Arroyo dominant as Reds down MetsBaseball Betting Lines07/07/2010 - Flushing, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Brandon Phillips' solo home run and run- scoring double was all of the offense Bronson Arroyo needed as the Cincinnati Reds won the rubber match of a three-game set over the New York Mets, 3-1, at Citi Field. Chris Heisey also homered in support of Arroyo (9-4), who gave up just one run on seven hits with three strikeouts over eight effective frames for Cincinnati, which has won three of four. Jonathan Niese (6-3) was the hard-luck loser, scattering three runs on six hits with eight strikeouts and just one walk over 7 2/3 innings. New York's lone offense came from Angel Pagan's solo home run in the bottom of the first. The Reds answered in the third with Phillips' solo shot -- Cincinnati's lone hit in the first six frames. Meanwhile, New York had several chances to take the lead, failing at each turn. A one-out double by the Niese in the third was offset by his poor baserunning, allowing the Reds to nab him at third on Jose Reyes' grounder to short. Josh Thole and Jesus Feliciano started the bottom of the fifth with consecutive singles before Alex Cora moved each runner up a base with a slow roller to first. Niese, however, struck out and Reyes grounded out to end the threat. Cincinnati's second hit of the game was a big one as Heisey homered to left for a 2-1 game in the seventh. Drew Stubbs then singled, moved to second on Arroyo's base hit and scored on Phillips' two-bagger. Ike Davis led off the home ninth with a double into the right-center-field gap. After a Jason Bay fly out, Thole walked before Feliciano lined a shot that hung up for Jay Bruce in center. Francisco Cordero then retired Cora to save his 24th game of the season. Game Notes Niese saw his five-decision winning streak come to an end. He lost for the first time since May 16...Arroyo has a 4-1 mark over his last five starts...Phillips hit his 12th home run of the season in the victory.

MySportsbook.com: New College Football Clock Rules Examined Coaches and bettors alike are desperate to make sense of the new time-keeping rules on the NCAA gridiron. One of the big stories to come out of the Ohio State-Texas clash last weekend was Texas coach Mack Brown's criticism of the NCAA's new clock rules that are intended to shorten the duration of college football games, therefore affecting college football betting. "They scored with six minutes left and the game was over before we had a chance to do anything," Brown told ESPN.com. "I really hope whoever made these changes will go back and look them over." Sure, it might be sour grapes; the Buckeyes thoroughly trounced the defending national champion Longhorns 24-7. However, Brown isn't alone in giving the changes their due thought. Bettors are also wondering about them, albeit for a completely different reason. Most experts agree that the changes will result in games being shortened by anywhere from 10 to 20 plays. The obvious consequence is lower scores, with more time rolling off the clock during changes of possession. (The Ohio State-Texas game flew well under the total of 52.) According to research at the online sportsbook MySportsbook.com, more than 18 plays a game disappeared last weekend into thin air. That's a 10-percent reduction. In 2005, a typical game had 168.58 plays. For 2007 already, it's down to 150.26. As a result, teams combined to gain an average of about 100 fewer yards a game last weekend versus the 2005 openers. Scoring was also down by about 4.5 points (attention Las Vegas sports lines). Of course, oddsmakers were able to adjust to the changes before the season started. Proof of that came as the over went a balanced 8-9 at My Sportsbook on Saturday. Other angles to consider:A shorter game should theoretically result in shorter lines. Whereas Team A might have been a 14-point favorite in a 168-play game (last year), if there are 10 percent less snaps in 2007, the line should also be reduced by 10 percent (to 13 or 12.5). Of course, this is an over-simplification of the matter, but something to keep in mind. *UPDATE* - Sept. 25, 2007 New Clock Rules Boon for online bookmakers By adjusting the time-keeping rules to shorten the duration of college football games, the NCAA hoped to make its product more enjoyable for the fans. While the NCAA's success in this regard is still up for debate, bookmakers couldn't be happier with the results. "We are seeing a massive jump in college football betting," noted the MySportsbook.com management team. "With all the early Saturday games (12 a.m. ET) ending before the second wave begins (3:30 p.m. ET) - something that didn't always happen before the changes - bettors are now able to re-invest their winnings from the morning session in the afternoon games." While not all bettors will choose to roll over their winnings, it doesn't take much for an impact to be seen on the bottom line. "Not all of the millions of dollars in morning payouts get re-bet. In fact, it's probably only 10 to 20 percent," noted the sportsbook management team. "Still, the increased football betting lines window will create a ton of growth for us over the course of the season."
