Baseball Betting Lines
08/11/2010 -
Cleveland, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Brad Bergesen gave up just one run on two
hits en route to the second complete game of his young career, as the
Baltimore Orioles took down the Cleveland Indians, 3-1, in the second test of
a three-game set from Progressive Field.
Bergesen (4-9) struck out four and walked two to record his first complete
game since June 14, 2009 versus Atlanta. The 24-year-old snapped a career-long
seven-game losing streak with Wednesday's performance. It was his first win
since beating Seattle on May 12.
Brian Roberts went 3-for-4 with a solo homer for the Orioles, who are 8-1
since Buck Showalter took over as manager. Luke Scott and Cesar Izturis each
drove in a run.
Josh Tomlin (1-2), making his fourth career start in the big leagues, lasted
just five frames, allowing three runs -- two earned -- on 10 hits for the
Indians, who have lost four in a row.
Luis Valbuena knocked in the lone run for Cleveland, but failed to record
an extra-base hit for the first time since June 2 at Detroit, a span of 62
game. It was the longest streak in the majors this year.
The Orioles got on the board in the first. Nick Markakis reached base when he
grounded into a fielder's choice and Ty Wigginton singled. Both runners
advanced one base on a passed ball. Scott plated a run when he grounded
out.
Baltimore added another run in the fourth to make it 2-0. With two outs, Felix
Pie singled and Matt Wieters walked. Izturis then hit an RBI single.
Roberts led off the top of the fifth with a homer to right. Scott hit a two-
out single later in the frame. He tried to score on Adam Jones' double, but
was thrown out at the plate to keep it a three-run game.
The Indians got their first hit of the contest in the home fifth. Shelley
Duncan walked, moved to second on Jordan Brown's groundout, and crossed the
plate on Valbuena's two-out single to right.
Asdrubal Cabrera hit a two-out single in the ninth for Cleveland's second hit
of the night.
