Bodemeister solid favorite over Derby winner in Preakness

It’s not too often that a Kentucky Derby winner won’t then be favored for the Stakes, the second leg of horse racing’s Triple Crown, but that is the case for Saturday’s race at Pimlico at Baltimore.

Despite finishing second in the Derby, Bodemeister was installed as the 8-5 WagerWeb.com favorite for Saturday’s race and will break from Post 7. The colt, trained by Bob Baffert, set the pace at Churchill Downs before being overtaken in the stretch by I’ll Have Another, who won by 1 1/2 lengths.

I’ll Have Another is the second-favorite in the Preakness at 5-2. He breaks from Post 9 in the field of 11 entered for the Preakness. Four of the top five finishers in the Derby are in the field. Six Derby contestants were entered for the second jewel of the Triple Crown with five newcomers. The field is the smallest since 2007, when Curlin beat Derby winner Street Sense in a nine-horse field.

Should I’ll Have Another win the Preakness, the Kentucky-bred son of Flower Alley would be positioned to become the first Triple Crown winner since 1978. The Santa Anita champion, undefeated in 2012, suffered a shin injury last September and has raced only three times as a 3-year-old.

Bodemeister, who was sent off the slight 4-1 favorite for the Derby, can give Baffert his sixth Preakness victory and his first since Lookin At Lucky won the race in 2010. Bodemeister set one of the quickest tempos in Kentucky Derby history (:22.32, :45.39, 1:09.80 for the first six furlongs) last Saturday with Mike Smith aboard and led by three lengths in the stretch. But he could not fend off the determined challenge from 15-1 shot I’ll Have Another, who reeled in the leader under little known jockey Mario Gutierrez near the sixteenth pole and drew clear for the triumph.

Bodemeister became only the sixth horse in Derby history to run the opening six furlongs under 1:10, and of those only the second to “hit the board,” or finish in the top three. (Spend a Buck won the 1985 Derby after opening up a six-length advantage in 1:09.60.) I’ll Have Another ran the final quarter-mile in 25.99 seconds. That enabled him to catch and pass a dead-tired Bodemeister, who ran the final quarter-mile in 26.94.

At Pimlico there is only one reason to question Bodemeister, and it has nothing to do with his talent. The colt has crammed his whole five-race career into the span of four months, and the exertions may have taken a toll on him. After the Derby, Baffert said, “I was worried that he might be wiped out and stay in the back of his stall for three days and sulk.” But Baffert believes his colt has bounced back and is ready to run at the level he did in the Derby.

Also entered in the Preakness are Tiger Walk (30-1), Teeth of the Dog (15-1), Pretension (30-1), Zetterholm (20-1), Went the Day Well (6-1), Creative Cause (6-1), Daddy Nose Best (12-1), Optimizer (30-1) and Cozzetti (30-1).

NHL playoffs betting: Phoenix Coyotes at L.A. Kings, Game 3

Perhaps it’s a good thing for Phoenix that tonight’s Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals is in Los Angeles because even though the Coyotes are down 2-0 in this series and look overmatched, the Kings have proven invincible on the road but at least somewhat beatable at home. But L.A. is a big -200 favorite tonight on WagerWeb.com.

The Kings dominated Phoenix in Game 2 on Tuesday, winning 4-0 in the desert. Jeff Carter, the big addition at the trade deadline, scored three goals and Jonathan Quick stopped 24 shots as Los Angeles took a commanding series lead.

Dwight King scored his third goal in two games, Quick tied Felix Potvin’s team record with his third career playoff shutout, and Carter finished off the Kings’ first playoff hat trick since Wayne Gretzky in 1993 in the third period.

King gave the Kings a 1-0 lead on a deflection off a point shot from defenseman Drew Doughty about 13 minutes into the game, and that held up through the first period. The Coyotes came out with much more intensity in the second, but the Kings killed that momentum when Dustin Penner did some nice work down low to get the puck to Carter, who scored 4:47 into the period for a 2-0 lead. After that goal, you could almost hear the puck drop inside Jobing.com Arena.

