06/26/2010 - Los Angeles, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - James Loney went 2-for-4 with four RBI as the Los Angeles Dodgers clobbered the New York Yankees, 9-4, to give manager Joe Torre his first win against his former team.
The Yankees took a 2-1 decision on Friday in the opener of this three-game interleague set. It was the first time Torre had faced his former team after ending his 12-year run as skipper of the club following the 2007 season.
Rafael Furcal went 3-for-5 with an RBI and three runs scored while Manny Ramirez scored twice and drove in a run for the Dodgers, who won for just the second time in their past nine games.
Hiroki Kuroda (7-5) went 5 1/3 innings to get the win as he gave up four runs on seven hits with three walks and five strikeouts.
Mark Teixeira hit a three-run home run and Alex Rodriguez drove in the other run for the Yankees, who had won five of six coming into the contest. A.J. Burnett's (6-7) struggles continued as he was tagged for six runs on six hits with six walks and five strikeouts in three-plus innings to drop his fifth straight start.
The Yankees jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the first inning on Teixeira's 13th homer of the year, a three-run shot over the wall in right-center.
Los Angeles got two back in the bottom of the frame on an RBI ground-rule double from Ramirez followed by a sacrifice fly from Loney to make it a 3-2 game.
New York added a run in the third as Rodriguez's fielder's choice scored Derek Jeter for a 4-2 lead.
The Dodgers, though, answered with three runs in the bottom of the inning to take the lead. With the bases loaded and no outs, Loney stroked a single to right that plated two. After Casey Blake walked, Russell Martin hit into a double play that scored Ramirez for a 5-4 lead.
Los Angeles made it a 7-4 game in the fourth as Loney's RBI single was followed by a run-scoring double from Blake.
The Yanks put men on first and second with one out in the sixth, but Hong-Chih Kuo came on in relief and retired the next two batters to keep the three-run lead intact.
Kuo stayed on for the seventh inning and set the Yankees down in order while the Dodgers solidified their lead in the home half of the frame on an RBI single from Furcal, that saw him advance to third on Nick Swisher's errant throw to home, followed by Matt Kemp's RBI double for a 9-4 advantage.
Jeff Weaver was on the mound for the eighth, but was pulled with one out and runners on first and second. George Sherrill then took the mound and got pinch-hitter Chad Huffman to line out, and Jonathan Broxton followed by striking out Jeter to end the frame.
Broxton stayed on for the ninth and worked around a two-out walk to Rodriguez to seal the victory. The game ended on a beautiful diving stop by Furcal on a Robinson Cano grounder.
Game Notes
Jeter celebrated his 36th birthday Saturday...This is just the second regular- season series between these teams. The last was in 2004 when the Dodgers took two of three in LA...Andy Pettitte will take the mound for New York in the series finale on Sunday and will be opposed by Clayton Kershaw...Burnett fell to 3-3 lifetime against the Dodgers...Both teams left 10 men on base, but New York went 2-for-12 with runners in scoring position while Los Angeles went 6- for-14.

It’s time to see how the biggest NFL free agent signings will perform for their news teams. Some will work out and could be the difference that makes a difference in the win column.
We look at the best off-season signings and if they should influence your NFL betting this season. Julius Peppers – Peppers was the biggest prize available on the 2010 NFL free agent market and the Chicago Bears opened the bank to bring his talents to the south side.
Peppers is explosive, he can get around blockers and cause quarterbacks to lose their minds. We all remember the classic Peppers game last year against the Vikings where he hounded Brett Favre into his worst game of the season. Peppers joining the Bears could be the reason Favre retired for good Tuesday morning. In addition to Peppers, the Bears added Chester Taylor to back up Matt Forte, Forte didn’t have the same intensity in 2009 compared to 2008 and bringing in Taylor will challenge Forte to bring it every game or he’ll risk losing carries to Taylor.
Betting on the Bears is a good option this season because of Julius Peppers and to a lesser extent Taylor. Antonio Bryant and Terrell Owens – The Cincinnati Bengals signed two former number one wide receivers to line up with Chad Ocho Cinco. Antonio Bryant had a huge season in 2008 catching 83 passes for over 1200 yards but regressed last season. Playing for the Tampa Bay Bucs last season was a large part of the regression, everyone was bad in TB last season.
Bryant should have a bounce back season if he can win the number two spot from Terrell Owens. If Bryant wins the number 2 WR spot, it will open up a completely new set of problems for the Bengals. If Owens is forced to the bench in favor of Bryant, his attitude will create trouble for Carson Palmer and head coach Marv Lewis. If Owens is the number two receiver, it means Bryant can’t live up to his past numbers and the Bengals are still limited in the passing game. NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. 2010 football betting lines for this can be found at this top online sportsbook. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense.
NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense. They signed away the Arizona Cardinals top linebacker Karlos Danby. In the past two seasons, Danby has totaled 228 tackles, 5 sacks, 3 interceptions and 3 forced fumbles. The Dolphins are the forgotten team of the AFC East with the second longest odds to win the division but with the addition of Karlos Danby and a trade for WR Brandon Marshall makes the Miami Dolphins legitimate contenders in the AFC East and in the NFL’s Eastern Conference.
The Dolphins will make NFL wagering fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash.
