Meigs man acquitted of all charges By Lorna Hart lhart@civitasmedia.com POMEROY — A jury handed down a not guilty verdict Wednesday in the case against a Meigs County man who had been charged with felonious assault and endangering children. Thaddeus Bumgardner, 32, of Middleport, was acquitted of the charges after a six-day trial that began June 28 —more than two years after the alleged incident. The trial endured delays due to the Fourth of July holiday and a witness under a doctor’s care, who was not allowed in court to testify until July 5. Meigs County sheriff’s deputies first began the investigation in June 2014 when Bumgardner’s 5-month-old son was flown to Cabell Huntington Hospital in Huntington, W.Va., “due to severe bruising and injuries consistent with abuse,” a news release from the sheriff’s office stated. According to earlier reports, a search was conducted on Bumgardner’s home after the child was taken to the hospital. “No one in the house reported the injuries,” Sheriff Keith Wood said. Bumgardner was arraigned in Meigs County Court on June 25, 2014, for alleged felonious assault and was granted release on his See CHARGES | 2 Belle of Cincinnati returning to Point By Beth Sergent bsergent@civitasmedia.com — NEWS Obituaries: 2 Business: 3 Opinion: 4 Weather: 5 — SPORTS Golf: 6 Baseball: 6 — FEATURES Television: 7 Classified: 8 Comics: 9 own recognizance, against the recommendation of the Meigs County Prosecuting Attorney’s office.

They will be greatly missed when Jurors say DuPont acted with malice COLUMBUS (AP) — The DuPont chemical company acted with malice by dumping chemicaltainted water from its West Virginia plant into the Ohio River, a federal jury said Wednesday in awarding $5.1 million in compensatory damages to a man who developed cancer. The jury will meet Thursday to begin deciding the amount of punitive damages to be handed out. There are 3,500 lawsuits alleging a link between illnesses and the Wilmington, Delawarebased company’s discharging of the chemical C8 into the river. The ill man, David Freeman, of Washington County, said he got testicular cancer because of C8, which was used to make Teflon. Freeman, 56, said in his lawsuit against the DuPont Co. that residents along the river suffered from C8 in tainted drinking water, which he blamed for his sickness. DuPont maintains there were only small amounts of C8 in drinking water, not enough to be harmful. It declined to comment on the verdict Wednesday. Freeman’s case is among the first few cases to be heard. In one now under appeal, jurors awarded $1.6 million to a woman who got cancer. A former spokeswoman for DuPont’s Ohio River plant in Parkersburg, West Virginia, testified she never knew of any concerns about C8 being dumped into the river when she told residents the water was safe to drink.

In Congress, Republican leaders who favor a larger force said Obama’s new plan was preferable to the old one, but they criticized him for not keeping the full 9,800. Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said the partial drawdown would increase the dangers for remaining troops, calling it “more a political decision by President Obama than a military one.” Yet some Democrats, frustrated by the inability to fully end the war, said they were disappointed — for the opposite reason. “Today, the longest war in American history just got longer,” said Rep. Jim McGovern, D-Mass. Ultimately, it will be up to the next president to decide the level of U.S. involvement. Democrat Hillary Clinton has aligned herself with Obama’s handling of Afghanistan, while Republican Donald Trump has remained vague and has criticized Obama for revealing too much publicly about deployment decisions. In Kabul, Afghan President Ashraf Ghani applauded Obama’s decision. A brief statement from his spokesman called it “a sign of continued partnership between our nations to fight our common enemy and strengthen regional stability.” But the Taliban said the U.S. action would only prolong the war. “What Obama could not do with 149,000 troops, he will not be able to do Drawdown slowdown President Barack Obama has said the U.S. military will slow its departure from Afghanistan, where troops have operated since 2001. 2010/2011 peak: 100,000 troops 100 thousand 80 60 Projected for 2017: 8,400 40 20 0 '01 Previously projected: 5,500 '03 '05 '07 '09 '11 SOURCES: U.S. Central Command; White House with 8,400 troops,” Taliban spokesman Zabiullah Mujahid said on Twitter.