Quick has allowed 16 goals in 11 playoff games and stopped 309 of 325 shots for a sizzling .951 save percentage. He has allowed more than two goals in a game only once in the playoffs, a Game 4 loss against the Vancouver Canucks in the opening round, L.A.’s only playoff defeat of 2012.

Los Angeles has won seven straight overall, tied an NHL record by opening the playoffs 7-0 on the road, and matched another record by winning nine straight road playoff games over two seasons. The New York Islanders won a pair of Stanley Cup titles while winning nine straight road games from 1982-83, and the Kings are starting to look like a team that could go on a Cup run of its own.

The Kings have not trailed in the playoffs since midway through first period of Game 1 against the St. Louis Blues. L.A. has scored first in eight of 11 playoff games and won the other three. The Kings have killed 28 straight penalties and 44 of 47 overall in the playoffs.

Phoenix also will be without a key player tonight as forward Martin Hanzal was suspended for one game for boarding Kings forward Dustin Brown during Game 2. The incident occurred at 11:01 of the third period. Hanzal was assessed a major penalty and game misconduct for boarding.

NBA playoffs betting: Miami Heat at Indiana Pacers, Game 3

The didn’t look like the NBA championship favorites in their first game without the injured Chris Bosh, and now the Heat must bounce back from their first home playoff loss ever against any Eastern Conference foe since LeBron James and Bosh joined the team as the travel to Indiana for tonight’s Game 3. The Heat are 1.5-point favorites on WagerWeb.com.

Bosh was hurt late in the first half of Game 1 on Sunday, on a play where he drove for a dunk and got fouled. He was in immediate pain, checked out of the game when the pain became too unbearable one possession later, and was diagnosed with the muscle strain. An MRI on Monday confirmed that diagnosis and he’s likely out for the rest of this series at a minimum.

Bosh was hugely missed in Miami’s 78-75 Game 2 loss. LeBron James scored 28 points for Miami and Dwyane Wade finished with 24 but Miami shot only 35 percent, got outrebounded 50-40 and besides James and Wade, no other Heat player scored more than five points. It was the first time in Heat franchise history that only two players scored more than five points in a game, regular-season or playoffs. It was just the fourth time in the shot clock era in that two or fewer players on any NBA team scored six-plus points in a playoff game. All four teams lost the game.

In addition, both LeBron and Wade blew chances to tie or win the game late. James missed two free throws with 54.3 seconds left and Miami down one, and Wade was short on a layup that would have tied the game with 16 seconds remaining. And on Miami’s final possession with a chance to tie, Wade passed up a shot and instead dished off to Mario Chalmers, who missed a 3-pointer. How is it that LeBron and Wade are two of the five best players in the world and neither takes that shot? The Heat were 1-for-16 from long range in Game 2.

LeBron went 4-for-8 from the free throw in the 4th quarter, including those two key misses. He is now shooting just 59 percent from the free throw line this season in the final minute of one-possession games. The rest of his team is a combined 13-for-15. LeBron’s last shot attempt came with 3:35 remaining in the fourth quarter (a missed 3-pointer).

The 75 points scored by the Heat are tied for second fewest by a team in which the MVP played on. All five teams that scored 75 or fewer points lost the game.

David West scored 16 points and grabbed 10 rebounds for Indiana. George Hill had 15 points, Danny Granger scored 11 and Paul George added 10 for the Pacers, who made only 38 percent of its shots. The Pacers had been 2-9 this season when shooting that poorly. Indiana outscored the Heat 16-10 in transition during Game 2. The Heat have lost both times this postseason when they were outscored in transition. Miami shot a postseason-low 22.2 percent (2-9) in transition, including 0-for-3 by Wade.

Indiana and Miami split two meetings in Indianapolis this season, ironically by the same 105-90 score.

Can Albert Pujols homer for second game in a row Thursday?

It appears the firing of hitting coach Mickey Hatcher on Tuesday has lit a fire under the as he has been a different hitter the past two days and the Halos have actually gone on a two-game winning streak. They try for a sweep of the White Sox on Thursday afternoon and are -156 betting favorites on WagerWeb.com.

