Schierholtz helps San Fran down D'Backs in extrasBaseball Betting Lines09/06/2010 - Phoenix, AZ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Nate Schierholtz ended a pitchers' duel with a two-run triple in the 11th inning, leading the surging Giants to a 2-0 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks to start a three-game series. Aubrey Huff and Edgar Renteria each finished with a pair of hits for the Giants, who climbed to within a half-game of the struggling Padres in the NL West and to within a game of the Phillies in the wild card race. San Francisco has won five of six overall. Madison Bumgarner threw a gem, shutting out the D'Backs for 7 1/3 innings. He allowed five hits and a walk while fanning seven. Santiago Casilla (6-2) earned the win, and Brian Wilson tied a career-high with his 41st save. Ian Kennedy's eight shutout innings went for naught, as the Diamondbacks lost their third straight. Kennedy, who allowed just two hits and two walks while striking out six, has a 2.12 ERA in his last four starts. Aaron Heilman (5-7) took the loss. The Giants used a two-out rally off Heilman to score the game's only runs. The first two batters of the 11th were quickly retired, but Huff and Buster Posey both singled in front of the right fielder, who was playing deep to prevent an extra-base hit. Schierholtz followed with a drive into the right-center field gap for a two-run triple. Wilson pitched around a leadoff walk in the home half to lock down the victory. Neither team put a runner on third until the Diamondbacks threatened in the eighth. Kennedy drove a Bumgarner pitch over the drawn-in outfield for a leadoff double and moved to third on Stephen Drew's deep fly ball. Sergio Romo relieved Bumgarner and walked pinch-hitter Ryan Church on four pitches, leading the Giants to put in Javier Lopez. Lopez got out of the jam, striking out Kelly Johnson before inducing a fielder's choice groundout from Chris Young. The Giants answered by putting together a scoring threat in the top of the ninth off Juan Gutierrez. Andres Torres hit a one-out single and attempted to steal second. On the pitch, Freddy Sanchez hit a soft ground ball to where Drew is normally stationed at shortstop. The ball dribbled into shallow left field, allowing Torres to reach third. Gutierrez, though, induced a harmless pop up from Huff before Posey lofted a fly ball to shallow right-center. Gerardo Parra charged in and made a spectacular sliding catch to prevent a run from scoring and end the inning. Game Notes Bumgarner has been excellent on the road and has a 5-2 record with a 2.25 ERA in eight starts...The Giants lead the season series, 9-4...San Francisco is 52-17 when scoring first...Wilson tied Gary Lavelle for third place on the franchise's all-time saves list with 127.

Football BettingNFL Football Betting OnlineThe San Francisco 49ers (5-11 SU, 5-10-1 ATS in 2007; 1-1 SU & ATS in pre-season) found some offensive life last week, and they will try to build some momentum on Thursday night as they travel to the Windy City to take on the Chicago Bears (7-9 SU & ATS in 2007; 0-2 SU, 0-1-1 ATS in pre-season) in an NFL matchup that is set to get underway at 8 PM ET at Soldier Field (natural turf) in Chicago. Thursday, August 21 NFL betting odds: CHICAGO -3 (-120), Total 37 NOTABLE STAT: San Francisco was last in points, last in total offense in 2007 In the BetUS NFL pre-season football betting odds, the Bears are listed as a three-point favorite (laying -120), with the total posted at 37 points. Here are some NFL football betting trends as they relate to this matchup (reflecting numbers going into the 2008 season): * SF has lost 11 of its last 14 games SU Well, I guess we should congratulate the Bears on making their quarterback choice for the season's opening game, as they have designated Kyle Orton the starter against Indianapolis. The Bears obviously have lost patience with Rex Grossman, and what they do with him at this point is anybody's guess. But suffice it to say that there isn't a quarterback competition anymore, at least in training camp. Meanwhile, the quarterback competition may also be settled in San Francisco, where the Niners bounced back from a lackluster 18-6 loss to the Raiders, in which they turned the ball over four times, to execute a 34-6 rout of the Packers last Saturday. However, coach Mike Nolan has stopped short of saying that, insisting that the job is still open. But J.T. O'Sullivan, the longshot of the trio of Niner signal-callers who opened camp, will start his third straight pre-season game here. Against Green Bay, O'Sullivan was only 8-for-17, and was intercepted, but he also threw for 9.1 yards an attempt, which included a 59-yard TD pass to Josh Morgan. The others struggled. Some offensive cohesion is badly needed, in light of the Niners' dismal 2007 campaign, in which they were dead last in the NFL in scoring, with just 13.7 points a game. And O'Sullivan is the guy who is most familiar with offensive coordinator Mike Martz's exacting system, because he learned it last year in Detroit. O'Sullivan will go at least the entire first half and may even last longer. He'll be relieved by Alex Smith, with Shawn Hill doing the mop-up work. Three receivers who were out last week - Bryant Johnson, Ashley Lelie and Arnaz Battle - will miss this game too. That may hurt a little here, especially since the Bears will be using a lot of their defensive starters. And it's the defense that has been keeping the Bears in games thus far. In fact, the defense and special teams were responsible for the first 19 points Chicago scored against Seattle last time out, as the offense really struggled with Grossman at the controls. But maybe the first-team offense has a chance to settle a little bit as it works more with Orton at the helm. Certainly we have concerns about the Bears' offensive line, but we like the scenario for them here, especially if O'Sullivan doesn't make some bis plays. The Niners may have nowhere else to turn right now, and they have lost seven straight road games in the pre-season. Let's take Chicago, the three-point favorite in the NFL football betting odds.
