Ihle announces re-election bid
By Lorna Hart
Special to the Sentinel

POMEROY — “I’ve been
pleased to serve two terms as
commissioner, and there are
still a few things I would like to
do, so if you think I’ve done a
good job so far, please sign my
petition to become a candidate.”
With those words, Meigs
County Commissioner Tim Ihle
formally announced his intent
to seek re-election during the
Republican Bean Dinner at Mulberry Community Center last
Thursday.
Ihle plans to be on the ballot
in the May 8 primary, and said
the petition is not due until February 7, but since he had made
the decision to run, he wanted
to get started obtaining the necessary signatures.
“I think we (referring to commissioners Randy Smith and
Mike Bartrum) make a good
team, and I guess I would like
to keep the team together a little longer. I feel we have accomplished a lot so far, but as I said,

there is still work to be done.”
Ihle is a Meigs County native
who grew up in Racine and
worked on farms in Letart
Falls during the summer. After
graduating from Southern High
School, he worked in the county
before relocating brieﬂy to
Colorado. He returned to pursue housing construction with
Valley Lumber, then pursued a
career as a brakeman for Conrail in Pennsylvania and New
York.
When Ihle and his wife Jane
returned to Meigs, they built
and ran the By the Way grocery
story for eight years before
returning again to construction.
Ihle made a successful bid for
the ofﬁce of County Commission in 2010 and took ofﬁce in
2011.
In addition to his responsibilities as commissioner, he and
his wife “own and operate and
share a farm with beef cattle,
riding horses and lots of wild
critters” near Langsville.

Sentinel.

scenario is that you burn the cookies, then head
out for more, but the battery is dead on your car.
You get out your cell to call for a tow, drop your
phone in the road and a dump truck runs over it.
This sort of day would become your routine day
if you had the evil eye curse.
If you’re still not sure if you need protection
from the evil eye, you can try the test popular in
Sicilian culture. Place three drops of olive oil in
water, and if the oil forms an eye shape; you do.
If not, you are in the clear. To rid yourself of the
curse Sicilian-style, make a cross symbol on your
palms, say your name and repeat the Our Father,
one Hail Mary and a Glory Be three times.
Of course, depending on your beliefs, you
may wish to invoke Archangel Michael’s help
since he is the leader of God’s army and defends
in battle. Salt sprinkled by doors, sage blown
around windows, and white candles lit with the
clear intent to be protected from negativity is
also effective whether from negative thoughts
or from out-right devious, harmful wishes from
others.
Each culture has its own evil protection symbol. The Jews have the Hand of Miriam, which
is a blue hand with an eye in the middle; the
Aztecs depicted the Thunderbird to ward evil
away and the Sicilians display the Corna, the
horns of the moon goddess.
Whatever you choose to use, remember, the
intent behind your prayer is what makes the
symbol or the object powerful. Your faith is the
power behind the protection.
Before the paranormal events described in my
book, “Rain No Evil,” I had limited experience
with the spirit world and toured my share of
haunted houses in joyful expectation of a good
scare. I carved grisly faces on pumpkins, not
knowing that I’d see a carved demon’s face in my
very own mirror years later.
I still get a thrill out of an unexpected, “Boo,”
or two and relish the feel of pumpkin guts
between my gooey ﬁngers, but I also pray and
purge and protect myself and my loved ones on
a daily basis. I project peace and protection with
pure intent.
The Halloween season screeches of fear. Don’t
let you fears become your reality like mine did. I
encourage you to ﬁnd a way to protect yourself,
one that vibrates in your comfort zone whether
that includes symbols or superstitions, angels or
prayers.
Enjoy sneaking a piece of your kid’s or grand
kid’s candy, jump from the bushes with a chainsaw and chuckle, but take seriously your responsibility to those dear children and yourself to
protect what you love from that (usually) invisible, evil force that is more real than the stuffed
ghost hanging on your front door.

