White Sox Pitcher Buehrle Tosses Perfect Game

Posted in MLB Baseball  by Sportsbook Bonus on July 30th, 2009

Mark Buehrle pitched the first perfect game in the major leagues in five years Thursday and Chicago White Sox center fielder DeWayne Wise got the assist.

Buehrle got a great catch from center fielder Wise leading off the ninth inning to save the bid - and the 5-0 shutout of the Tampa Bay Rays.

“I was hoping it was staying in there, give him enough room to catch it. I know the guys were doing everything they could to save the no-hitter, the perfect game, whatever it might be,” Buehrle said.

The left-hander has now become only the second pitcher to throw two no-hitters for the White Sox: Frank Smith did it against Detroit in 1905 and the Philadelphia Athletics in 1908. The only previous perfect game for the White Sox was by Charles Robertson at Detroit on April 30, 1922.

Pete Rose could be reinstated into baseball, Bud Selig is considering, and the Hall of Fame could be next.Hank Aaron said the following of Pete Rose:

“I would certainly like to see him in. He belongs in, really. His career is one that he needs to be right here in the middle of all of this.”

Selig has already said earlier this month he would agree to review the matter:

“I agreed to review this matter. I would remind you that Pete voluntarily accepted a lifetime suspension from Commissioner Bart Giamatti, and since I am the judge in this case, I think it’s inappropriate for me to comment. He has a right to ask for it to be reviewed, if there’s any new evidence, and we certainly have done that and will do that.”

Football Betting Tips

Posted in Sportsbook Betting Tips  by Sportsbook Bonus on July 7th, 2009

Football betting is less of a gamble than other types of sports betting. It’s easier to call because the bettor has an opportunity to gauge the quality of each and every team. That being said, there are some football betting tips that can help you get the most out of the week’s games. While no betting system is foolproof, these football betting tips will help you come out ahead.

First, don’t get greedy. Gamblers all want to win big, but don’t go overboard. So long as you get a series of wins, you should come out ahead. It’s recommended that you put smaller bets on a wider variety of games, rather than put one huge bet on a single game-unless you think the game is a lock. Unfortunately, the spread set by odds makers for any game is rarely a lock. Keep up to date on all the latest football odds.

There is one major misconception about football betting odds-that they closely predict the outcome of the game. Football betting odds are actually designed to bring in the largest number of bets. So one person will see the spread on a game and what to go with the favorite and another will bet the spread of the loss. While football betting odds will give a sense of which team is more likely to win the game, the line won’t necessarily predict the final score.
