Bergesen, Orioles silence Angels

Baseball Betting Lines

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.

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship.  Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92.  After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points.  Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1.  Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years.  With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed.  UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern.  Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier.  OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak.  Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four.  It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta.  But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