A bike run offers the opportunity for a relaxing bike tour of the area, fellowship with other riders and the chance to help a local charity. In a nutshell, a charity motorcycle run (tour) generally goes like this. Each rider pays a registration fee of some kind, either for the bike, with however many passengers, or per person. With kickstands up from one location, participants will ride from destination to the next, enjoying the unique look and atmosphere of Deer in each, whether they be coffee shops, Headlines fire stations or whatever the events Gery L. focus. Deer After a long, scenic tour, sometimes collecting playing cards to complete a poker hand, the rides conclude at a local eatery, bike dealership or park for food, entertainment and social time. Most of the retailers serving as a tour stop will donate some type of percentage of sales or other funds to the charity event in exchange for the focused business and publicity. A couple of years ago, a friend from high school first told me about these rides and one she was involved with in Greene County, Ohio. In an effort to raise money to benefit victims of domestic violence, her motorcycle organization was planning a poker run to visit fire stations in the area. Now in its third year, the annual First Responders And Bikers Advocating Against Abuse Fire House Run supports the “Shoe Barn Project,” a fundraising effort to provide new shoes for children who come through the Greene County Children Services or The Family Violence Prevention Center. Shella Baker is the organizer of FRABAAA. Baker, a nurse and paramedic sees, firsthand, the devastating tolls domestic violence can take on a family. “After helping kids and families who lived in The Family Violence Prevention Center of Greene County, we noticed each year that, even above toys, children were asking for shoes,” Baker said. “This really struck me as such a basic need; it was surprising that a lot of children would even think about asking for shoes at Christmas.” Twenty-five years ago, she and her son took refuge at the FVPC (now renamed as The Kathryn K. Hagler Family Violence Prevention Center) to escape an abuser and now she wants to give back. Today, she has joined with fellow first responders to advocate for victims and promote awareness and prevention, the poker run will help support that cause. “When FRABAAA started the Shoe Barn Project, we wanted to reach out even further to help all kids in the system that have been victims of abuse,” Baker told me. “We hope to one day have a huge operation to help not only Greene County, but counties across the state and country. To make that happen, we need to get more communities on board.” This year’s Fire House Run is scheduled for July 16. Registration begins at 10 a.m. at Buckminn’s D and D Harley Davidson at 1213 Cincinnati Ave. in Xenia, and riders move out at noon. Participation is $20 per rider and $10 per passenger. Like many other similar events, the run has actually expanded. The 2016 run will include Clark County destinations as well as visits to fire stations in Xenia, Mad River Township, Fairborn, German Township, Springfield and more. If you’d like to participate (you can go in a car if you’re not a biker), visit the group website at frabaaa.com or call Shella Baker at (937) 789-7262. I’m not a rider myself, but I know that this is a great way for those of common interests to contribute to a great cause. Motorcycle runs are fun, relaxing and enjoyable for riders while providing a great opportunity for fellowship and fundraising. As always, riders ask that drivers keep their eyes open for motorcyclists. And please remember, if you are in immediate need of help in a domestic violence situation, call your local DV shelter.

In this day and age, the best policy is to assume we are under surveillance the minute we walk out our door every day, aside from our own voluntary monitoring even behind closed doors. Whether it’s security cameras, the proliferation of small drones equipped with cameras, or someone across the street with a smart phone shooting pictures or video, no one can expect to be invisible anymore. George Orwell’s futuristic society has arrived, but not due to any mandate from an authoritarian police state. No, the general population has not only welcomed Big Brother, we created him first, and then built a spare bedroom for him. So the fact that there were people upset about a rather rudimentary hydraulic tower with some cameras on it, located in plain view in downtown Hillsboro for one special event, is difficult to comprehend. Anyone inclined to worry about such things has so much more along those same lines to be concerned about, since so many of us broadcast our actions almost minute by minute, and there’s no warrant necessary for what we willingly and publicly give away. I asked Chief Whited on Monday if he was happy with the surveillance tower. He said he was, and thankfully there were no major problems during the festival. He agreed that its presence alone helped serve as a deterrent, and its ability to monitor the uptown area 24 hours a day was another bonus. SkyWatch is gone now from our fair city, having served its purpose. So for those who were skittish about the eyes in the sky, it’s safe to go outside again – except for everyone else who is watching, recording, storing and sharing in multiple ways, in a society where privacy is but a fond memory.

