Baseball Betting Lines
08/22/2010 -
Kansas City, MO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Jason Kendall singled home the winning run
in the bottom of the 10th inning, and Kansas City beat the Chicago White Sox,
3-2, in the rubber match of a three-game series at Kauffman Stadium.
Gregor Blanco drew a two-out walk in the 10th off Chicago reliever Scott
Linebrink (1-1) and swiped second and third before scoring on Kendall's base
hit to left field.
The Royals and White Sox split a pair of extra-inning games on Saturday after
Friday's opener was rained out.
Kendall added an RBI double for Kansas City, which has won nine of its last 13
games at home. Royals starting pitcher Zack Greinke gave up two runs on nine
hits and struck out nine over eight innings. Sean O'Sullivan (2-4) worked a
scoreless 10th to pick up his first win as a Royal.
A.J. Pierzynski had two hits and knocked in a run for the White Sox, who have
dropped six of eight. John Danks allowed two runs on five hits and walked
three in six full frames.
Chicago is 4 1/2 games back of first-place Minnesota in the American League
Central. The Twins host the Angels on Sunday night.
Pierzynski doubled home Carlos Quentin to give the White Sox a 1-0 lead in the
top of the second.
Wilson Betemit quickly tied the game with a home run in the bottom of the
inning and the Royals moved ahead in the third, as Chris Getz led off with a
walk, stole second and came home on Kendall's soft liner to left.
Chicago pulled even in the fourth on a run-scoring single by Paul Konerko.
Game Notes
The last time the Royals played three consecutive extra-inning games was June
9-11, 2000 versus Pittsburgh...The White Sox were 1-for-10 with runners in
scoring position...Chicago shortstop Alexei Ramirez went 0-for-4 to snap a
career-high, 15-game hitting streak...Chicago outfielder Juan Pierre extended

Will Ohio State continue to run the table in College Football betting odds?
MySportsbook.com favors Buckeyes, Fighting Irish and Golden Bears in this weekend's big games.
NEW YORK, NY, Sept. 21 - My Sportsbook NCAA football fans: things are beginning to get really interesting on college football's national stage. Following last weekend's "Separation Saturday", which included five teams ranked in the top 15 dropping games, the BCS Championship picture is beginning to take shape - with Ohio State leading the charge. And, according to odds makers at MySportsbook.com, the number-one-ranked Buckeyes will continue their winning ways this weekend.
Revenge will be the name of the game in Columbus this Saturday, as Ohio State looks to even the score following last season's loss to Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions. Although Penn State are listed as 16.5 point underdogs, they are 11-10 all-time versus the Buckeyes. Paterno and the Lions, however, will have to shut down Heisman Trophy favorite Troy Smith who has thrown for 769 yards and seven touchdowns this season.
Speaking of revenge, Notre Dame will be out for some against Michigan State, following last year's 44 - 41 overtime loss to the Spartans in South Bend. The thirteenth-ranked Irish, listed as a 3-point favorite, will also be looking to avenge last Saturday's thrashing from the Michigan Wolverines. The Spartans, meanwhile, have won seven of the last nine match-ups against Notre Dame and are coming off an impressive 38-23 victory over Pittsburgh.
Out west, 22nd-ranked Arizona State will be battling for their first victory over 21st-ranked California since 2000. Although the Golden Bears are listed as 7.5-point favorites, the Sun Devils are 3-0, lead the nation in sacks with 18 and possess the Pac-10's leading passer in sophomore quarterback Rudy Carpenter.
