Happ strong again as Astros down ArizonaBaseball Betting Lines09/05/2010 - Phoenix, AZ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Hunter Pence's three-run home run in the first inning stood up as the deciding hit as Houston held off Arizona, 3-2, to wrap up a three-game set. Pence finished 2-for-4 and Jeff Keppinger added a hit and a run scored for the Astros, who took the final two games of the series and have won five of their last six contests. J.A. Happ (6-2) continued his fine pitching since being acquired from Philadelphia, as he yielded two runs on six hits while walking two and striking out seven over seven frames to grab the win and Brandon Lyon worked around a one-out double in the ninth to register his 13th save. Rodrigo Lopez (5-13) allowed all three runs on six hits and a pair of walks while striking out five over six innings to take the loss for the Diamondbacks, who claimed the season series, 4-3. Michael Bourn started the game with a walk and Keppinger followed with a base hit before Pence pounded his three-run home run the other way to right field to put the Astros ahead. Arizona chipped away at the lead on John Hester's solo homer in the third and Kelly Johnson's solo shot to center in the fourth. The hosts' bid to tie the game in the fifth was thwarted when Hester was thrown out at the plate trying to score from second base on Stephen Drew's infield single. Happ worked out of a first-and-second, one-out jam in the seventh by striking out Hester and pinch-hitter Ryan Roberts to close his performance. Matt Lindstrom stranded Chris Young at third base in a scoreless eighth before turning the game over to Lyon, who got Gerardo Parra to fly out and pinch-hitter Miguel Montero to strike out to end the game after Brandon Allen's pinch-hit double. Game Notes Pence has hit safely in six straight, including five multi-hit games, and has 11 hits during that stretch...Lyon has thrown scoreless relief in 13 consecutive outings and in 23 of his last 24 appearances since July 20...He has also converted each of his last 10 save chances since August 13...Lopez fell to 1-2 in four career outings against Houston, with his lone win coming as a member of the Orioles on June 15, 2005...Arizona outfielder Justin Upton missed his fifth straight game due to irritation in his left shoulder.

Super Bowl XLIII betting odds at online bookmaker MySportsbook.com have the Steelers listed as an early -6.5 against the spread favorite.Super Bowl XLIII Betting Odds Pittsburgh earned their passage to the big game by beating their division rival, the Baltimore Ravens, 23-14 in yesterday's AFC Championship Game. The Steelers jumped on Baltimore early, building a 13-0 first half lead, and never let up on their way to a fairly easy win. Although the Ravens did close to within two points in the fourth quarter, it never appeared as if they had enough offense to pull off the upset. The Steelers dominating defense held Baltimore to a total of 198 yards while allowing them to convert just three third downs in 13 attempts. Pittsburgh also forced quarterback Joe Flacco into three interceptions, one of which safety Troy Polamalu returned fourty yards for a touchdown. The Cardinals, by far the playoff team with the longest odds to reach Super Bowl XLIII, did so yesterday with a 32-25 upset of the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship. Arizona charged out of the gates and built a 24-6 halftime lead that had the Eagles venerable defense reeling. Quarterback Kurt Warner and wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald did most of the damage, connecting on three first half touchdowns. Arizona, however, could not sustain their momentum and the Eagles took a 25-24 with 10:45 left to play in the fourth. The Cardinals, with the franchise's first Super Bowl appearance hanging in the balance, mounted a fourteen play, 72 yard touchdown drive that consumed 7:52 off the clock. Warner hit running back Tim Hightower on a short screen for the go-ahead, game clinching score that will forever live in Cardinal infamy.
