Brewers edge Phils

Baseball Betting Lines

04/22/2009 - Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - J.J. Hardy went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, as the Milwaukee Brewers hung on to beat the Philadelphia Phillies, 3-1, in the middle installment of a three-game set at Citizens Bank Park.

Mike Cameron went 1-for-4 with a two-run double for the Brewers, who had lost three of their previous four outings. Corey Hart went 2-for-4 with a run scored.

Braden Looper (2-0) allowed five hits in a scoreless six-inning start to collect the win for Milwaukee. He also walked two in his third start of the season. Todd Coffey gave up a solo shot in the ninth, but was able to get out of a jam to pick up his second save of the year.

"Looper did a good job. Usually we hit him pretty good, but we couldn't muster any runs," Phillies manager Charlie Manuel said.

Jayson Werth went 2-for-4 and had the lone run of the game for Philadelphia with a solo homer.

Joe Blanton (0-2) gave up three runs on eight hits with five strikeouts to take the loss for the Phillies, who won 11-4 in the opener of the series on Tuesday. Blanton dropped his ERA to 7.31.

Trailing 3-0, Philadelphia tried to come back in the ninth. Coffey started the frame by getting Ryan Howard to go down swinging, but allowed Werth to hit a solo homer over the center-field wall. Raul Ibanez followed with a single to left and was thrown out at second when Pedro Feliz grounded into a force out. Pinch-hitter Matt Stairs set up a first and third with two outs by stroking a single to right field. Coffey got pinch-hitter Chris Coste to go down swinging to seal the victory.

The first run of the game didn't come until the fifth when Hardy belted a homer for Milwaukee. After Cameron grounded out to begin the frame, Hardy drove a 3-2 changeup from Blanton over the wall in left. A Jason Kendall single was sandwiched between fly outs from Craig Counsell and Looper to end the inning.

The Brewers added two runs in the sixth to extend their lead to 3-0. Hart singled and Ryan Braun walked with one gone. Blanton got Prince Fielder to fly out, but allowed Cameron to stroke a two-run double down the left-field line. Hardy went down looking to end the inning.

Looper ran into a bit of trouble in the home half of the sixth, but was able to work his way out of the jam. After retiring the first two batters, Looper walked Howard and gave up an infield single to Werth. Ibanez lined out to right fielder Hart to end the frame, though.

Mark DiFelice and Carlos Villanueva retired the Phillies in order in the seventh and eighth inning, respectively.

Game Notes

Ibanez went 1-for-4 to improve his hitting streak to nine games...The last time Blanton faced the Brewers, he pitched the Phillies into the NLCS...Philadelphia won five of six versus Milwaukee last year, including a four-game sweep at home from September 11-14 that caused the Brewers to stumble down the finish and heading into the playoffs.

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.
