08/28/2010 - Anaheim, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Brad Bergesen tossed eight solid innings, helping the Baltimore Orioles beat the Angels, 3-1, in the opener of a three- game set.
Bergesen (6-9) gave up one run on four hits to win his third straight decision. The right-hander also struck out four batters and walked zero. Koji Uehara recorded his third save.
"I've been battling all year long," Bergesen said. "I am trying to put my bad starts behind me. It's a great feeling to have an outing like this."
Nick Markakis, Corey Patterson and Luke Scott each had an RBI for the Orioles, who had lost three of four coming in.
Trevor Bell (1-4) was solid in seven innings, allowing two runs on six hits to suffer the hard-luck loss. He also fanned three batters and walked one for Los Angeles, which has dropped four of five.
"I thought Trevor pitched well. He gave us a chance to win," Angels manager Mike Scioscia said.
The Orioles scored a run in the top of the first when Brian Roberts led off with a double, stole third and scored on Markakis' single to left.
The Angels responded with a run of their own in the bottom of the first. Howie Kendrick and Alberto Callaspo singled to put men on the corners with one out. After Torii Hunter popped out, Kendrick crossed the plate on a balk.
Baltimore plated a run in the sixth to take the lead back. Josh Bell singled, advanced to second on a sacrifice bunt, moved to third on Markakis' groundout, and scored on Scott's base hit.
The O's added another run in the eighth to make it a 3-1 game. Francisco Rodriguez gave up consecutive singles to Cesar Izturis and Bell before Izturis raced home when Patterson grounded into a fielder's choice.
Uehara gave up a two-out single to Callaspo in the ninth. A wild pitch allowed Callaspo to advance two bases but Hunter flied out to end the game.
Game Notes
The O's were without outfielder Adam Jones (left shoulder)...The Minnesota Twins acquired left-handed reliever Brian Fuentes from the Angels in exchange for cash or a player to be named later...The Orioles reinstated pitcher Jim Johnson from the 60-day disabled list and transferred pitcher Jason Berken to the 60-day disabled list...Bergesen improved to 3-5 in 10 road starts this season...Roberts left the game with a left hip strain.

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) Troy Smith (QB, Ohio State) Michael Bush (RB, Louisville) Steve Slaton (RB, West Virginia) Brian Brohm (QB, Louisville) Chris Leak (QB, Florida) Mike Hart (RB, Michigan) Ted Ginn (WR, Ohio State) Darius Walker (RB, Notre Dame) Drew Tate (QB, Iowa) Marshawn Lynch (RB, Cal) Kenny Irons (RB, Auburn) Chad Henne (QB, Michigan) Kyle Wright (QB, Miami) Drew Stanton (QB, Michigan State) Kenneth Darby (RB, Alabama) JaMarcus Russell (QB, LSU) Drew Weatherford (QB, Florida State) Blake Mitchell (QB, South Carolina) Reggie Ball (QB, Georgia Tech) |
