Baseball Betting Lines

07/20/2010 - Oakland, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Adrian Beltre went 3-for-4 with a home run and Daisuke Matsuzaka threw into the seventh inning, as the Boston Red Sox cooled off the Oakland Athletics with a 2-1 victory in the opener of a three-game series.

Matsuzaka (7-3) pitched 6 2/3 innings, and the only run he gave up came on a home run by Rajai Davis. Overall, the right-hander gave up two hits, walked two and struck out six.

Daniel Bard threw 1 1/3 scoreless innings of relief, while Jonathan Papelbon pitched a 1-2-3 ninth to secure his 21st save and the win for the Red Sox, who had dropped three of four to Texas over the weekend.

Meanwhile, the Athletics brought a five-game win streak into Monday's game, their longest of the season, but had that broken as their offense posted three hits.

Ben Sheets (4-9) took the loss after allowing two runs on seven hits and two walks in 6 2/3 innings.

Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl Odds

Will he or won't he?  Now that the Dallas Cowboys have a new head coach in Wade Phillips, the big question will be: Does Terrell Owens stay with the team.

Jerry Jones continues to suggest that Terrell Owens will remain with the team.

"I've said that he's back, he's here, he's under contract," Jones said. "In the interviews I've just been through (to hire a new coach), it was very clear to me how highly he's thought of and how much of an impact he had on our offensive success."

Just to be sure though, Terrell Owens cleared out his locker and removed his name plate.

Terrell Owens was among the Cowboys most productive players this past season, catching 85 passes for 1,180 yards and a league-best 13 touchdowns.

But T.O. is due a $3 million roster bonus in June, then a $5 million salary this season. Cutting him before then would save a lot of money and headaches.

Aside from the questions surrounding Terrell Owens, the oddsmakers at MySportsbook.com have concerns over starting quarterback Tony Romo's state of mind and whether he will remain a starting quarterback.  It is also not known how players will adjust to new head coach, Wade Phillips.
