Armadillo: Saturday's six-pack

Six NFL teams who will travel the most miles this coming season.........

Arizona Cardinals-- 23,652

San Diego Chargers-- 24,274

Seattle Seahawks-- 25,086

Oakland Raiders-- 26,336

Miami Dolphins-- 26,452

San Francisco 49ers-- 27,998

**********

Armadillo: Saturday's List of 13: Clearing out a cluttered mind......

13) Bad news for the Washington Nationals, as Stephen Strasburg left Friday's game after five batters with a sore shoulder. He was having a dismal season as rumors swirled that he was having arm problems.

12) Dodgers have now been shut out in their last four road games.

11) Marlins are having a cruddy season, but they're 5-1 against Matt Harvey since he came to the major leagues.

10) If the Cubs wind up missing the playoffs by a game, that two weeks they kept Kris Bryant in AAA in April is going to look like a disaster- he is really good. Hopefully no one on this planet believes they sent him to AAA for more seasoning- thats just a blatant lie.

9) Josh Hamilton homered twice off a knuckleball pitcher Friday nite, his first multiple-HR game since July 2013.

8) Astros' pitcher Scott Feldman had knee surgery, will be replaced in the Houston rotation by Brett Oberholtzer. Houston still has a 5-game lead in the AL West, but the Mariners are starting to play better.

7) Cincinnati Reds' AA farm club in the Southern League are the Pensacola Blue Yahoos, thats an interesting name for a team.

6) Reds scored in first inning in 12 of 22 home games, but only four of 25 away games; not sure why that would be.

5) Phillies are 11-10 when Hamels or Harang pitch, 8-21 in the other games.

4) Ray Rice isn't being blackballed; its just that his last year in the NFL wasn't productive enough to merit the firestorm that signing him would cause. As I once said to a kid I was coaching, who was a marginal player and a bigtime annoyance "You ain't good enough to act like this".

3) Best wishes to Old Dominion hoop coach Jeff Jones, who had surgery for prostate cancer this week; we obviously hope he has a speedy recovery.

2) Chicago Bulls still owe Tom Thibodeau $9M over the next two years; I wish someone hated me enough to pay me $9M to go away.

1) Orlando Magic hired Scott Skiles as head coach; he has a career record of 443-433 in 13 seasons with three different teams.

MLB betting cheat sheet: Strasburg enduring stretch of futility
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here's a comprehensive look at betting notes for this weekend’s major-league schedule:

What’s wrong with Strasburg?

Stephen Strasburg of the Washington Nationals is 3-5 with a 6.50 ERA this season. He has turned in only one quality start (back on April 19) and has lasted more than 5.1 innings only twice. Strasburg will get another shot on Friday at the Cincinnati Reds. The over is 5-1 in Strasburg’s last six starts overall and 5-0 in his last five road starts.

Break up the Twins!

The Minnesota Twins are on an American League-best current winning streak of five games and have surged into a tie for first with the Kansas City Royals in the AL Central. Minnesota has scored 23 runs in its last four contests (3-1 O/U).

Juan gone

The Los Angeles Dodgers shipped veteran third baseman Juan Uribe to the Atlanta on Wednesday. Actually, with the Braves already in town for a three-game series, he was simply shipped across the infield to the other dugout. Uribe (.238, 1 HR, 6 RBI) went 0-for-3 in his debut on Wednesday. Fellow third baseman Chris Johnson was activated from the disabled list on Wednesday and some kind of platoon is expected.

Pitching Notes

* Outside of maybe the Dodgers’ Zack Greinke, no National League pitcher has been as consistently dominant as Pittsburgh Pirates’ starter A.J. Burnett. The 38-year-old is 4-1 with a 1.37 ERA and has turned in eight consecutive quality starts. He will get the nod again on Thursday night at the San Diego Padres. The Pirates are 6-0 in their last six overall and the under is 8-2 in their last 10 road games.

* Jeremy Guthrie of the Royals is coming off a miserable performance in which he gave up 11 runs on nine hits, three walks, and four homers in just one inning of a 14-1 loss at the New York Yankees on Monday. Guthrie, whose next start will come at the Chicago Cubs on Sunday afternoon, has an 8.17 ERA on the road in 2015 (thanks mainly to the aforementioned outing). He is sporting a 9.78 ERA in day games.

Hitting Notes

* Nobody is hotter at the moment than Texas Rangers’ first baseman Prince Fielder (.368, 10 HR, 38 RBI). He is on a six-game hitting streak with 15 hits, five home runs, and 15 RBIs in those five. Fielder has hit safely in 15 of his last 16 games and in 24 of his last 26 outings. He is batting .396 in May with nine dingers and 28 RBIs. The Rangers have won seven of their last eight games.

* The Milwaukee Brewers are the worst team in baseball with a winning percentage of .333 (16-32). They have lost five games in a row and have scored a total of 11 runs in those games. Three everyday players (Carlos Gomez, Aramis Ramirez, and Luis Sardinas) are hitting worse than .190 over the past seven days.