HAMILTON (AP) — An Ohio sheriff’s anti-drug message in a video that plays off the “most interesting man in the world” beer campaign has been viewed tens of thousands of times. Butler County Sheriff Richard Jones posted the video to his Facebook page last week declaring himself “the most interesting sheriff in the world.” It’s inspired by the popular Dos Equis beer advertising campaign that ended earlier this year. The video features clips of Jones and a voiceover saying he won the Tour de France on a stationary bicycle and gave John Wayne his blessing to play a sheriff. Jones says in the video that he loves snitches and asks residents to turn in drug dealers. He says heroin is “killing us” and hopes social media users will continue sharing the video.

The easy smile behind the beard says it all. If winning the U.S. Open champion wasn’t enough, Johnson added his third World Golf Championship on Sunday, the first time he has won back to back. His U.S. Open title was popular because of the hard times he had to confront in the majors and the confusion he had to face from the USGA for not making up its mind about a penalty on the Tony Dejak | AP Dustin Johnson hits from the practice range during the practice round of the back nine at Oakmont. And Bridgestone Invitational golf tournament at Firestone Country Club, Wednesday, June because Johnson is simply fun to watch and be around. 29 in Akron, Ohio. He was loose all week at Firestone. During the opening round Thursday, he checked a reporter’s phone for the score in the deciding game of the College World Series. His alma mater, Coastal Carolina, won the school’s first national title. Does that lessen his chances to be alum of the year? Johnson laughed and said, “Bro, I couldn’t care less.” He is the U.S. Open champion and couldn’t be happier. Paulina Gretzky, his fiancee and the daughter of hockey great Wayne Gretzky, had to leave Friday and Johnson kept their 18-month-old son, Tatum, with him in Ohio (with help from a nanny). Cameras caught him after he closed with a 66 on the phone with her saying, “I found him.” “I didn’t know where they were, and Paulina was asking me where they were,” he said. “I was like, ‘I don’t know, I just walked off the course.’” He had the boy in his arms and later was chasing after him while waiting to see if Jason Day or Scott Piercy could catch him. Johnson said they had planned to get married last fall until it didn’t fit in the schedule, so perhaps the wedding will be later this year. See JOHNSON | 10 Five RBIs lead Tigers over Indians 12-2 CLEVELAND (AP) — Nick Castellanos had three hits, including a three-run homer, and tied his career high with five RBIs Wednesday to lead Detroit over Cleveland 12-2 Wednesday and stop the Indians’ home winning streak at 13. Cameron Maybin hit a two-run homer and Ian Kinsler had three singles for the Tigers, who overcame a 2-0, fourth-inning deficit and beat the Indians for the first time in 12 meetings this year. Rookie Michael Fulmer (9-2) allowed two runs — one earned — and five hits in six innings, improving to 7-1 with a 0.63 ERA in his last nine starts. Josh Tomlin (9-2) retired his first nine batters, then gave up hits to four of his next five and lost for the first time since May 30. He allowed eight runs, tying his big league high, and seven hits in 4 2/3 innings. Three of the runs were unearned because of an error by All-Star shortstop Francisco Lindor, who allowed Victor Martinez’s two-out grounder to bounce off his glove on a short hop. Castellanos homered over the 400foot sign in center on the next pitch for an 8-2 lead, chasing Tomlin. Cleveland leads the AL Central by 6 1/2 games over second-place Detroit and has the major leagues’ best record from June 1 on at 25-9. The Indians’ 13-game home winning streak was the longest in the big leagues since Cleveland won 14 in a row from April 3-May 10, 2011. Castellanos, who returned to the lineup after sitting out Tuesday with flu-like symptoms, had his second five-RBI game. He hit his 16th homer, then doubled home two runs in the seventh off Zach McAllister. Maybin’s two-run homer had tied the score in the fourth, when Justin Upton hit a sacrifice fly. Fulmer entered the afternoon having allowed one run or less in eight consecutive starts, matching the second-longest streak in big league history behind Bob Gibson’s 11 for the 1968 St. Louis Cardinals. TRAINER’S ROOM Tigers: RHP Jordan Zimmermann (right neck strain) underwent tests Wednesday to determine why pain is radiating toward his shoulder. He was placed on the 15-day disabled list Monday. Indians: C Roberto Perez (broken right thumb) is 1 for 2 with two runs through two games of his rehabilitation assignment in the Arizona Rookie League. He has been on the DL since May 1. UP NEXT Tigers: RHP Justin Verlander opens a fourgame series Thursday in Toronto. The former AL Cy Young winner has 115 strikeouts in 111 2/3 innings this season. Indians: RHP Trevor Bauer is to start Thursday against the visiting Yankees in the opener of a four-game series. He threw five shutout innings of relief July 1 in Toronto.