you do? You
have such
pretty people begging for

but feel nothing. What
do you do? In a sausagefactory city, you produce
works of art but feel
worse than ever. What do
you do? You can manipulate the entertainment
capital of the world into
Oscar after Oscar after
Oscar until you feel like
God but even that’s nothing. What do you do?
In Hollywood, the
answer is: Don’t ask.
It would be nice if
open secrets about Hollywood’s many sociopathic,
perverse beasts raised a
“How did we let this happen?” kind of question,
but sorry, delving is not
our thing. Our business
takes place under ofﬁce
headsets, over acoustically dangerous restaurant

tables, and we just want
to — need to — be in
the know enough to say,
“Oh my God,” make the
most convenient joke and
then whisper the open
secret to someone else.
Our electrical contractors and insurance agents
need to know too.
It would be nice if blatantly deviant behavior
goosed us into coughing up some hairball of
human reﬂection. Maybe
a slightly miffed “Why?”
But no, no, no — we
don’t chase epiphanies
down Burton Way. The
open secret itself is all
the epiphany we need,
thank you.
It would be nice if we
recognized our own complicity in monstrous conduct but really, a perfect
rationalization is just sitting there: With so many
open secrets hanging
around, we’ve built up an
immunity. (“Really? He’s
a predatory deviant too?
Anyway, yeah, they’re
bringing back ‘Roseanne.’”)
Right up there with
movies, TV shows and

music, dirt is one more
product of the entertainment industry, and everyone’s a consumer. Even
your electrical contractor
and insurance agent. But
especially us.
It would be nice if we
indicted ourselves in our
crimes against humanity
but — well, let’s take a
shot at that one.
Years ago, at an industry screening, I heard
a rumor about the very
subject of our current
(exploded) open secret.
Let’s just say it was horrible and explicit and
wolﬁsh but was conveyed
in a perfectly matter-offact tone.
“Oh,” I said.
The movie was really
great and at dinner the
next night, I told a lot
of friends they shouldn’t
wait for the DVD. “Go
see it at a really big
theater. It’s what movies
should be. And by the
way, I heard this rumor
…“
“Really? Guess I’m out
of the loop. Thinking
maybe we should split
some tiramisu.”

Guilty, your honor.
It would’ve been nice
if, before this month
when some of us ﬁnally
copped a plea, we’d taken
a second to visualize
the actual open secret in
action. It would’ve been
nice if we’d gone deep
enough to place ourselves inside the suites at
the Peninsula and let the
revulsion hit us, rather
than just grabbing the
open secret and converting it into currency.
It would have been
nice if we’d stopped to
think, “You know, my
electrical contractor and
insurance agent don’t
really need to know how
far we go.” It would
have been nice if we’d
imagined the day all this
human wreckage would
blow up, and gotten
beyond wondering which
rehab facility would be
the logical choice for this
particularly nasty case.
But then, this isn’t a
nice place.

Sprague has been serving as State Representative since 2011, and

partnerships as a way to
address the opioid epidemic, saying he would
use social impact bonds

Impact bonds are a
contract with the public
sector to explore and
develop new treatments.
If the results have a positive outcome, the participant receives a return
on their investment. If
not, the state pays nothing.
“We need innovative
ideas to ﬁnd a solution to this crisis, and
I believe social impact
bonds are an opportunity to do so.”