Totals Streak

Miami Marlins (25-21-2 O/U): The Marlins may go over the total more often than not, but the under has been dominant of late. It is 5-0 in Miami’s last five overall and 9-2 in the team’s last 11 games. The fish crossed the plate a total of five times in this week’s three-game sweep at the hands of the Pittsburgh Pirates. They have scored more than two runs only once in their last five outings.

Weather Note

* According to forecasts, wind will be blowing in from right field at 11 miles per hour in Arlington when the Texas Rangers host the Boston Red Sox Thursday.

Injury Notes

* The Cincinnati Reds’ pitching staff is banged up, to the extent that manager Bryan Price has no idea who is going to take the mound on Sunday against Washington. Johnny Cueto (elbow) and Jason Marquis (unspecified) are both in the mix. Marquis’ ERA (6.46) more than doubles that of Cueto (3.03).

* Toronto Blue Jays’ designated hitter Jose Bautista (.230, 7 HR, 30 RBI) is back after missing two games with a shoulder injury. The 34-year-old wasted no time producing, as he went 3-for-4 with three doubles and five RBIs in a 10-9 win over the Chicago White Sox on Tuesday.

MLB

Saturday, May 30

Inclement weather heading for Wrigley Field

Mother Nature could have a big impact on Saturday's Windy City matchup between the Kansas City Royals and Chicago Cubs.

At gametime, there is a 78 percent chance of precipitation with thunderstorms expected to hit the Chicago area. Gusts of 30 mph are expected to be blowing into home plate from left field.

Books have the Royals and Cubs both priced at -104 with a current total of 6.5.

MLB roundup: Cards win as Lackey masters Dodgers

ST. LOUIS -- John Lackey tossed seven scoreless innings and fanned nine as St. Louis beat Los Angeles 3-0 shutout at sold-out Busch Stadium.

Throwing 66 of his 96 pitches for strikes, Lackey gave up only five hits and one walk.

Suffering their fourth straight road shutout, the Dodgers appeared to get more frustrated with the strike zone of plate umpire Mike Winters as the night progressed.

It boiled over in the seventh. Manager Don Mattingly was booted after Andre Ethier took a third strike and A.J. Ellis was kicked out.

Rangers 7, Red Sox 4

ARLINGTON, Texas — Josh Hamilton, the former American League MVP who helped the Texas Rangers make back-to-back World Series appearances in 2010 and 2011, but left after the 2012 season for a richer contract with the Los Angeles Angels, hit two home runs to pace Texas over Boston.

His line-drive shot in the fourth off knuckleball-throwing Red Sox starter Steven Wright, was almost an identical rocket to the one he put in the seats in his first at-bat.

Yovani Gallardo pitched six strong innings to earn the win, holding the Red Sox to four hits while walking three and striking out five. Gallardo surrendered three or fewer runs for the ninth time in his last 10 starts.

Reds 5, Nationals 2

CINCINNATI -- Todd Frazier belted his 15th homer, Joey Votto also homered, and rookie Anthony DeSclafani pitched six solid innings lifting Cincinnati past Washington.

Nationals starter Stephen Strasburg left the game in the second inning with an undisclosed injury and was replaced by Taylor Jordan, who allowed three runs on six hits in 4 2/3 innings.

There was no immediate word on Strasburg’s condition. Earlier Friday the Nationals learned that left-fielder Jayson Werth will be out indefinitely with a fractured wrist.

Marlins, 4, Mets 3

NEW YORK -- Justin Bour hit a three-run homer in the fourth inning and Dan Haren threw seven solid innings as Miami beat New York.

The Marlins snapped a three-game losing streak and improved to 3-8 since general manager Dan Jennings took over as manager. The Mets had their three-game winning streak ended.

The Marlins bunched their rallies against Matt Harvey and Carlos Torres, who combined to allow just seven runners. But six reached base against Harvey in the fourth and fifth, when Miami scored its lone runs.

Rockies 4, Phillies 1

PHILADELPHIA -- Chad Bettis combined with John Axford on a two-hitter as Colorado beat Philadelphia.

The 26-year-old Bettis, making just his fourth start since his recall from the minors on May 14, had a perfect game through six innings and a no-hitter through 7 1/3. Cody Asche broke it up by grounding a single to left field.

Bettis was bidding for just the second no-hitter in Rockies history. Ubaldo Jimenez remains the only Colorado pitcher with a no-no, beating Atlanta 4-0 on April 17, 2010.

Royals 8, Cubs 4

CHICAGO -- Lorenzo Cain went 3-for-4, including an eighth-inning RBI double for the go-ahead run, and Kansas City snapped a four-game losing streak.

Cain's double against Pedro Strop scored Mike Moustakas for a 5-4 lead. Kansas City added two more runs in a three-run eighth and a run in the ninth.

The Royals, making their first visit to Wrigley Field since 2001, used three solo home runs to help build an early lead before the Cubs replied with their own long-ball attack to forge a 4-4 tie.

