07/10/2010 - Moscow, Russia (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Eduardo Schwank and Horacio Zeballos won their doubles match Saturday to give Argentina the advantage against host Russia in their best-of-five Davis Cup quarterfinal.
The matchup was tied after Friday's opening singles rubbers, when David Nalbandian won for Argentina and Mikhail Youzhny triumphed for Russia.
On Saturday, Schwank and Zeballos prevailed in a 7-6 (9-7), 6-4, 6-7 (3-7), 6-1 decision over the Russian duo of Nikolay Davydenko and Igor Kunitsyn. The victory gives Argentina a 2-1 lead in the quarterfinal matchup and the edge heading into Sunday's reverse singles.
Leonardo Mayer, who lost to Youzhny in straight sets Friday, is currently scheduled to face Davydenko in Sunday's first match. He will have a chance to put Argentina, a three-time Davis Cup runner-up, into the semifinals.
Youzhny and Nalbandian are set to play in the day's second and potentially decisive rubber.
The winner here will face France or two-time defending champion Spain in September's semifinals.

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.''
