Reds open second half by edging Rockies

Baseball Betting Lines

07/16/2010 - Cincinnati, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Bronson Arroyo pitched into the eighth inning and Orlando Cabrera drove in two runs, as the surprising Cincinnati Reds opened the second half of the season with a 3-2 win over Colorado at Great American Ball Park.

Arroyo (10-4) let in two runs on five hits while fanning four and walking one to reach double-digit wins for the fourth time in five seasons with the Reds.

The right-hander has won five of his last six decisions, but needed to be bailed out Friday by All-Star reliever Arthur Rhodes in the eighth. With nobody out and the bases loaded, Rhodes got Dexter Fowler on a shallow pop fly and struck out Jonathan Herrera and Carlos Gonzalez.

Francisco Cordero came on for the save in the ninth, his 25th of 2010, while fellow Cincinnati All-Star Brandon Phillips finished with three hits and scored twice for the Reds, who sit atop the NL Central with a 50-41 record.

It marks the first time the club has been in first place this late in a season since the final week of the 1999 campaign.

Colorado's Jason Hammel (7-4) suffered his first loss since May 21 -- a stretch of 10 starts -- despite striking out a career-best 10 batters. In seven innings, he allowed three runs on eight hits with only one walk.