LONDONDERRY, Ohio — The top seed for a
reason.
The Meigs volleyball team ran into a buzzsaw
on Saturday in the Division III sectional ﬁnal
at Larry Jordan Gymnasium in Ross County, as
No. 1 seed Southeastern claimed a 3-0 win for
its 20th victory of the season.
The Lady Marauders (10-14) dropped the
opening game by a 25-5 margin, but improved
by 10 points in the second game, falling by a
25-15 count. The Lady Panthers (20-3) capped
off the 3-0 victory with a 25-8 win in the third
game.
For the match, Meigs was held without an ace,
while committing a total of six serving errors.
The Maroon and Gold collected 11 kills in total,
while recording nine hitting errors.
At the net, the Lady Marauders were led
by junior Kassidy Betzing with ﬁve kills and
four blocks. Marissa Noble had two kills in the
match, Hannah Durst added one kill and one
block, while Maddie Fields, Maci Hood and Saelym Larsen chipped in with a kill apiece.
The guests earned a total of 12 digs, led by
Betzing and Maddie Hendricks with four each.
Ella Skeens led the Lady Panthers with 15
kills and two blocks. Jessica Bolte was next with
12 kills, followed by Skylar Hice with seven
kills.
Southeastern moves on to the district semiﬁnal on Wednesday at Waverly High School,
where the Lady Panthers will face Fairland.
Meigs ﬁnishes with a double-digit win total
for the second straight year and will have to say
farewell to three seniors, Paige Denney, Maddie
Hendricks and McKenzie Ohlinger.
The Maroon and Gold are now 5-5 in their
last 10 postseason contests.

WVU survives Baylor
WACO, Texas (AP) — Nobody has to tell West
Virginia coach Dana Holgerson that Baylor can
put up points in a hurry. The Mountaineers gave
up 62 and 73 points in their ﬁrst two trips to
Waco.
But Holgerson didn’t expect his team would
need to stop a two-point conversion and recover
an onside kick to win after carrying a 25-point
lead into the fourth quarter all while facing a
freshman quarterback.
That’s exactly what happened, though. Xavier
Preston sacked Charlie Brewer on a two-point
try with 17 seconds left and No. 23 West Virginia
withstood a furious fourth-quarter Baylor rally to
escape with a 38-36 win Saturday night.
“At the end of the day we made a play at the
end, and then we recovered the onside kick,”
Holgerson said. “That’s two years in a row we’ve
recovered an onside kick against these guys to
seal the games. I’m proud of the way the guys did
that. So we’ll take the win, and we’re excited to
get out for the ﬁrst time with a win.”
Will Grier threw for ﬁve touchdowns to pad
his national lead with 26 for the Mountaineers
(5-2, 3-1 Big 12), who led 38-13 at the start of the
fourth quarter.
That’s when Brewer entered the game for
Baylor and began to turn things around with
his scrambling ability. He was 8-for-13 passing
for 109 yards and two touchdowns and fellow
freshman Treston Ebner had 109 yards and two
touchdowns receiving and a 40-yard scoring run.
Ebner’s 9-yard TD catch from Brewer drew Baylor
within two, but Preston got immediate pressure
on the two-point try and ended Baylor’s chances.

MURFREESBORO,
Tenn. — High ﬁves.
Marshall produced
ﬁve touchdowns, scored
points on ﬁve different
occasions in the ﬁrst half
and picked up its ﬁfth
straight victory on Friday
night during a 38-10 decision over host Middle
Tennessee State in a Conference USA East Division contest at Johnny
‘Red’ Floyd Stadium.
The Thundering Herd
(6-1, 3-0 CUSA) led
wire-to-wire and became
bowl eligible with a
relentless ground attack
that churned out 198
rushing yards and four
touchdowns, not to mention a defensive effort
that produced a pick-six
and held the Blue Raiders
(3-5, 1-3) to just 273 total
yards of offense.
The Green and White
took the opening drive
of the game and covered
75 yards in eight plays,
which led to a 7-0 lead
following a Tyler King
15-yard scamper at the
10:55 mark.
MTSU responded on
its ﬁrst drive by marching 51 yards in eight
plays, which ended with
a successful 50-yard ﬁeld