Pujols went 0-for-5 on Monday to see his average drop to an unthinkable .197. Then the Hatcher move was made Tuesday. Pujols had three hits and two RBIs that night in a 4-0 win over Oakland. And then on Wednesday, the future Hall of Famer welcomed new hitting coach Jim Eppard to town with a three-run homer,  just Pujols’ second of the season and his first this month. The Halos won 7-2.

During Hatcher’s watch, the Angels set franchise records in 2009 for average, hits, home runs, runs scored, RBIs and average with runners in scoring position — and won a World Series title in 2002. But GM Jerry DiPoto felt the time was appropriate to make the change.

“We were not in an offensive funk because of Mickey,” manager Mike Scioscia said. “Mickey’s a great teacher and a great hitting coach, and we’ve had a lot of continuity here. But we all respect what the general manager’s office is about. Jerry’s position is to try to make changes that he believes is going to help us become better, and we have to respect that.”

It should be an easy transition for Eppard, who nurtured current Angels Howie Kendrick, Kendrys Morales, Mark Trumbo, Erick Aybar, Peter Bourjos and Bobby Wilson as the hitting coach at Triple-A Salt Lake.

Trailing 2-1 on Wednesday, the Angels grabbed a 4-2 lead with one swing by Pujols, who drove an 0-1 pitch over the center-field fence after Mike Trout and Albert Callaspo opened the inning with singles. It was the 447th career homer for Pujols, the three-time NL MVP who ended the longest regular-season drought of his career after 33 games and 139 at-bats in the finale of the Angels’ previous homestand.

“I just got a good pitch to hit,” said Pujols, who is batting just .213 after going 1-for-4 with a strikeout. “I wanted to make sure it was up and try to hit something up to try and stay away from the double play.”

There have been positives from Pujols lately. He got those three infield hits in Tuesday’s win over the A’s, has driven in 12 runs in his last 10 games — after having just five RBIs through the first 27 — and has hit a few balls on the nose recently.

L.A. turns to lefty C.J. Wilson today against Chicago lefty Chris Sale.

Vegas Sports Gambling – Texas Rangers vs Oakland Athletics

The Texas Rangers go for a sweep of their two-game series with the Oakland Athletics when they host their American League West rivals Thursday. Texas had lost four of six before Yu Darvish led it to a 4-1 triumph over Oakland on Wednesday. Darvish improved to 4-0 at home with 7 2/3 strong innings and Adrian Beltre belted a two-run homer as the Rangers snapped their two-game skid.

Texas slugger Josh Hamilton failed to homer for the fourth straight contest but recorded two singles to extend his hitting streak to 16 games. Hamilton could be given Thursday off as Rangers manager Ron Washington has rested many of his regulars over the last few contests. Oakland has won five of eight overall on the road but only one of its last nine visits to Texas. The Rangers have captured 13 of the last 15 overall meetings between the clubs.

PITCHING MATCHUP: Athletics RH Brandon McCarthy (3-3, 2.56 ERA) vs. Rangers LH Matt Harrison (4-3, 5.23)

McCarthy, who will be seeking his fourth consecutive victory, has allowed two earned runs or fewer in seven of his eight starts this year. In his last outing, the 28-year-old scattered four hits and struck out a career high-tying 10 over seven scoreless innings versus Detroit. McCarthy has struggled against his former team, going 1-4 with a 4.06 ERA in nine games – seven starts.

Harrison has lost three of his last four starts, including a defeat against the Los Angeles Angels on Saturday in which he allowed four runs in six innings. He has surrendered three or more runs in each of his last five outings after yielding a total of one run in 14 frames over his first two starts. Harrison is 4-1 with a 4.10 ERA and one shutout in nine career games – six starts – against Oakland.

