Reds subdue Brewers with 19-hit barrage

Baseball Betting Lines

07/28/2010 - Milwaukee, WI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Scott Rolen was one of three Cincinnati players with four hits and drove in three runs as the Reds walloped the Brewers, 12-4, snapping Milwaukee's five-game winning streak.

Brandon Phillips went 4-for-6 with two RBI and two runs scored out of the lead-off spot, while Joey Votto also had four hits, drove in one and scored three times. Rolen singled four times and Ramon Hernandez knocked in three runs for Cincinnati, which bounced back from a 3-2 loss on Monday to beat the Brewers for the seventh time in the last eight tries.

Orlando Cabrera had three hits, an RBI and scored twice for the Reds, who moved into a virtual tie with St. Louis for first place in the NL Central.

While the Reds tied a season-high with 19 hits, they couldn't get Edinson Volquez a victory because the right-hander was lifted after 3 2/3 innings. In his third start of the year, Volquez allowed six hits and four runs and threw 95 pitches, 54 for strikes.

Logan Ondrusek (2-0) lasted 2 1/3 innings to record the victory.

Yovani Gallardo (9-5) clubbed a two-run homer, but was blasted on the mound for a season-high 10 hits along with six runs -- five earned -- over 2 2/3 frames. Rickie Weeks homered for a third straight game and for the 22nd time this year.

Brewers manager Ken Macha didn't want to waste a reliever in the ninth inning, so infielder Joe Inglett pitched the final frame and retired the side in order.

Rolen, in just his second game back recovering from a right hamstring injury, snapped an 0-for-16 slump as part of a two-run first inning. Phillips doubled to start the game, but was thrown out trying to stretch the hit into a triple. Cabrera doubled and scored on Votto's base hit to right field. After a base hit by Rolen and flyout from Jonny Gomes, Votto scored on a wild pitch when Jay Bruce swung at a pitch in the dirt.

Weeks scored on a Ryan Braun groundout in the bottom of the first, but the Reds struck for three more in the second - an RBI double from Hernandez and run-scoring hits from Phillips and Rolen.

Gallardo homered following a Jonathan Lucroy single in the bottom of the second, but the Brewers committed two errors in the third, leading to Phillips' RBI single. Bruce walked with the bases full in the fourth for a 7-3 cushion.

Weeks homered to left in the fourth, but Cincinnati tacked on three in the sixth - an RBI single from Rolen and two-run double from Hernandez off Chris Capuano.

Phillips doubled leading off the seventh against David Riske and scored on Cabrera's base hit. Rolen added a sacrifice fly to account for the final margin.

Game Notes

The Brewers went 1-for-9 with men in scoring position and left 11 runners on base...The Brewers have homered in 16 straight games, the longest stretch for the team since July 1-24, 2008 when they did it in a franchise-record 20 straight games.

LaDainian Tomlinson Favorite to be 2007 NFL MVP

With the first NFL preseason game less than two weeks away, it is time to start thinking about football once again at MySportsbook.com. Reigning NFL MVP LaDainian Tomlinson is currently the 5-1 co-favorite to win the award again alongside Super Bowl MVP Peyton Manning.

This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone after his all out assault on the record books last season. For those suffering from amnesia or were under a rock last football season, all L.T. did last season was set the NFL record for rushing touchdowns (28), total touchdowns (31) and total points scored (186) to go along with his 1815 rushing yards and 508 receiving yards. At 6-1, Tom Brady is next in line which isn’t surprising considering all of the firepower the Pats added over the off-season. With the addition of Randy Moss, Donte Stallworth and Wes Welker; it would be quite difficult for Brady’s numbers not to improve from last years 3529 yards and 24 touchdowns. There appears to be some decent value in Drew Bees at 10-1 considering he probably would have won the award last year if it wasn’t for L.T.’s record breaking season.

There is no reason to think the Saints will come back to earth this season and playing in a weak NFC, they should have as good a shot as any to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. At 15-1, Donovan McNabb could also be worth a look. Remember, many felt he was the MVP of the first half of the season before going down with a season ending injury. Reportedly, he is in great shape and well ahead of schedule to return to form. Also, he could have some added motivation to put up big numbers this season with the Eagles using their first pick in the draft on McNabb’s future successor Kevin Kolb.