goal by Canon Rooker at
the 7:25 mark for a 7-3
contest.
The Blue and White
were facing a third-andnine at their own 19 near
the start of the second
quarter, but Artis Johnson stepped in front of
a John Urzua pass and
returned the interception
17 yards to the house —
giving the guests a 14-3
edge with 13:24 left in
the half.
On the ﬁrst snap
of the ensuing drive,
Omari Cobb forced and
recovered a fumble on a
completed pass — giving
Marshall the ball at the
MTSU 18-yard line.
Three plays later,
Keion Davis gave MU a
21-3 advantage following a 9-yard run at the
11:48 mark of the second
period.
Both teams traded
punts, then the Blue Raiders strung together an
eight-play, 80-yard drive
that ended with a 9-yard
TD pass from Urzua to
Richie James. The hosts’
only TD and ﬁnal score of
the night made it a 21-10
contest with 7:03 left.
The Herd retaliated with an eight-play,
63-yard drive on their
ensuing possession that
ended with a 1-yard

plunge by Davis for a
28-10 edge with 3:44 left.
After MU forced a
punt, the guests covered
53 yards in 10 plays
before adding to their
lead. Kaare Vedvik converted a 25-yard ﬁeld goal
attempt with 17 seconds
left, giving the Herd a
31-10 advantage at the
break.
MTSU managed only
91 yards of offense during
its ﬁve second half possessions, which included
two punts, two drives
that ended on downs and
a missed 43-yard ﬁeld
goal.
After a scoreless third
quarter, Marshall completed the 38-10 outcome
with a six-play, 38-yard
drive that was capped by
a 1-yard run by King with
12:47 left in regulation.
The Herd picked up
its third straight road
victory, a ﬁrst for the program since the 2015 campaign. The guests are 5-0
in games this year when
scoring ﬁrst, and the
28-point margin of victory was also Marshall’s
largest of the season.
MU outgained the
hosts by a 366-273 overall
margin and claimed a
21-15 edge in ﬁrst downs.
The Green and White
were also plus-2 in turn-

over differential.
King ran for 129 yards
and two touchdowns on
23 carries, while Davis
added 40 yards and two
TD runs in the triumph.
Chase Litton was 16-of24 passing for 168 yards.
Marcel Williams led the
MU wideouts with four
catches for 46 yards, followed by Tyre Brady with
four grabs for 22 yards.
Chase Hancock and
Malik Gant led the
defense with ﬁve tackles apiece. The guests
recorded six sacks and
eight tackles for loss,
with Channing Hames
leading the charge with
two QB sacks.
Brad Anderson led
MTSU with 51 rushing
yards on 13 carries, while
Urzua was 14-of-30 passing for 220 yards with a
pick and TD toss. James
led the hosts with ﬁve
receptions for 37 yards.
D.J. Sanders led the
Blue Raider defense with
seven tackles. MTSU had
seven tackles for loss, but
did not record a sack.
Marshall returns to
action Saturday when it
hosts Florida International in a Conference USA
contest at 2:30 p.m.

Astros vs Dodgers in World Series
By Ben Walker
Associated Press

Big-time aces Clayton
Kershaw and Justin Verlander. Playoff boppers
Jose Altuve and Justin
Turner.
A pair of 100-win teams
for the ﬁrst time in nearly
a half-century. Hollywood
Walk of Fame vs. Texans
who wear the star. A little
extra Magic, plus Nolan
back in the fast lane.
This is one hot World
Series — the Houston
Astros, fresh off a Game 7
victory over the Yankees,
taking on the narrowly
favored Los Angeles
Dodgers, well rested after
a postseason romp.
Could be real steamy,
too. It’s supposed to be
almost 100 degrees at
Dodger Stadium for the
opener Tuesday night,
maybe the hottest temperature ever at a World
Series game.
“Now we chase the
ultimate prize,” Astros
manager A.J. Hinch said.
“There’s two teams standing. It’s a race to four
wins now. At the start
there’s a race to 11, we’ve
got seven of them down.”
At least the familiar
October chill that makes
players and fans shiver
shouldn’t be an issue
outdoors in sun-baked
California or under the

