Mariners hold off A'sBaseball Betting Lines09/08/2010 - Oakland (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Ichiro Suzuki registered two more hits in his quest for his 10th consecutive 200-hit season and drove in a run, as Seattle held off Oakland, 7-5, hampering the Athletics in their attempt to gain ground in the AL West. Adam Moore homered and knocked in two runs for the Mariners, who also received two RBI from Casey Kotchman. Seattle snapped a six-game skid in Oakland. Doug Fister (5-11) pitched five innings and broke a three-start losing streak. He allowed five hits, two runs, walked four and fanned the same number of batters. Suzuki currently has 181 hits. With 19 more hits he would break the American League record for 200-hit seasons in a career (currently tied with Ty Cobb) and tie the major league record held by Pete Rose. Dallas Braden (9-11) was pounded for nine hits and six runs over five frames for the A's, who had won three of their last four contests. They had a chance to gain ground on Texas in the AL West after the Rangers lost in Toronto earlier Tuesday. The A's, though, remained seven games out of first place. Facing a five-run deficit, the A's brought the potential winning run in the plate in the ninth. Pinch-hitter Coco Crisp singled in a pair of runs with two outs in the ninth off Brandon League. Jeremy Hermida then singled to right field. League threw a wild pitch while walking Steve Tolleson, allowing Crisp to come home. David Aardsma was summoned from the bullpen and retired Cliff Pennington on a lazy fly ball to left field. Aardsma earned his 29th save. The Mariners struck for five runs in the second inning. Franklin Gutierrez walked and Jose Lopez singled to set up Kotchman's RBI base hit to left. Lopez went to third on Pennington's throwing error, and Moore followed with a sacrifice fly. Then came five straight base hits. After Matt Tuiasosopo singled, Jose Wilson and Suzuki each drove in a run with hits. Chone Figgins reached base and Russell Branyan completed the uprising with an RBI base hit to right field. Moore homered to left-center with one gone in the third for a 6-0 lead. Kurt Suzuki singled in a pair in the Oakland fifth, but the A's wasted a bases-loaded chance in the sixth when Suzuki grounded out. Kotchman's sacrifice fly plated Michael Saunders in the seventh. Game Notes Fister moved to 4-1 lifetime against the A's...Oakland first baseman Daric Barton has reached base via hit or walk in 22 of his last 23 games...The A's lead the season series 8-6...Oakland left 13 men on base.

Football Betting Sportsbook Accepts Credit CardsMichael Vick is back, Brett Favre isn't and the NFC East remains the best division in the NFC, maybe in all of football. As players start to gather for the start of another season, some things change and some stay the same in the world of the NFL. The NFC East has been the dominant division in the National Conference for a while, despite limited playoff success, save for the New York Giants surprise Super Bowl win two seasons ago. Hell, there's a generation of kids in Texas who have never seen the Cowboys win a playoff game (last win was in 1996). But collectively, the Giants, Eagles, Cowboys and Redskins (well, maybe not so much the Redskins) are as good as a division gets in an NFC conference that has struggled to stay competitive with the AFC side. Sports bettors have both acknowledged the NFC East's dominance, as one glance at the NFL future odds menu will show. Looking over the NFL betting odds at online sports book MySportsbook.com we see the top three teams listed to win the NFC Championship are all from the NFC East: Dallas Cowboys - 7 - 1 Philadelphia Eagles - 13 - 2 New York Giants - 9 - 2 Slotting in behind these three are two teams from the NFC North: the Minnesota Vikings (15-2) and the Chicago Bears (10-1). Again, despite the lack of recent playoff success, the Dallas Cowboys are popular with the sports betting community, as they hold 14% of all the money wagered on who will win the NFC Championship. So far, the New York Giants are the bettors' favorite to represent their conference in the Super Bowl, as they have 24% of the overall NFC Championship betting volume. And what about the Philadelphia Eagles? For the most part, the Eagles had a very productive offseason, the kind that could bring them back to the top. They had a good draft adding the likes of WR Jeremy Maclin and RB LeSean McCoy. Unfortunately, the team received a blow when long-time defensive coordinator Jim Johnson passed away on Tuesday. But this team will make a real run at the division title this year. Going into the regular season, Philly is listed at +240 to win the division. Last season the Eagles were 9-6-1 SU and 10-6 ATS. Teams from the NFC East will play teams from the AFC West in the regular season and the Eagles haven't really been a good bet in the last 20 games against the likes of San Diego, Oakland, K.C. and Denver, only going 8-12 ATS. Two seasons removed from that Super Bowl title, the New York Giants see themselves listed as the odds-on favorite in NFC East championship futures at +162. Plaxico Burress is gone and with him all the bad publicity surrounding the gun in the sweatpants incident, but can they replace him in the offense? Last season the Giants were a very reliable bet going 12-4 ATS. In the Giants' last 20 games against fellow teams from the NFC East; they are 13-7 ATS. Dallas is listed at +240 to win the division. Dallas went 9-7 SU and 7-9 ATS last season and with the amount of talent the Cowboys have, a similar performance won't do. The Cowboys have been atrocious against divisional rivals, going 6-14 ATS in their last 20. The Washington Redskins are longshots to win the division at +550.

MySportsbook.com: NBA Championship Odds With the playoffs about two months away, the top two teams in the Western Conference are the clear cut leaders to win the NBA Championship. The Dallas Mavericks have the best record in the NBA (44-9) and have been absolutely scorching since the second week of the season. What makes the Mavs’ record more impressive is the fact that they dropped their first four games of the season. Currently they have won 17 out of their last 18 and are MySportsbook.com’s favorite (2-1) to win it all. Right behind the Mavs are the Pacific leading Phoenix Suns (39-13). Last season, the Suns lost in the Conference Finals to non-other then the Mavericks four games to two. Of course the Suns were without center Amare Stoudemire who has is averaging 19.9 PPG and 9.5 RPG since coming back from his knee injury. Unlike the Mavs, the Suns have struggled a bit lately having lost their last three and four out of their last seven. Of course the main reason for their three straight loses is due to the absence of two time MVP Steve Nash, who is out with a shoulder injury. Heads-up, the Mavs have beaten the Suns in both of their meetings this season. In the Eastern Conference, the Pistons (32-19) are the favorites to win it all at 6-1. The addition of Chris Webber seems to have been a good move for the Pistons. Since coming over from the 76ers, Webber has averaged 13.1 PPG and 7.3 RPG and the Pistons are 11-4. Even though the defending champion Heat are currently on the playoff making cusp, they are the Eastern Conference team that is getting the most action to win it all (9-1). The fact that Shaquille O’Neal is back in the starting lineup after missing 39 games probably has something to do with this. No doubt, Shaq makes a difference when in the lineup as their winning six out of their last seven would indicate. Just because it is the All-Star break doesn’t mean that you can’t bet on NBA hoops this weekend. Be sure to log onto MySportsbook.com to bet on who you think will cut down the nets this July.
