Bourn, Astros use three-run 10th to beat Padres

Baseball Betting Lines

07/02/2010 - San Diego, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Michael Bourn started a three-run 10th inning with a two-run triple, and the Astros took a 6-3 win from San Diego to kick off a four-game set from Petco Park.

Jeff Keppinger singled in Bourn to make it a three-run game and finished with three RBI overall. Jason Michaels homered and had two hits for Houston, which won a combined 17 games through the first two months before going 14-14 in June.

Chris Sampson (1-0) pitched a scoreless ninth for the win and Matt Lindstrom closed it out for his 19th save. Starter Brian Moehler went 5 2/3 innings and was charged with just a run on four hits.

Luke Gregerson (2-3) was roughed up in the extra frame to take the loss, San Diego's third in four games. David Eckstein, Chris Denorfia and Oscar Salazar recorded runs batted in, while starter Jon Garland surrendered three runs on six hits with a season-high six walks in five innings.

Gregerson recorded two quick outs in the 10th, but ran into trouble with back- to-back walks to Humberto Quintero and Oswaldo Navarro. Bourn broke the tie score by lacing a triple to the right-center gap and Keppinger added insurance with a base hit to right. Lindstrom retired the side in order to make the rally stick.

Michaels belted a leadoff homer to open the scoring in the second and Keppinger later added a two-out, two-run single with the bases loaded for a 3-0 edge.

San Diego got on the board in the fifth courtesy of a pinch-hit RBI single from Denorfia, then tied it with two in the seventh off Wilton Lopez.

Nick Hundley led off with a triple and came home on a sacrifice fly by Salazar. Tony Gwynn Jr. followed with a base hit, advanced on a balk and scored on Eckstein's single back through the middle.

The Padres couldn't capitalize on a Chase Headley two-out double in the eighth and Houston stranded a runner at second with one out in the ninth.

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.
