Cueto, Reds blank D'Backs
Baseball Betting Lines
07/01/2009 -
Cincinnati, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Johnny Cueto tossed six shutout innings and
the Reds bullpen finished the two-hitter from there, as Cincinnati blanked
Arizona, 1-0, in the second of three games with the Diamondbacks.
Cueto (8-4) surrendered one hit and struck out eight, but walked four.
However, he kept the Diamondbacks off the scoreboard, and Arthur Rhodes, David
Weathers and Francisco Cordero each tossed a scoreless inning of relief as the
Reds notched their seventh shutout this season.
Rhodes allowed the only other hit and walked two, while Cordero notched his
19th save this season.
Joey Votto went 2-for-4 and drove in the game's lone run for Cincinnati, which
went 2-for-11 with runners in scoring position, but held on to win for the
third time in its last four games.
Jon Garland (4-8) allowed the one run on six hits in six innings of work for
the Diamondbacks, and was dealt the loss. He has not won a start since May 19,
going 0-6 in eight outings since then.
Felipe Lopez and Gerardo Parra had a hit each for Arizona, which won the
opener of this series on Tuesday, but lost for the ninth time in its last 11
games. The Diamondbacks have not won back-to-back games since defeating Kansas
City on June 17 and 18.
The Reds pushed a run across in the sixth, which Chris Dickerson opened with a
single. Dickerson went to second on Jerry Hairston Jr.'s groundout, then
scored when Votto's blooper fell for a single.
The Diamondbacks had a tremendous chance to score in the next inning, as Parra
reached base on a bunt single to lead off. Parra moved to second on Rhodes'
wild pitch, and Chris Young followed with a walk.
The runners moved into scoring position on Miguel Montero's sacrifice, but
Rhodes struck out pinch-hitter Ryan Roberts. After Rhodes walked pinch-hitter
Tony Clark, he got Lopez to fly out to end the threat.
Cincinnati had a scoring opportunity in the bottom of the seventh, loading the
bases with one out. But Clay Zavada, who began the frame in place of Cueto,
fanned Dickerson for the second out before Juan Gutierrez entered and ended
the inning on a Hairston pop-out.
Weathers worked a 1-2-3 eighth and Cordero tossed a perfect ninth to secure
the 1-0 victory.

MySportsbook.com Posts Heisman Trophy Odds
With 3,919 passing yards, 32 touchdowns and a mere seven interceptions last season, combined with a powerful South Bend Heisman legacy, odds makers at MySportsbook.com have given Notre Dame senior quarterback Brady Quinn the best Heisman Trophy odds at 5-2.
Quinn isn’t the only big man on campus this season. Oklahoma junior running back and 2004 Heisman runner-up Adrian Peterson, listed at 7-2, rushed for a combined 3,033 yards in his first two years as a college player and will give Quinn a run for his money.
This online sportsbook has also listed Troy Smith, Ohio State senior quarterback, as another strong favorite to win the 72nd Heisman Trophy. A 7-1 bet, Smith threw for 2,282 yards last season and also led the Buckeyes to a convincing 34-20 victory over Quinn and the Fighting Irish in last season’s Fiesta Bowl.
Current betting odds Heisman trophy are:
Brady Quinn (QB, Notre Dame)
Adrian Peterson (RB, Oklahoma)