Washington Nationals visit the Pittsburgh Pirates – MLB Odds

Washington and Pittsburgh Pirates came into Wednesday’s game ranked 1-2 in the majors in ERA and among the lowest-scoring teams, but a contest that began as a pitchers’ duel between Gio Gonzalez and Erik Bedard turned into a slugfest late, with the Nationals reclaiming first place in the National League East after a 7-4 triumph. Adam LaRoche led the Washington assault, going 3-for-4 with a home run and four runs batted in. He is hitting .360 with seven homers in 29 career games against his former team.

The Washington Nationals, who have overcome a rash of injuries to stay in the thick of the NL East, suffered another setback when it was confirmed that catcher Wilson Ramos will miss the rest of the season with a torn ACL. Most of Pittsburgh’s pain has been self-inflicted – the Pirates have effectively negated their strong pitching effort by ranking at or near the bottom of the majors in most offensive categories, including a distant last in runs scored.

PITCHING MATCHUP: Pirates RH James McDonald (2-2, 2.42 ERA) vs. Nationals RH Jordan Zimmermann (2-3, 2.14)

McDonald has been surprisingly effective in 2012, allowing only one run in four of his seven starts and no more than three in any outing. He has yielded two runs in his last 14 1/3 innings, but was on the losing end of a 1-0 decision in his last start (May 11 versus Houston). In four career games against Washington, McDonald is 0-1 with a 4.15 ERA and one hold.

Like McDonald, Zimmermann has pitched well all season but been victimized on occasion by his team’s ineffective offense. The right-hander has held five of his seven opponents to one run, but is only 2-1 in those contests. Zimmermann, who has never faced Pittsburgh, is still looking for his first home win of the year (0-2, 2.73 ERA in four starts).

1. The Pirates have not been particularly fond of the road in recent years, winning only 68 of their last 225 away games.

2. Pittsburgh shortstop Clint Barmes is 4-for-4 against Zimmermann with a walk, home run and four RBIs. The only other Pirates who have faced Zimmermann are catcher Rod Barajas (1-for-2) and outfielder Nate McLouth(2-for-8).

3. The Nationals are a combined 8-for-29 (.276) against McDonald. Second baseman Danny Espinosa (2-for-3) is the lone Washington player with more than one hit.

MLB Baseball Lines – Kansas City Royals at Baltimore Orioles

The Baltimore Orioles got the better of the Kansas City Royals‘ bullpen and walked out of Kauffman Stadium with a 4-3 win in 15 innings. Adam Jones provided the honors by homering for the second time in as many days. The Royals’ relievers would like another go at the Orioles as the teams conclude their abbreviated two-game series on Thursday. Entering the contest with a sparkling 1.04 ERA in its last seven games, the bullpen allowed three runs in the eighth and ninth innings to force extra frames.

Wilson Betemit homered and J.J. Hardy had three hits – including an RBI single with two outs in the ninth inning – as Baltimore won its third straight. Kansas City saw its four-game winning streak come to an end and fall to 4-14 at home after closer Jonathan Broxton failed to hold a 3-1 advantage.

PITCHING MATCHUP: Orioles LH Brian Matusz (2-4, 5.50 ERA) vs. Royals RH Luke Hochevar (3-3, 7.20)

Matusz rebounded from his worst outing of the season to record his second win in three starts. The fourth overall pick of the 2008 draft, Matusz yielded three runs and seven hits in 5 2/3 innings in a 5-3 victory over Tampa Bay on Saturday. Matusz struggled in his lone career outing versus the Royals, allowing five runs in 3 1/3 innings in a no-decision.

After two dismal outings, Hochevar authored his best of the season Saturday by scattering three hits over seven innings in a 5-0 triumph over the Chicago White Sox. The top overall pick of the 2006 draft, Hochevar is 1-4 with a gaudy 6.63 career ERA versus the Orioles. Hochevar has struggled at home, going 0-2 with an 11.91 ERA.

2. Jones may have struggled prior to Wednesday’s homer – he was 0-for-6 prior to the blast – but has fared well versus Hochevar. Jones is 6-for-15 with three doubles.

