D-Backs edge Astros
Baseball Betting Lines
09/04/2010 -
Phoenix, AZ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Augie Ojeda's sacrifice fly in the bottom of
the eighth delivered the winning run as Arizona downed Houston, 4-3, to start
a three-game set.
Adam LaRoche went 2-for-4 with two runs batted in and Gerardo Parra added two
hits and a run scored for the Diamondbacks, who have won four in a row and
seven of their last eight games while outscoring their opponents 58-28 in the
process.
Aaron Heilman (5-5) earned the win with a scoreless top of the eighth and Juan
Gutierrez worked a scoreless ninth to preserve the win and earn his seventh
save.
Wilton Lopez (5-1) suffered the loss after yielding the deciding run on one
hit over one inning of work for the Astros, who had a three-game win streak
snuffed out.
Ryan Roberts doubled off Lopez to open the decisive frame and advanced to
third base on a Gerardo Parra groundout. Ojeda, pinch-hitting for Heilman,
then lifted a fly ball deep enough to center field to chase home Roberts with
the tie-breaking run which also ended Lopez's time on the hill.
Houston had evened the game at three when Angel Sanchez grounded into a double
play with runners at the corners and nobody out in the seventh.
Stephen Drew singled to start the home first, advanced after a walk to Chris
Young and scored when LaRoche followed with a double. However, Houston starter
Brett Myers worked his way out of further trouble by getting Mark Reynolds to
foul out, Miguel Montero to fly out to shallow right field and Brandon Allen
to pop up.
Sanchez opened the fourth with a base hit and scored to tie the game on
Jeff Keppinger's one-out single to left. Myers doubled to right with one out
in the fifth and scored on a Sanchez two-out single to right to put the Astros
in the lead for the first time.
Arizona reclaimed the lead in the fifth on consecutive run-scoring singles by
Young and LaRoche.
Daniel Hudson delivered another fine start for Arizona but was not involved in
the decision after allowing two runs on seven hits with one walk and six
strikeouts.
Myers was charged with three runs on seven hits with three walks and four
strikeouts in his six of innings, as he stretched his streak of lasting at
least six frames in each of his 28 turns this season.
Game Notes
LaRoche's two RBI give him 89 on the season, the most for a D-Backs first
baseman in a single season, surpassing Tony Clark's 87 in 2005...Drew went 1-
for-3 and has hit safely in nine of his last 10 games during which he has 18
hits...Hudson has gone at least six innings in each of his seven starts since
being acquired by the D-Backs on July 30...Arizona selected the contract of
veteran left-hand pitcher Mike Hampton from Triple-A Reno prior to the
game...Houston has lost eight of its last nine meetings with Arizona...Astros
outfielder Hunter Pence went 2-for-4 and has a team-leading 43 multi-hit
games.

The re-worked
Big 12 Conference betting odds
Work left to do: Texas Tech, Oklahoma State, Kansas State
 Texas joins Texas A&M and Kansas as locks after getting league win No. 11. Texas Tech greatly helped its own hopes and crippled OK State's with the two-point win Saturday. Is K-State the last reasonable hopeful? Could be an elimination match in Stillwater on Tuesday, at least for the Cowboys.
Work left to do:
Texas Tech [18-11 (7-7), RPI: 44, SOS: 12] A critical two-point win over OK State leaves the Red Raiders with Baylor and at Iowa State left. Get both and the Red Raiders likely are good to go. Get one and there could be some interesting comparisons with a K-State team that could finish two or three games "ahead" of them in the standings but doesn't have any of the quality wins Texas Tech has. Not a lot in nonconference play (against Arkansas in Little Rock being the best win, by far) to lean on.
Oklahoma State [18-9 (5-8), RPI: 50, SOS: 35] Still without a road win, the Cowboys now need to win two on the road just to get to .500 in conference play. It's hard to recall a team (OK, other than Clemson) falling so precipitously from lock status to almost certainly out of the NCAAs at this point. There are wins to be had in the last three, including a very big home game against K-State on Tuesday, but this team is reeling. Can you tell the pressure to win is getting to them with the way the final possession played out at Texas Tech? There are some good nonconference performances to lean on, specifically beating Missouri State and Syracuse on neutral floors and Pitt in OK City, but if the Pokes don't right this very, very soon, that won't be enough.
Kansas State [20-9 (9-5), RPI: 56, SOS: 96] It pays to be in the Big 12 North. The nine league wins are Colorado (twice), Missouri (twice), Iowa State (twice), Baylor, Nebraska and (a good one against) Texas. That helps explain the middling computer profile. The win over USC is nice, but the nonconference leaves a lot to be desired. The game at OK State in Stillwater on Tuesday is huge, as it could KO the Cowboys and leave K-State with a home date against Oklahoma with which to work.
