Baseball Betting Lines

06/09/2007 - San Francisco, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Bobby Crosby and Mark Ellis homered and Dan Haren threw seven scoreless innings as the Oakland Athletics shut out the San Francisco Giants 6-0 in the second of a three-game set at AT&T Park.

Haren (7-2) won his seventh straight decision, yielding just five hits, while walking none and striking out six. Ron Flores and Colby Lewis pitched an inning each to finish the six-hitter.

Travis Buck, Crosby and Mark Kotsay each had three hits for the A's, who have won seven of their last eight games

Former Athletic Barry Zito (6-6) struggled allowing four runs -- three earned -- on nine hits, while walking one and striking out two in just four innings for San Francisco.

Barry Bonds went 2-for-4 with two singles and two strikeouts for the Giants, who have lost six of eight. Bonds remains stuck at 746 career home runs, nine behind Hank Aaron for first on the all-time list.

Kotsay and Jason Kendall started the second with back-to-back singles, before a one-out RBI single by Buck later gave the A's a 1-0 edge.

Crosby's two-out solo shot to left in the third put the A's up 2-0.

The A's chased Zito from the game with a three-run fifth. Eric Chavez tripled and scored when Dan Johnson reached on Ray Durhams's error at second. Back-to-back singles by Crosby and Kotsay and a sacrifice fly by Kendall put Oakland ahead 5-0.

Ellis' lead-off homer to left-center in the eighth capped the scoring.

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)