3. Royals second baseman Chris Getz suffered a bruised left rib after colliding with Chris Davis during the fifth inning. Rookie Irving Falu will likely receive the start on Thursday.

Nolasco is stuck on 68 wins and tied with Dontrelle Willis for the franchise lead after a disastrous start Saturday against the Mets. He allowed six runs on nine hits, walked three and hit two batters in 4 2/3 innings to suffer his first loss of the season. Nolasco is 5-7 with a 4.80 ERA in 20 games against the Braves, including a 3-3 mark and 4.91 ERA in 10 starts at Turner Field.

Beachy posted his sixth consecutive quality start Saturday at St. Louis, holding the Cardinals to one run on two hits over six innings and matching a season high with six strikeouts. Beachy has not allowed more than two earned runs in any of his seven starts this season. He is 1-0 with a 4.01 ERA in four starts against the Marlins.

MLB Baseball Gambling – Chicago White Sox vs Los Angeles Angels

With a forecast of mostly sunny skies and a zero chance of precipitation for Thursday afternoon’s series finale between the Chicago White Sox and Angels in Anaheim, C.J. Wilson will deal only with Chicago’s lineup and not Mother Nature. The Angels left-hander faced five batters before Friday’s game in Texas was delayed two hours because of rain. He didn’t return and started Saturday’s game instead.

The Los Angeles Angels had an occurrence almost as rare as rain in Southern California on Wednesday when Albert Pujols homered. His second blast of the season helped the Angels to a 7-2 victory in the series opener. Los Angeles and Chicago are 17-21 and third in their respective divisions. The Angels will try for their second three-game winning streak of the season when they take on the White Sox’ Chris Sale, who is back in the rotation after an appearance as a closer.

PITCHING MATCHUP:
 White Sox LH Chris Sale (3-2, 3.08 ERA) vs. Angels LH C.J. Wilson (4-3, 3.42)

Sale allowed three runs and seven hits in five innings in last outing, a 5-0 loss to Kansas City on Saturday. Sale, 23, could have been a bit out of sorts after blowing a save in Chicago’s 5-3 victory at Cleveland on May 8 and talking his way back into the rotation. He has a 1.13 WHIP and 33 strikeouts against only 11 walks in 38 innings. Sale is 2-0 with a 2.45 ERA on the road.

Wilson allowed two runs and five hits in 5 2/3 innings and didn’t receive a decision in Los Angeles’ 4-2 victory Saturday. Wilson, though, was charged with four runs in one-third of an inning and took the loss in Friday’s 10-3 setback. He is 3-0 with a 2.92 ERA in 12 lifetime appearances against Chicago, including 2-0 in two starts. The White Sox’ roster is batting .250 against him, with 11 strikeouts and no home runs in 48 at-bats.

Bet on MLB – Houston Astros at Milwaukee Brewers

After failing to score more than three runs in nine consecutive games, the Houston Astros broke out of their offensive doldrums Wednesday. The Astros had only eight hits but made them count in an 8-3 rout of the visiting Milwaukee Brewers. Carlos Lee had his fourth consecutive multi-hit game and extended his hitting streak to five games for Houston, which goes for a two-game sweep Thursday. Among Lee’s three hits was his third homer of the season, ending a drought that lasted more than three weeks and 69 at-bats.

The Brewers continued to struggle on the road, falling to 7-12 away from Miller Park. Milwaukee has been feast or famine on offense in its 14 games this month.

Marcum ended a string of four straight no-decisions with his best start of the year last time out. He limited the Chicago Cubs to one run and three hits in seven innings and retired 16 of the final 18 batters. He was tagged for four runs and eight hits in five innings by the Astros last month, but did not factor in the decision. Marcum is 2-0 with a 2.52 ERA in four starts versus Houston.

Happ has lost his last two starts and surrendered two home runs in each. He squared off against Marcum last month and also did not figure in the decision, allowing four runs in five innings. Happ struck out a season-high eight in that game but was taken deep by Travis Ishikawa and Ryan Braun, the seventh and eighth homers he’s allowed in only 39 1/3 innings.
