Lohse continues winning streak, Mulder returns as Cards crush Mets
Baseball Betting Lines
06/30/2008 -
St. Louis, MO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Kyle Lohse threw seven strong innings to win
his seventh consecutive decision as the Cardinals blew out the New York Mets,
7-1, on a night Mark Mulder made his return to the majors.
Lohse (10-2) allowed five hits and one unearned run while walking two batters
and logging four strikeouts to remain unbeaten over his last 10 outings and
hasn't lost since May 8 at Colorado. The seven-game winning streak ties the
longest of his career.
Mulder yielded two hits and struck out a batter while pitching the ninth
inning - his first major league game of 2008. The Cardinals left-hander is
trying to work his way back from two injury-plagued seasons. He had surgery on
his left shoulder at the end of the 2006 season and missed almost all of 2007.
Monday marked his first career relief appearance in the majors.
Albert Pujols drove in two runs and Chris Duncan clubbed a two-run homer for
the Cardinals, winners of three straight following a three-game skid. Aaron
Miles extended his hitting streak to 12 games, going 3-for-5 with two runs
scored in the opener of the four-game series.
John Maine (8-6) was charged with seven hits and five runs -- three earned --
over four innings for New York, losers in three of its last four games.
The Mets committed three errors and scored their lone run on a Cardinals
miscue.
It was a rough start for Maine, who allowed the first four batters to reach
base, although the Cardinals scored only twice in the first inning. Skip
Schumaker walked, and Miles and Pujols singled to account for the first run.
Rick Ankiel walked to load the bases, and Troy Glaus' double-play grounder
made it a 2-0 margin.
Yadier Molina singled to lead off the bottom of the second, and two outs later
Mets second baseman Luis Castillo let a ball go through his legs on
Schumaker's grounder, leading to the third run.
Glaus doubled in Ankiel in the third and Pujols' base hit in the fourth scored
Miles.
The Mets' only run came in the fifth. Andy Phillips laced a pinch-hit single,
and with two down scored following a Castillo base hit combined with a
throwing error from Ankiel.
Glaus was hit by a pitch from Carlos Muniz to begin the bottom of the inning,
and Duncan followed with a homer to right, his fifth.
The Cardinals, who stranded 11 runners, wasted bases-loaded chances in the
seventh and eighth innings.
Game Notes
Lohse also won seven straight decisions July 25 of last year to April 27 of
this season...Earlier Monday, the Cardinals recalled pitcher Brad Thompson
from Triple-A Memphis on Monday and optioned outfielder Nick Stavinoha to

Dallas Cowboys 15-1 Super Bowl Odds With Romo, Owens Concerns
Will he or won't he? Now that the Dallas Cowboys have a new head coach in Wade Phillips, the big question will be: Does Terrell Owens stay with the team.
Jerry Jones continues to suggest that Terrell Owens will remain with the team.
"I've said that he's back, he's here, he's under contract," Jones said. "In the interviews I've just been through (to hire a new coach), it was very clear to me how highly he's thought of and how much of an impact he had on our offensive success."
Just to be sure though, Terrell Owens cleared out his locker and removed his name plate.
Terrell Owens was among the Cowboys most productive players this past season, catching 85 passes for 1,180 yards and a league-best 13 touchdowns.
But T.O. is due a $3 million roster bonus in June, then a $5 million salary this season. Cutting him before then would save a lot of money and headaches.
Aside from the questions surrounding Terrell Owens, the oddsmakers at MySportsbook.com have concerns over starting quarterback Tony Romo's state of mind and whether he will remain a starting quarterback. It is also not known how players will adjust to new head coach, Wade Phillips.
