Hernandez solid as Nats down D'Backs
Baseball Betting Lines
08/03/2010 -
Phoenix, AZ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Adam Dunn and Ivan Rodriguez each hit solo home
runs for Washington, and Livan Hernandez pitched effectively into the eighth
inning in a 3-1 victory over Arizona in the opener of a four-game set.
Hernandez (8-7), coming off his shortest stint of the season, allowed only
five hits, one walk and one run to go with five strikeouts in 7 1/3 innings
for the Nationals, who were coming off a 4-2 homestand.
Sean Burnett recorded the final five outs for his first save of the season.
Rodriguez's blast was the 300th of his career as a catcher, joining four other
backstops to accomplish such a feat.
Rodrigo Lopez (5-10) took the loss in a quality start, yielding three runs on
seven hits and two walks in seven frames for the Diamondbacks, who left all
their offense in New York after taking two of three from the Mets by a 27-12
margin.
Justin Upton went 0-for-4, snapping a 17-game hitting streak in defeat.
Lopez got off to a slow start in the first inning, though he limited the
damage to one run. The right-hander picked off Nyjer Morgan following his
leadoff single then walked the next two batters.
Josh Willingham's two-out single plated Adam Kennedy for a 1-0 game, and
Rodriguez blasted his second homer of the season leading off the next frame.
Mark Reynolds scored Arizona's only run in the bottom half on a Gerardo Parra
groundout, and Dunn got the run right back for the visitors with his 26th
round-tripper of the year in the third.
Washington wasted runners on second and third with one out in the seventh, and
Arizona failed to score with two on and one out in the eighth, as Burnett
relieved Hernandez and fanned Kelly Johnson, then got Upton to chase a 3-0
pitch out of the zone for a weak groundout to short.
Burnett closed out the win in the ninth by retiring Arizona's 4-5-6 hitters in
order.
Game Notes
This was the first meeting between the clubs this season...Hernandez, who
pitched for Arizona during the 2006 and '07 seasons, lasted just 4 1/3 innings
against the Braves last Wednesday, taking the loss in a 3-1 decision...
Rodriguez joins Mike Piazza (396), Carlton Fisk (351), Johnny Bench (327) and
Yogi Berra (306) in the elite 300-home run club for catchers...Stephen Drew
had two of Arizona's five hits...Game time: 2:19.

American Idol Betting Odds: Season 6
The online gambling websites are in the process of deciphering each American Idol contestant and his or her chances of winning Season 6 to come up with the early American Idol betting lines.
Tim Dalton of MySportsbook.com has been locked away in a soundproof room coming up with all the latest tallies, we are told. "American Idol has become one of the most significant betting events of the year," claims Jack Black of MySportsbook.com. "Last year, millions were bet during the season across the globe, not just in America.
It's tough early on since we really do not have a glimpse as to how well each of these individuals will perform solo on a week-to-week basis. It's like Week 1 of the NFL. Pre-season means nada!
We do know the 24 finalists however.
Sanjaya Malakar is the young man whose sister failed to make it into the Top 24. He's very low key but - unless he totally flubs - will probably win over the young girlie vote for a few weeks anyway. He's too young to go all the way, according to Payton O'Brien.
Brandon Rogers - Who?
Phil Stacy is the military guy who missed his daughter's birth because of the Memphis audition. He should go a good distance.
Chris Sligh - He's got the humor and in many ways he's the Anti-American Idol much like last year's winner Taylor Hicks was. And this is why he'll probably get pretty far in this competition. He's chubby, white with a big curly afro....but more importantly, a great voice! People love "real", not "real cute" to go all the way.
"Blake Lewis should go far because of his uniqueness and looks. He's the boy next store with a twist - he beat boxes. But on top of this, he's a great singer, and I adore him," Payton O'Brien relayed.
A talented beat-boxer Blake Lewis was a hit during the group sing in Hollywood but Simon explained that this is a singing contest just before he told him he was “in.”
Paul Kim has caught our own roving reporter, Jenny Woo's eyes.
"I love the fact that there is a Korean American on the show and he is bound to get more Asians tuning into the show," Woo said from her Miami Beach estate. "There has never been a major presence of Asian-Americans on American Idol in the past. He's a hottie with a nice voice so that should help to take him far. Expect heavy betting action from the Asian community."
Sundance Head - He's not perfect, but he's got the personality that will take him through a few weeks, plus he's got the lineage (son of Roy Head - whose 1965 single, "Treat Her Right," hit No. 5 in the charts)
And the others:
Rudy Cardinas
AJ Tabaldo - the 5th time is the charm
Nicolas Pedro
Chris Richardson
Jared Cotter
The girls
"Melinda Doolittle has one of the best voices," says MySportsbook.com Reporter and an acclaimed dancer in her own right, Destiney Lewis. "It is great to see a back up singer step out like she has. The girl needs to gain more confidence but that can also be a positive. I think she will go far."
Alena Alexander - Those tears (she never seems to stop bawling) should get her far.
"Single mom Lakisha Jones I suspect will be a pretty big favorite entering Week 1 of the competition," says Destiny Williams. Jones is an excellent singer and down to earth. "She'll have a wide appeal," echoed O'Brien.
Nicole Trellis - Seems to exert confidence.
Amy Krebs - a powerful singer.
Antonella Barba
Gina Glocksen
Hailey Scanardo
Jordan Sparks
Stephanie Edwards
Leslie Hunt
Sabrina Sloan
