eight-game skid going back to last season.
A's starter Dallas Braden had a career-high 10 strikeouts, while giving up
four hits and a run over seven innings.
Ian Snell threw the first six frames for the Mariners and yielded three hits
and a run with a pair of walks while fanning four.
Seattle's lone run came in the fourth inning when Franklin Gutierrez scored on
a wild pitch.
Seattle right-hander Kanekoa Texeira (0-1), who suffered the loss, made his
major league debut and escaped a huge jam in the ninth. Ellis singled and
Travis Buck had a broken-bat double, both with one out. Cliff Pennington then
walked, but Rajai Davis struck out on a low pitch. Daric Barton got ahead 3-1
in the count, but was out on a lazy fly ball to left.
Edwar Ramirez (1-0) retired the side in order in the top of the 10th, and
Texeira fanned Ryan Sweeney to start the bottom of the inning. Kevin
Kouzmanoff and Suzuki singled. Eric Patterson came on as a pinch-runner for
Kouzmanoff, but remained at second when Eric Chavez lined out to left. Ellis
then struck an 0-2 pitch on a line to the gap in right-center field to win the
game.
Gutierrez doubled to left with one out in the fourth, went to third on a two-
out balk and came home on a wild pitch from Braden.
The A's tied it in the bottom half when Suzuki belted a 1-1 offering from
Snell over the wall in left field. The A's loaded the bases later in the
frame, but Davis grounded back to the mound to end the threat.
Oakland didn't get another hit until the eighth on a Kouzmanoff infield
single, but Suzuki then grounded into an inning-ending double play.
Game Notes
The A's left 12 men on base...This was just the sixth win in the last 24 games
for the Athletics against the Mariners...Snell threw 100 pitches, 61 for
strikes...Mariners right fielder Ichiro Suzuki went 1-for-3 and has a 22-game
hitting streak against the A's.

NFL ODDSTop Football Betting Free Agents to Change Teams
NFL Betting
It’s time to see how the biggest NFL free agent signings will perform for their news teams. Some will work out and could be the difference that makes a difference in the win column.
We look at the best off-season signings and if they should influence your NFL betting this season. Julius Peppers – Peppers was the biggest prize available on the 2010 NFL free agent market and the Chicago Bears opened the bank to bring his talents to the south side.
Peppers is explosive, he can get around blockers and cause quarterbacks to lose their minds. We all remember the classic Peppers game last year against the Vikings where he hounded Brett Favre into his worst game of the season. Peppers joining the Bears could be the reason Favre retired for good Tuesday morning. In addition to Peppers, the Bears added Chester Taylor to back up Matt Forte, Forte didn’t have the same intensity in 2009 compared to 2008 and bringing in Taylor will challenge Forte to bring it every game or he’ll risk losing carries to Taylor.
Betting on the Bears is a good option this season because of Julius Peppers and to a lesser extent Taylor. Antonio Bryant and Terrell Owens – The Cincinnati Bengals signed two former number one wide receivers to line up with Chad Ocho Cinco. Antonio Bryant had a huge season in 2008 catching 83 passes for over 1200 yards but regressed last season. Playing for the Tampa Bay Bucs last season was a large part of the regression, everyone was bad in TB last season.
Bryant should have a bounce back season if he can win the number two spot from Terrell Owens. If Bryant wins the number 2 WR spot, it will open up a completely new set of problems for the Bengals. If Owens is forced to the bench in favor of Bryant, his attitude will create trouble for Carson Palmer and head coach Marv Lewis. If Owens is the number two receiver, it means Bryant can’t live up to his past numbers and the Bengals are still limited in the passing game. NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. 2010 football betting lines for this can be found at this top online sportsbook. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense.
NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense. They signed away the Arizona Cardinals top linebacker Karlos Danby. In the past two seasons, Danby has totaled 228 tackles, 5 sacks, 3 interceptions and 3 forced fumbles. The Dolphins are the forgotten team of the AFC East with the second longest odds to win the division but with the addition of Karlos Danby and a trade for WR Brandon Marshall makes the Miami Dolphins legitimate contenders in the AFC East and in the NFL’s Eastern Conference.
The Dolphins will make NFL wagering fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash. NFL Wagering
