Dodgers finally solve Angels
Baseball Betting Lines
06/25/2010 -
Anaheim, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Rafael Furcal's two-run double fueled a five-
run fourth inning, as the Dodgers notched their first win this season in the
Freeway Series with a 10-6 decision over the Angels.
Casey Blake and Jamey Carroll collected three hits apiece and knocked in a run
for the Dodgers, who snapped a six-game losing streak and avoided a third
consecutive interleague sweep.
"Putting the five-spot up in the fourth was big and it was nice that we
continued to score," said Dodgers manager Joe Torre. "We were aggressive on
the basepaths. We had a lot of life tonight."
Charlie Haeger returned from a stint on the disabled list with a sprained
right toe to start for the Dodgers. The knuckleballer gave up four runs on
five hits and four walks over 4 2/3 innings. Jeff Weaver (4-1) tossed a
scoreless inning to get the win.
Bobby Abreu went 2-for-3 with two walks and two runs batted in for the Angels,
who posted a 5-1 record against their crosstown rivals.
Scott Kazmir (7-6) allowed five runs on six hits in 3 2/3 innings. He had won
four straight starts.
Abreu's RBI single staked the Angels to a 1-0 lead in the first inning, but
the Dodgers erupted in the fourth.
Matt Kemp led off with a single and Kazmir hit James Loney with a pitch. After
Russell Martin drew a one-out walk, Reed Johnson reached on an infield single
to plate the tying run. Furcal's double gave the visitors the lead and Carroll
singled home Johnson before Furcal scored on a fielder's choice to make 5-1.
"My fastball command wasn't there, but I had a good feel with other pitches,"
Kazmir said. "Hitting Loney and walking Martin in the fourth was big. You
can't give guys free bases."
Mike Napoli hit a solo home run to center field off Haeger in the fourth. A
sacrifice fly by Martin in the fifth restored the Dodgers' four-run advantage.
Torii Hunter and Hideki Matsui stroked RBI singles to trim the Angels' deficit
to 6-4 in the bottom of the inning.
The Dodgers increased their lead to 8-4 in the seventh on RBI singles by Manny
Ramirez and Blake. Ramirez and Loney both contributed run-scoring singles in
the eighth.
The Angels picked up two runs in the ninth on a double by Kevin Frandsen and
single by Abreu.

Albert Pujols to be This Year's Home Run Champ Says Online Sportsbook
Barry Bonds is a 50-1 long shot to be this year's home run champ odds. The favorite to be this year's home run champ is none other than Albert Pujols, however.
Now that Barry Bonds is signed and in Giants camp, it is on to his pursuit of all of sports most prestigious records: the all-time home run mark. Bonds sits just 21 homers shy of tying Hank Aaron for the career mark at 755. Word out of Giants’ camp is that Bonds is the healthiest he has been in a few years. Bonds is just two seasons removed from his injury riddled 2005 campaign where he played in only 14 games and hit only 5 home runs. He did come back last year and had a solid season hitting .270 with 26 bombs. All eyes will be on Bonds this spring and summer not only because of his home run chase but his highly publicized steroid abuse allegations. If and when Bonds breaks the record, he surely will not get the positive attention one should for breaking a record that was once thought of as “unbreakable”. Despite Bonds decent season last year, he is just 50-1 at MySportsbook.com to lead the MLB in long balls this season.
Not surprisingly, the favorites to go deep the most times this season are Albert Pujols 5-1, Ryan Howard 6-1, David Ortiz 8-1 and Alex Rodriguez 12-1. With 49 homers, Pujols finished second in the National League behind Howard (58). Pujols is considered the favorite due to the consistent power numbers that he has posted since breaking into the league in 2001. Also one must consider the fact that he played in 16 fewer games then Howard did due to an injury. Howard smashed 58 homers in his first complete season of big league play en route to the National League MVP odds award. He silenced his critics by successfully hitting left-handed pitching. Howard also displayed the ability to use his power to the opposite field. Two attributes which should keep Howard amongst the league leaders in long balls for years to come. From the American League representatives, David Ortiz leads the field. Ortiz was second in the majors last year with 54 home runs. Except for 1999 when he only played in 10 games, Ortiz has improved on his home run numbers each year he has been in the majors (1997).
