07/22/2007 - Milwaukee, WI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Barry Bonds went 0-for-2, failing to move any closer to Hank Aaron's all-time home run record, but his teammates provided enough offense to power San Francisco past the Milwaukee Brewers, 8-0, in the second of a three-game series at Miller Park.
Commissioner Bud Selig was in attendance, with Bonds sitting two home runs shy of Aaron's mark of 755. Selig plans to be there for the third game of the series as the home run chase goes through his home town.
Not only is Milwaukee the home of Selig, but also where Aaron played from 1954-65 with the Braves and then in 1975-76 with the Brewers. On this date back in 1976, Aaron hit historic home run No. 755 right here in Milwaukee.
Pedro Feliz homered for the Giants, who have won three of their last five games. Ray Durham went 2-for-5 with three RBI in the win. Tim Lincecum (5-2), who posted back-to-back wins on July 1 and 7, extended his stretch of impressive outings by tossing a four-hitter with eight strikeouts and a walk over eight innings, retiring the first 11 batters he faced.
Craig Counsell went 1-for-3 for the Brewers, who have lost three of four. Dave Bush (8-8) allowed three runs on six hits with two walks and seven strikeouts over six innings, while avoiding becoming the 444th pitcher to allow a Bonds homer.
San Francisco scored a run in the second, as Ryan Klesko grounded a lead-off single, Bengie Molina doubled him over to third, and he came home on Feliz's single.
The Giants plated a pair of runs in the fourth. Klesko walked and then stole second, and Feliz blasted a two-run shot to right-center field on a 3-0 pitch rather than seek the walk.
San Francisco turned it into a rout with a five-run ninth off reliever Chris Spurling, who got reinstated from the bereavement list prior to the game. Feliz singled and advanced to second on a throwing error by J.J. Hardy. Omar Vizquel and Lincecum both walked to load the bases for Dave Roberts and then Randy Winn, both of whom singled in a run before Derrick Turnbow replaced Spurling on the mound. Durham lined a bases-clearing double before Fred Lewis grounded out and Klesko struck out swinging.
Game Notes
There was a chance that Bonds would not be in the starting lineup due to Saturday's 3:55 p.m. (et) start time. The two teams squared off in a night contest Friday and Bonds recently sat out the first three games of a four-game set with the Cubs to rest his legs...Johnny Estrada got hit on the right arm by a pitch in the ninth and left the game...Vizquel appeared in his 2,512th game at shortstop, surpassing Ozzie Smith for second place on the all-time list behind Venezuelan countryman Luis Aparicio...Milwaukee optioned outfielder Gabe Gross to Triple-A Nashville prior to the game...The Brewers had won seven straight -- all at home -- versus the Giants until Friday's loss. That included a three-game sweep this year in Milwaukee from June 18-20.

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.
