06/28/2010 - Los Angeles, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Robinson Cano hit a go-ahead two-run homer in the 10th inning after the Yankees rallied to tie the game off Jonathan Broxton, lifting New York to an 8-6 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers in the rubber match of a three-game series.
The Yankees scored four times off Broxton in the ninth to send the game to an extra inning. Mark Teixeira hit a leadoff single off Ramon Troncoso (1-2), who got Alex Rodriguez to ground into a fielder's choice before being replaced by George Sherrill.
Cano ripped the second pitch from Sherrill, a fastball away, to left-center field for an 8-6 New York lead. Mariano Rivera (2-1), who had thrown a 1-2-3 ninth, pitched a scoreless 10th to seal the victory.
The late rallies bailed out Yankees starter Andy Pettitte, who made two throwing errors in the third inning as Los Angeles jumped out to a lead. He pitched five innings, giving up five runs (two earned), six hits and three walks.
Rodriguez hit a two-run homer, the 594th of his career, for the Yankees, who have won six of eight.
Broxton's meltdown wasted a good start by Clayton Kershaw, who allowed two runs on four hits in seven innings. He also struck out five for the Dodgers, who have lost eight of 10.
Broxton came on for the ninth inning with the Dodgers ahead, 6-2, and got the first out with a strikeout of Teixeira. However, the game quickly spiraled out of control for the LA closer.
Rodriguez singled, moved to second on defensive indifference, then scored on a Cano double. Jorge Posada's base hit pushed Cano to third, and he moved to second before Broxton walked Curtis Granderson to load the bases.
Chad Huffman, playing in place of Brett Gardner -- who left the game in the fourth inning with an apparent wrist injury after being hit by a pitch -- provided the big blow with a two-run single. The hit brought the Yankees within 6-5 and put runners on the corners with one away.
Broxton remained on the mound and got Colin Curtis to ground to first, but James Loney opted to get the out at first before throwing home. His throw was too late, as Granderson slid in safely to even the game.
Broxton managed to get out of the inning without giving up another run, but threw a career-high 48 pitches in letting the Yankees back in the game.
For much of the contest, it looked as though the Dodgers were on their way to a series victory, which would have been their first since June 15-17, when they took two of three from Cincinnati.
Los Angeles put three runs on the board in the third inning, which Reed Johnson began with a double. Kershaw then put down a sacrifice bunt, but Pettitte's throw to third, which crossed into the shadowed section of the field, went wide of Rodriguez, allowing Johnson to score.
Rafael Furcal then reached on a bunt single as Rodriguez couldn't make the throw in time, and Ronnie Belliard followed with yet another bunt. Pettitte fielded that one as well, but his throw to first was wild and Kershaw scored to make it a 2-0 game. Andre Ethier followed with a sacrifice fly to plate Furcal.
Los Angeles made it a 5-0 game in the fourth on a Furcal sacrifice fly and Belliard's homer -- his second of the season.
The Yankees got on the board in the sixth, when they had one on with two outs. Rodriguez stepped to the plate and turned on a low-and-inside fastball, sending it over the left field wall.
Furcal's RBI double off Joba Chamberlain in the eighth made it a 6-2 game.

Toronto, Canada (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - This past Friday in Los Angeles, 30 general
managers and their scouts got together for the NHL Entry Draft.
It was a head-scratching draft for those watching, and a hand-sitting affair
for many involved.
Two playoff teams from 2007 take center stage on the NFL Network Sunday night in a Week 2 NFL betting match-up when the (0-1) New England Patriots betting head south to Florida for a contest with the (1-0) Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
New England HC Bill Belichick couldn’t care less about the way his team plays in the preseason. With a chance to tie last week’s game with the Baltimore Ravens betting, He elected to go for the two-point conversion and outright victory. The conversion failed, and the Pats ended up falling to the Ravens by a 16-15 final count.
New England rolled off twelve unanswered points to give it a chance at securing the victory, but it never threatened to cover the 3.5-point spread. NFL bettors saw this one coming, as they bet the Ravens down from +6 to +3.5 as the week progressed. QB Tom Brady didn’t take part in the Patriots first preseason clash, but could see action this weekend.
His three replacements all put up embarrassing numbers. They went a combined 17 for 33, and threw three interceptions and no touchdowns. The New England defense was encouraging, as they held the Ravens to 2/12 third down conversions and surrendered just ten first downs. That ‘D’ should be bolstered with the addition of former Bucs and Denver Broncos betting safety John Lynch, who could make his Patriots debut on Sunday against his former mates.
HC Jon Gruden had to be impressed with the way his Bucs played on both sides of the ball in their dominating 17-6 victory over the Miami Dolphins in Week 1’s NFL pre-season betting action. Bucs bettors were quite happy with the effort, as they made a mockery of the fact that they were underdogs in the game.
The logjam at the quarterback position didn’t get any easier to separate for Gruden, as all four of his QBs had positive experiences in the first exhibition of 2008. The four combined to complete 28 of their 40 passes for 204 yards and a touchdown, and that was without starting QB Jeff Garcia in the lineup.
RB Michael Bennett had 19 carries and four receptions, totaling 90 yards and a touchdown. Expect to see more of Bennett, Kenneth Darby, and Earnest Graham, as they all compete for playing time with Warrick Dunn in the backfield this season. Defensively, the Bucs recorded four sacks and held the Fins offense in check all day.
First round draft pick Aqib Talib was impressive in the secondary, recording a tackle and two pass defenses in his debut. Don’t be surprised to see Talib in the starting lineup opposite Ronde Barber for the Bucs in ’08.
The betting trends suggest that NFL bettors should be backing the Bucs in this intra-conference exhibition.
These two teams hooked up last year in Tampa Bay, with the Bucs winning that game 13-10. The Buccaneers have only lost one preseason game at home dating back to the beginning of the ’05 preseason. The Patriots have had a mixed bag of results in their recent exhibitions. They have gone 2-2 ATS and SU each of the last three years.
New England currently sits as modest 1-point favorites in this preseason showdown with the ‘total’ now sitting at 34.5.
