06/16/2007 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Chicago White Sox will try to snap a six-game road losing streak when they take on the Pittsburgh Pirates tonight in the second contest of a three-game interleague series at PNC Park.
The White Sox, who haven't dropped seven consecutive road games in more than six years, were outlasted by the Pirates last night by a 4-2 score in the series opener.
Paul Maholm (3-9) picked up the win for Pittsburgh by allowing just one run on three hits over seven strong innings. He struck out six while snapping a personal five-decision losing streak in the process.
Jose Bautista and Xavier Nady each went 2-for-4 with two RBI, while Jack Wilson was 2-for-4 with two runs scored for the Pirates, who have won three of their last four games.
A.J. Pierzynski went 1-for-2 with an RBI and a run scored for the White Sox, who have dropped four straight and nine of their last 10 overall games. Chicago, which is a troubling 13-20 on the road this season, has not lost seven in a row away from home since an eight-game slide from May 15-23, 2001.
Sox starter Jon Garland (4-4) was handed the loss, as he gave up four runs on 11 hits in six innings.
Mark Buehrle will try to get the White Sox back on track when he gets the start tonight. The crafty left-hander earned the 100th victory of his career on Sunday, yielding just on earned runs and six hits over eight innings of a 6-3 triumph against Houston. He had been stuck on 99 career victories since defeating Kansas City on April 23rd, a span of seven starts.
Buehrle has fared well in interleague play since the start of the 2005 season, going 5-1 with a 3.03 ERA in eight starts against National League.
In his lone career start against Pittsburgh, the veteran gave up two earned runs in seven innings of a 4-2 triumph last season.
Taking the hill for the Pirates will be John Van Benschoten, who is set to make his first major league start in almost three years. The 2001 first-round draft pick is taking the spot of Shawn Chacon, who was recently moved to the bullpen.
The right-hander has spent most of his time rehabbing from operations on both shoulders since going 1-3 with a 6.91 ERA in six games (five starts) for Pittsburgh in 2004.
Van Benschoten, who has never faced the White Sox in his short major league career, was 6-4 with a 2.73 ERA in 12 starts at Triple-A Indianapolis before getting called up.
Friday's matchup between the White Sox and Pirates was the first of the 2007 season between the clubs. Chicago won two of three games against Pittsburgh at PNC Park in 2006.
The White Sox are 102-83 all-time against the National League, while the Pirates own a 55-88 record in interleague play.

Terrell Owens could return for Cowboys next game
A bye week will allow Terrell Owens broken hand to recover just in time for the next game the Dallas Cowboys are slated to play, according to reports. MySportsbook.com, an football sportsbook, has posted football betting lines on TO playing.
Owens broke the bone leading to his right ring finger Sunday night and had a plate surgically attached to it Monday. Although Owens' hand was swollen and aching Wednesday, Dallas Cowboys coach Bill Parcells said he's optimistic the receiver will be back at work next week and catching passes a week from Sunday against the Tennessee Titans.
MySportsbook.com online sportsbook listed Terrell Owens with odds of 7-2 (or $7 paid out for every $2 bet) to return back for the game against Tennessee.
"I certainly wouldn't rule it out now," Parcells said, referring to Terrell Owens immediate return. "Maybe five days from now I might, but I wouldn't rule it out now. ... I know we're looking to try to get him moving around pretty good in the next day or so. So we'll see where we are."
Owens did not speak with reporters Wednesday, but said Sunday he'd be out two to four weeks. A return against the Titans would be 13 days after the surgery. The Cowboys were listed as an early -7 1/2 favorite vs. the Tennessee Titans for Week 4 at MySportsbook.com

Will Ohio State continue to run the table in College Football betting odds?
MySportsbook.com favors Buckeyes, Fighting Irish and Golden Bears in this weekend's big games.
NEW YORK, NY, Sept. 21 - My Sportsbook NCAA football fans: things are beginning to get really interesting on college football's national stage. Following last weekend's "Separation Saturday", which included five teams ranked in the top 15 dropping games, the BCS Championship picture is beginning to take shape - with Ohio State leading the charge. And, according to odds makers at MySportsbook.com, the number-one-ranked Buckeyes will continue their winning ways this weekend.
Revenge will be the name of the game in Columbus this Saturday, as Ohio State looks to even the score following last season's loss to Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions. Although Penn State are listed as 16.5 point underdogs, they are 11-10 all-time versus the Buckeyes. Paterno and the Lions, however, will have to shut down Heisman Trophy favorite Troy Smith who has thrown for 769 yards and seven touchdowns this season.
Speaking of revenge, Notre Dame will be out for some against Michigan State, following last year's 44 - 41 overtime loss to the Spartans in South Bend. The thirteenth-ranked Irish, listed as a 3-point favorite, will also be looking to avenge last Saturday's thrashing from the Michigan Wolverines. The Spartans, meanwhile, have won seven of the last nine match-ups against Notre Dame and are coming off an impressive 38-23 victory over Pittsburgh.
Out west, 22nd-ranked Arizona State will be battling for their first victory over 21st-ranked California since 2000. Although the Golden Bears are listed as 7.5-point favorites, the Sun Devils are 3-0, lead the nation in sacks with 18 and possess the Pac-10's leading passer in sophomore quarterback Rudy Carpenter.