Orioles 2, Rays 1

BALTIMORE -- J.J. Hardy singled with two outs in the bottom of the ninth inning to lift Baltimore over Tampa Bay.

The Rays have lost six straight games and continued to struggle on offense, as they have most of the season, but nearly put together a winning rally in the ninth against Darren O'Day.

Tampa Bay loaded the bases with no outs before O'Day rebounded to strike out two and get Jake Elmore to ground into an inning-ending force play.

Blue Jays 6, Twins 4

MINNEAPOLIS -- Chris Colabello's two-run homer with no outs in the top of the ninth inning broke a tie and Toronto posted the win over Minnesota.

The loss snapped a five-game winning streak for Minnesota, which entered the day tied atop the American League Central standings.

Colabello's homer came on a first-pitch fastball from Twins closer Glen Perkins, who walked Russell Martin. For Colabello, who was waived by the Twins last winter before being claimed by Toronto, the home run was his fourth of the year.

Diamondbacks 7, Brewers 5

MILWAUKEE -- Nick Ahmed's eighth-inning home run snapped a tie game and gave Arizona the win over Milwaukee.

Ahmed's homer, off Jonathan Broxton was his third of the season and one of four hit Friday by the Diamondbacks, who came into the game with at least one homer in each of their last six games.

Brad Ziegler gave up a run but recorded his third save of the season.

White Sox 6, Astros 3 (11 innings)

HOUSTON -- Geovany Soto cranked a two-run, tie-breaking double to right field in the top of the 11th inning as Chicago claimed the opener of its three-game series with Houston at Minute Maid Park.

Soto, who entered in the eighth inning as a defensive replacement behind the plate, drove home Carlos Sanchez and Adam Eaton with his extra-base hit off Astros left-hander Tony Sipp.

Four White Sox relievers combined to work five scoreless innings, with left-hander Dan Jennings (1-1) earning the win and right-hander David Robertson notching his 10th save. Houston, conversely, needed seven relievers after starter Lance McCullers departed in the fifth inning.

Mariners 2, Indians 1

SEATTLE -- Seattle rookie Taijuan Walker baffled Cleveland while leading the Mariners to a win.

Walker (2-5) pitched eight scoreless innings, allowing just two hits, and he got all the offense he needed on Seth Smith's two-run homer in the sixth. Walker matched a career high with eight strikeouts, without walking a single batter, while his eight innings equaled the longest outing of his 21 career starts.

Closer Fernando Rodney came on in the ninth and retired the first two batters before a walk and an RBI triple from pinch hitter Ryan Raburn made things interesting. After a mound visit from manager Lloyd McClendon, Rodney got Michael Brantley to pop out to earn his 14th save of the season.

Athletics 6, Yankees 2

OAKLAND, Calif. -- Right-hander Sonny Gray threw eight strong innings, Brett Lawrie hit a two-run homer and Oakland defeated New York at the O.co Coliseum, winning back-to-back home games for the first time this season.

The A's have won 16 of their past 21 games against the Yankees overall and 11 of their past 12 meetings in Oakland.

Gray (6-2), who owns the American League's lowest ERA at 1.82, allowed two runs on four hits. He struck out five and walked two.

Angels 2, Tigers 0

ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Hector Santiago allowed just three singles over 7 1/3 scoreless innings, leading Los Angeles to a shutout win over Detroit at Angel Stadium.

Santiago did need some help from his bullpen, and got it. Huston Street entered the game in the eighth inning with two outs and the bases loaded, but struck out Yoenis Cespedes to end the inning Street then pitched a scoreless ninth to finish it off for his 15th save.

It marked the seventh time in 10 starts this season that Santiago yielded one earned run or less, but the first time he pitched into the eighth inning.

Giants 4, Braves 2

SAN FRANCISCO -- Veteran Tim Hudson beat Atlanta for the first time in his career, outdueling young right-hander Mike Foltynewicz in San Francisco's victory.

Buster Posey drove in three runs with a home run and a double, providing all the offense Hudson and two relievers would need to pitch the Giants into first place in the National League West with a sixth consecutive home win.

Hudson, a nine-year employee of the Braves from 2005-2013, allowed one run on five hits in seven innings in his second-ever start against Atlanta. The 39-year-old has now beaten 29 of the 30 major league teams -- all but the club that initially drafted him in 1997, the Oakland Athletics.

Padres 6, Pirates 2

SAN DIEGO -- Derek Norris, who struck out in his first four at-bats, hit a two-out, walk-off grand slam to give San Diego a win over Pittsburgh at Petco Park -- ending the Pirates' seven-game winning streak.

It was the Padres' first walk-off win of the season.

Jedd Gyorko drew a walk from Pirates right-handed reliever Rob Scahill to open the ninth. Abraham Almonte bunted to Scahill, who fielded the ball but threw wild to first, allowing Gyorko to reach third and Almonte second with no one out. Scahill walked Cory Spangenberg to load the bases with none out.

But the Pirates, deploying a six-man infield, got two straight forceouts at home before Norris hit his fourth homer of the season to left-center off Scahill.
