Hudson haunts former team as Dodgers crush D'Backs
Baseball Betting Lines
04/11/2009 -
Phoenix, AZ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Orlando Hudson backed Eric Stults' spot-
start with a home run and three runs batted in, as the Dodgers upended the
Diamondbacks, 11-2, at Chase Field.
Stults (1-0), filling in for injured Opening Day starter Hiroki Kuroda (left
oblique), scattered four hits, two walks and a run while fanning five in
5 1/3 frames for the Dodgers, who evened their record at 3-3.
Russell Martin and Andre Ethier each drove in two runs for Los Angeles.
Yusmeiro Petit was a replacement for Arizona's ace, Brandon Webb, who was
scratched because of stiffness in his shoulder. Petit (0-1) was saddled with
the loss after surrendering three runs on three hits and a pair of walks in a
five-inning start for the D'Backs, who beat LA, 9-4, in the opener of the
three-game set on Friday.
Stephen Drew and Augie Ojeda each had an RBI in defeat.
Petit retired the first 10 batters he faced, but Hudson connected on a first-
pitch fastball for a solo shot to put the Dodgers in front in the fourth. The
blast rattled Petit, who went on to walk Manny Ramirez and James Loney before
allowing a two-run double to Martin for a 3-0 deficit.
While Stults only gave up two hits through five frames, the Dodgers extended
their lead with a five-run sixth. Billy Buckner started on the hill for
Arizona and promptly loaded the bases.
Ethier followed with a two-run double, Matt Kemp plated a runner with a
sacrifice fly and Casey Blake singled in another tally. After Stults struck
out, Blake moved up to second on a passed ball and came around to score on
Rafael Furcal's single for a commanding 8-0 lead.
In the home half, Drew singled home Chris Young, who hit a one-out double, but
that was all the Diamondbacks could muster until the last frame.
Hudson doubled in a pair and scored on a Juan Pierre single to make it a 10-
run game in the eighth, and Mark Reynolds scored on Ojeda's sacrifice fly in
the home ninth to account for the final score.
Game Notes
In the rubber match on Sunday, LA will go with Randy Wolf on the mound, while
Arizona counters with Dan Haren...LA went 6-for-12 with runners in scoring
position.

MySportsbook.com Posts Heisman Trophy Odds
With 3,919 passing yards, 32 touchdowns and a mere seven interceptions last season, combined with a powerful South Bend Heisman legacy, odds makers at MySportsbook.com have given Notre Dame senior quarterback Brady Quinn the best Heisman Trophy odds at 5-2.
Quinn isn’t the only big man on campus this season. Oklahoma junior running back and 2004 Heisman runner-up Adrian Peterson, listed at 7-2, rushed for a combined 3,033 yards in his first two years as a college player and will give Quinn a run for his money.
This online sportsbook has also listed Troy Smith, Ohio State senior quarterback, as another strong favorite to win the 72nd Heisman Trophy. A 7-1 bet, Smith threw for 2,282 yards last season and also led the Buckeyes to a convincing 34-20 victory over Quinn and the Fighting Irish in last season’s Fiesta Bowl.
Current betting odds Heisman trophy are:
Brady Quinn (QB, Notre Dame)
Adrian Peterson (RB, Oklahoma)
Troy Smith (QB, Ohio State)
Michael Bush (RB, Louisville)
Steve Slaton (RB, West Virginia)
Brian Brohm (QB, Louisville)
Chris Leak (QB, Florida)

LaDainian Tomlinson Favorite to be 2007 NFL MVP
With the first NFL preseason game less than two weeks away, it is time to start thinking about football once again at MySportsbook.com. Reigning NFL MVP LaDainian Tomlinson is currently the 5-1 co-favorite to win the award again alongside Super Bowl MVP Peyton Manning.
This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone after his all out assault on the record books last season. For those suffering from amnesia or were under a rock last football season, all L.T. did last season was set the NFL record for rushing touchdowns (28), total touchdowns (31) and total points scored (186) to go along with his 1815 rushing yards and 508 receiving yards. At 6-1, Tom Brady is next in line which isn’t surprising considering all of the firepower the Pats added over the off-season. With the addition of Randy Moss, Donte Stallworth and Wes Welker; it would be quite difficult for Brady’s numbers not to improve from last years 3529 yards and 24 touchdowns. There appears to be some decent value in Drew Bees at 10-1 considering he probably would have won the award last year if it wasn’t for L.T.’s record breaking season.
There is no reason to think the Saints will come back to earth this season and playing in a weak NFC, they should have as good a shot as any to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. At 15-1, Donovan McNabb could also be worth a look. Remember, many felt he was the MVP of the first half of the season before going down with a season ending injury. Reportedly, he is in great shape and well ahead of schedule to return to form. Also, he could have some added motivation to put up big numbers this season with the Eagles using their first pick in the draft on McNabb’s future successor Kevin Kolb.