The Blue Jays won 8-3. 5 Cubs elected to start in All-Star Game NEW YORK (AP) — After topping the major leagues during the first half of the season as they seek their first title in more than a century, the Chicago Cubs dominated the rosters for next week’s All-Star game. And the Boston Red Sox, who ended their long drought a decade ago, were not far behind. The Cubs became the first team since the 1976 Cincinnati Reds’ Big Red Machine to have five players voted as All-Star starters, and seven Chicago players in all were picked Tuesday for the July 12 game at San Diego’s Petco Park. Chicago’s entire infield was voted in — first baseman Anthony Rizzo, second baseman Ben Zobrist, shortstop Addison Russell and third baseman Kris Bryant — along with center fielder Dexter Fowler, who hopes to recover from a hamstring strain that has sidelined him since June 18. The only other team to start four infielders was the 1963 St. Louis Cardinals. “It’ll be really cool starting the game and throwing to those guys in San Diego,” Rizzo said. Rizzo led NL players with 3.2 million votes, and Zobrist won the closest race by finishing 88 votes ahead of Washington’s Daniel Murphy. Jake Arrieta and Jon Lester were selected for the National League pitching staff. Chicago got off to a 47-20 start but has slumped for the past few weeks. The Cubs have not won the World Series since 1908, but have the second-most All-Stars in their history behind eight in 2008. “Make sure you slow it down and enjoy every second of it,” Cubs manager Joe Maddon recalled telling his All-Stars. The game will feature 11 first- time starters, the most since 2005. In a sign of the sport’s generational change, 12 of the 17 elected starters are 26 or younger. “It should be a little more special,” said Bryant, who attended the University of San Diego for three years, Boston has six All-Stars, including four starters. Designated hitter David Ortiz, who is retiring at the end of the season, became a 10-time All-Star and is joined in the lineup by a trio of first-timers: shortstop Xander Bogaerts and outfielders Jackie Bradley Jr. and Mookie Betts. Knuckleballer Steven Wright and closer Craig Kimbrel also were selected. “Four days of rest and chilling is good, but this All-Star Game, I’m going to try to enjoy it the most,” said the 40-year-old Ortiz said, who helped the Red Sox win three titles, including their first in 86 years in 2004. Wright is a first-time All-Star at age 31. “I feel like I’m still the same guy,” he said. Kansas City catcher Salvador Perez and first baseman Eric Hosmer were voted to the AL starting lineup along with Houston second baseman Jose Altuve, Baltimore third baseman Manny Machado and Los Angeles outfielder Mike Trout. Perez led all players with nearly 4.97 million votes. “He’s kind of turned into somebody that everybody loves,” said Royals manager Ned Yost, who will lead the AL. “They love his style of play. They love his energy. They love his production and they like the way that he plays the game.” San Francisco catcher Buster Posey was elected in the NL along with New York Mets outfielder Yoenis Cespedes and Washington outfielder Bryce Harper. Five Orioles were picked for the AL roster. Beyond Machado, catcher Matt Wieters and outfielder Mark Trumbo are among the reserves, and Brad Brach and Zach Britton are on the pitching staff. Orioles manager Buck Showalter told Brach’s wife, singer-songwriter Jenae Cherry, to pass along the news to her husband. “I told her — she’s an up-andcoming country music singer — she should write a song about it,” Showalter said. “I’d buy it.” Arrieta is among five first-time All-Stars on the NL pitching staff, joined by New York’s Noah Syndergaard and Jeurys Familia, the Los Angeles Dodgers’ Kenley Jansen and Miami’s A.J. Ramos. Other NL pitchers include Washington’s Stephen Strasburg, the Giants’ Madison Bumgarner, the Marlins’ Jose Fernandez and Atlanta’s Julio Teheran. Washington’s Max Scherzer was bypassed. Jansen entered Tuesday with the second most saves (133) in baseball since the start of 2013. After being overlooked each of the past few seasons, he had been making plans to spend the break with his family at a beach or Disneyland. “I wasn’t getting my hopes up and get disappointed again,” he said. “Now that I finally got a chance, I just appreciate it.” Andrew Miller and Dellin Betances were picked for the AL bullpen from the New York Yankees’ Run BMC trio but Aroldis Chapman was left off after missing the first 29 games of the season while serving a domestic violence suspension. Miller and Wright are among seven first-time All-Stars on the AL pitching staff, joined by See CUBS | 10 �SPORTS Daily Sentinel Thursday, July 7, 2016 7 OVP SPORTS BRIEFS Football officials training program to begin July 12 POINT PLEASANT, W.Va. — The Ohio-Kanawha Rivers Officials Association is planning to conduct a training class for individuals who may be interested in becoming registered football officials.

