07/10/2010 - Split, Croatia (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Janko Tipsarevic and Nenad Zimonjic took an easy doubles win Saturday to give Serbia an advantage over Croatia in the best-of-five Davis Cup quarterfinal between the rival nations.
Tipsarevic and Zimonjic took a 6-3, 6-2, 6-4 victory over the Croatian tandem of Marin Cilic and Ivan Dodig, giving Serbia a 2-1 edge in the matchup.
Serbian Novak Djokovic and Cilic had won singles matches Friday, and the two are scheduled to face off in Sunday's first reverse singles rubber. The world No. 2 Djokovic will have the opportunity to put Serbia in its first semifinal at the Davis Cup, while Cilic will look to win to keep Croatia alive in its quest for a second title.
Sunday's second singles rubber is set to be contested by Croatia's Ivan Ljubicic and Serbia's Viktor Troicki.
The winner of this matchup will meet Chile or the 2009 runner-up Czech Republic in the semifinals in September.

El Duque expected to throw Tuesday
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- New York Mets pitcher Orlando Hernandez, sidelined at spring training because of arthritis in his neck, is expected to resume throwing on Tuesday.
Hernandez received a cortisone shot Thursday after leaving camp and returning to New York to have his neck examined. The 41-year-old right-hander is penciled in as the team's No. 2 starter behind Tom Glavine.
El Duque's health is a major issue for the Mets, who won the NL East in 2007 and came within one victory of the World Series. Their aging and unsettled rotation is a big question mark this year.
MySportsbook.com has the Mets as -110 favorites to repeat as NL East champions odds.
Hernandez went 11-11 with a 4.66 ERA last season, including 9-7 with a 4.09 ERA in 20 starts after the Mets acquired him from Arizona in late May. But he missed the playoffs because of a torn calf muscle.
New York already is without Pedro Martinez, out until at least midseason following rotator cuff surgery. Among those competing for starting jobs are prospects Mike Pelfrey, Philip Humber and Jason Vargas, plus veterans Chan Ho Park, Jorge Sosa and Aaron Sele.
Notes: Mets manager Willie Randolph is excited about two new utility players he could have on his bench: Damion Easley and David Newhan. ''Their value is really all over the place,'' Randolph said. Easley can play anywhere in the infield and could be used as an emergency outfielder, though Randolph said he would prefer to keep the veteran in the infield. Newhan, meanwhile, can play second base, third or any outfield position for the Mets. ''I love versatility,'' Randolph said. ''I love guys that can give me options when I need them to step in.''

Chiefs' Treen Green out for Sunday's game
How long Trent Green will remain sidelined is unknown. Coach Herm Edwards said Monday he will miss a second straight start Sunday when the Chiefs host the San Francisco 49ers.
