**********

Armadillo: Friday's List of 13: Random stuff with weekend here.........

13) Here’s an idea for your next party; the person who owns the infamous white Ford Bronco from the OJ Simpson/Al Cowlings chase 20 years ago rents the vehicle out for parties. What could be more festive?

12) Former President George H Bush turned 90 years old this week, and to commemorate the occasion, will sky dive for the last time. Good for him; I’ve got a hard enough time walking down the stairs from one of those planes, much less jumping out of one.

11) In the last four years, over half of the 351 Division I college basketball jobs have turned over; that’s a lot of change.

10) A’s will be without pitching coach Curt Young and 3B coach Mike Gallego for Saturday’s game; both will be in Arizona for memorial service of former teammate Bob Welch, who passed away earlier this week.

9) As of Thursday morning, 25 of 30 major league teams were within five games of a playoff spot, which is why the Twins went after Kendrys Morales. Top-to-bottom in the AL Central is within 3.5 games. The second Wild Card helps keep teams in the race, which is why they probably should push the trade deadline back to August 15 or 31, as opposed to the current July 31 deadline.

8) Yoenis Cespedes has nine outfield assists this year, four against the Angels, three of which came at home plate, the other at third base. He can really throw; most guys with arms like his play rightfield.

7) If you judge 2014 NFL schedules by 2013 records, these three teams have the hardest schedules this season: Raiders (.578), Broncos (.570), Rams (.564).

6) June 23 is the deadline for NBA players to opt out of contracts to become free agents; there could be Interweb pandemonium if Carmelo Anthony opts out. I’m thinking Phil Jackson wouldn’t mind if he did, but he can’t say that publicly. Anthony is an older player who isn’t exactly a selfless individual; for the Knicks to become championship caliber, Anthony (an 11-year vet with 23 career playoff wins) has to go.

5) Julius Randle will get drafted high by a NBA team later this month, then will get his injured foot fixed and miss most of the summer, which means I won’t see him in Las Vegas next month.

4) I’m looking forward to seeing Steve Kerr coach the Warriors’ team in Vegas and seeing what the Knicks put together for their summer team. Will Derek Fisher coach it? Will Phil Jackson be there? Summer league is usually great fun to go to.

3) Mississippi State-Oregon State are starting a home/home hoop series this fall; no easy way to get from Starkville to Corvallis- must be made-for-TV games.

2) MGM Grand will host a tournament Nov 24/26 with Oklahoma State-Tulsa-Auburn-Oregon State. Three of those four teams have new coaches this season.

1) Speaking of coaches, ESPN.com is ranking top 50 college basketball coaches this month, a truly thankless job. I won’t even bother discussing their rankings, since what I think is important is way different than what they think or what you think, but if Bruce Pearl isn’t one of the 50 best coaches in America, then I weigh 150 pounds with a full head of hair, because neither of those two things is close to being true, either.

Game of the Day: Rangers at Kings
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Los Angeles Kings at New York Rangers (-159, 5)

Kings lead series 3-1.

The Los Angeles Kings get a chance to capture their second championship in three years at home as they host the New York Rangers in Game 5 of the Stanley Cup final on Friday. After winning the first three contests to push New York to the brink of elimination, Los Angeles was unable to complete the sweep as it dropped a 2-1 decision at Madison Square Garden on Wednesday. Benoit Pouliot and Martin St. Louis scored while Henrik Lundqvist made 40 saves as the Rangers improved to 11-2 in their last 13 elimination games and won their NHL-record eighth straight such contest at home.

Captain Dustin Brown netted the lone goal for the Kings, who had the opportunity to claim the Cup on the two-year anniversary of their first championship. Los Angeles outshot New York 15-1 in the third period of Game 4 and also dominated on faceoffs, winning 41 of the 65 draws. The Kings are 7-4 at home this postseason while the Rangers are 6-6 on the road.