DR_16461_3x3.5 �SPORTS 10 Thursday, July 7, 2016 Daily Sentinel Federer erases 2-set hole, 3 match points at Wimbledon LONDON (AP) — The match, and Roger Federer’s bid for a record eighth Wimbledon championship, essentially should have been over after a little more than 1½ hours Wednesday. Already trailing two sets to none, he was down love-40 while serving at 3-all in the third. Once that problem was solved, his quarterfinal against Marin Cilic really could have concluded 45 minutes later, when Federer faced a match point at 5-4 in the fourth. Or 10 minutes and two games later, when Cilic again was a point from winning. Or another 10 minutes after that, when Cilic held a third match point. Through it all, Federer, a month shy of his 35th birthday, would not go away. And Cilic, who beat Federer in straight sets en route to the 2014 U.S. Open title, could not close the deal. Saving that trio of match points, Federer eventually emerged with a don’t-look-away-or-you’ll-misssomething 6-7 (4), 4-6, 6-3, 7-6 (9), 6-3 victory over Cilic to reach his 11th semifinal at the All England Club. “I fought, I tried, I believed,” Federer said after his 10th career comeback from a twoset hole, equaling the most on record. “At the end, I got it done.” Indeed, he did. When he capped his escape with a pair of aces at 126 mph and 115 mph, the third-seeded Federer thrust both arms overhead and violently wagged his right index finger. He’s no longer ranked No. 1. He hasn’t won a Grand Slam trophy since 2012. He dealt with knee surgery and a bad back this season, the first since 2000 that he arrived at Wimbledon without a title. He sat out the French Open, the first major he missed since 1999, raising doubts about his readiness for Wimbledon. “To test the body, to be out there again fighting, being in a physical battle — and winning it — is an unbelievable feeling,” said Federer, who could become the oldest man to win a major since Ken Rosewall was 37 at the 1972 Australian Open. “Yeah, I mean, it was an emotional win.” On Friday, Federer faces No. 6 Milos Raonic, a 6-4, 7-5, 5-7, 6-4 winner against No. 28 Sam Querrey, the man who surprised No. 1 Novak Djokovic in the third round. Raonic, beaten by Federer in the 2014 Wimbledon semifinals, declared: “I’m happy that I have another shot at him.” On the other half of the draw, No. 10 Tomas Berdych eliminated No. 32 Lucas Pouille 7-6 (4), 6-3, 6-2 and plays No. 2 Andy Murray or No. 12 Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in the semifinals. It’ll be tough for any remaining match to achieve the intensity of Federer vs. Cilic. Both served supremely well for stretches. Federer led in aces, 27-23, was broken only once, and in the last two sets, altered his stance on returns to get a better read on the ninthseeded Cilic’s speedy serves. There was a lot of quick-strike tennis, yes, but still room for lengthy, engaging points. There were rare signs of frustration from Federer, who swatted a ball angrily after one fault, then gave a line judge a talking-to about a call. Most memorable, though, were Cilic’s wasted opportuni- AP SPORTS BRIEFS Ex-players ask to bring back statue Steelers’ Bell reveals contract demands STATE COLLEGE, Pa. (AP) — More than 200 former Penn State football players are petitioning university leaders to return the bronze statue of Joe Paterno that stood outside the school’s football stadium. The statue of the late football coach was removed in 