Armadillo: Tuesday's six-pack

-- Actor James Woods finished 7th in a No-Limit Shootout at the World Series of Poker, cashed for $28,832.

-- Lot of rain in the east Monday; doubleheader in Washington Tuesday, Boston on Wednesday- there's also a twinbill in Denver today.

-- Arizona loses catcher Tuffy Gosewich (knee) for the season.

-- UAB is re-instituting football for the 2016 season, which saves its basketball team from being banished from Conference USA.

-- Over 1,800 media credentials have been issued for the NBA Finals.

-- Bulls will announce Iowa State coach Fred Hoiberg as its new coach today; back in 1998, the Bulls hired another coach from Iowa State. Tim Floyd went 49-190 in the post-Jordan era. Hoiberg will fare much better.

Armadillo: Tuesday's List of 13: Nobody asked me, but.......

13) If Major League Baseball ever shortens its season from 162 to 154 games, it'll be for one reason and one reason only; to keep the World Series out of November. Giving up a week of regular season games would be very expensive; its a bad idea.

12) Rice beat crosstown rival Houston in 20 innings Monday, eliminating Cougars from the NCAA tournament. One of Houston's pitchers threw 137 pitches in the game, two years after the kid had Tommy John surgery. Most pitches thrown in any major league this season is 125 (Johnny Cueto). Major leaguers get paid millions and they get protected better than college kids-- go figure.

11) College baseball teams bunt too much; UCLA had its cleanup hitter sacrifice in a game Sunday night. College baseball is played a lot differently than pro ball.

10) The son of former NFL QB Steve Bono and Reggie Miller's nephew both play for UCLA, which got eliminated by Maryland last night. Terrapins now play Virginia in a battle of old ACC rivals this weekend.

9) Maryland wears white caps with a dark brim; no major league team wears white caps, not even sure if they're allowed to. Cincinnati had white caps with pinstripes in the 90's, but didn't wear them for long.

8) Barry Zito has thrown 14 consecutive scoreless innings in AAA; we'll be seeing him in the big leagues again later this summer, hopefully not for the A's.

7) A 92-year old woman ran a marathon in San Diego Sunday. 92 freakin' years old.

6) Former NFL head coach Mike Sherman, who coached Texas A&M for a while in addition to coaching the Packers, will be a high school coach at Nauset Regional HS in Massachusetts this fall. He must have saved a lot of money.

5) Game 1 winner is 48-20 in NBA Finals series; Lebron James' teams are 0-3 when they play Game 1 on the road.

4) Average major league attendance this year: 29,302, up 153 people a game from LY. Highest the average has ever been thru May was 2008 (30,063).

3) Kansas City's home attendance is up 55.9% this year, Seattle's 33.8%. Tampa Bay's attendance is down 22.4%, Atlanta's is down 17.5%.

2) St Louis Blues have never won the Stanley Cup but by my count, they've had six different head coaches who won a Cup for a different team:
-- Scotty Bowman, won nine Cups for three other teams
-- Joel Quenneville, who twice with Chicago
-- Al Arbour, won four Cups with the Islanders
-- Mike Keenan, won the Cup with the Rangers in 1994.
-- Jacques Demers, who won the Cup with Montreal in '93.
-- Ken Hitchcock won a Stanley Cup with Dallas in 1999.

1) Someone please explain to me why 71-year old John Kerry is riding a bicycle in France? He gets in an accident, breaks his thighbone (it is really hard to break your thighbone) and can't complete the assignment our tax dollars are paying him to do. To paraphrase Vince Lombardi in NFL Films, "What the hell is going on out there???"

After red-hot April, Over bettors cooled off in May

April was an extremely profitable month for baseball Over bettors, but that trend quickly halted itself in May.

The Over went a sizzling 172-136 in April before going just 192-217 in the month of May.

Oakland ranks as the top Over play in the MLB, evidenced by it cashing in 32 out of its first 50 games.

MLB roundup: Pineda, Yankees top Mariners

SEATTLE -- On a night when his one-time mentor was struggling through one of the worst outings of his career, Michael Pineda was making a triumphant return.

The New York Yankees' 26-year-old starting pitcher went back to Safeco Field, the ballpark where he started his major league career, and he outdueled former teammate Felix Hernandez on the way to a 7-2 win over the Seattle Mariners.

