07/11/2010 - Anaheim, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Eric Hosmer went 4-for-5 with two RBI and two runs scored, leading the U.S. Futures team to a 9-1 rout of the World Futures team in the annual matchup.
Hosmer, 20, was the third overall pick of the 2008 draft by the Kansas City Royals and projects as a power-hitting first baseman. Hank Conger, an Angels catching prospect and the game's MVP, added a three-run homer for the hometown crowd, as the 2010 All-Star festivities officially got underway.
Jeremy Hellickson, one of the majors' top pitching prospects for the Rays, threw the first two innings, earning the win after giving up a run on two hits while fanning one.
Carlos Peguero, a Seattle prospect, went 2-for-4 and scored the lone run for the World team, while Eury Perez of the Washington organization also added two hits in defeat.
Simon Castro of San Diego received the loss after yielding two runs on two hits and a walk in the opening inning.
Domonic Brown, who could take over a starting spot in the Phillies' outfield sometime this season, opened the scoring in the first inning with an RBI infield single.
Hosmer added an RBI single in the same inning, although the World team got one back on Wilin Rosario's RBI fielder's choice groundout in the second.
Conger's home run in the fifth off Henderson Alvarez gave the U.S. a comfortable 5-1 cushion, and Grant Green of Oakland singled in another run in the sixth.
Cleveland's Lonnie Chisenhall added an RBI groundout in the eighth for a 7-1 margin. Hosmer and Austin Romine, a Yankees catching prospect, each added an RBI double later in the inning to account for the final margin.

MySportsbook.com Posts Heisman Trophy Odds
With 3,919 passing yards, 32 touchdowns and a mere seven interceptions last season, combined with a powerful South Bend Heisman legacy, odds makers at MySportsbook.com have given Notre Dame senior quarterback Brady Quinn the best Heisman Trophy odds at 5-2.
Quinn isn’t the only big man on campus this season. Oklahoma junior running back and 2004 Heisman runner-up Adrian Peterson, listed at 7-2, rushed for a combined 3,033 yards in his first two years as a college player and will give Quinn a run for his money.
This online sportsbook has also listed Troy Smith, Ohio State senior quarterback, as another strong favorite to win the 72nd Heisman Trophy. A 7-1 bet, Smith threw for 2,282 yards last season and also led the Buckeyes to a convincing 34-20 victory over Quinn and the Fighting Irish in last season’s Fiesta Bowl.
Current betting odds Heisman trophy are:
