Sabathia domiantes as Yanks sweep A's
Baseball Betting Lines
09/02/2010 - Bronx, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - CC Sabathia became baseball's first 19-game winner with a one-hitter over eight innings as the Yankees completed a four- game sweep of Oakland with a 5-0 win.
Sabathia (19-5) now has a streak of 21 unbeaten starts at home, during which time he's gone 16-0. The streak dates back to July 18, 2009 and matched the last such longest streak when Ron Guidry posted 16 straight winning decisions at home in 1985-86.
The stout lefty yielded only a Mark Ellis single in the second inning, issued three walks and struck out five to win his sixth straight start dating back to an August 1 loss to Tampa Bay.
New York ran its win streak to six games -- the longest such streak since a seven-game run from July 3-9 -- while increasing its lead over the idle Rays atop the American League East standings to 1 1/2 games.
Curtis Granderson hit two home runs and drove in three after entering the game in the second inning for Nick Swisher, who developed stiffness in his left knee. Jorge Posada opened the scoring with a solo blast in the second.
It was the Yankees' first four-game sweep of Oakland since September 5-8, 1985.
Dallas Braden (9-10) pitched well through five-plus innings before leaving with cramping on a hot day at Yankee Stadium that saw temperatures on the field in excess of 100 degrees. The southpaw was charged with only two hits and one run with two walks and four strikeouts.
The Athletics wrapped up a 10-game road trip at 4-6.

Albert Pujols to be This Year's Home Run Champ Says Online Sportsbook
Barry Bonds is a 50-1 long shot to be this year's home run champ odds. The favorite to be this year's home run champ is none other than Albert Pujols, however.
Now that Barry Bonds is signed and in Giants camp, it is on to his pursuit of all of sports most prestigious records: the all-time home run mark. Bonds sits just 21 homers shy of tying Hank Aaron for the career mark at 755. Word out of Giants’ camp is that Bonds is the healthiest he has been in a few years. Bonds is just two seasons removed from his injury riddled 2005 campaign where he played in only 14 games and hit only 5 home runs. He did come back last year and had a solid season hitting .270 with 26 bombs. All eyes will be on Bonds this spring and summer not only because of his home run chase but his highly publicized steroid abuse allegations. If and when Bonds breaks the record, he surely will not get the positive attention one should for breaking a record that was once thought of as “unbreakable”. Despite Bonds decent season last year, he is just 50-1 at MySportsbook.com to lead the MLB in long balls this season.
Not surprisingly, the favorites to go deep the most times this season are Albert Pujols 5-1, Ryan Howard 6-1, David Ortiz 8-1 and Alex Rodriguez 12-1. With 49 homers, Pujols finished second in the National League behind Howard (58). Pujols is considered the favorite due to the consistent power numbers that he has posted since breaking into the league in 2001. Also one must consider the fact that he played in 16 fewer games then Howard did due to an injury. Howard smashed 58 homers in his first complete season of big league play en route to the National League MVP odds award. He silenced his critics by successfully hitting left-handed pitching. Howard also displayed the ability to use his power to the opposite field. Two attributes which should keep Howard amongst the league leaders in long balls for years to come. From the American League representatives, David Ortiz leads the field. Ortiz was second in the majors last year with 54 home runs. Except for 1999 when he only played in 10 games, Ortiz has improved on his home run numbers each year he has been in the majors (1997).
