Baseball Betting Lines

05/20/2010 - St. Louis, MO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Matt Holliday's two-run, go-ahead double in the second inning held up, as the Cardinals earned a split of a two-game series against the Marlins with a 4-2 decision.

Ryan Ludwick and David Freese each knocked in a run for St. Louis, which received seven solid innings from Adam Wainwright to win for the third time in four games.

Wainwright (6-2) gave up two runs in the first inning then settled down to blank Florida over his next six frames, allowing a total of six hits and three walks while fanning eight to pick up the win.

Nate Robertson (4-4) was saddled with the loss, allowing four runs on six hits and four walks in a six-inning start for the Marlins, who had won six of seven coming into the game.

Hanley Ramirez and Dan Uggla each had an RBI in defeat.

Wainwright allowed the first three hitters of the game to reach base, as Chris Coghlan doubled, Gaby Sanchez walked and Ramirez hit an RBI single that left runners on the corners.

Uggla tacked on a sacrifice fly later in the inning, but Freese got a run back in the bottom half with a two-out, run-scoring single.

The Cardinals went ahead in their next at-bat, scoring three runs with two outs. Ludwick tied it on an opposite-field double to right, and Holliday followed with a one-hopper to the left-field wall, scoring a pair for a 4-2 lead.

Wainwright was relieved in the eighth by Kyle McClellan, who set down Florida's 3-4-5 hitters in order.

In the ninth, Ryan Franklin worked around a two-out walk to earn his 10th save of the season.

Game Notes

Both teams will start their first interleague series over the weekend, as St. Louis hosts the Angels, and Florida heads to Chicago for three games with the White Sox...Coghlan and Brett Hayes each had two hits for the Marlins...Holliday finished with two doubles.
