Moyer, bullpen help Phils take down Mets

Baseball Betting Lines

07/04/2009 - Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Jamie Moyer pitched into the seventh inning and the Philadelphia bullpen did the rest, helping the Phillies upend the Mets 4-1 in the second of a three-game series between the NL East rivals.

Moyer (7-6), in his 600th career start, picked up win No. 253, tying him with Carl Hubbell for 10th all-time among left-handers. The veteran gave up a run on five hits and a walk in 6 1/3 innings of work.

Jimmy Rollins had a two-run double and Shane Victorino went 3-for-5 with an RBI for the Phillies, who have taken the first two games of this set on the heels of a three-game losing streak.

Fernando Nieve (3-2) lasted 5 2/3 frames for New York, giving up four runs -- three earned -- on six hits and six walks. The starter also had the Mets' only RBI in the club's seventh loss in nine games. Alex Cora recorded half of the team's six hits.

The Phillies loaded the bases with one out in the first frame and opened the game's scoring on Jayson Werth's sacrifice fly.

The hosts left the bags filled in the third but got two runs across an inning later when Rollins doubled down the right-field line to bring home Pedro Feliz and Paul Bako, who singled and walked, respectively.

Nick Evans started a rally for New York with a two-out single in the fifth. Omir Santos followed with a base hit and Nieve singled to left, plating the Mets' first tally. Chase Utley made a back-handed stop on a ball hit up the middle by Luis Castillo to end the inning with Philadelphia still ahead, 3-1.

The Mets handed the run back in the sixth. Bako worked a one-out walk after David Wright couldn't come down with his foul ball down the third-base side. Nieve was pulled after walking Rollins with two away, and Pat Misch appeared to get out of the inning unscathed by getting Victorino to pop up behind the plate.

But Santos dropped the sure out, and Victorino made the Mets pay by later singling up the middle, with Bako crossing the plate after Ryan Church's throw home was well off the mark.

Moyer and three Phillies relievers combined to maintain the three-run lead through the seventh and eighth frames, and Brad Lidge worked a perfect ninth for his 15th save of the season.

Game Notes

Despite the win, the Phillies are a disastrous 15-22 on the year at Citizens Bank Park...Moyer has won three straight starts...The Phillies lead the season series 5-4 after losing 11 of the 18 meetings a year ago...The Mets' three through six hitters combined to go hitless in 16 at-bats...Feliz had three hits for the Phillies, who left 10 on base.

Pro Football Odds : NFC SOUTH BETTING ODDS

NFL Sports Betting

NFL betting action is back! At MySportsbook, all of the pro football odds are posted for the NFC North. Check out how we see the four teams in this cloudy division stacking up this year in the chase for the playoffs! Green Bay Packers (+125) - With QB Aaron Rodgers leading the offense and DC Dom Capers working his magic on defense, the Packers are a real force to be reckoned with.

Virtually nothing changed on this offense for Green Bay from last year to this year, save for the addition of rookie OT Brian Bulaga to the bunch. Expect more huge numbers from the Pack, and a relatively favorable schedule should get them over the hump and into the playoffs once again this season. My NFL Betting Predictions: 11-5, 1st place in NFC North Minnesota Vikings (+130) - There are still too many unknowns about the Vikes this year. There is a huge difference between QB Brett Favre and either Tarvaris Jackson or Sage Rosenfels under center. Plus, is Favre comes back, is he really going to be able to keep his pick total under double digits again? Depth at running back looked like it might have been an issue with RB Chester Taylor fleeing in free agency, but drafting RB Toby Gerhart should pick up the difference. This defense is still suitable, but with a first place schedule, making the playoffs is going to be very tough regardless of whether #4 comes back or not.

Chicago Bears (+350) - The Bears are probably a bit of an overhyped team once again this year.No, we don't think it is plausible for QB Jay Cutler to have as bad of a season as he did last year, and we do think the additions of RB Chester Taylor and DE Julius Peppers are going to help immensely, but there's still something in the water in the Windy City that we aren't so sure about. Maybe Chicago finds its way to .500... but then again, maybe it doesn't. If Favre comes back, Cutler might be the worst quarterback in this division this year.

Detroit Lions (+1500) - The Lions are probably once again going to be the whipping boys for the rest of the teams in the NFC North, but they aren't just going to roll over and die once again. There is some real talent amassing on this team offensively, as the combination of QB Matt Stafford, RB Jahvid Best, WR Calvin Johnson, and TE Brandon Pettigrew should put a bunch of points on the board if the offensive line can even remotely hold up. The questions really lie on defense, where it feels like DT Ndamukong Suh is going to be trying to stop opposing teams all by himself. This year should show some marked improvement in the Motor City.

The Patriots will make NFL betting fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash.
