09/09/2010 - San Diego, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Cory Luebke pitched six shutout innings to earn his first major league win, and the San Diego Padres swept a three-game series from the Los Angeles Dodgers with a 4-0 victory.
Luebke (1-1) made just his second career appearance and allowed two hits and a walk while fanning seven for the Padres, who stretched their division lead to two games over the Giants. San Francisco, which San Diego plays for four games starting Thursday, lost to Arizona on Wednesday.
Luis Durango had two hits, a stolen base and two RBI, while Adrian Gonzalez and Miguel Tejada each drove in a run in the win, San Diego's third straight following a 10-game losing streak.
Matt Kemp doubled for the Dodgers, losers in five straight to fall two games below .500 (69-71). Chad Billingsley (11-9) surrendered four runs, six hits and five walks in just 5 1/3 frames to take the loss.
The Padres got all the offense they needed with a run in the third when Durango singled with one out, stole second and scored on Tejada's two-out single to center.
While Luebke shut down the Dodgers, San Diego added some insurance in the sixth.
Will Venable singled leading off, and Everth Cabrera put down a bunt single. David Eckstein reached on a sacrifice bunt attempt, loading the bases with nobody out, and Durango's single chased home Venable and Cabrera for a 3-0 lead.
Gonzalez added a sacrifice fly later in the inning for a four-run cushion.
Luebke allowed just one runner to reach third in his start, and Ryan Webb pitched a perfect seventh. Ernesto Frieri, Joe Thatcher and Luke Gregerson combined on a scoreless eighth, and Gregerson stayed on to finish the game out with a flawless ninth for his second save.
Game Notes
San Diego leads the season series, 8-7...Padres catcher Nick Hundley turned 27 on Wednesday. He did not play...Gonzalez extended his hit streak to 11 games...The Dodgers matched their season-worst losing streak...Billingsley fell to 10-6 in his career against the Padres...When San Diego records a stolen base, it is 51-13.

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship. Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92. After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points. Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1. Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years. With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed. UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern. Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier. OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak. Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four. It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta. But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
