Baseball Betting Lines

07/03/2009 - Bronx, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Robinson Cano and Alex Rodriguez each homered as the New York Yankees doubled up Toronto, 4-2, in the opener of a four-game set.

Mark Teixeira added a hit and an RBI for the Yankees, who have won eight of their last nine.

A.J. Burnett (7-4), facing his former club for the second time in 2009, went seven innings for the win, scattering six hits and two runs, fanning seven with a pair of walks.

Mariano Rivera recorded the final three outs to earn his 21st save.

Vernon Wells collected two hits including a homer and Alex Rios drove in the other run for the Blue Jays, who have dropped six of eight.

Brian Tallet (5-6) lasted six innings in the loss, charged with six hits and three runs -- two earned -- with four walks and three strikeouts.

New York manufactured a pair of runs in the fifth to take the lead for good. Walks to Brett Gardner and Derek Jeter plus Johnny Damon's bunt single quickly loaded the bases, then Teixeira drew a walk for the go-ahead run. Rodriguez grounded into fielder's choice at home, then a passed ball scored Damon. Cano grounded into another fielder's choice at home, then Nick Swisher looked at a third strike to keep it 3-1.

Wells' blast with two down in the sixth cut Toronto's deficit to 3-2, but Rodriguez dumped a solo shot to right in the eighth off Jeremy Accardo to give New York an insurance run.

Phil Coke and Phil Hughes combined for a scoreless eighth and Rivera retired the side in order in the ninth to secure the victory.

Cano's leadoff homer in the second gave the Yanks an early lead, but the Jays knotted the score in the fourth as Lyle Overbay doubled and later scored on a Rios single.

The Gators have been on an absolute roll having won 15 straight by an average of 16.4 PPG.

Right behind the Gators are the 5th ranked UNC Tar Heels at 9-2. The Heels (21-3, 7-2) are absolutely loaded with top notch talent and are as deep as any team in the country.
