Over that span, Beckett has only allowed nine runs over 25 innings but hasn't received much run support. Beckett can't be thrilled about the prospects of playing the Reds.

Yankees (-135, O/U 9): After going six consecutive starts without recording a win, Chien-Ming Wang finally got over the hump in his last outing versus the A's. Wang got the victory after allowing just one run over seven innings. Wang's problems this season have all taken place at Yankee Stadium. He's a perfect 4-0 on the road to go along with a strong 2.38 ERA. Despite Wang's recent inconsistency, the Yankees have won the last four games that he's taken the mound.

PROJECTED SCORE: 3 (UNDER - Total Play of the Day)

Angels (-145, O/U 8.5): Joe Saunders was cruising along this season until he ran into the Rays his last time out. Tampa hammered Saunders to the tune of nine hits and eight runs in just 4.2 innings.

Boston Celtics at Los Angeles Lakers [ABC | 9 PM ET]

Celtics: Boston is definitely proving that defense wins championships, although the team's job isn't done yet. The Celtics had outrebounded an opponent in eight straight games until Game 4 on Thursday, as the Lakers held a 41-40 edge. With center Kendrick Perkins and point guard Rajon Rondo still nursing injuries, they must find a way to continue their stellar defense if they hope to close out this series in LA. If they can do that, Paul Pierce and his teammates will finally get to celebrate an NBA championship, which would be extra sweet for him considering he grew up in Inglewood. "I think I was too hyped for (Game 3)," Pierce said. "I think I got caught up in the opportunity of playing at home and having a chance to go up 3-0 in the series. I've got to calm down if I want to do well here."

Celtics are 6-0 ATS in the last 6 meetings.
The UNDER is 7-0 in Boston's last 7 road games.

Key Injuries - G Rajon Rondo (10.6 ppg; sprained ankle) is questionable.
C Kendrick Perkins (6.9 ppg; shoulder) is questionable.

PROJECTED SCORE: 92

Lakers (-7, O/U 190.5): While no team has ever come back from being down 3-1 in the NBA Finals (0-for-28), half of those teams did bounce back in Game 5 to force at least a Game 6. This could be Phil Jackson's toughest coaching job ever, trying to convince his team that this series is not over. "I'm a realist; it happened,"Jackson said. "It is what it is. At the same time, there are a lot of positive things that we did." Of course he was referring to his team's historic collapse, building the biggest first-quarter lead ever in the NBA Finals only to watch it all slip away. LA star Kobe Bryant took another approach. "Whine about it tonight," he said. "A lot of wine, a lot of beer, a couple shots - maybe 20 of them. ****** it. Get back to work (Friday). Nothing you can do."

Lakers are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games as a favorite.
The UNDER is 8-1 in LA's last 9 games overall.

Key Injuries - NONE

SCOREBOARD
Monday, June 16

Boston at Philadelphia (7:05 p.m. EDT). Red Sox slugger Manny Ramirez and Phillies slugger Ryan Howard face off as these two first-place teams meet in interleague play.

STARS
Saturday

- Kevin Youkilis, Red Sox, singled, doubled and hit a tiebreaking homer in the 10th inning, rallying Boston to a 6-4 victory over Cincinnati, the team he adored as a local prep and college star.

- Kevin Kouzmanoff, Padres, hit a grand slam in a five-run 10th inning, and San Diego beat Cleveland 8-3.

- Mike Aviles, Royals, had four hits, including a homer, and Kansas City beat Arizona 12-3.

- Rich Harden, Athletics, pitched one-hit ball for six innings and matched his season high with nine strikeouts, leading Oakland to a 4-0 win over San Francisco.

- Charlie Morton, Braves, allowed three runs and five hits in six innings to win in his major league debut, a 9-4 win over the Angels.

MILESTONE

Mike Mussina pitched six solid innings for his 10th win, the Yankees' 8-4 victory over the Astros Saturday night. Mussina (10-4) allowed three runs and six hits to reach 10 wins for the 17th straight season, extending his American League record. It's the third time in his career and the first time since 2003 he's done it within 15 starts.