TV: 8 p.m. ET, NBCSN, CBC, RDS

LINE HISTORY: The Kings opened as -163 faves, dropped to -155 immediately after and have since moved up to -159

INJURY REPORT: N/A

ABOUT THE KINGS: Contrary to expectation, Los Angeles has been outhit in three of the first four games of the series. The team has had the edge in faceoffs, barely outdueling New York in each of the first three contests before owning the category in Game 4. That's a hollow victory to Brown, who was disappointed that his club was unable to finish off the Rangers. "We weren't good enough to win," he said. "It's about finding a way to be better. It is an opportunity lost."

ABOUT THE RANGERS: Pouliot's goal 7:25 into Game 4 was New York's first tally since Derick Brassard scored at 14:50 of the second period in Game 2, ending a drought of 123 minutes, 1 second. The tally was Pouliot's second of the series, as he also netted the first goal of the final. St. Louis also tallied for the second time this series and has recorded a team-high eight goals in 24 playoff games after scoring only once in 19 regular-season contests after being acquired from Tampa Bay.

TRENDS:

* Over is 7-2-1 In Kings last 10 games.
* Home team is 7-3 in the last 10 meetings.
* Kings are 9-1 in their last 10 vs. Metropolitan.
* Over is 4-0-1 in Kings last five home games.

CONSENSUS: 64.78 percent of Consensus bets are on the Kings.

Dodgers' SS Hanley Ramirez, questionable Friday

Ramirez has missed three straight game because of an irritated right shoulder. He is questionable for Friday against the Diamondbacks.

Yanks' Ellsbury (hip) expects to play Friday

The New York Yankees' first three-game series sweep of the season came with a touch of pain Thursday night.

Center fielder Jacoby Ellsbury, who extended his hitting streak to 16 games with a two-run homer in the first inning, experienced a flare-up in his sore right hip before coming out of the game after 6 1/2 innings. Both Ellsbury and manager Joe Girardi said after the game that the injury was minor and that Ellsbury should be back on the field Friday at Oakland, but the aggravation of the injury is a bit concerning.

Ellsbury hurt his hip last Sunday and was not expected to be in the lineup for Monday game's at Kansas City. A rainout postponed that contest.

He played all of the first 24 innings of the Seattle series but couldn't finish Thursday's game. Ellsbury said that he aggravated the injury while making a catch against the wall in the fifth inning, and then he felt the hip tighten up while batting in the top of the sixth.

"It's tight," he said Thursday after the Yankees' 6-3 win over Seattle, "but I expect to be out there (Friday)."

Girardi said that Ellsbury didn't want to come out of the game but that the team was being cautious with him. The Yankees led 6-2 when Ichiro Suzuki replaced Ellsbury in the bottom of the seventh inning.

"We think he'll be able to play for us (Friday), but we'll see," Girardi said.

Pirates, Marlins like keeping scorelines low

Despite being a great Over club this season, the Miami Marlins are in the habit of keeping ball games low-scoring when they play the Pittsburgh Pirates.

The Marlins host the Pirates for a three-game set which opens Friday and if recent trends suggest anything, then the Under could be in the cards.

The Under is 20-6-1 in the last 27 meetings by the two National League clubs and is 8-3 in the last 11 games in Miami.

Scheduled starters in the series are Jeff Locke for the Bucs and Nathan Eovaldi for the Marlins.

Line move for Game 5 of Cup Final you need to know

The puck drops on Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Finals Friday night at the Staples center in Los Angeles and the line moves continue to indicate bettors are thinking the Kings will end the series tonight.

The Kings, who lead the New York Rangers 3-1, have moved to -171 favorites to hoist the Stanley Cup above their heads Friday night.

Los Angeles opened at -163 Thursday and were quickly bet down to -155, but since then the line has steadily moved towards the Kings. The Kings were bet to -171 early Friday morning.

Thursday was a good night to back home teams

Whether it was home favorites or home underdogs, Thursday night was a good night to back home teams against the runline.

Teams who enjoyed home cooking went 8-3 against the runline in the majors last night, good for a success rate of almost 73 percent.

Home favorites went 5-2, hitting at a mark of over 71 percent while home dogs went 3-1, coming in at an even better 75 percent.

Home teams have struggled against the runline this season, winning just 43 percent of the time.

