Fielder, Brewers edge Giants
Baseball Betting Lines
07/19/2008 -
San Francisco, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Prince Fielder put the Brewers ahead with
a solo home run in the seventh and added an insurance RBI single in the ninth,
as Milwaukee downed San Francisco 8-5, in the middle contest of a three-game
series at AT&T Park.
Rickie Weeks knocked in two runs while Corey Hart doubled twice with two runs
scored for Milwaukee, which has won three straight. Ryan Braun added three
hits and scored a run. Carlos Villanueva (4-5) picked up the win with 1 1/3
perfect frames.
Jose Castillo, Omar Vizquel and Eugenio Velez had two hits and an RBI each for
San Francisco, which has now lost eight of its last nine overall.
Osiris Matos (0-2) started the seventh for San Francisco and Fielder didn't
allow the game to be tied for long, leading off with a home run over the fence
in right, his 20th of the season. Hart then delivered a double to left, stole
third and scored on a Mike Cameron ground out.
Milwaukee added an insurance run in the ninth off Alex Hinshaw. Braun tripled
to right leading off and scored on a Fielder line single to center. Salomon
Torres retired the Giants in order in the bottom half to earn his 16th save of
the season.
Brewers starter Ben Sheets went just five innings having surrendered four runs
- two earned - on nine hits and a walk. Sheets struck out three but couldn't
immediately capitalize on his strong first half that earned him the right to
start for the National League at Tuesday's All-Star Game.
Giants starter Jonathan Sanchez pitched well but ran into trouble and was
pulled with one out in the sixth, allowing four runs on seven hits and two
walks while fanning eight. The right-hander extended a personal winless streak
to three consecutive starts.
The Brew Crew continued to receive a boost at the plate from their pitching
staff with a two-out RBI double from Sheets in the second. Jason Kendall
doubled to center prior to Sheets' at-bat.
The Giants used a four-run fourth to take the lead. Aaron Rowand doubled to
left leading off and scored on a Castillo single through the right side.
Castillo stole second and scampered home on a Vizquel poke-single to
right. Sanchez moved Vizquel to second with a sacrifice and an error by
shortstop J.J. Hardy allowed him to score. Velez capped the scoring with a
two-out RBI double to left.
Milwaukee loaded the bases in the sixth, chasing Sanchez from the mound.
Keiichi Yabu entered and promptly uncorked a wild pitch scoring one and an
errant throw by catcher Bengie Molina let another run cross the plate. Kendall
was then hit by a pitch and Weeks laced a two-run double to center two batters
later giving the Brewers a 5-4 advantage.
San Francisco came back to load the bases off Mitch Stetter in the home half.
Randy Winn plated a run with a force out at second but Villanueva took the
hill and recorded the third out, keeping the game tied at five.

five straight in San Francisco before Friday's win...Sunday's series finale
will feature Milwaukee's Manny Parra (8-2) and San Francisco's Tim Lincecum
(11-2)...Vizquel left in the sixth inning after fouling a ball off his left
foot. He was able to finish his at-bat against Mitch Stetter with a walk but
was replaced by pinch-runner Ivan Ochoa who eventually scored. Ochoa remained
in the game at shortstop.

After all the trouble that’s ensued since Braylon Edwards allegedly punched one of LeBron James’ homeboys in the face at a club, the Cleveland Browns have sent away their last remaining player of worth to the New York Jets. This is a great move for Dirty Sanchez and all, but it’s even better for the Knicks. Now Donnie Walsh can say, “You get to haunt Braylon Edwards with your posse if you sign here!” next summer.
Putting that aside for a moment, the move is a clear indication that the new-look Jets are gunning for the Super Bowl this year. I don’t think that New York thought that Dirty Sanchez was going to be such a rock star. With a 75.2 passer rating that was killed against the Jets, Sanchez is doing an admirable job of managing games and putting the Jets in a position to win. The defense has been the major story in New York thus far, but the acquisition of Braylon Edwards makes this offense loaded with talent that can dent any defense…as long as Dirty Sanchez continues his meteoric rise.
Thus far, Edwards has been a non-factor in the NFL piling up just 139 receiving yards on 10 catches. He has yet to find the endzone, and with the Browns mired in the most unsexy quarterback controversy of all time (Anderson vs. Quinn...yawn), there going nowhere fast. Edwards is two seasons removed from a career year which saw him catch 80 passes for 1,289 yards and 16 touchdowns when the Browns were the spread killing monsters of 2007. In 2008, injuries slowed the receiver down to just 873 yards and three touchdowns though he played in all 16 games.
So that being said, we really don’t know if Braylon Edwards is just a flash in the pan, or a legit threat. At 6-foot-3 and 215 pounds, he is a prototypical receiver. But he’s also shown a strange, and unwarranted, talent for dropping passes. Lining up opposite Jericho Cotchery, a speed demon with 23 catches, 356 yards and a single touchdown, may give Braylon the open looks he needs. A change of scenery may also rejuvenate the star receiver.
In return, the Browns will receive Chansi Stuckey, online football betting a special teams player you’ve never heard of and a pair of draft picks. That’s a tall order for a guy whose only real value right now is in his name, and it shows no promise to the Browns that they can rebuild around those acquisitions. Braylon was the only reason to hope for the Browns to go 3-14 SU this year. Without him, they don’t have a single guy on offense that can scare any team.
For the Jets, it’s a response to the pounding that they took at the hand of the Saints. Thomas Jones and Leon Washington have averaged around 4.0 yards per carry each on the ground, but striking a fair balance between the passing and rushing attacks in New York has been a struggle. You have to believe that the trio of Dustin Keller, Jericho Cotchery and Braylon Edwards will give Sanchez the weapons he needs to unleash through the air. Theoretically, that would open up holes for the rushing game. But the proposed public option health care plan works in theory too. We need to see the proof in the pudding before we start loading up mega bucks on the New York Jets to take the AFC.
The one wrinkle in this whole thing is that Braylon could very well be suspended by the league for disciplinary action due to his “brawl” with LeBron’s friend. If that’s the case, the Jets may have to bench him for a few games leaving them with a somewhat depleted receiving corps for a few games. Also, this is a guy who gets in fights with people at clubs. New York may not be the best place for him. Just sayin’.
The Jets have a long week before they meet the Miami Dolphins on Monday Night Football Betting in a virtual pick ‘em game. Braylon’s excess baggage may be a distraction, and his curiously low production may be what we should be expecting of him overall, but for the Jets, taking a chance to strike gold is well worth it. At the end of the year, they can simply just blame it on their rookie quarterback.
