Gonzalez's hit in 12th gives Reds win over Tribe

Baseball Betting Lines

06/10/2007 - Cincinnati, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Alex Gonzalez's run-scoring single with two outs in the bottom of the 12th inning lifted Cincinnati over Cleveland, 1-0, in a pitchers' duel at Great American Ball Park.

Pinch hitter Chad Moeller ripped a one-out double to left off Aaron Fultz (3-1) to set the table for the Reds. After Fultz intentionally walked Edwin Encarnacion, after he flirted with getting out of the inning when Josh Hamilton lined out to deep right. But, the Tribe called on Matt Miller to get Gonzalez and the veteran grounded a base hit up the middle to win the game.

The Indians, who lost two of three in the series, wasted another great performance by C.C. Sabathia. The big left-hander was spectacular tossing nine shutout innings. Sabathia surrendered three hits and walked just one while fanning six en route to the no-decision. Sabathia was vying to become the first pitcher in the majors to win his 10th game of the season.

Aaron Harang hurled seven scoreless innings for the Reds, who have won three of four games. Harang allowed just three hits and two walks while punching out 10. Marcus McBeth (1-0) earned the win with two scoreless innings of relief.

Gonzalez finished 2-for-5 with the game's only RBI.

Casey Blake was 1-for-5 for Cleveland and extended his hitting streak to 19 games. Sabathia was 2-for-3 at the plate,

Cleveland threatened in the first and had runners at the corners with two down but Harang fanned Trot Nixon to end the threat.

Neither team would make much noise from there until the Indians got into the Reds bullpen in the eighth. The Tribe loaded the bases off Mike Stanton with three singles but Ryan Garko struck out swinging to end the inning.

The Reds managed to put the possible winning run in scoring position during the ninth. Pinch hitter Juan Castro singled to lead off the frame and moved up a base on Norris Hopper's sacrifice bunt but Sabathia induced Brandon Phillips to foul out and then got Adam Dunn to ground out weakly to short.

The Indians almost broke through again in the 12th. Nixon walked, advanced on a Jhonny Peralta sac bunt and moved to third on a passed ball. But, pinch runner Jason Michaels was gunned down at the plate by Josh Hamilton after trying to score on a Franklin Gutierrez fly ball to center.

Game Notes

The Tribe shipped struggling left-hander Jeremy Sowers to Triple-A Buffalo before the game. Sowers, who won seven games as a rookie last season, has been a huge disappointment this season, going just 1-6 with a 6.93 earned run average in 12 starts. Taking Sowers' spot on the roster was Miller, who gave up the game-winning hit...Sabathia is 11-of-36 from the plate in his career.

Will Ohio State continue to run the table in College Football betting odds?
MySportsbook.com favors Buckeyes, Fighting Irish and Golden Bears in this weekend's big games.

NEW YORK, NY, Sept. 21 - My Sportsbook NCAA football fans: things are beginning to get really interesting on college football's national stage. Following last weekend's "Separation Saturday", which included five teams ranked in the top 15 dropping games, the BCS Championship picture is beginning to take shape - with Ohio State leading the charge. And, according to odds makers at MySportsbook.com, the number-one-ranked Buckeyes will continue their winning ways this weekend.

Revenge will be the name of the game in Columbus this Saturday, as Ohio State looks to even the score following last season's loss to Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions. Although Penn State are listed as 16.5 point underdogs, they are 11-10 all-time versus the Buckeyes. Paterno and the Lions, however, will have to shut down Heisman Trophy favorite Troy Smith who has thrown for 769 yards and seven touchdowns this season.

Speaking of revenge, Notre Dame will be out for some against Michigan State, following last year's 44 - 41 overtime loss to the Spartans in South Bend. The thirteenth-ranked Irish, listed as a 3-point favorite, will also be looking to avenge last Saturday's thrashing from the Michigan Wolverines. The Spartans, meanwhile, have won seven of the last nine match-ups against Notre Dame and are coming off an impressive 38-23 victory over Pittsburgh.

Out west, 22nd-ranked Arizona State will be battling for their first victory over 21st-ranked California since 2000. Although the Golden Bears are listed as 7.5-point favorites, the Sun Devils are 3-0, lead the nation in sacks with 18 and possess the Pac-10's leading passer in sophomore quarterback Rudy Carpenter.
