Astros' Berkman suspended two games

Baseball Betting Lines

06/08/2007 - Houston, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Houston Astros first baseman Lance Berkman has been suspended for two games and fined an undisclosed amount on Friday for having returned to the field after being ejected in Tuesday's game with the Colorado Rockies.

Berkman was ejected in the eighth inning after arguing a checked-swing call, but when the benches cleared an inning later after Rockies reliever Manuel Corpas hit Carlos Lee with a pitch, Berkman came back out onto the field to join in.

Baring an appeal, Berkman's suspension will begin on Friday when the Astros face the Chicago White Sox at U.S. Cellular Field in interleague play.

Berkman is hitting .244 with eight home runs and 36 RBI in 58 games this season.

Will Ohio State continue to run the table in College Football betting odds?
MySportsbook.com favors Buckeyes, Fighting Irish and Golden Bears in this weekend's big games.

NEW YORK, NY, Sept. 21 - My Sportsbook NCAA football fans: things are beginning to get really interesting on college football's national stage. Following last weekend's "Separation Saturday", which included five teams ranked in the top 15 dropping games, the BCS Championship picture is beginning to take shape - with Ohio State leading the charge. And, according to odds makers at MySportsbook.com, the number-one-ranked Buckeyes will continue their winning ways this weekend.

Revenge will be the name of the game in Columbus this Saturday, as Ohio State looks to even the score following last season's loss to Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions. Although Penn State are listed as 16.5 point underdogs, they are 11-10 all-time versus the Buckeyes. Paterno and the Lions, however, will have to shut down Heisman Trophy favorite Troy Smith who has thrown for 769 yards and seven touchdowns this season.

Speaking of revenge, Notre Dame will be out for some against Michigan State, following last year's 44 - 41 overtime loss to the Spartans in South Bend. The thirteenth-ranked Irish, listed as a 3-point favorite, will also be looking to avenge last Saturday's thrashing from the Michigan Wolverines. The Spartans, meanwhile, have won seven of the last nine match-ups against Notre Dame and are coming off an impressive 38-23 victory over Pittsburgh.

Out west, 22nd-ranked Arizona State will be battling for their first victory over 21st-ranked California since 2000. Although the Golden Bears are listed as 7.5-point favorites, the Sun Devils are 3-0, lead the nation in sacks with 18 and possess the Pac-10's leading passer in sophomore quarterback Rudy Carpenter.
