Unpack your bags: Rockies conclude road swing against Nats

Baseball Betting Lines

07/22/2007 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Colorado Rockies will try to end their road trip on a positive note when they play the final contest of a four-game series this afternoon with the Washington Nationals at RFK Stadium.

The Rockies have lost two of three so far against the Nationals, including a 3-0 blanking in game three on Saturday, and are 5-4 on a 10-game swing.

Mike Bacsik combined with three Washington relievers on a three-hitter in the shutout. Bacsik (3-6) went 6 2/3 innings, allowing three hits and walking three.

Luis Ayala, Saul Rivera and Chad Cordero combined for 2 1/3 hitless frames of relief, with Cordero posting his 18th save of the season.

Felipe Lopez homered and Tony Batista drove in two runs for the Nationals, who have won three of four.

Colorado starter Rodrigo Lopez (5-3) allowed three runs on five hits with one walk and three strikeouts in six-plus frames. Willy Taveras, Jamey Carroll and Yorvit Torrealba accounted for the three hits for the Rockies.

Josh Fogg will take the hill for Colorado in search of his third straight victory. Fogg, who hasn't lost since June 24 at Toronto, defeated the Mets on July 4 before posting a winning decision on Tuesday at Pittsburgh behind seven innings of two-run, five-hit ball.

Fogg, who also struck out five batters, improved to 5-6 on the season with a 5.15 earned run average. The right-hander has made seven career starts against the Washington franchise and is 1-3 versus them with a 3.61 ERA.

Tim Redding is set to make his fourth start of the season for the Nationals and is 1-2 on the year with a 4.00 ERA. He took the loss last time out when he gave up three runs and seven hits over seven innings of a 4-2 loss to Houston on Tuesday.

The right-hander is without a decision in two games (one start) in his career against the Rockies though he has yielded just one run in a span of 7 1/3 innings.

Colorado won all eight meetings between the teams during the 2006 campaign. The Rockies also won four encounters at RFK Stadium over that span.

Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl Odds

Will he or won't he?  Now that the Dallas Cowboys have a new head coach in Wade Phillips, the big question will be: Does Terrell Owens stay with the team.

Jerry Jones continues to suggest that Terrell Owens will remain with the team.

"I've said that he's back, he's here, he's under contract," Jones said. "In the interviews I've just been through (to hire a new coach), it was very clear to me how highly he's thought of and how much of an impact he had on our offensive success."

Just to be sure though, Terrell Owens cleared out his locker and removed his name plate.

Terrell Owens was among the Cowboys most productive players this past season, catching 85 passes for 1,180 yards and a league-best 13 touchdowns.

But T.O. is due a $3 million roster bonus in June, then a $5 million salary this season. Cutting him before then would save a lot of money and headaches.

Aside from the questions surrounding Terrell Owens, the oddsmakers at MySportsbook.com have concerns over starting quarterback Tony Romo's state of mind and whether he will remain a starting quarterback.  It is also not known how players will adjust to new head coach, Wade Phillips.