retractable roof at Minute
Maid Park.
Not that young stars
Cody Bellinger and Carlos Correa would mind,
nor would old pros Carlos
Beltran and Chase Utley,
nor top starters Dallas
Keuchel and Yu Darvish.
Because a chance to
win a ring doesn’t come
very often — these teams
that have already played
more than 700 games
against each other over
the years already know
that.
The Astros have never
won the crown. They’re
playing for a whole
region, with the Houston
Strong patches on their
uniforms representing
an area hit hard by Hurricane Harvey.
“There’s a lot of people
that are really hurting
right now in this city,”
said Verlander, the ALCS
MVP. “And it gives the
city something to rally
around and gives people
something to cheer for
that otherwise may not
have a lot to be hopeful
for.”
The Dodgers haven’t
been in the World Series
since 1988, when Kirk
Gibson’s bat, Orel Hershiser’s arm and Tommy
Lasorda’s moves outdid
Oakland for the crown.
Now with Lakers great
Magic Johnson as a part-

owner, this LA team that
led the majors with 104
wins is hoping to bring
back the glory days that
began in Brooklyn.
“I just want to win a
World Series,” Kershaw
said after the Dodgers
dethroned the Chicago
Cubs in Game 5 of the
NL Championship Series.
“I know more than anybody how hard it is to get
there. So, I’m deﬁnitely
not taking this one for
granted.”
Said mercurial outﬁelder Yasiel Puig: “The
trophy’s coming soon.”
The Astros, the major
leagues’ highest-scoring
team this year, have never
even won a World Series
game. They only time
they made it this far was
2005, when a club that
included Jeff Bagwell,
Craig Biggio, Roger Clemens and Andy Pettitte
got swept by the White
Sox.
In fact, a World Series
prize is the one piece of
hardware missing from
the trophy case from the
Lone Star State. Texas
teams have won the
Super Bowl and championships in the NBA,
NHL, college football
and men’s and women’s
basketball, but never in
baseball.
Under the leadership
of executive Nolan Ryan,

the Texas Rangers came
within one strike in 2011
before losing to St. Louis.
The Ryan Express, who
once pitched a no-hitter
for Houston against the
Dodgers, is currently an
Astros exec.
The Astros posted 101
wins this year — not
since Baltimore (108)
and Cincinnati (102) in
1970 has the World Series
matched teams who
reached triple-digits.
These teams last met
in 2015, when the Astros
swept a three-game series
at home. But they’d seen
a lot of each other in the
past.
Overall, the Dodgers are 388-323 vs. the
Astros. Houston debuted
as the Colt .45s as a
National League expansion team in 1962, beat
the Dodgers in a onegame playoff for the
NL West championship
in 1980 and eventually
moved to the AL in 2013.
That ﬁrst year in the
AL, the young Astros got
pounded and lost 111
times. But with smart
drafts and player development, Houston emerged
as a power. Hinch’s club
capped its rise by beating
Boston in the AL Division Series, then stopping
the Yankees 4-0 Saturday
night in Game 7 of the
ALCS.

Truex wins with heavy heart in Kansas elimination race
KANSAS CITY, Kan.
(AP) — Martin Truex
Jr. didn’t feel a sense of
urgency to win Sunday’s
race at Kansas Speedway
because of its playoff
implications, not with his
spot in the next round
safe following a victory
at Charlotte.
No, the sense of
urgency was much more
personal.
Truex learned overnight that one of the Furniture Row Racing team’s
crew members, Jim
Watson, died of a heart
attack while in town for
the race. So with a heavy
heart, Truex climbed
into his No. 78 Toyota
and overcame two early
mistakes to win a wild
playoff elimination race.
“We were racing for
Jim today,” Truex said
after emerging from his
car. “He was a heck of a
guy.”
Kurt Busch ﬁnished
second before a wave
of playoff contenders
headed by Ryan Blaney,
whose car failed postqualifying inspection and
was sent to the back. He
quickly worked his way
through the ﬁeld and ﬁnished third, easily making it within the cutoff
line.
Chase Elliott was
fourth and Denny Hamlin ﬁfth to punch their
tickets to the next round.
Kevin Harvick ﬁnished
eighth to stay alive heading to Martinsville, while
Kyle Busch ﬁnished 10th
and Jimmie Johnson 11th
— both of them also
making the cutoff line.
Brad Keselowski was
13th after his win last
week at Talladega sent
him to the next round.
Kyle Larson blew his
engine to spoil his chances of advancing, while a
penalty on Matt Kenseth
for having too many crew
members over the pit
wall following a wreck
ended his championship

