06/26/2010 - Loudon, NH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Kyle Busch put on a dominating performance in Saturday's New England 200 to become the first repeat Nationwide race winner at New Hampshire Motor Speedway and set a new record for most career laps led in NASCAR's second-tier series.
Busch, who also won at New Hampshire one year ago, led 126 of 200 laps, but had to hold off a hard-charging Brad Keselowski in the closing laps for his sixth win of the season and the 36th of his Nationwide career, which placed him in a tie with Kevin Harvick for second on the series' all-time race winners list. Mark Martin holds the record with 48 wins.
There had been 23 different winners in as many Nationwide races at New Hampshire before Busch snapped the streak. Busch has now led 8,117 laps in 186 career Nationwide starts.
Keselowski, the pole sitter and current points leader, finished second, while Carl Edwards, Joey Logano and series regular Trevor Bayne completed the top- five. Keselowski's point lead stretched to 247 over Edwards.

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.''
