07/20/2010 - Miami, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Melvin Mora finished a triple shy of the cycle and Jeff Francis tossed seven scoreless innings, as the Colorado Rockies dominated the Florida Marlins, 10-0, in the second test of a four-game series at Sun Life Stadium.
Mora went 3-for-5 with a two-run homer and five RBI for the Rockies, who bounced back from a 9-8 loss in the opener of this series on Monday.
Francis (3-3) fanned a season-best seven batters and allowed just three hits to pick up his first victory since June 13. The left-hander was 0-1 with an 8.03 earned run average in his previous five starts.
Florida starter Nate Robertson (6-8) got rocked in five innings, giving up eight runs -- seven earned -- on six hits. The 32-year-old southpaw also struck out five and walked two in his second straight loss for the Marlins, who had a three-game winning streak snapped.
The Rockies exploded for six runs in the third to take control. Ian Stewart singled and Clint Barmes walked to get the frame started. Francis put down a bunt and reached first on Robertson's fielding error to load the bases. Dexter Fowler forced in a run when he was hit by a pitch. Robertson's control issues continued when he walked Jonathan Herrera to plate another run. Mora stepped to the plate and cleared the bases with a double. Chris Iannetta added an RBI double two batters later to make it a 6-0 game.
Mora's two-run homer to left in the fifth gave Colorado an 8-0 lead.
Francis retired 12 straight batters before giving up a leadoff single to Jorge Cantu in the home fifth.
The Rockies added two more runs in the seventh to make it a 10-0 game. Brad Eldred drove in a run with an infield single and Stewart walked with the bases loaded to force in a run.
Game Notes
The Rockies took two of three from the Marlins at home from April 24-25...Florida was without outfielder Chris Coghlan (back)...Rockies outfielder Carlos Gonzalez (finger) missed the game...Robertson fell to 0-3 lifetime against Colorado.

The most popular sports to bet on are NFL and college football along with NBA and NCAA basketball. There are multiple betting opportunities within those sports, beginning with the basic wager on a game’s outcome (also called betting the side). College Football Point spreads are used in both football and basketball in an attempt to even the attractiveness of each team in a match-up. ( See our article detailing how and why point spreads are made)
But you could also simply bet on the money line, or straight-up winner of the game. Oddsmakers use the money line so that more money must be risked on the favorite or expected winner and less money on the underdog to balance the action on both sides. While money line gambling is an attractive option for football and basketball bettors who only care about picking a winner, it is the primary option for those bettors who enjoy wagering on MLB baseball and individual sports like boxing, tennis, golf and racing events such as NASCAR. ( More details on playing the Money Line)
Another bet across all major team sports including football, basketball, baseball, and hockey involves wagering on the amount of scoring in a game, called an Over/Under total. For example, the Over/Under total on Super Bowl XXXIX was 48, which means a bettor could wager whether there would be more or less than 48 points scored by both teams combined in the game.
The final score of Super Bowl XXXIX was 24-21; the scoring of both teams added up to 45, which means the game went Under . So Under bettors won, and Over bettors lost.
Sports gambling doesn’t end there. Betting sides and totals are the most common wagers available everywhere, but many sportsbooks also offer future bets on big upcoming events like who will win next year’s Super Bowl and what movie will win Best Picture at the Academy Awards.
The main advantage of futures is that you can get appealing odds by betting far in advance. For example, with NFL futures you often can get much higher odds on a team by betting before the season even starts. A NFL future bet on a team to win the Super Bowl odds might be 20/1 in the preseason; but by midseason, their odds might decrease to 10/1 if they turn out to be legitimate championship contenders.
Involves one individual wager, whether it be on your team to cover the point spread, to win the game straight-up on the money line, or to go over/under the total.
