06/06/2010 - Los Angeles, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Troy Glaus' two-run homer and a two-run double by Brian McCann keyed a seven-run seventh inning, as the Braves came away with a 9-3 win over the Dodgers in the third of four games from Chavez Ravine.
Omar Infante had a two-run base hit and Brooks Conrad a pinch-hit single to open the scoring for Atlanta, which batted around in the frame. McCann added a two-RBI hit in the eighth to finish with four driven in.
Tommy Hanson (6-3) won his third straight start, allowing a pair of runs on eight hits with six strikeouts and two walks over six innings for the Braves, who had a nine-game winning streak halted via a 5-4 verdict on Friday.
Chad Billingsley (6-3) pitched into the seventh but was pulled after allowing the first three batters to reach base. Each came around to score with the right-hander ending with a line of three runs, seven hits, two walks and five strikeouts. He had won his previous four decisions and helped himself early on with a run-scoring double.
Los Angeles had won five of its last six coming in.
Three consecutive singles to start the fateful seventh got Atlanta its first run on Conrad's poke into center. That brought out Ramon Troncoso from the bullpen, but the carnage continued.
A sacrifice bunt by Martin Prado moved up the runners and Infante brought in both with a base hit to left. Jason Heyward walked and was quickly crossing the plate along with Infante courtesy of a double off the base of the left- field wall from McCann.
Manny Ramirez took a curious line toward the ball and watched it one-hop out of his reach as McCann took third on the eventual throw in. Ronald Belisario took over pitching duties and promptly served up Glaus' two-run homer to center field for a sudden 7-2 difference.
McCann made it a seven-run game with his two-out single an inning later, and LA went in order facing Peter Moylan in the bottom half. Craig Kimbrel worked the ninth and was touched for a Rafael Furcal infield hit that scored a run before finishing out the frame.
The Dodgers manufactured single runs in the second and third innings to secure an early advantage. After a Jamey Carroll double-play ball in the second, Blake DeWitt singled and Billingsley lifted a double to center field to forge a 1-0 edge.
Matt Kemp tripled to deep center just over the outstretched glove of Nate McLouth leading off the third and scored to make it a two-run affair when Andre Ethier hit a sacrifice fly.
Game Notes
Furcal had three hits, while DeWitt had two and scored two of the three Dodger runs. Ethier stole his first base of the season...Glaus' home run was his 11th on the year. He has 44 RBI in 56 games this season...Prado collected a pair of hits to extend his hitting streak to 10 games...The Dodgers had a 24-1 record when leading after six innings entering play Saturday...Hanson has won five of his last six decisions overall.

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup
September 19, – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com. The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current Ryder Cup betting odds favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans.
Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to name a few. Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR. They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich.
The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer. Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.