Pineda (7-2) allowed two earned runs over six innings, while Hernandez (8-2) turned in his worst start of the season and one of the most forgettable of his 10-year career. Hernandez, 29, allowed season highs of seven earned runs and five walks in 4 2/3 innings.

Pineda, meanwhile, was nearly flawless for six innings before the Mariners finally got to him in the seventh. A Mark Teixeira grand slam in the fifth inning helped give the Yankees a 7-0 lead, and Pineda wound up allowing two runs on seven hits in six-plus innings. Pineda struck out nine and walked two.

Cubs 5, Marlins 1

MIAMI -- Jason Hammel set a career high with 11 strikeouts, leading Chicago past Miami.

Hammel (4-2) allowed five hits, no walks and one run in 6 2/3 innings, lowering his ERA to 2.82. All 11 strikeouts were swinging.

The Cubs used a balanced attack on offense with eight different players getting a hit. The most impressive of those hits was a solo home run in the eighth inning by Starlin Castro, who pulled it to left for his fourth long ball of the season.

Astros 5, Orioles 2

HOUSTON -- Evan Gattis capped a four-run rally with a two-run, two-out single in the seventh inning as Houston bounced back to beat Baltimore.

Having scuffled for most of the night against Orioles right-hander Ubaldo Jimenez, the Astros recovered in the seventh, starting with a leadoff double by Chris Carter. Houston added three more hits against two Baltimore relievers, with Gattis' opposite-field hit to right field coming off right-hander Tommy Hunter.

The Astros loaded the bases against Brad Brach (3-1) before George Springer added a run-scoring single to center on a 3-0 pitch and Jose Altuve chipped in a sacrifice fly.

Brewers 1, Cardinals 0

ST. LOUIS -- Mike Fiers worked six scoreless innings as Milwaukee made a first-inning run stand up for a win over St. Louis.

Fiers (2-5) gave up four hits, walked two and struck out six. A bullpen that worked a staggering 13 1/3 innings in Sunday's 7-6, 17-inning win over Arizona got the last nine outs, with Francisco Rodriguez pitching the ninth to earn his ninth save.

Jaime Garcia (1-2) was a tough-luck loser, allowing only three hits and a run in seven innings with no walks and four strikeouts. It was only the seventh loss in 27 home games for St. Louis.

Dodgers 11, Rockies 4

DENVER -- Clayton Kershaw baffled the Rockies and aided his own cause with the first three-hit game of his career, leading Los Angeles past Colorado.

Andre Ethier and Jimmy Rollins hit solo homers for the Dodgers in the second inning. Joc Pederson hit a three-run shot in the sixth, when the Dodgers sent 12 batters to the plate and broke open a 2-2 game with a six-run uprising that matched their highest-scoring inning of the season.

Los Angeles' Howie Kendrick hit a three-run homer in the eighth to give him four RBIs. Adrian Gonzalez went 4-for-4, and everybody in the Dodgers' starting lineup had at least one hit in the team's 18-hit attack.

Braves 8, Diamondbacks 1

PHOENIX -- Freddie Freeman homered and drove in three runs to support Alex Wood's stellar eight innings, and Atlanta cruised past Arizona.

Freeman's seventh home run and second as many games gave the Braves a 5-0 lead in the fifth inning. The first baseman added an RBI single in the sixth inning to make it 7-1.

That was more than enough for Wood, who allowed one run on seven hits over eight innings. Wood (4-2) struck out four, and he did not walk a batter for the first time since Aug. 31. The left-hander also hit a two-run single that opened the scoring. Wood has allowed a total of three earned runs and four runs overall in his past three starts.

Mets 7, Padres 0

SAN DIEGO -- Jacob deGrom pitched eight scoreless innings as New York breezed past San Diego.

DeGrom (6-4) gave up just two hits and struck out eight. He didn't walk a batter in snapping the Mets' seven-game road losing streak. Sean Gilmartin pitched the ninth to give deGrom his first road win in four decisions this season.

The Padres' Andrew Cashner (2-8) lasted just 4 2/3 innings, charged with six runs (five earned) on a career-high 11 hits. He also struck out a career-high 12 batters.

