06/02/2008 - St. Louis, MO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Adam Wainwright was well on his way to another dominant start, but Pittsburgh scored four runs in the seventh and added the game-winning tally on Jason Bay's RBI single in the eighth to post a 5-4 victory over St. Louis in the finale of a four-game series.
Wainwright's (5-3) demise was the story of a game that went smoothly for six frames.
Then came the seventh inning, where Pirates manager John Russell's pinch- hitting choice changed the game's dynamic. Bay's one-out double put an abrupt end to Wainwright's groove, and Xavier Nady and Jose Bautista each walked -- the only two surrendered by Wainwright over eight innings.
Russell called on veteran Jason Michaels to hit for Raul Chavez, a catcher batting just .217 on the season and 0-for-2 in Monday's contest. Michaels wasted little time by smoking the first pitch into the left-center field bullpen for his first career grand slam and Pittsburgh's first pinch-hit grand slam since 2003.
That instantly tied the game, and in the eighth, Bay found real estate in right field for a single, scoring Nate McLouth with the go-ahead run after McLouth singled and advanced to second on a sacrifice bunt earlier in the frame.
Matt Capps collected his 11th save of the season with a scoreless ninth, while Franquelis Osoria (3-1) picked up the victory with 1 2/3 scoreless frames. Wainwright, meanwhile, went eight innings and gave up five runs on seven hits to take the loss.
Pirates starter Tom Gorzelanny gave up four runs on seven hits with three walks and two strikeouts over six frames, and was shaky early.
St. Louis built a 4-0 lead on the bats of Albert Pujols and Ryan Ludwick. Pujols' double plated Joe Mather and Ludwick's single scored Pujols in the first.
In the third, the duo was at it again. Pujols' slow chopper plated Aaron Miles and Ludwick lofted a sacrifice fly to left, scoring Mather with the team's fourth run.
Game Notes
Pujols has driven in 39 runs this season...Wainwright had surrendered two runs over his last two-plus starts -- spanning 21 2/3 innings...St. Louis has won three of five meetings this season...The Cardinals finished 4-3 on their seven-game homestand.

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.
The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.
MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.
Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship. Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92. After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points. Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1. Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years. With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed. UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern. Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier. OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak. Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four. It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta. But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
