Baseball Betting Lines

05/19/2010 - Seattle, WA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - First baseman Randy Ruiz was granted his release from the Toronto Blue Jays on Wednesday.

Ruiz, who had batted .150 with a home run and one RBI over 13 games this season, has signed a contract with Tohoku Rakuten Golden Eagles in Japan.

To take his place on the roster, the team recalled outfielder Jeremy Reed from Triple-A Las Vegas. He appeared in two games for Toronto earlier in the season and had one hit in four at-bats.

Also, the team activated pitcher Marc Rzepczynski from the 15-day disabled list and optioned him to Las Vegas. He has yet to play this season as he suffered a fracture on his middle finger of his throwing hand in spring training.

Pittsburgh earned their passage to the big game by beating their division rival, the Baltimore Ravens, 23-14 in yesterday's AFC Championship Game. The Steelers jumped on Baltimore early, building a 13-0 first half lead, and never let up on their way to a fairly easy win. Although the Ravens did close to within two points in the fourth quarter, it never appeared as if they had enough offense to pull off the upset.

The Steelers dominating defense held Baltimore to a total of 198 yards while allowing them to convert just three third downs in 13 attempts. Pittsburgh also forced quarterback Joe Flacco into three interceptions, one of which safety Troy Polamalu returned fourty yards for a touchdown.

The Cardinals, by far the playoff team with the longest odds to reach Super Bowl XLIII, did so yesterday with a 32-25 upset of the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship. Arizona charged out of the gates and built a 24-6 halftime lead that had the Eagles venerable defense reeling. Quarterback Kurt Warner and wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald did most of the damage, connecting on three first half touchdowns.

Arizona, however, could not sustain their momentum and the Eagles took a 25-24 with 10:45 left to play in the fourth. The Cardinals, with the franchise's first Super Bowl appearance hanging in the balance, mounted a fourteen play, 72 yard touchdown drive that consumed 7:52 off the clock. Warner hit running back Tim Hightower on a short screen for the go-ahead, game clinching score that will forever live in Cardinal infamy.