Pirates 4, Giants 3

SAN FRANCISCO -- Gerrit Cole became the third eight-game winner in the major leagues as Pittsburgh beat San Francisco.

Neil Walker broke a 2-2 tie with a two-run double in a three-run fifth inning as the Pirates prevailed in a rematch of last year's National League wild-card game.

Cole (8-2) gave up two unearned runs in the first inning and then shut out the Giants over the next six, allowing five hits in his seven innings. He walked two and struck out nine. Mark Melancon pitched a perfect ninth for his 14th save.

Angels 7, Rays 3

ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Albert Pujols hit two home runs, and Mike Trout and David Freese also went deep, lifting Los Angeles to its fifth win in a row.

The winning streak is the longest of the season for the Angels, who are a season-best four games over .500 at 28-24. The four homers continued the team's recent power surge: Los Angeles has 13 home runs in its past five games.

Pujols is leading the way, with five homers in those five games, increasing his season total to 13. The first baseman is tied with center fielder Trout for the team lead.

Oddsmakers have set the Nats as -159 moneyline faves for the tilt.

Cardinals go under for fifth straight game

The under is also 9-1-1 in the Cardinals last 11 games overall, making them the best under play in baseball at 19-30-2 over/under for the season.

This is thanks to the Cardinals major league leading team ERA of of 2.70, while scoring a middling 4.10 runs per game.

Tuesday, June 2

Small chance of rain in Washington Tuesday

According to weather forecasts, there is a 35 percent chance of rain in D.C. as the Washington Nationals host the Toronto Blue Jays in the opener of a doubleheader Tuesday.

Furthermore, the opener looks to be played under overcast skies with wind blowing in from centerfield at around nine miles per hour.

The two clubs were scheduled to meet Monday evening but that game was postponed due to rain, forcing the teams into the double bill.

Cueto has historically not fared well vs. Phillies

The Cincinnati Reds have simply not been getting the job done for their bettors against the Philadelphia Phillies behind Johnny Cueto.

Cincy is 1-5 in Cueto's last six outings versus the Phils, a trend they'll seek to buck Tuesday when he gets the ball in the City of Brotherly Love.

Philly is slated to counter with Sean O'Sullivan. Sportsbooks are dealing the Reds in the -160 ballpark with a total of 7.

Braves' Miller has been a boon for Under bettors

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Shelby Miller has had a remarkable start to the regular season, which means bettors banking on low-scoring affairs have been reaping the rewards.

Miller (5-2, 1.48 ERA) has cashed the Under in eight out of his 10 outings so far. The only hurler posting better numbers in that category is Jake Odorizzi of the Tampa Bay Rays (2-9 Over/Under).

The Braves are scheduled to send Miller to the mound once again Tuesday against Josh Collmenter and the Arizona Diamondbacks. Oddsmakers have tabbed the matchup with a total of 8.5.

Buchholz costing MLB bettors the most

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Clay Buchholz heads in Monday's action as the worst money pitcher in the bigs, costing bettors $-825 in 10 starts this season. The Sox have gone 2-10 in those Buchholz's starts so far.

Under bets hot with Basner working behind home

The Under has gone 5-0 in the last five games when umpire Toby Basner is working behind home plate. Basner will be calling balls and strikes when the Toronto Blue Jays visit the Washington Nationals for the first game of a doublheader Tuesday.

There habe been 29 runs scored in those five ball games, averaging just under 6 runs per contest. The Over/Under count is 2-5-2 in nine ball games when Basner has been behind the dish this season.

R.A. Dickey gets the ball for the Jays while the Nats are expected to send Jordan Zimmermann to the bump. Oddsmakers have the total pegged at 7.5 for the afternoon game.

Blue Jays slumping on the road

The Toronto Blue Jays have struggled away from the Rogers Centre, dropping seven of their last eight games on the road.

The slide has the Blue Jays tied for the third most losses on the road in 2015with 17 to just nine wins.

It won't get much easier for the Jays who have to travel to Washington to start a three game series with the Nationals Tuesday.

R.A. Dickey (2-5, 5.77 ERA) is scheduled to take the mound for Toronto, while the Nats are expected to counter with Jordan Zimmerman (4-2, 3.26 ERA).
