07/17/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Minnesota Twins will try to make up some more ground on the AL Central-leading Chicago White Sox, as the teams continue a four-game set tonight at Target Field.
Last night, Joe Mauer had two hits, including a big two-run single in the eighth inning, as the Twins held on for a 7-4 victory and snapped Chicago's nine-game win streak.
J.J. Hardy went 3-for-4 with a double and an RBI for the Twins, who lost Thursday in the opener of this four-game series and trail the White Sox by 3 1/2 games in the division. Michael Cuddyer and Orlando Hudson each added two hits.
Francisco Liriano (7-7) pitched 7 2/3 effective innings for the Twins, giving up two runs on six hits and two walks, while striking out eight. It was a good rebound start from last Friday, when Liriano permitted seven runs in less than two innings against Detroit.
The White Sox rallied for two runs off Minnesota closer Jon Rauch, but Jesse Crain entered to record the final two outs and get his first save since 2006.
"Very exciting baseball game," said Twins manager Ron Gardenhire. "Liriano was super, [he] was just exactly what we needed."
Gavin Floyd (5-8) took the loss after allowing four runs in five innings. However, only one of those runs was earned as the White Sox committed four errors. Floyd, who had won his last three starts, allowed seven hits, walked three and struck out five.
Gordon Beckham went 2-for-4 with a double and an RBI for Chicago, which took its first loss since July 3.
The White Sox will turn to Mark Buehrle to get them back on track tonight. The veteran left-hander has had good success of late, going 5-1 with a 2.23 ERA over his last six outings. He last started on July 9th, when he tossed seven scoreless innings in an 8-2 triumph over Kansas City.
Buehrle has made 44 career appearances - 42 starts - against the Twins, going 24-16 with a 4.10 ERA and four complete games. In his last appearance against Minnesota on April 11th, Buehrle picked up the win after allowing four runs and eight hits over eight innings of a 5-4 result.
Opposing Buehrle and Chicago will be Carl Pavano, who has won five consecutive decisions. In his last start on July 11th, the right-hander gave up three earned runs and six hits over 7 2/3 innings of a 6-3 victory over Detroit.
In six career starts versus the White Sox, Pavano is 4-2 with a 2.81 ERA and a pair of complete games shutouts. He faced Chicago on May 12th at home and earned the 3-2 victory by holding the White Sox to just two earned runs and six hits over seven innings of work.
The Twins went 12-6 versus the White Sox last year, winning seven of nine at home between the teams, and they have won four of seven meetings so far in 2010.

El Duque expected to throw Tuesday
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- New York Mets pitcher Orlando Hernandez, sidelined at spring training because of arthritis in his neck, is expected to resume throwing on Tuesday.
Hernandez received a cortisone shot Thursday after leaving camp and returning to New York to have his neck examined. The 41-year-old right-hander is penciled in as the team's No. 2 starter behind Tom Glavine.
El Duque's health is a major issue for the Mets, who won the NL East in 2007 and came within one victory of the World Series. Their aging and unsettled rotation is a big question mark this year.
MySportsbook.com has the Mets as -110 favorites to repeat as NL East champions odds.
Hernandez went 11-11 with a 4.66 ERA last season, including 9-7 with a 4.09 ERA in 20 starts after the Mets acquired him from Arizona in late May. But he missed the playoffs because of a torn calf muscle.
New York already is without Pedro Martinez, out until at least midseason following rotator cuff surgery. Among those competing for starting jobs are prospects Mike Pelfrey, Philip Humber and Jason Vargas, plus veterans Chan Ho Park, Jorge Sosa and Aaron Sele.
Notes: Mets manager Willie Randolph is excited about two new utility players he could have on his bench: Damion Easley and David Newhan. ''Their value is really all over the place,'' Randolph said. Easley can play anywhere in the infield and could be used as an emergency outfielder, though Randolph said he would prefer to keep the veteran in the infield. Newhan, meanwhile, can play second base, third or any outfield position for the Mets. ''I love versatility,'' Randolph said. ''I love guys that can give me options when I need them to step in.''

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.
