Braves outlast Marlins, rain in Florida

Baseball Betting Lines

05/28/2010 - Miami, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Martin Prado went 3-for-6 with two runs batted in and David Ross knocked in a pair, as the Atlanta Braves handled the Florida Marlins, 8-3, in the rubber match of a three-game series at Sun Life Stadium.

Yunel Escobar contributed two hits, an RBI and two runs scored for the Braves, who took the last two games in the set and have now won 12 of their last 16 overall.

Tim Hudson worked four innings before rain halted play and did not return to the mound after a one hour and 17 minute delay. The right-hander allowed two runs on five hits with a pair of walks and struck out a batter. Peter Moylan (2-0) earned the win for pitching a scoreless fifth inning after play resumed.

Hanley Ramirez went 2-for-4 with an RBI and scored, while Jorge Cantu knocked in a run for Florida, which has dropped five of the last seven.

Ricky Nolasco (4-4), like Hudson worked four frames prior to the stoppage, and yielded eight hits and three runs while fanning three without issuing a walk. Nolasco also chipped in with an RBI single.

Chipper Jones' double off the left-field wall in the top of the first plated Jason Heyward, who tripled to straightaway center.

In the home half, Ramirez was hit by a pitch with two outs, stole second and crossed the plate on Cantu's single to center.

The Braves picked up a pair of two-out runs in the fourth to go back in front. Escobar started things with a single and came around to score on Ross' double into the left-field corner. Hudson reached on an infield single before Prado grounded a base hit through the left side for a 3-1 game.

Through a steady rain in the home half, Nolasco helped his own cause with an RBI single with the bases loaded. Hudson was able to limit the damage by striking out Chris Coghlan and retiring Gaby Sanchez on a line out to center.

The grounds crew put the tarp on the field prior to starting the fifth, and after the lengthy rain delay, Nolasco was pulled in favor of Jay Buente, who tossed a perfect frame in making his major league debut

Buente did give up an RBI single to Prado in the sixth to make it a 4-2 game. Escobar then added a run-scoring double in the seventh off Tim Wood.

Florida got a run back off Eric O'Flaherty in the home seventh on a fielder's choice groundout by Ramirez. After Cantu was hit by a pitch, Takashi Saito came in and struck out Dan Uggla and Cody Ross to end the inning.

However, the Braves tacked on three more in the eighth on Eric Hinske's double-play ground ball, an RBI infield single by Melky Cabrera and bases- loaded walk to David Ross that stretched the lead to 8-3.

In the bottom of the ninth, Billy Wagner surrendered a one-out triple to Ramirez, then fanned Cantu and Uggla to polish off the win.

Game Notes

The Marlins won 10 of the 18 matchups a year ago and are 5-3 in the previous eight contests in this series. Florida made several roster moves prior to the game. The club recalled pitchers Taylor Tankersley, Buente and veteran infielder Mike Lamb from Triple-A New Orleans, optioned pitcher Burke Badenhop to New Orleans and placed reliever Renyel Pinto on the 15-day disabled list with a left hip strain...Braves catcher Brian McCann missed the game with a strained right quadriceps muscle and is day-to-day.

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.
