Brewers edge Cubs in 10th on error

Baseball Betting Lines

06/10/2010 - Milwaukee, WI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Carlos Gomez scored the game-winning run on a throwing error in the bottom of the 10th inning, as the Milwaukee Brewers edged the Chicago Cubs, 5-4, in the rubber match of a three-game series at Miller Park.

Chicago reliever Bob Howry (1-1) walked Gomez, pinch-hitting for John Axford (3-1), on four pitches to begin the 10th. Craig Counsell dropped a sacrifice bunt down the third base line as Gomez took off for second. Counsell was thrown out at first, but Gomez continued to third base. Xavier Nady's throw to third sailed over the head of catcher Koyie Hill, allowing Gomez to score the winning run.

"Gomez was flying around the bases," said Milwaukee manager Ken Macha. "There were a bunch of unusual things out there. Our last three runs came without a hit."

Corey Hart hit a solo home run, his NL-best 16th of the season, for the Brewers, who have won three of four. Milwaukee starter Dave Bush gave up four runs on six hits and three walks over six innings. He also stroked an RBI single.

Nady blasted a two-run homer and added a sacrifice fly for Chicago, which went 3-6 on its road trip. Ryan Dempster allowed three runs -- two earned -- on five hits and five walks in 5 1/3 innings.

"We only won one game in each of the three cities," said Cubs manager Lou Piniella. "We needed to do much better on this road trip."

Milwaukee grabbed a 1-0 lead in the second inning, when Hart homered to center field. Nady's sac fly tied the game in the fourth, but the Brewers regained the lead in the home half on a run-scoring single by Bush.

After the teams traded runs in the fifth, Marlon Byrd walked to begin the next inning and scored on Nady's one-out blast to left-center field. The home run gave the visitors a 4-3 lead, their first of the game, but it was quickly erased in the bottom of the sixth after Chicago reliever Jeff Stevens issued a bases-loaded walk to Ryan Braun.

Game Notes

Byrd and Ryan Theriot each had three hits for Chicago...The Cubs committed three errors...The teams combined to go 2-for-21 with runners in scoring position...Dempster had won four consecutive starts against the Brewers.

Pro Football Odds : NFC SOUTH BETTING ODDS

NFL Sports Betting

NFL betting action is back! At MySportsbook, all of the pro football odds are posted for the NFC North. Check out how we see the four teams in this cloudy division stacking up this year in the chase for the playoffs! Green Bay Packers (+125) - With QB Aaron Rodgers leading the offense and DC Dom Capers working his magic on defense, the Packers are a real force to be reckoned with.

Virtually nothing changed on this offense for Green Bay from last year to this year, save for the addition of rookie OT Brian Bulaga to the bunch. Expect more huge numbers from the Pack, and a relatively favorable schedule should get them over the hump and into the playoffs once again this season. My NFL Betting Predictions: 11-5, 1st place in NFC North Minnesota Vikings (+130) - There are still too many unknowns about the Vikes this year. There is a huge difference between QB Brett Favre and either Tarvaris Jackson or Sage Rosenfels under center. Plus, is Favre comes back, is he really going to be able to keep his pick total under double digits again? Depth at running back looked like it might have been an issue with RB Chester Taylor fleeing in free agency, but drafting RB Toby Gerhart should pick up the difference. This defense is still suitable, but with a first place schedule, making the playoffs is going to be very tough regardless of whether #4 comes back or not.

Chicago Bears (+350) - The Bears are probably a bit of an overhyped team once again this year.No, we don't think it is plausible for QB Jay Cutler to have as bad of a season as he did last year, and we do think the additions of RB Chester Taylor and DE Julius Peppers are going to help immensely, but there's still something in the water in the Windy City that we aren't so sure about. Maybe Chicago finds its way to .500... but then again, maybe it doesn't. If Favre comes back, Cutler might be the worst quarterback in this division this year.

Detroit Lions (+1500) - The Lions are probably once again going to be the whipping boys for the rest of the teams in the NFC North, but they aren't just going to roll over and die once again. There is some real talent amassing on this team offensively, as the combination of QB Matt Stafford, RB Jahvid Best, WR Calvin Johnson, and TE Brandon Pettigrew should put a bunch of points on the board if the offensive line can even remotely hold up. The questions really lie on defense, where it feels like DT Ndamukong Suh is going to be trying to stop opposing teams all by himself. This year should show some marked improvement in the Motor City.

The Patriots will make NFL betting fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash.