hopes.
Jamie McMurray and
Ricky Stenhouse Jr. also
were eliminated from the
playoffs.
“It’s a disappointing
way to ﬁnish our race
and probably our season,” said Larson, who
had a 33-point buffer
coming into the race. “I
guess it’s sinking in as
the second pass.”
Truex had dominated
at Kansas for years
before ﬁnally breaking
through with a victory
in the spring. And while
he had nothing to lose
Sunday, there was still a
sense that Truex wanted
to win his seventh race
this season for his late
crew member and the
rest of their team.
“Still pretty surreal at
this point,” crew chief
Cole Pearn said. “We
were all focused on what
we had to do today. That
was the best we could do
for Jim. He was a true
racer in the purest form.”
Truex is the ﬁrst driver
in series history with
four straight wins on 1
1/2-mile tracks.
“I can’t say enough
about all these guys,” he
said. “Just really proud of
them, and deﬁnitely we
were racing with a heavy
heart. Jim was a great
worker and put a lot of
speed in these Toyotas.”
Larson was the ﬁrst of
the 12 remaining playoff
contenders whose chances were scuttled when he
dropped a cylinder early
in the race. He tried to
limp on, but his engine
ﬁnally let go.
Still, Larson held a
ﬂeeting hope of advancing when Erik Jones triggered a multi-car wreck
on a restart with 70 laps
to go, collecting McMurray and causing damage
to Kenseth. The former
champion thought he
would be able to continue when he reached
pit road, but seven crew

members hopped over
the wall for repairs —
one more than is allowed
under NASCAR’s damaged vehicle policy.
The penalty for the
violation is an immediate
parking.

“I don’t know what
the rules are. It seems
like we have a lot of stuff
that is changed so often
I can’t keep up with it,”
Kenseth said. “You’re not

able to race anymore? I
just don’t get it.”
Larson still had to
hope Johnson, who
began the day on the
bubble, would falter
down the stretch. But

Steelers shut down Bengals, 29-14
PITTSBURGH (AP)
— JuJu Smith-Schuster
hid his eyes, counted to
10 and went looking for
Le’Veon Bell.
The Pittsburgh Steelers rookie wide receiver
found his team’s star
running back crouching
behind the goalpost,
then proceeded to chase
Bell all the way to the
sideline as part of a hastily planned touchdown
celebration.
“That was just us
being dramatic,” Bell
said with a smile.
In a good way for
once.
Smith-Schuster never
did catch Bell, by the
way . Now he knows
how the rest of the AFC
North feels about the
surging Steelers.

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (28) is tackled by
Pittsburgh Steelers defensive end Cameron Heyward (97) with
help from Anthony Chickillo (56) and Mike Hilton (31) during the
first half of an NFL football game in Pittsburgh Sunday.

they’re playing, every
game counts,” said Bengals wide receiver A.J.
Green after being held to
three receptions for 41
yards. “It’s tough. It sets
us behind even more.”
Chris Boswell added a
Heinz Field-record ﬁve
ﬁeld goals for Pittsburgh,
which posted its highest
points total and appears
to be rounding into form
as Halloween nears.
Two weeks after
openly questioning
whether he still “had
it,” Roethlisberger put
together easily his best
half of the season. He
hit Antonio Brown for
a 7-yard touchdown to
cap Pittsburgh’s ﬁrst
drive, found a wide-open
Smith-Schuster for a
31-yard score in the second quarter and threw a
perfectly placed 23-yard
deep out to Brown late
in the second quarter to
spark a drive that ended
with a 24-yard Chris
Boswell ﬁeld goal that
put the Steelers up 20-14