Line for Game 5 of NBA Finals opens

The NBA Finals takes a few days off before the San Antonio Spurs try to wrap up their fifth NBA title at home Sunday and books think they'll get the job done.

The Spurs have opened as 5.5-point favorites for their Game 5 meeting with the Miami Heat. The total has opened at 195.

The Heat are looking for answers after getting off to slow starts the last two games and that has translated to them going 1-4 straight up and against the spread in the last five meetings.

Friday's MLB betting cheat sheet Rangers huge underdogs vs. Felix
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Happy Home Underdogs

Home underdogs had a strong showing in Thursday's major league action, going 4-1 against the moneyline. Cincinnati (+115), Philadelphia (+105), Houston (+102) and Colorado (+102) all prevailed while the Mets (+120) were the only one to falter; home underdogs are just 128-166 on the season.

Double Digits in Denver

The host Rockies racked up the runs Thursday, cruising past Atlanta 10-3 for their 10th double-digit performance of the year - all but one of them coming at Coors Field. Colorado is 8-2 SU in those games and is 17-15-1 O/U at home in 2014 despite having the highest average total by a wide margin.

Felix Factor

The Texas Rangers (+182, 7) face their longest odds in more than four years as they visit Felix Hernandez and the Seattle Mariners. The Rangers haven't been this big an underdog since May 1, 2010, when they defeated Hernandez at Safeco Field 6-3 despite being installed at a whopping +194.

Pitching Notes

* Athletics right-hander Sonny Gray is in the midst of a trend reversal as he prepares to face the visiting New York Yankees (+167, 7.5). Gray opened the season 2-5-1 O/U but has been one of the league's strongest Over plays in five starts since, going 4-0-1 O/U.

* Los Angeles Dodgers lefty Clayton Kershaw has been strangely consistent this season, recording exactly nine strikeouts in six of his eight starts this season. The Dodgers are 4-2 S/U and 3-3 O/U in those outings entering Friday's showdown with visiting Arizona (+190, 6.5).

Hitting Notes

* Rockies outfielder Charlie Blackmon broke out of a 4-for-24 slump Thursday with three hits, including a homer, in the rout of Atlanta. Colorado is 6-5 against the moneyline and 9-2 O/U when Blackmon goes deep entering Friday's tilt with host San Francisco (-137, 7.5).

* Astros rookie first baseman Jon Singleton swatted his third home run of the season in Thursday's 5-4 win over Arizona. Houston is an impressive 7-3 S/U and 5-5 O/U in 10 games since Singleton was summoned from the minors.

Totals Streak

Toronto Blue Jays (0-6-1 O/U): The offensive woes continue for the American League East leaders, who have scored two runs or fewer in five of their last six games - and not surprisingly, they lost all five. Toronto is s34-31-3 O/U for the season.

Prop of the Day

Expect a tight one between the host Chicago White Sox (-129, 8) and the Kansas City Royals, making a Chicago win by exactly one run (+350) a potentially strong play. The teams have played four one-run games in their last 10 meetings in Chicago, with the White Sox winning three of them.

Injury Notes

* Arizona manager Kirk Gibson says slugger Mark Trumbo (foot) is still three weeks away from participating in baseball activities. The Diamondbacks are 25-23 SU, 19-27-2 O/U and +294 units in Trumbo's absence.

* Yankees outfielder Jacoby Ellsbury left Thursday's game after aggravating his right hip injury, but expects to be back in the lineup Friday. Ellsbury is riding a 16-game hitting streak entering Friday's showdown with Oakland.

Weather Watch

Citizens Bank Park will see wind blowing out to center field for Friday's game between host Philadelphia (-113, 8.5) and the Cubs. Teams averaged nine runs and 1.95 home runs in 20 games under similar conditions in 2013; scoring was up over the park average, but homers were down.

Umpire Note of the Day

The road team is 10-2 in umpire Mike DiMuro's last 12 games calling the balls and strikes. DiMuro will be behind home plate for Friday's showdown between Toronto (-102, 9) and host Baltimore.
