Brewers aim to rebound vs. GiantsBaseball Betting Lines07/06/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - For Brewers shortstop Alcides Escobar, the All-Star break can't come soon enough. The 23-year-old will try to shake off his third crucial error in two games this evening when Milwaukee hosts the San Francisco Giants for the second game of four straight at Miller Park. Escobar made two errors that led to five unearned runs in Sunday's loss to the Cardinals, then booted a potential double-play ball with one out that helped key a four-run seventh frame for the Giants in last night's 6-1 setback. "The key play was the ground ball where we thought we were going to get a double play and then we went 0-for-12 with runners in scoring position," Brewers manager Ken Macha said. "I'm more frustrated then the fans are. The Giants put the ball in play with the bases loaded and we didn't." Milwaukee managed just Rickie Weeks' bases-loaded walk in the second inning in losing for the second straight game and for the third time in four contests. Starter Dave Bush yielded just one run over six innings, but Kameron Loe was charged with four runs -- two earned -- while recording just one out in relief. All-Star Corey Hart went 2-for-5 with a double in the loss, extending his hitting streak to 20 games. He is batting .360 (31-for-86) on the run with a pair of homers and 19 RBI. Aubrey Huff followed Escobar's error, which allowed one run to score and kept the bases loaded, with a two-run bloop single and ended with three hits, while Buster Posey added a solo homer in just San Francisco's second win in 10 games. Jonathan Sanchez earned the win for yielding a run over six innings with six strikeouts. "I feel good with the way I'm throwing right now," Sanchez said. "I was able to go deep into the game and give our bullpen a rest for the most part." San Francisco will look to win back-to-back games for the first time since June 20-22 and send Madison Bumgarner to the hill tonight. The 20-year-old is still searching for his first major league win after failing to post a decision in four games -- one start -- last season before losing his first two starts in 2010. The left-hander, who has never faced Milwaukee, has notched consecutive seven- inning outings versus the Red Sox and Rockies, allowing seven earned runs. In Thursday's loss to Colorado, Bumgarner allowed four runs -- three earned -- on nine hits with five strikeouts. The Brewers go with 33-year-old Randy Wolf, who picked up a victory over the Cardinals on Thursday. He allowed just a run on four hits over 6 1/3 innings of work, improving to 6-7 with a 4.70 earned run average this season. The lefty is 8-4 with a 3.23 ERA in 16 career starts versus the Giants. San Francisco, which split six games at Miller Park last year, has won four of its last five versus Milwaukee after dropping nine of 11 in the series.

Super Bowl XLIV OddsSuper Bowl XLIII isn't even a week old yet and oddsmakers have already released Super Bowl XLIV odds. Despite the Pittsburgh Steelers winning Super Bowl 43, the New England Patriots are 8/1 favorites to win Super Bowl 44. Bet Super Bowl XLIV Future Odds With their 27-23 victory over the Arizona Cardinals in Super Bowl XLIII, the Steelers became the latest NFL champion. But believe it or not, oddsmakers from online sports book MySportsbook.com don't have the Steelers the favorites to win Super Bowl XLIV next season. That honor belongs to the New England Patriots, who are 8/1 favorites to win despite not even qualify for the postseason in 2008. The Pats also have a major decision to make regarding what to do with Matt Cassel, who played well in Tom Brady's (knee surgery) absence last year but is also a free agent this offseason. Ironically, the Steelers aren't even oddsmakers second choice to win Super Bowl 44, as the Dallas Cowboys are listed right behind the Patriots at 9/1 despite not making the playoffs themselves. Clearly oddsmakers think the public will hop back on the Cowboys' bandwagon considering the immense talent they have and the opening of a brand new stadium. After Dallas, then comes Pittsburgh at 10/1, but they share those odds with the New York Giants, who won Super Bowl XLII. The Indianapolis Colts and San Diego Chargers round out the top six teams at 12/1, while the Baltimore Ravens (14/1), Tennessee Titans (16/1), Carolina Panthers (18/1) and Philadelphia Eagles (18/1) complete the top 10. The NFC Champion Arizona Cardinals got no love from oddsmakers as they were established as a 30/1 long shot to win next year's Super Bowl. They share those same odds with the Chicago Bears and Tampa Bay Buccaneers – two teams that didn't even qualify for the postseason. Other long shots are the Kansas City Chiefs (100/1), Detroit Lions (100/1), St. Louis Rams (75/1) and Oakland Raiders (75/1). To see a complete list of all the team's odds to win Super Bowl XLIV, check below.
