Guerrero's bat, Harden's arm helps Rangers down Angels
Baseball Betting Lines
08/01/2010 -
Anaheim, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Vladimir Guerrero's two-run homer in the fourth
inning was enough against his former team as the AL West-leading Rangers edged
the Angels, 2-1, in the middle installment of a three-game series.
Nelson Cruz extended his career-high hitting streak to 19 games as Texas,
despite playing without major league-leading hitter Josh Hamilton, bounced
back from a 9-7 defeat on Friday. Hamilton was out because of patella
tendinitis in his right knee.
Rich Harden (4-3), activated off the disabled list earlier in the day,
limited Los Angeles to one run on five hits over seven innings.
"They were aggressive and that was my plan, to go out there and throw
strikes," Harden said. "I was hitting my spots and I was happy with my pitch
count."
Dan Haren (0-2), making his second start with his new club, was charged with
five hits, walked two and fanned six in a complete game effort. It was his
second complete game of the season and 11th of his career, but he's winless
(0-6) over his last nine starts.
Howie Kendrick homered in the seventh inning for LA, which lost for the eighth
time in 10 contests.
David Murphy walked to start the fourth inning and Guerrero homered on the
first pitch to left-center for his 21st long ball of the year.
"The pitch was low, but it should have been more outside. It caught too much
of the plate," Haren said.
Erick Aybar struck out swinging to leave men at the corners in the bottom of
the fifth. Hideki Matsui grounded out to strand a runner in scoring position
in the LA sixth, but Kendrick homered to center with one out in the seventh.
Mike Napoli doubled with two outs and Aybar was hit by a pitch, but Maicer
Izturis grounded out to end the frame.
Frank Francisco retired the side in order in the eighth and Neftali Feliz did
the same in the ninth for his 29th save.

Chiefs' Treen Green out for Sunday's game
How long Trent Green will remain sidelined is unknown. Coach Herm Edwards said Monday he will miss a second straight start Sunday when the Chiefs host the San Francisco 49ers.
A two-time Pro Bowler, Green was going into a feet-first hook slide when he was knocked unconscious by a thunderous, head-snapping hit from Cincinnati's Robert Geathers.
Oddsmakers at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com currently have the Chiefs listed as 7-point favorites versus the 49ers.
The 49ers got beat by Philadelphia 38-24 as a 6.5-point underdog last week. The combined score went OVER the posted over/under total (42.5).

El Duque expected to throw Tuesday
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- New York Mets pitcher Orlando Hernandez, sidelined at spring training because of arthritis in his neck, is expected to resume throwing on Tuesday.
Hernandez received a cortisone shot Thursday after leaving camp and returning to New York to have his neck examined. The 41-year-old right-hander is penciled in as the team's No. 2 starter behind Tom Glavine.
El Duque's health is a major issue for the Mets, who won the NL East in 2007 and came within one victory of the World Series. Their aging and unsettled rotation is a big question mark this year.
MySportsbook.com has the Mets as -110 favorites to repeat as NL East champions odds.
Hernandez went 11-11 with a 4.66 ERA last season, including 9-7 with a 4.09 ERA in 20 starts after the Mets acquired him from Arizona in late May. But he missed the playoffs because of a torn calf muscle.
New York already is without Pedro Martinez, out until at least midseason following rotator cuff surgery. Among those competing for starting jobs are prospects Mike Pelfrey, Philip Humber and Jason Vargas, plus veterans Chan Ho Park, Jorge Sosa and Aaron Sele.
Notes: Mets manager Willie Randolph is excited about two new utility players he could have on his bench: Damion Easley and David Newhan. ''Their value is really all over the place,'' Randolph said. Easley can play anywhere in the infield and could be used as an emergency outfielder, though Randolph said he would prefer to keep the veteran in the infield. Newhan, meanwhile, can play second base, third or any outfield position for the Mets. ''I love versatility,'' Randolph said. ''I love guys that can give me options when I need them to step in.''
