Armadillo: Tuesday's six-pack

Odds for the US Open this weekend:

15-2: Brooks Koepka

8-1: Dustin Johnson, Rory McIlroy

9-1: Eldrick Woods

16-1: Patrick Cantlay, Jordan Spieth

22-1: Justin Rose

25-1: Jon Rahm, Rickie Fowler, Xander Schauffele

**********

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

13) Warriors 106, Raptors 105— Toronto had a 6-point lead and the ball with 3:00 left, but couldn’t finish the job; Game 6 is in Oakland Thursday. Warriors were +6 in 12:00 with Kevin Durant on the floor; seriously doubt he plays again in this series.

Late night update: Warriors think Durant tore his achilles.

12) Dallas Keuchel made his ’19 debut Monday, pitching for Rome in the Class A South Atlantic League; he allowed a single, a walk with nine strikeouts in seven scoreless innings.

11) Braves 13, Pirates 7— Josh Donaldson got drilled by a pitch in the first inning, the ump threw the pitcher out, and a high-scoring game broke out. Marte and Albies both homered twice in this game.

10) Former Auburn, Akron coach Terry Bowden is heading to the Clemson football staff as a 63-year-old graduate assistant; his brother Tommy was Clemson’s head coach for 10 years.

Bowden is going for a Master’s Degree in athletic leadership at Clemson, and his position on the staff is an unpaid graduate internship.

9) Auburn 14, North Carolina 7— Tigers advance to the College World Series; they scored 13 runs in the top of the first inning. Rough way for the season to end for UNC.

8) Wednesday’s Rangers-Red Sox game in Boston moves up from 7:00 to 4:00 because Game 7 of the Stanley Cup final is Wednesday night in Boston.

7) Baseball stuff:
— Pirates put P Jordan Lyles (hamstring) on IL.
— Cardinals put P Adam Wainwright (hamsring) on IL
— Angels’ P Matt Harvey aggravated his back injury on a rehab start.

6) Rained in New York City Monday night, so Subway Series will have a day/night twinbill on Tuesday, with games at 1:05, 7:05.

5) Tony Parker retired after 18 seasons in the NBA; he won four NBA titles with the Spurs.

4) Read online yesterday that El Cortez and Four Queens are last places in Las Vegas that deal low-limit single deck blackjack that still pays 3-2 on naturals. Most single deck games pay 6-5 now.

3) College basketball transfer portal:
— Grad transfer Isaiah Moss bolts from Iowa to Kansas.
— Grad transfer Tevin Mack bolts from Alabama to Clemson.
— F Eugene Omoruyi bolts from Rutgers to Oregon.

2) Arizona 13, Phillies 8— This was seventh time since 1914 that a team led off a game with three straight home runs; last time was in 2017, also the Diamondbacks.

Phillies’ Jerad Eickhoff didn’t allow a HR in any of his first five starts (30 IP); he’s allowed at least one homer in six straight starts (13 HR in last 24 1/3 IP).

1) Field for the College World Series is set:
Bracket One: Arkansas, Florida State, Michigan, Texas Tech.
Bracket Two: Auburn, Louisville, Mississippi State, Vanderbilt

WNBA Betting Recap - 6/4-6/10
Joe Williams

League Betting Notes (Tuesday, June 4 through Monday, June 10)

-- Favorites went 11-3 straight up (SU)
-- Favorites went 7-5-2 against the spread (ATS)
-- Home teams went 8-6 SU
-- Home teams went 9-3-2 ATS
-- The 'under' went 8-6

Season Totals To Date

-- Favorites are 21-10 straight up (SU)
-- Favorites are 15-14-2 against the spread (ATS)
-- Home teams are 20-11 SU
-- Road teams are 15-14-2 ATS
-- The 'under' is 20-11

Team Betting Notes

-- Atlanta (1-4 SU, 1-4 ATS) has dropped four in a row since picking up a victory in their opener. However, they were at least able to grab a narrow cover in a home loss against Connecticut (5-1 SU, 4-2 ATS) after opening the season 0-4 ATS. The 'under' has gone 4-1 across the Dream's first five outings, too.

-- As far as the Sun is concerned, they're off to a tremendous start, and have a showdown with Washington (4-1 SU, 3-2 ATS) on Tuesday night, as those teams have the two best records in the WNBA so far. The game is at home, and the Sun has posted a perfect 3-0 SU/ATS mark in their three games on their home floor so far. The 'over' is 2-1 in those three games, but the 'under' is 4-2 overall for Jonquel Jones and company.

-- For the Mystics, they have surprised with four consecutive wins after losing to the Sun in Connecticut to open the season May 25. They're 4-0 SU/3-1 ATS since, and the 'over' is 3-1 over their past four games as well.

-- Dallas (0-4 SU, 2-2 ATS) continues to search for its first victory of the season, but they have still been a friend to bettors. The 'under' is a perfect 4-0 for the Wings so far.

-- Indiana (3-2 SU, 3-2 ATS) will try to avoid becoming the first victim of the Wings when they travel to the Metroplex later this week. Like the Wings, the Fever have been a friend to total bettors during the early going. The 'over' is 4-1 overall, and 2-0 in their two road outings.

-- Los Angeles (3-2 SU, 2-2-1 ATS) picked up a hard-fought win in Minnesota (4-2 SU, 2-3-1 ATS) in front of a raucous home crowd and national television audience, a very nice win as 4 1/2-point underdogs. The Sparks have yet to cover back-to-back games this season, going 2-2-1 ATS. After the 'under' opened 3-0, the 'over' is now 2-0 for the Sparks.

-- The Lynx fired out of the box with a 3-0 SU mark, but they're 1-2 SU over the past three while going 0-3-1 ATS across the past four. Defensive issues have been the biggest issue, as they allowed 66.3 PPG through the first three games, and 76.3 PPG over the past three. As such, the 'under' was 3-0 in their first three, and just 1-2 over the past three outings.

-- New York (1-4 SU, 2-2-1 ATS) stunned Las Vegas (2-3 SU, 2-3 ATS) to win straight up as 11-point underdogs on Sunday, 88-78. The Liberty haven't had difficulty scoring the basketball, going for 80.6 PPG. They just cannot stop anyone, allowing a dismal 84.6 PPG, second-worst in the league. The totals for their games have been at 166 or higher in each of the past two.

-- The Aces were receiving talk as favorites for the WNBA championship before the season, but that talk has quickly cooled. They have yet to win or cover in consecutive games. The 'under' is 4-1 in their first five, and 3-0 in the past three. Expect them to get it together soon, as they have a ton of talent, they're just learning to jell.

-- Phoenix (2-2 SU, 2-1-1 ATS) has alternated wins and losses through the first four games, with just one home game so far. They won and covered that one, and will be back in the Valley of the Sun on Friday against L.A.

-- Seattle (3-3 SU, 3-3 ATS) has alternated wins and losses, and covers and non-covers in each of their first six outings. One thing has been consistent, the 'under' -- which is 5-1 through six contests. Surprisingly, the under connected in their most recent outing, a loss in Chicago (2-2 SU, 2-2 ATS). The under has hit in three of the first four for the Sky, too.
