Johnson Moustakas Salvage Smash From San

Baseball Betting Lines

San Diego, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Anthony Rizzo had a two-run single and Tim Stauffer tossed seven innings of one-run ball to lift San Diego over Kansas City, 4-1, to complete a three-game sweep. The series sweep was the first of the year for the Padres and the first since they took three games from the Los Angeles Dodgers from September 6-8 last season.

 

Heath Bell worked himself out of a jam in the ninth to earn his 23rd save of the year.

 

The Royals threatened in the ninth after back-to-back singles to start the inning by Mike Moustakas and Brayan Pena. But Bell was able to get three straight fly balls, the final two on full counts, to end the game and earn his 16th consecutive save opportunity and the 57th in the last 58 attempts dating back to last year.

 

San Diego got that run back, plus more, thanks to defensive miscues by third baseman Moustakas in the bottom half of the inning. Tim Stauffer led off the inning by reaching base on a fielding error by Moustakas, and was followed by a Chris Denorfia single to put men on first and second with no outs. It looked like the Padres would leave the frame empty-handed, though, when the next two batters, Cameron Maybin and Chase Headly, hit weak pop ups, but Ryan Ludwick came through with a double down the left-field line to bring in Stauffer.

 

The Padres improved to 6-0 all-time against the Royals at Petco Park, leaving it as the only active ballpark in which the Royals have not recorded a victory...San Diego ended a six-game homestand with a 5-1 record...With the loss, Chen dropped his career record to 52-52.

 

New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Major League Baseball has suspended free agent pitcher Luis Vizcaino 50 games after he tested positive for metabolites of Stanozolol, a performance-enhancing substance. The 36-year-old Vizcaino won't start his suspension until he signs with a major league club.

 

Baltimore, MD (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Chris Carpenter went the distance to lead the St. Louis Cardinals to a 5-1 victory over the Baltimore Orioles in the middle contest of a three game interleague series at Camden Yards. Carpenter (3-7) gave up a run on seven hits, fanned three and walked one in his second complete game of the season and 31st of his career. He finished the game with 132 pitches -- 91 strikes -- the most he has thrown in a start since he tossed 134 back in 1998 as a member of the Toronto Blue Jays.

 

Chris Jakubauskas (2-1) worked five innings in defeat for the Orioles, giving up five runs on seven hits while fanning a pair and walking three.

 

The Cardinals jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the second inning. Berkman worked a walk and Rasmus followed two batters later by blasting a fastball from Jakubauskas deep into the seats in right for his eighth home run of the season.

 

St. Louis extended its lead in the third on an RBI single by Schumaker. Jon Jay followed with a single to left and Matt Holliday was plunked by a pitch to load the bases with no outs. Lance Berkman lofted a sacrifice fly to center to score Schumaker and give the Cardinals a 4-0. Baltimore escaped a huge inning when Jakubauskas induced a 6-3 double play from David Freese to limit the damage to only a pair of runs.

El Duque expected to throw Tuesday

PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- New York Mets pitcher Orlando Hernandez, sidelined at spring training because of arthritis in his neck, is expected to resume throwing on Tuesday.

Hernandez received a cortisone shot Thursday after leaving camp and returning to New York to have his neck examined. The 41-year-old right-hander is penciled in as the team's No. 2 starter behind Tom Glavine.

El Duque's health is a major issue for the Mets, who won the NL East in 2007 and came within one victory of the World Series. Their aging and unsettled rotation is a big question mark this year.

MySportsbook.com has the Mets as -110 favorites to repeat as NL East champions odds. 

Hernandez went 11-11 with a 4.66 ERA last season, including 9-7 with a 4.09 ERA in 20 starts after the Mets acquired him from Arizona in late May. But he missed the playoffs because of a torn calf muscle.

New York already is without Pedro Martinez, out until at least midseason following rotator cuff surgery. Among those competing for starting jobs are prospects Mike Pelfrey, Philip Humber and Jason Vargas, plus veterans Chan Ho Park, Jorge Sosa and Aaron Sele.

Notes: Mets manager Willie Randolph is excited about two new utility players he could have on his bench: Damion Easley and David Newhan. ''Their value is really all over the place,'' Randolph said. Easley can play anywhere in the infield and could be used as an emergency outfielder, though Randolph said he would prefer to keep the veteran in the infield. Newhan, meanwhile, can play second base, third or any outfield position for the Mets. ''I love versatility,'' Randolph said. ''I love guys that can give me options when I need them to step in.''
