Brewers pound Astros to complete sweepBaseball Betting Lines06/01/2008 - Milwaukee, WI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Dave Bush threw seven stellar innings to lead the Milwaukee Brewers to a 10-1 victory over the Houston Astros to complete a three-game sweep. Russell Branyan and Ryan Braun each hit two-run homers, while Craig Counsell was 2-for-4 with a two-run double for Milwaukee, which is 5-1 thus far on its nine-game homestand. The Brewers have won six of their last seven contests. The Brewers started five bench players -- Branyan, Counsell, Mike Rivera, Joe Dillon and Gabe Kapler -- who combined to go 8-for-19 with seven RBI. After yielding a first inning home run, Bush (2-5) retired 17 of 19 including 11 straight at one point. He allowed four hits, fanned five and didn't walk a batter. Mark Loretta provided Houston's only offense with his first home run of the season. Shawn Chacon (2-1) lasted just one inning and allowed four runs on two hits. The Astros have lost five in a row on their nine-game road trip and were outscored 19-3 during the sweep at Miller Park. The Brewers responded to Loretta's homer with four runs, sparked by a bizarre play in the bottom of the first. With two outs and runners on first and second, Corey Hart hit a grounder to shortstop and beat the throw to first by Miguel Tejada. Braun raced home from second on the play as Houston first baseman Lance Berkman, thinking Hart was out, headed toward the Astros dugout. Chacon then walked Branyan to load the bases before hitting Rivera with a pitch to force in Prince Fielder. Counsell capped the rally with a first-pitch double to right-center, scoring Branyan and Hart. Chacon was replaced by Jack Cassel, who kept the Brewers close until their six-run fourth. Dillon was hit by a pitch to begin the inning and scored on a Kapler triple to center. Braun followed with his 15th homer of the season to make it 7-1. Fielder reached first on an error from Cassell and Branyan blasted a one-out homer, his third since being recalled from the minors, to give Milwaukee an eight-run lead. A one-out single by Rivera chased Cassel from the game. Counsell greeted Wesley Wright with another single before back-to-back walks by Dillon and Kapler capped Milwaukee's scoring. Julian Tavarez allowed one hit in a scoreless eighth and Mark DiFelice retired the side in order in the ninth. Game Notes This was the longest Houston had gone without getting swept to begin a season in franchise history...Berkman had one double and has 21 and 40 extra-base hits for the season...It was Braun's Bobblehead Day. His 15 homers and .297 batting average lead the team...Houston is worst in the National League with 83 home runs allowed...Milwaukee sold out the game for the ninth time this year...Attendance was 44,613, the 10th largest crowd in Brewers history.

MySportsbook.com favors Bears, Bengals, Chargers and Colts to remain perfect LAS VEGAS , Sept. 28 - Two big match-ups of undefeated teams have fans salivating at the Week Four schedule in the NFL. The Chicago Bears stifling defense looks to provide a less than hospitable welcome to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night in a battle of two 3-0 teams in the NFC conference. In the AFC, the San Diego Chargers (2-0) head to Maryland to face the surprising Baltimore Ravens (3-0) as both try to keep pace atop the conference standings. Betting Lines makers at MySportsbook.com, online sportsbook and casino, have set the Bears as 3.5 point favorites while the Chargers are a 2.5 point bet. Of the three remaining undefeated teams, only one, New Orleans, enters this week's game as an underdog. Despite an emotional and resounding win over Atlanta on Monday night, the Saints are a 7.5 point underdog against the struggling Carolina Panthers. Indianapolis looks to stay perfect when they face the New York Jets as a 9 point road favorite while the Cincinnati Bengals are a 6 point favorite at home to the New England Patriots. Six teams enter the week still looking for their first win, with a seventh, Tampa Bay, on a bye week. The prospect of dropping another game would not bode well for a potential playoff run. Since 1990, just three teams -- the 1992 Chargers, 1995 Detroit Lions and 1998 Buffalo Bills -- have overcome losing their first three games of the season to earn a postseason berth. And only the Chargers managed to accomplish the feat after starting 0-4. To visit this online sportsbook got to MySportsbook.com for all your NFL football betting needs.
