GamblersWorld - TIP OF THE DAY Sport: MLB Game: 6:00PM, Milwaukee Brewers vs. Philadelphia Phillies
Prediction: Milwaukee Brewers
Current Line: -130 Over/Under: 8 Reason: The Milwaukee Brewers and the Philadelphia Phillies will both be trying to pick up a win on Thursday when they battle at Citizens Bank Park in Game 2 of their NLDS. The Brewers will pin their hopes on the pitching of lefthander CC Sabathia in this game. Sabathia has a 17-10 record and a 2.70 ERA this season. The Phillies will counter Sabathia with Brett Myers. Righthander Myers has a 4.55 ERA to go along with a 10-13 record this season. Oddsmakers currently have the Brewers listed as 130-moneyline favorites versus the Phillies, while the game's total is sitting at 8. Cole Hamels fanned nine batters over eight scoreless innings on Wednesday as the Phillies defeated the Brewers 3-1 in Game 1 of this series. The Phillies won that game as -220 favorites, while the four runs went UNDER the posted over/under (8.5). Chase Utley drove in two runs and scored once for the Phillies. Brad Lidge struggled in finishing off the ninth for the save. Ray Durham scored the only run for the Brewers after a throwing error from Utley. Yovani Gallardo gave up three runs over four innings in the loss.

Pittsburgh/South Florida Over 51
When you bet on Pittsburgh you never know which Panthers team will show up. This is the most unpredictable team to bet on in the nation so hopefully tonight they continue that trend and give USF a game. South Florida is one of those schools that need to win and win big for style points. This team knows that even if they run the table they would need a lot of outside help. Pittsburgh allowed a ton of points to Syracuse and will have no answer for South Florida. When the Bulls are on defense they will be without two starters one being George Selvie who is the heart of the defense. Without that leadership I expect Pitt to score more. Look for both teams to score enough to push this over the total.
