Baseball Betting Lines

09/05/2010 - Miami, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Scott Cousins' pinch-hit single -- his first big league hit -- in the bottom of the 10th inning scored Emilio Bonifacio, as the Florida Marlins got by the Atlanta Braves, 7-6, in the rubber match of a three-game set at Sun Life Stadium.

Bonifacio led off the inning with a double off Eric O'Flaherty (3-2) and took third on an error by left fielder Melky Cabrera. Cousins, stepping in for Logan Morrison, who had to leave the game after getting hit below the eye while standing in the on-deck circle on a foul ball hit by Bonifacio, laced a single to deep left that scored the game-winning run.
