Holliday's ground out to shortstop in the first chased home Adam Kennedy, who led off the ball game with a ground-rule double and took third on a grounder to second to give the Athletics the early edge. Garciaparra's RBI two-bagger in the top of the second made it a 2-0 game, before Hafner's solo blast got the Indians on the board in the home half.
Choo's RBI single in the third pulled the Tribe even and left runners on the corners with two outs. Hafner drew a walk to load the bases and Jhonny Peralta chopped a ground ball to third, but Bobby Crosby's throwing error allowed two more to come home to put Cleveland in front 4-2.
Jack Cust got one back for the A's with a run-scoring base hit in the top of the fourth. Then in the bottom half, an RBI double by Cabrera and a two-run double from Choo stretched the Indians lead to 7-3 and signaled the end for Cahill. Santiago Casilla took over and walked Hafner and served up an RBI single to Peralta.
Cleveland continued to pour it on in the fifth, putting five more on the board. Luis Valbuena and Ben Francisco each singled to get the inning started and both scored when Cabrera lined a two base hit to center. Later in the inning, Choo's three-run homer upped the hosts lead to 13-3.

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.
The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.
MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.
Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
