Happ tosses shutout as Astros beat struggling CardinalsBaseball Betting Lines08/30/2010 - Houston, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - J.A. Happ tossed a two-hit shutout to lift the Houston Astros to a 3-0 win over the St. Louis Cardinals in the opener of a three-game set. Happ (5-2) walked just one and struck out four for the Astros, who have won seven of their last nine. Brett Wallace went 3-for-3 with an RBI and a run scored while Hunter Pence had two hits and a run scored in the win. Jake Westbrook (1-3) went seven innings and was charged with three runs on nine hits and a walk for the reeling Cardinals, who have dropped six of their last seven and, coupled with Cincinnati's 10th-inning win over Milwaukee, fell to six games back of the Reds for first place in the NL Central. Houston struck in the first inning, as Pence hit a two-out single and came home to score on a Carlos Lee double for a 1-0 lead. After Randy Winn hit a one-out single in the first, Happ dominated the Cardinals. He allowed only one more baserunner over the next six innings, a leadoff walk to Colby Rasmus in the third inning. Happ retired 15 straight batters through the seventh inning, including striking out Matt Holliday to end the seventh. Houston then solidified its lead in the bottom of the seventh. Chris Johnson led off with a single and Wallace followed with an RBI double. After an infield single from Tommy Manzella, Jason Castro hit into a double play that plated Wallace for a 3-0 lead. With one out in the eighth, Yadier Molina hit a single, but Colby Rasmus lined into a double play to end the inning. Happ then set the Cardinals down in order in the ninth for his first shutout and complete game of the season. Game Notes Happ has tossed three shutouts and four complete games in his career. He is now 1-2 in four career starts against St. Louis...Houston has won eight of the 13 games against St. Louis this season...Westbrook fell to 0-2 in three career starts against Houston...Houston center fielder Michael Bourn went 1-for-4 to extend his hitting streak to nine games...Holliday had his 11-game hitting streak broken with an 0-for-3 performance.

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.