2012. That was after his former assistant coach Jerry Sandusky was convicted of child sexual abuse and an investigation accused Paterno and other ex-officials of covering up complaints about Sandusky. The players sent a letter Tuesday to the board of trustees and Penn State President Eric Barron calling for the statue’s return. The players also want an apology to Paterno’s wife, Sue, and the restoration of the wall that stood behind the statue. A university spokesman says there will be “a time and a place” to acknowledge Paterno’s legacy. Steelers running back Le’Veon Bell is entering the final season of his rookie contract and Bell and his agent aren’t not doing their negotiating through the media. They’ve apparently decided to do it through rap lyrics. Bell released a rap song on Twitter over the holiday weekend. The lyrics seemed to indicate it will take $15 million a season to remain with the Steelers. “I’m at the top, and if not, I’m the closest. I’m a need 15 a year and they know this,” Bell rapped. Bell is right. He is perhaps the NFL’s best running back. However, there are some extenuating circumstances that will almost certainly prevent him from earning that sum with the Steelers. First, the Steelers also must pay Antonio Brown in the same neighborhood in 2018. It’s going to be difficult to have three players earn more than $15 million a season no matter how much the salary cap goes up between now and then. Bell also hasn’t been on the field enough to warrant that type of contract. He has played in only 35 of a possible 48 games during his first three seasons. He missed three games with a foot injury in 2013, eight games last season with a knee injury and two others last season under an NFL suspension for violating the league’s policy on substance abuse. And then of course there is the fact that the Steelers can keep Bell for 2017, and they don’t have to negotiate with him at all. The Steelers could place the franchise tag on Bell and pay him significantly less than $15 million per season. The franchise number for running backs this year was $11.7 million. If Bell was serious about $15 million a year being a contract demand, the Steelers could save around $3 million, or maybe more, by placing the franchise tag on him. Rose sues former investigator over claims Former baseball star Pete Rose is suing the lawyer whose investigative report got him kicked out of baseball for gambling, alleging the lawyer defamed him last year by saying on the radio Rose raped young teen girls during spring training. Rose said in a federal lawsuit filed Wednesday that John Dowd damaged his reputation and endorsement deals during an interview on WCHE-AM in West Chester, Pennsylvania. Dowd investigated Rose for Major League Baseball in 1989, leading the game’s all-time hits leader to be declared ineligible for the Hall of Fame. The lawsuit states Dowd claimed Rose associate Michael Bertolini said he “ran young girls” to Rose during spring training, which Dowd called “statutory rape every time.” A man answering a phone listed for Dowd in Massachusetts abruptly hung up.

More than rust, Open champion, Johnson however, Johnson was smiled and said, “Don’t matter to me. That bill is bothered by how poorly he was hitting his wedges going to Wayne.” But as easy as Johnson at Pebble Beach. That’s when he decided can make golf look, it still to change to something requires hard work. new — at least to him. Even in the rain.

