Brewers' Bush takes on Pirates at Miller ParkBaseball Betting Lines08/29/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Pittsburgh native Dave Bush faces his hometown team for the 16th time today, when the Milwaukee Brewers close out a three-game weekend set with the visiting Pirates at Miller Park. A 30-year-old product of Wake Forest, Bush is 5-5 in his previous encounters with the Pirates, including an 11-9 loss at Pittsburgh on July 20 in which he was touched for nine hits and 10 runs across just four innings. In 84 career innings against them, he's allowed 83 hits and 51 runs. Bush has gone 2-3 with a no-decision in six subsequent starts, including a 5-3 loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers in his last outing on Aug. 24. He is 3-6 in Milwaukee this season with a 4.84 earned run average. Pittsburgh counters with righty Charlie Morton, who returns to the majors for the first time since late May. The 26-year-old was a third-round draft choice of the Atlanta Braves in 2002 and reached the majors in 2008. He won four games in 16 appearances with Atlanta that season before coming to the Pirates in a trade and going 5-9 in 18 starts in 2009. Morton began this season with Pittsburgh and won just once in 10 starts before heading to Triple-A Indianapolis with a 9.35 ERA in 43 1/3 innings. The recall came after right-handed starter Ross Ohlendorf was placed on the 15-day disabled list with a damaged muscle behind his shoulder. He was removed after eight pitches of Monday's start against St. Louis. Morton is winless in six road starts this season and is 0-3 in three career meetings with Milwaukee, including an 8-1 loss to the Brewers in Pittsburgh on April 20. On Saturday, Lorenzo Cain's RBI single in the 11th inning lifted the Brewers to an 8-7 win. With Wilfredo Ledezma (0-1) on the mound, Ryan Braun singled to start the frame and moved to second when Prince Fielder reached base on a Neil Walker error. After Casey McGehee flied out, Cain punched a single to left to score Braun for the win. Fielder clubbed two home runs, while Braun added two hits and scored twice for the Brewers, who have taken the first two games of this series and are 12-5 against the Buccos this season. Chris Capuano lasted just three innings in the start and was reached for six runs on six hits with three walks. Six Milwaukee relievers combined to pitch the remaining eight innings and gave up just one run on five hits with Kameron Loe (3-3) getting the win. Chris Snyder hit a three-run home run, while Jose Tabata and Walker each added a solo shot for the Pirates, who have lost eight of their last 11. Zach Duke went 5 1/3 innings and was charged with four runs on nine hits.

Academy Award Betting Odds for Best Picture Offer Great Value If there is any category that is not an obvious win for any one nominee in this year's Academy Awards, it would be for Best Picture. Sure the Departed is a 5/7 favorite, but that's hardly anything when we look at Helen Mirren and her "out-of-reach" 1 to 40 odds (which means you would win a whopping $1 for every $40 bet). For value, take a look at MySportsbook.com Oscars betting odds on my personal favorite, The Queen - a remarkable 12 to 1 long shot. The film hasn't won any pre-awards for Best Picture (compared to The Departed and Little Miss Sunshine), but there is a tremendous following and it is a strong enough film to warrant a surprise win. TV Guide advises Oscar watchers should be cautioned not to discount the drama "Babel" with its strong social themes about overcoming communication gaps among people of different cultures. Who is to say independently produced Little Miss Sunshine won't be this year's Crash. Last year, Crash won for Best Motion Picture, shocking those who bet on gay cowboy flick, Brokeback Mountain, as the favorite to win.
