07/04/2009 - Bronx, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Jorge Posada's single in the bottom of the 12th inning lifted the New York Yankees to a 6-5 win over Toronto in the second of a four-game set from Yankee Stadium.
Posada also hit a homer and finished with two RBI, Johnny Damon hit a two-run homer, Hideki Matsui added a solo blast and Alex Rodriguez also drove in a run for the Yankees, who have taken the first two games of the series and have won nine of their last 10 contests.
Brett Tomko (1-2) pitched a scoreless inning for the win. Starter Chien-Ming Wang was charged with six hits and four runs over 5 1/3 innings before leaving due to injury.
Alex Rios collected two hits and drove in three runs for the Blue Jays, losers in six of their last seven. Adam Lind homered and knocked in a pair while Marco Scutaro hit safely twice and scored once in defeat.
Shawn Camp (0-4) took the loss, charged with the deciding run on two hits despite four strikeouts over 2 1/3 innings. Roy Halladay was tagged for nine hits, including three homers, and five runs in his seven-inning start.
Camp issued a leadoff double to Mark Teixeira, then intentionally walked Rodriguez. Robinson Cano attempted to sacrifice both runners, but Raul Chavez threw to third for the first out before Posada plated Rodriguez with a base hit to center.
The Yanks picked up a run in the first as Damon walked with one out, moved to second on a groundout and scored on a single from Rodriguez.
Toronto struck with a pair in the second when a Rios single brought in Vernon Wells and Lyle Overbay, but Matsui evened the score in the home half with his 12th home run of the season.
Posada led off the fourth with a homer which gave New York a 3-2 edge, but Wang gave that right back in the sixth, allowing a leadoff double to Scutaro and a two-run homer to Lind. David Robertson was summoned but walked both Scott Rolen and Overbay before striking out Wells. Rios then singled home Rolen and the Jays led 5-3.
Jeter singled with one out in the seventh and Damon tied the game with a two- run shot.
Jesse Carlson retired Cano on a grounder with two on and two out in the ninth to send the game to extra innings.

Matt Kenseth And Kevin Harvick Favorites To Take NASCAR Nextel Cup Championship
(September 15)—The NASCAR season has hit the homestretch with the opening event on this year’s Chase for the Cup taking place this weekend at the Sylvania 300 at New Hampshire International Speedway. With 10 races remaining to determine the Cup Series champion, leading online sportsbook MySportsbook.com today announced odds on all 10 Chase qualifying drivers capturing the NASCAR Sprint Cup Championship.
One of the largest sportsbook sites on the Internet, MySportsbook.com currently lists the top two drivers in the point standings as the early favorites to win the Nextel Cup. Entering the Chase for the Cup with a slim five-point lead in the point standings, 2003 NASCAR champ Matt Kenseth has been made a slight favorite to win his second Cup at 7/2 betting odds. 2001 Cup Rookie of the Year Kevin Harvick has betting odds listed at 5/2 and four-time NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon is listed at 6/1 to capture the Nextel Cup this year.
Hoping to follow in the footsteps of his legendary father who won six NASCAR titles, Dale Earnhardt Jr. stands at 8/1 to breakthrough with his first Cup victory. Staying with the family theme, MySportsbook.com lists 2005 Rookie of the Year Kyle Busch at 14/1 to succeed big brother Kurt’s 2004 NASCAR title. While Kasey Kahne was the final driver to qualify for the Chase with a third place finish last week, the oddsmakers give him a fighting chance at 10/1 mainly due to several mile-and-a-half tracks remaining on the schedule. Despite going winless on the NASCAR circuit this season, Jeff Burton enters the Chase at 5/1 to capture the Cup title. Meanwhile, rookie Denny Hamlin is 4/1 to win the championship, while veteran driver Mark Martin enters the Chase for the Cup as a 15/1 long shot to win his first NASCAR title in his 24th and final season.
MySportsbook.com will offer comprehensive Nascar betting lines on every race remaining on the Nextel Cup series including driver match-ups, props and odds to win each race. For a complete list of NASCAR odds, please visit www.MySportsbook.com.