In short, it lets a player dial in every aspect of his game. Johnson wanted it only for his wedges. “All I look at it is carry numbers, just so I have more of a feel when I’m on the course and playing,” Johnson said. “I felt like that was one area I needed to improve on. I felt like I was good with it, but I was too streaky. One day I’d be perfect, the next day … not that I hit them bad, I just didn’t hit them good enough.” Now it’s perhaps the ties, starting at 3-3 in the third set. “That switched, a little bit, the momentum,” Cilic conceded. He earned three break points by smacking a forehand passing winner. On the first, looking tight, Cilic netted a backhand. On the second, he sent a forehand long, and Federer let out a guttural yell. On the third, Cilic’s backhand return went wide, and Federer shouted again. Federer took the next two points to hold, and at the ensuing changeover, fans chanted: “Let’s go, Roger! Let’s go!” Seemingly all 15,000 or so spectators at Centre Court willed Federer on, rising to their feet and roaring louder with each game — and, sometimes, each point — that went their man’s way. “Roger is very liked everywhere, especially here. … But it didn’t bother me,” Cilic said. “Obviously, in some situations, it can help him.” In the next game, Cilic double-faulted to let Federer break for the first time, and soon the 17-time major champion was shaking his right fist, celebrat- ing. Finally, a set belonged to him. Plenty of work remained: those match points in the fourth set, all on Federer’s serve. At 30-40 in the 10th game, a gutsy 104 mph second serve drew a long forehand return from Cilic. At 30-40 in the 12th game, Federer conjured up a 120 mph ace. And at 7-6 in the ensuing tiebreaker, Federer again didn’t hold back on a second serve, this one at 108 mph, and Cilic flubbed a forehand return, this one into the net. Five minutes later, Federer converted his fifth set point of the tiebreaker, when Cilic’s forehand found the net. Suddenly, everything was even at two sets apiece, and while Cilic is 7 years younger, it was Federer who thrived as the match moved past the 3-hour mark, grabbing the last three games. “This is a big one,” Federer said. “Probably not the biggest, but a big one.” Follow Howard Fendrich on Twitter at http://twitter.com/HowardFendrich Penske offers impassioned defense of his two drivers DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (AP) — One of his drivers had just used a dominating run to capture his first career victory at famed Daytona International Speedway. The win was the 100th for the organization at NASCAR’s top level. To get to victory lane, his other driver offered an assist in the closing laps. Unrelated, he also spun another driver on the last lap to create another round of hard feelings. So instead of basking in the triumph of victory while wearing a champagne-soaked white shirt, Roger Penske was borderline angry in his impassioned defense of drivers Brad Keselowski and Joey Logano. Keselowski’s victory Saturday night was his third of the season, first at Daytona after years of struggles on the highbanked superspeedway. He got a late push on a final restart from Logano, who then irked Kurt Busch when contact on the final lap sent Busch spinning through the grass. Busch, a former Penske driver, called it “an aggressive mistake,” but his crew chief Tony Gibson fumed on Twitter: “Stupid is as stupid does!!!” Penske thought it was unfair. “Joey has taken, I think, some undue criticism from my perspective,” the team owner said. “I could name three or four things that certainly weren’t his fault. He’s one of the best drivers on the racetrack out there day in and day out, and sure, people make mistakes. A lot of these drivers can knock somebody off the track, and they say, ‘Hey, I’m sorry.’ They don’t let Logano do that. “As far as I’m concerned, I’m behind him 300 percent, and I’ll talk to Kurt, he didn’t do it on purpose. … At the end of the day, that’s racing, as far as I’m concerned.” Indeed, Logano has taken his share of hazing from many veterans during his rapid rise into NASCAR. He was famous before he’d ever turned a lap, hyped as the next big thing, and many drivers took umbrage to the family wealth that eased his road to NASCAR’s top level. Penske is used to defending Logano, who was recruited to the team by Keselowski three years ago when Keselowski was unselfish enough to look past a teammate who could match him on the track and saw only a talent who could strengthen the organization. Penske is also used to defending Keselowski, who is outspoken and doesn’t back down from anything. Unlike Logano, he had to claw his way through the racing ranks, and after fighting for everything he’s earned, he won’t bow to anyone.

Three years ago, Johnson was tied for 113th on the PGA Tour in approach shots from 50 to 125 yards. Now he is No. 1 on tour. “Obviously, it’s working,” Johnson said. “So I’m going to keep doing it.” That wasn’t the only change for Johnson, the 32-year-old American often considered to have the most athletic ability of any golfer. At some point late last year, he decided to move away from his natural right-to-left draw off the tee and go to a fade, a drastic change. “I was tired of hitting hooks,” he said with a grin. “I feel like I hit a lot more fairways. Maybe the stats don’t say it, but I feel like I do, so I think that’s the important thing. I just don’t feel like my misses are as bad.” It was a big part at Firestone, especially in such firm conditions that made hitting the fairway even more difficult. And it helps to make putts, which is what Johnson felt was missing for so much of the year. But it’s more than just putting. “I feel like tee to green, I’ve been really solid all year,” Johnson said. “My wedges have improved a lot. I’m getting a lot more opportunities when I’m in the fairway and hitting my wedges closer than I have been. I just feel like the work I’ve put in with the putter is finally paying off. But I mean, it still comes down to you’ve got to hit the shots so you can have those putts.” Whatever the combination, it’s led to two weeks that have made Johnson a tough player to beat.
