Jones homers twice as Pirates down RockiesBaseball Betting Lines07/29/2010 - Denver, CO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Garrett Jones homered twice as part of a four- hit night and drove in three runs as the Pirates overcame an early injury to pitcher Ross Ohlendorf to beat the Colorado Rockies, 6-2, at Coors Field. Neil Walker added a two-run single as Pittsburgh posted back-to-back road wins for the first time since May 14-15 against the Cubs. Ohlendorf was struck in the head by a line drive off the bat of Troy Tulowitzki in the first inning. With a runner at third and two outs, Tulowitzki lined a ball off the side of Ohlendorf's head and the ball bounced into right field. Carlos Gonzalez scored on the play for a 1-0 Colorado lead. Ohlendorf went to a local hospital, but a CT scan came up negative and he was diagnosed with a contusion and abrasion. Sean Gallagher (1-0) fanned four batters over three innings to get the win. Aaron Cook (4-7) allowed six hits and five runs over 2 1/3 innings to drop his second straight start. Gonazlez homered for the Rockies, who have lost eight in a row, their longest skid since dropping the same amount, June 22-30, 2008. Jones broke a 2-2 tie in the sixth inning Tuesday night with a go-ahead run- scoring double, on the way to a 4-2 victory. He led off the second Wednesday night with a homer to right field, and the Pirates scored four times in the third. Gallagher walked with one out and Andrew McCutchen reached safely on a single. Jose Tabata legged out an infield hit and Walker followed with a two- run hit to center. Jones and Pedro Alvarez each added RBI singles, signaling the end for Cook as he was replaced by Manuel Corpas. Gonzalez homered to right off the facade of the upper deck leading off the bottom of the sixth against Javier Lopez, getting the Rockies within 5-2, but Jones sent a Randy Flores offering over the wall in right to begin the eighth. Game Notes The Pirates tied a season-high by homering in a fourth straight game...Seth Smith had three hits for the Rockies, who left nine men on base...Pittsburgh has won just three of the last 12 games in Denver.

MySportsbook.com: NBA Championship Odds With the playoffs about two months away, the top two teams in the Western Conference are the clear cut leaders to win the NBA Championship. The Dallas Mavericks have the best record in the NBA (44-9) and have been absolutely scorching since the second week of the season. What makes the Mavs’ record more impressive is the fact that they dropped their first four games of the season. Currently they have won 17 out of their last 18 and are MySportsbook.com’s favorite (2-1) to win it all. Right behind the Mavs are the Pacific leading Phoenix Suns (39-13). Last season, the Suns lost in the Conference Finals to non-other then the Mavericks four games to two. Of course the Suns were without center Amare Stoudemire who has is averaging 19.9 PPG and 9.5 RPG since coming back from his knee injury. Unlike the Mavs, the Suns have struggled a bit lately having lost their last three and four out of their last seven. Of course the main reason for their three straight loses is due to the absence of two time MVP Steve Nash, who is out with a shoulder injury. Heads-up, the Mavs have beaten the Suns in both of their meetings this season. In the Eastern Conference, the Pistons (32-19) are the favorites to win it all at 6-1. The addition of Chris Webber seems to have been a good move for the Pistons. Since coming over from the 76ers, Webber has averaged 13.1 PPG and 7.3 RPG and the Pistons are 11-4. Even though the defending champion Heat are currently on the playoff making cusp, they are the Eastern Conference team that is getting the most action to win it all (9-1). The fact that Shaquille O’Neal is back in the starting lineup after missing 39 games probably has something to do with this. No doubt, Shaq makes a difference when in the lineup as their winning six out of their last seven would indicate.

Kurt Warner to start, Matt Leinart to watch Despite the debate that's swirling , Kurt Warner will remain the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals, coach Dennis Green said today. The Arizona Cardinals are the +7 point underdog at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com for this Sunday's game. Green's comment came in a statement released by the team following an ESPN report that Green decided that rookie Matt Leinart would replace Warner as starter for Sunday's game at Atlanta. "Generally talking about the starting lineup is not something we do," Green told the AP. "However, given the speculation that was out there we want to make it clear. We're disappointed after last week, but we still expect to be a playoff football team and we fully expect Kurt Warner to be the quarterback that leads us. That has not changed."
