Baseball Betting Lines

07/30/2010 - Chicago, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Ramon Castro homered twice and Juan Pierre stroked a two-run double, as the Chicago White Sox beat Seattle, 9-5, to sweep a four-game series and extend their home winning streak to 11 games.

Paul Konerko and Carlos Quentin clubbed back-to-back home runs in the seventh inning for the White Sox, who won for the 18th time in their last 19 games at U.S. Cellular Field.

Ichiro Suzuki doubled three times and scored three runs for Seattle, which finished 1-9 against Chicago this season.

Ichiro doubled to begin the game and scored on Casey Kotchman's one-out double. Kotchman drove in Ichiro again, this time on a sacrifice fly in the third inning.

The White Sox loaded the bases with no outs against David Pauley (0-3) in the bottom of the third on two singles and a walk. Pierre then ripped a double down the left-field line to tie the game. Omar Vizquel followed with a run- scoring single and Chicago led 4-2 after Alex Rios grounded into a double play.

In the fourth, Castro homered to left field for a 5-2 advantage.

The Mariners got a run back in the sixth on a Michael Saunders RBI single, but Castro went deep again in the home half and Vizquel contributed a run-scoring single later in the inning to make it 7-3.

J.J. Putz, who had made a club-record 27 consecutive scoreless appearances, replaced Chicago starter Freddy Garcia (10-4) to begin the seventh and gave up an RBI double to Ichiro, who scored on a wild pitch to trim the deficit to 7-5.

Konerko and Quentin restored the four-run cushion by going back-to-back in the bottom of the inning. Konerko homered in all four games of this series.

Terrell Owens could return for Cowboys next game
A bye week will allow Terrell Owens broken hand to recover just in time for the next game the Dallas Cowboys are slated to play, according to reports. MySportsbook.com, an football sportsbook, has posted football betting lines on TO playing.

Owens broke the bone leading to his right ring finger Sunday night and had a plate surgically attached to it Monday. Although Owens' hand was swollen and aching Wednesday, Dallas Cowboys coach Bill Parcells said he's optimistic the receiver will be back at work next week and catching passes a week from Sunday against the Tennessee Titans.

MySportsbook.com online sportsbook listed Terrell Owens with odds of 7-2 (or $7 paid out for every $2 bet) to return back for the game against Tennessee.

"I certainly wouldn't rule it out now," Parcells said, referring to Terrell Owens immediate return. "Maybe five days from now I might, but I wouldn't rule it out now. ... I know we're looking to try to get him moving around pretty good in the next day or so. So we'll see where we are."

Owens did not speak with reporters Wednesday, but said Sunday he'd be out two to four weeks. A return against the Titans would be 13 days after the surgery. The Cowboys were listed as an early -7 1/2 favorite vs. the Tennessee Titans for Week 4 at MySportsbook.com
