Angels shoot for another win over first-place Rangers
Baseball Betting Lines
07/31/2010 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim continue their quest to
gain ground on the Texas Rangers as the top two teams in the AL West continue
their three-game weekend series.
Newly-acquired Dan Haren will make his second start for Los Angeles this
evening. The former Arizona hurler's first start ended early on Monday, as
Haren was struck by a line drive on his right pitching forearm. He lasted 4
2/3 innings and allowed two earned runs on seven hits while striking out eight
Red Sox. Haren is a combined 7-9 this season with a 4.57 ERA, numbers less
impressive than we are accustomed to seeing from the standout hurler.
In his career against Texas, Haren is 3-5 with a 4.29 ERA in 10 games.
Rich Harden returns from a stint on the disabled list and will take the ball
for Texas today. The hard-throwing righty has been on the DL since June 12
with a lower back injury, and he hopes to improve his 3-3 record and 5.68 ERA.
Harden pitched six strong innings on Monday in his most recent rehab
assignment.
Harden has yet to face the Angels this season and is 5-3 lifetime against the
club with a 3.96 ERA.
Juan Rivera had two hits yesterday, including a three-run homer, and the
Angels overcame an early five-run deficit to beat the rival Rangers, 9-7.
Rivera drove in four runs total for the Angels, who still trail the AL West-
leading Rangers by eight games after snapping a four-game losing streak. Erick
Aybar also homered and drove in two runs, while Alberto Callaspo went 2-for-4
with a pair of runs scored.
Ervin Santana (10-7) was the beneficiary of the support, getting the win
despite allowing seven runs -- four earned -- on 10 hits and two walks in six
innings. Brian Fuentes notched his 19th save.
"I felt like I had no command and no concentration, and I still came away with
a win," Santana said. "Credit my teammates, offensively and defensively.
That's a tough lineup, and I just tried to focus and get guys out."
Nelson Cruz belted a solo homer, while Vladimir Guerrero and David Murphy each
drove in a pair of runs for the Rangers, who have dropped two of three. Elvis
Andrus went 4-for-5 with an RBI and a pair of runs scored in defeat.
Tommy Hunter (8-1) dropped his first decision of the season, giving up eight
runs, eight hits and a walk in three-plus frames.
"Tommy wasn't able to hit his spots," said Rangers manager Ron Washington. "He
had trouble with his command. I wasn't expecting three innings out of him. We
played well enough to win that game, but we couldn't stop them."
Infielder Jorge Cantu, who was acquired by Texas in a trade with Florida on
Thursday, did not start. He did pinch-hit with two outs in the ninth and flied
out.
Cruz extended his hit streak to 18 games.
Josh Hamilton left late in the game due to tendinitis in his right knee, an
ailment that has bothered him all season. His status for tonight's game is
unknown.
Texas has prevailed in six of the 10 previous meetings between these AL West
rivals, but is just 2-6 in its last seven visits to Angel Stadium.

Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament odds
As of February 9, MySportsbook.com has released its coveted 2007 Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament betting odds. “March Madness betting ” only a month away, the top ranked Florida Gators are favorite at 7-2 to win it all. The defending champs have not disappointed at all this season and currently have a 22-2 record and are undefeated (9-0) in SEC play. The Gators’ thrive off of their extremely balanced, experienced and versatile attack. All five starters started in last seasons National Championship game. What is most impressive with this group is their balance; the five starters all average between 10.7 and 13.6 PPG. The Gators have been on an absolute roll having won 15 straight by an average of 16.4 PPG.
Right behind the Gators are the 5th ranked UNC Tar Heels at 9-2. The Heels (21-3, 7-2) are absolutely loaded with top notch talent and are as deep as any team in the country. A concern for the Tar Heels might be inexperience. Of their top four scorers/ minute earners, three are freshmen and the other is a sophomore. The rest of the regular season, the Tar Heels play only one team that is currently ranked (Duke). Their remaining opponents do combine for an impressive 107-58 record though.
Other teams that the MySportsbook.com members seem to believe will win it all include the west coasts’ top team #2 UCLA (6-1), #3 OSU behind man-child Greg Oden (8-1), and #4 Wisconsin (10-1) behind their defense which has given up 70+ points only three times all season.