PAYBACK

St. Louis' Kyle Lohse pitched a season-high eight innings of four-hit ball against the Phillies, the team that failed to re-sign him after last season. Lohse (8-2) was hurt only by Pat Burrell's two-run homer in the fourth as the Cardinals beat Philadelphia 3-2. The Phillies offered Lohse a three-year contract for around $21 million after he helped them make the playoffs last fall, but he held out for a better deal before settling for a one-year, $4.25 million free agent deal with the Cardinals in mid-March.

REPLAY

Prince Fielder thought he had ended the Brewers' extra-inning game against the Twins in the 10th inning with a drive off the center-field wall that highlighted the discussion for instant replay. Fielder's shot appeared to hit the yellow line, but not go over the wall after Carlos Gomez attempted a leaping catch. According to the ground rules at Miller Park, a ball that goes over the yellow line on the top of the outfield fence in flight is a homer, if it strikes the line and bounces back it is not. Fielder pumped his fists before hurrying for a triple. After a short discussion by the umpire crew, the call stood. Minnesota went on to win 9-4 in the 12th.

UP AND DOWN AND UP

Tyler Clippard (2-0), who started Monday, was sent to the minors Tuesday then recalled for Saturday, got the win in the Nationals' 5-2 victory over Seattle. He went six-plus innings, allowing seven hits and two runs.

STRONG START

Jason Marquis (5-3) faced one batter over the minimum during the first four innings and didn't allow a hit until Lyle Overbay led off the bottom of the fifth with a single to right-center. Marquis departed after seven-plus innings having allowed one run on four hits while striking out one in the Cubs' 6-2 win over the Cubs on Saturday.

SLUMPING

The Dodgers' 12-7 loss to Detroit was their fourth straight defeat. They have lost 16 of their last 22.

WELCOME BACK

Jonny Gomes homered in his first at-bat since serving a five-game suspension for his part in a bench-clearing brawl, leading the Tampa Bay Rays to a 4-1 victory over the Florida Marlins on Saturday night.

SNAPPED

The Colorado Rockies ended Chicago's nine-game home winning streak with a 2-0 win over the White Sox on Saturday night.

SHELLED

Arizona's Randy Johnson (4-4) gave up eight runs-seven earned-and 10 hits in 4 1/3 innings of a 12-3 loss to Kansas City on Saturday.

QUICK FEET

Colorado's Willy Taveras stole a career-high five bases and the Rockies beat the White Sox 2-0.

STAT

The Orioles rallied for an 8-7 win over Pittsburgh on Saturday and improved to 15-9 in one-run games after going 13-31 in that situation last season.

SPEAKING

"I've done this before. It's a good thing we stuck around. We had some good routines going. It was awesome. We’re just having fun tonight. We haven't had any rain problems this year, so we might as well have some fun."-Texas second baseman Ian Kinsler on his headfirst dive across the wet tarp at Shea Stadium. The Rangers and Mets game was rained out.

SEASONS
June 16

1916-Tom Hughes of the Boston Braves pitched a no-hitter in a 2-0 win over Pittsburgh Pirates.

1938-Jimmie Foxx didn't get a chance to hit as the St. Louis Browns walked him six straight times. The Boston Red Sox won anyway, 12-8.

1953-The St. Louis Browns beat New York 3-1 to break the Yankees' 18-game winning streak and end their 14-game losing streak.

NBA Games

Celtics will try to win the NBA title in Game 5 tonight; so far in this series, they've outscored Lakers 116-73 in third quarter, so you have to give coaching edge to Rivers and his staff for any adjustments made during halftime. Lakers led 35-14 after first quarter in Game 4, the largest first quarter lead in Finals history and they lost, so you figure series is over, since 28 teams have been down 3-1 in NBA Finals before, and none of them won a title, but you never know. Eddie House was +20 in Game 4, so Lakers outscored Boston by 14 while he was on bench; will be interesting to see how much he plays tonight.
