Baseball Betting Lines

09/02/2010 - Baltimore, MD (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - David Ortiz drove in a pair of runs and Adrian Beltre homered as Boston used an early burst of offense to down Baltimore, 6-4, in the rubber match of a three-game set from Camden Yards.

Mike Lowell finished with two hits and an RBI for the Red Sox, who took the final two games in the series after losing three in a row.

Daisuke Matsuzaka (9-4) went 5 2/3 innings for the win, allowing four runs on six hits with six strikeouts.

Matt Wieters went 3-for-4 with a pair of doubles and drove in two for the Orioles, who had won four in a row before dropping the final games in the set. Ty Wigginton and Nick Markakis also knocked in a run in defeat.

Brad Bergesen (6-10) lasted 5 1/3 innings in the setback, charged with eight hits and five runs (two earned) while walking five and fanning four.

The Red Sox put up five runs in the second inning, starting with Beltre's lead-off homer. Jed Lowrie walked and Lowell singled before Lowrie scored on a Wigginton fielding error. Ryan Kalish then doubled home Lowell and Ortiz capped the burst with a two-run single.

Matsuzaka limited the O's to two hits through five innings, but the home team chased him with four runs in the sixth. Josh Bell began with a single and Brian Roberts doubled ahead of a Markakis RBI hit. Wigginton followed with a run-scoring groundout for a 5-2 game, then Luke Scott walked. Two batters later Wieters doubled to score two, but Scott Atchison stopped the rally by striking out Nolan Reimold.

Ortiz started the seventh with a walk, moved up when Beltre was hit by a pitch, advanced to third on a flyout and scored on Lowell's fielder's choice grounder for a 6-4 contest.

Atchison and Hideki Okajima combined for a scoreless eighth but Jonathan Papelbon got into trouble in the ninth before ending up with his 35th save.

He allowed singles to Felix Pie and Wieters, then a sacrifice bunt from pinch- hitter Corey Patterson. Cesar Izturis fanned swinging, then Bell did the same on a 3-2 outside fastball to end the game.
