Baseball Betting Lines

06/05/2010 - Oakland, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Delmon Young drove in the game-winning run in the 11th inning as the Minnesota Twins downed the Oakland Athletics, 5-4, in the opener of a three-game set.

Justin Morneau went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer and three runs scored, Joe Mauer had two hits and scored twice and Young finished with two RBI for the Twins, who had just lost the final three games of a four-game series to Seattle.

Scott Baker went 7 1/3 innings in the start, but did not factor in the decision. He gave up four runs on six hits with a walk and three strikeouts. Matt Guerrier (1-1) got the win as he pitched two scoreless innings.

Kevin Kouzmanoff clubbed a two-run home run, while Rajai Davis added a solo shot for the Athletics, who have lost three of their last four games.

Dallas Braden went 6 1/3 innings in the start and was charged with four runs on six hits with a walk and two strikeouts. Andrew Bailey (0-2) was handed the loss.

In the 11th, Morneau doubled to start the frame and, after Jason Kubel struck out, came home on a single from Young for a 5-4 lead.

Jon Rauch then worked around a two-out single by Kurt Suzuki in the bottom of the frame for his 14th save of the season.

The Twins jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the first as Mauer punched a two-out single and Morneau followed with his 13th home run of the season, a shot over the wall in right.

Oakland got one back in the fourth as Daric Barton doubled to start the inning and later came home on a Suzuki single to make it a 2-1 game.

With two outs in the sixth, Minnesota plated two more runs as Kubel's single plated Mauer, who kept the inning alive with a single, and Young's double plated Morneau, who walked following Mauer's single, for a 4-1 lead.

The A's, though, made it a one-run game in the seventh as Jack Cust worked a one-out walk and Kouzmanoff followed with a shot over the left field wall to make it a 4-3 game.

Oakland then tied the game in the eighth as Davis' solo homer, his second of the season, made it a 4-4 contest.
