Inning Campana Smash Smash Over Marmol

Baseball Betting Lines

Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - In hindsight, perhaps Boston starter John Lackey should have pitched around Raul Ibanez. The Philadelphia left fielder clubbed a tiebreaking, solo home run in the seventh inning, and the Phillies edged the Red Sox, 2-1, in the middle test of a three-game interleague series at Citizens Bank Park.

 

Anaheim, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Howie Kendrick's double-play ground ball provided the game's only run, as Dan Haren outdueled Jordan Zimmermann to help the Angels complete a three-game sweep of the Nationals, 1-0. Haren (8-5) allowed two hits, walked one, hit another and struck out six in 7 1/3 scoreless innings. The only hit he allowed prior to Ivan Rodriguez's one- out base hit in the eighth was Brian Bixler's bunt single in the fourth.

 

Scott Downs recorded the final two outs of the eighth, and Jordan Walden, who blew his previous three save chances, shook off a one-out double in the ninth to notch his 18th save of the season.

 

Haren had gone through a rough patch following a fast start to the season, as he gave up at least three runs in each of his previous six outings.

 

But on Wednesday he resembled the pitcher who threw to a 1.72 earned run average over his first 10 starts, retiring the first 10 bitters he faced and setting down nine in a row after plunking Jerry Hairston Jr. with one out in the fifth inning.

 

Haren was pulled after throwing 120 pitches, and the bullpen held on for the Angels' eighth win in 10 games, with Walden striking out Michael Morse to strand Zimmerman at third.

 

Denver, CO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - A.J. Pierzynski's sacrifice fly in the ninth brought home the game-winner as the Chicago White Sox took a 3-2 win over the Colorado Rockies in the second of a three-game set. Huston Street (0-2) was on the mound to start the inning, Carlos Qunetin led off with a single and moved to third on a Paul Konerko single. After Alexei Ramirez swung at a pitch in the dirt to strikeout, Pierzysnki hit a short fly ball to right.

 

Seth Smith came up with the catch on the run and made a strong throw to the plate, but it short-hopped and Chris Iannetta was unable to come up with the ball as the White Sox took a 3-2 lead.

 

After an intentional walk to Pablo Sandoval, Campana missed a diving attempt at a catch of an Aubrey Huff hit to right-center. Marmol (2-2), though, got Cody Ross to ground into a 6-4-3 double play.

 

Dempster, who threw 83 pitches, outdueled two-time NL Cy Young Award winner Tim Lincecum in what turned out to be a great mound matchup. Dempster allowed three hits and fanned six without walking a batter. Lincecum had nine strikeouts over his seven innings.

 

Nate Schierholtz doubled with one out in the second, but Dempster was awesome from that point on.
