Capuano leads Brewers into second test with Pirates
Baseball Betting Lines
08/28/2010 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Former staff ace Chris Capuano makes his third start of the
season tonight, when the Milwaukee Brewers host the Pittsburgh Pirates in the
middle game of three over the weekend at Miller Park.
Alcides Escobar's two-run triple sparked a six-run seventh inning on Friday as
the Brewers took a 7-2 win.
Ryan Braun and Corey Hart each drove in two runs, while Jonathan Lucroy scored
twice and drove in one for the Brewers, who snapped a four-game slide.
Chris Narveson (10-7) worked seven innings and was charged with two runs on
seven hits with a walk and eight strikeouts to get the win.
Chris Snyder hit a solo home run and Ronny Cedeno drove in the other run for
the Pirates, who had won three of four coming in.
James McDonald (2-4) was charged with six runs on seven hits with two walks
and seven strikeouts over 6 1/3 innings in the loss.
Meanwhile, Capuano was an 18-game winner for Milwaukee in 2005 and followed
that campaign with 11 wins a year later before skidding to just five wins in
2007. He did not make a single big-league appearance in 2008-09.
He returned to the Brewers with a June 3 start at Florida and dropped a 3-2
decision and has since made one start and 15 trips in from the bullpen,
compiling an overall 3.72 earned run average in 29 innings.
The 6-foot-2, 224-pounder has not been scored upon in his last three relief
outings, allowing no hits and striking out seven batters over 5 2/3 innings
against Colorado, San Diego and the Los Angeles Dodgers.
He faced the Pirates three times in July and was 1-0, while surrendering four
hits and a run in 6 1/3 innings.
For Pittsburgh, Zach Duke aims for a second straight win for the third time
this season.
The 27-year-old won two straight games from April 5 and 10, then repeated the
feat on July 21 and 27, including a 15-3 rout of the Brewers.
He was a winner over the New York Mets in his most recent start on Aug. 22,
allowing five hits and a run in seven innings.
Duke is 4-7 in 16 career meetings with Milwaukee with a 6.10 ERA.

NFL Football Sports Betting
Two playoff teams from 2007 take center stage on the NFL Network Sunday night in a Week 2 NFL betting match-up when the (0-1) New England Patriots betting head south to Florida for a contest with the (1-0) Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
New England HC Bill Belichick couldn’t care less about the way his team plays in the preseason. With a chance to tie last week’s game with the Baltimore Ravens betting, He elected to go for the two-point conversion and outright victory. The conversion failed, and the Pats ended up falling to the Ravens by a 16-15 final count.
New England rolled off twelve unanswered points to give it a chance at securing the victory, but it never threatened to cover the 3.5-point spread. NFL bettors saw this one coming, as they bet the Ravens down from +6 to +3.5 as the week progressed. QB Tom Brady didn’t take part in the Patriots first preseason clash, but could see action this weekend.
His three replacements all put up embarrassing numbers. They went a combined 17 for 33, and threw three interceptions and no touchdowns. The New England defense was encouraging, as they held the Ravens to 2/12 third down conversions and surrendered just ten first downs. That ‘D’ should be bolstered with the addition of former Bucs and Denver Broncos betting safety John Lynch, who could make his Patriots debut on Sunday against his former mates.
HC Jon Gruden had to be impressed with the way his Bucs played on both sides of the ball in their dominating 17-6 victory over the Miami Dolphins in Week 1’s NFL pre-season betting action. Bucs bettors were quite happy with the effort, as they made a mockery of the fact that they were underdogs in the game.
The logjam at the quarterback position didn’t get any easier to separate for Gruden, as all four of his QBs had positive experiences in the first exhibition of 2008. The four combined to complete 28 of their 40 passes for 204 yards and a touchdown, and that was without starting QB Jeff Garcia in the lineup.
RB Michael Bennett had 19 carries and four receptions, totaling 90 yards and a touchdown. Expect to see more of Bennett, Kenneth Darby, and Earnest Graham, as they all compete for playing time with Warrick Dunn in the backfield this season. Defensively, the Bucs recorded four sacks and held the Fins offense in check all day.
First round draft pick Aqib Talib was impressive in the secondary, recording a tackle and two pass defenses in his debut. Don’t be surprised to see Talib in the starting lineup opposite Ronde Barber for the Bucs in ’08.
The betting trends suggest that NFL bettors should be backing the Bucs in this intra-conference exhibition.
These two teams hooked up last year in Tampa Bay, with the Bucs winning that game 13-10. The Buccaneers have only lost one preseason game at home dating back to the beginning of the ’05 preseason. The Patriots have had a mixed bag of results in their recent exhibitions. They have gone 2-2 ATS and SU each of the last three years.
New England currently sits as modest 1-point favorites in this preseason showdown with the ‘total’ now sitting at 34.5.
