Baseball Betting Lines

09/04/2010 - Miami, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Jair Jurrjens and two relievers combined on a four-hitter as Atlanta stifled Florida, 2-0, in the middle meeting of a three-game set at Sun Life Stadium.

Jurrjens (7-4) allowed three hits, while he walked three and fanned seven to earn his first win on the road this season. Jonny Venters retired the side in order in the eighth and Billy Wagner worked the ninth to record his 32nd save for the Braves, who maintained their one-game lead over Philadelphia in the NL East after the Phillies edged Milwaukee.

Former Marlins shortstop Alex Gonzalez drove in both runs against his former team while Omar Infante and Martin Prado each contributed two hits for Atlanta, which has won six out of eight.

Josh Johnson (11-6) was the hard-luck loser after allowing two runs on eight hits while walking three and matching a career-high with 12 strikeouts for the Marlins, who had a three-game win streak halted.
