Joe Buck has Artie Lang throw him under the bus (though the video has been removed by HBO), David Letterman attacks Sarah Palin’s 14-year-old daughter (but finally apologizes) and Bill Maher turns on Barack Obama, all the above in the name of publicity.

The top sports betting baseball service GodsTips is throwing the sportsbooks under the bus and getting publicity with winner after winner. Bookmakers are using worse language than the Shaker Heights Yearbook cover.

Today in the Daily Sports Roundup: The Royals send out their ace to take on the Diamondbacks, and the Yankees turn to an ice-cold pitcher against the Nationals.

College World Series…

The College World Series odds still take center stage today as Virginia is favorite over Arkansas.

Meeting up on the diamond . . .

Zack Greinke (8-2, 1.72 ERA) and his Royals will play host to Max Scherzer (3-4, 3.63 ERA) and the Diamondbacks on Wednesday night. Righthander Greinke has slowed down considerably since his hot start to the season, allowing 11 earned runs over his last 19 1-3 innings pitched (for one loss and two no-decisions). Righthander Scherzer didn’t allow a run in either of his past two starts against the Padres and Giants, surrendering just six hits over his 12 2-3 innings.

As well, the Yankees will try to coax something out of struggling starter Chien-Ming Wang (0-4, 14.34 ERA) on Wednesday when they host the Nationals and John Lannan (3-5, 3.51 ERA). Righthander Wang lasted just 2 2-3 innings in a loss to the Red Sox last time out, giving up four earned runs on six hits. Lefthander Lannan has been a bright spot for the lowly Nationals this season; Lannan has surrendered three or fewer earned runs in nine of his last 10 starts.

Rounding out the MLB schedule for Wednesday: the White Sox at the Cubs, the Angels at San Francisco, Toronto at Philadelphia, the Mets at Baltimore, Milwaukee at Cleveland, Florida at Boston, Houston at Texas, Pittsburgh at Minnesota, Detroit at St. Louis, Tampa Bay at Colorado, Seattle at San Diego, Oakland at the Dodgers, and Atlanta at Cincinnati. Javier Vazquez (4-5, 3.31 ERA) starts for the Braves, and Micah Owings (3-7, 4.64 ERA) goes for the Reds.

Rounding out the Roundup . . .

Elsewhere, there’s just one game on the WNBA schedule for Wednesday night, with Minnesota at Phoenix. The Mercury have been unbeatable at home so far this year – going 3-0 both straight-up and against-the-spread – and they’re coming off a 106-95 home win over Sacramento on Saturday. Diana Taurasi had 31 points for Phoenix in that victory, while Nicole Ohlde sat out with a foot injury.

US Open golf odds…

The Vegas odds to win the US Open have no surprises as Tiger Woods is the overwhelming favorite at 3-2 with Phil Mickelson next at 12-1.