at the half.
Dalton and Cincinnati
appeared ready to keep
pace early. He connected
with Brandon LaFell and
Tyler Kroft with ﬁrst-half
touchdowns, but when
the Steelers turned the
pressure up, the Bengals
crumbled.
Cincinnati managed
just one ﬁrst down in
the second half, much
of which Dalton spent
on the run or throwing
into trouble. Joe Haden
collected his ﬁrst interception with Pittsburgh
when he made a juggling
grab that set up a ﬁeld
goal by Boswell. William
Gay added one later in
the third quarter on an
ugly overthrow by Dalton.

BOSTON (AP) — The Boston Red
Sox hired Houston Astros bench coach
Alex Cora as manager Sunday, turning to a player from their 2007 World
Series championship roster to help the
team out of its current playoff slump.
“Returning to the Red Sox and the
city of Boston is a dream come true
for me and my family,” Cora said in
a statement released by the team.
“I look forward to working towards
the ultimate goal of winning another
championship for this city and its
great fans.”
The Red Sox announced the hire
Sunday, a day after Cora’s Astros
eliminated the New York Yankees in
the AL Championship Series. With
two days off before Houston opens the
World Series against the Los Angeles
Dodgers, Boston had a chance to hire
Cora without running afoul of baseball’s ban on major moves during the
Series.
Cora, 42, replaces John Farrell, who

led the Red Sox to the 2013 title and
in the last two years claimed the ﬁrst
back-to-back AL East championships
in franchise history. But Boston also
ﬁnished last twice in Farrell’s tenure,
and the ballclub has won just one playoff game since winning it all in his ﬁrst
season.
“In Alex, we have found a natural
leader to guide our clubhouse,” Red
Sox owner John Henry said. “His baseball acumen and his ability to think
strategically are uncommon for someone his age. We could not have found a
better match for our players, our front
ofﬁce and for where we intend to go
over the coming years.”
A native of Puerto Rico, Cora is the
ﬁrst Hispanic manager for a franchise
that was the last in the major leagues
to ﬁeld a black player. The Red Sox
faced renewed racial scrutiny this
season after Orioles outﬁelder Adam
Jones reported being subjected to
racial slurs at Fenway Park.

two scores, Bell added
192 total yards and Pittsburgh’s defense dominated the Cincinnati
Bengals in the second
half of a 29-14 victory on
Sunday.
A bit of a hot mess
after getting upset at
home by Jacksonville
two weeks ago, the Steelers (5-2) have ﬁgured
things out quickly. They
shut down Kansas City
on the road last Sunday
and followed it up by
suffocating Cincinnati in
the second half to move
into a tie for the AFC’s
best record as their onceagain promising season
nears the midway point.
Pittsburgh held the
Bengals (2-4) to 19 yards
over the ﬁnal two quarters, intercepting Andy
Dalton twice and sacking him four times.
“The sky’s the limit,”
Steelers linebacker Bud
Dupree said. “Not even
the sky’s the limit. We’re
not going to put a ceiling
on our head. We’re going
to keep going up.”
Cincinnati came in
looking to add some
street cred to their
resurgence after their 0-3
start, but instead spent
the second half reverting
to the kind of ineffective offense that got Ken
Zampese ﬁred two weeks
into the season. Dalton
ﬁnished 17 of 30 for
140 yards and the two
picks while playing on a
twisted ankle.
Dalton’s ﬁnal pass
symbolized a frustrating
afternoon. Facing fourth
down and trailing by two
scores with 5 minutes
left, Dalton scrambled to
his left and then simply
threw the ball away to
seal Cincinnati’s eighth
loss in its last night
meetings with Pittsburgh.

to the Steelers, the way
