Double Plays Adds Halladay At Spot

Baseball Betting Lines

Matt Thornton retired all six batters he faced to pick up his third save of the season.

 

Cubs manager Mike Quade was ejected by second base umpire Paul Emmel arguing one of those double plays. That came in the second inning when Quade argued second baseman Gordon Beckham didn't touch the base before a relay throw to first.

 

Gavin Floyd toes the rubber today for the White Sox, aiming to stop a four- start winless stretch. The right-hander limited the Rockies to six hits and a pair of runs over seven innings in a no-decision. His last victory came June 1 at Boston.

 

The home team sends Rodrigo Lopez to the hill in his third start of 2011. The righty threw 4 2/3 innings on Tuesday against the Giants, but suffered the loss after yielding eight hits and four runs -- one earned. In two starts this season, he is 0-1 with a 6.75 ERA compared to a 4.00 ERA in nine relief appearances.

 

Lopez is 2-2 with an 8.04 ERA in nine games (five starts) against the Southsiders.

 

(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Approaching a couple of team records, Cliff Lee aims to continue his shutout streak this afternoon when he takes the mound for the Phillies, hoping to help his team to a three-game sweep in Toronto. Already the first Phillie to throw three consecutive shutouts since Robin Roberts in 1950, the crafty lefty can tie the Phillies record today. Grover Alexander threw four consecutive shutouts during the 1911 season. Lee's 32 straight shutout innings are already fifth-best in club history.

 

Opposing offenses have struggled to find hits against Lee. He's thrown two-hit shutouts in two of the last three games, those coming against Boston on Tuesday and vs. Florida on June 16. In between those, he limited St. Louis to six hits in another shutout.

 

Roy Halladay beat his former team on Saturday in Philadelphia's 5-3 win. Chase Utley hit the go-ahead two-run homer in the seventh inning.

 

After spending his first dozen big league seasons in Toronto, Halladay was dealt to the Phillies in December 2009, and in his first game back the crowd of 44,078 gave the two-time Cy Young Award winner a standing ovation.
