Center is Holzer’s new home for physical therapy, exercise center and more By Dean Wright deanwright@civitasmedia.com GALLIPOLIS — The new Holzer Wellness and Therapy Center hosted its open house Thursday morning with area dignitaries and supporters in order to display the facility’s services to the public, as well as celebrate upon the work involved with getting the center open. The center is located on Second Avenue where the old Johnson grocery market sat at 735 Second Avenue. The land was donated to the Holzer Heritage Foundation by the Eastman family. Individuals will be able to purchase memberships and have access to a walking and running track, the latest exercise equipment, a sauna, shower and locker areas, vending services and a multipurpose meeting room. The center will also offer healthcare services compromised of physical, speech, massage and occupational therapies as well as providing for health risk assessments and guided ﬁtness plans. “This is a great day for Holzer and a great day for (southeast Ohio),” said Dr. Michael Canaday, newly named Holzer Health System CEO. “This is a wellness center. That word is very important. It’s not just a ﬁtness center. It’s also a therapy center.” “Healthcare is the business of Holzer,” he continued. “As we go forward, we have to focus on health and you would think it’s maybe the same. Health is a big deal. Our goal as we go forward, and we’re trying to ﬁgure out how to do this. It’s not just about taking care of people when they’re sick, but to help them stay healthy and live longer and more productive lives. My goal going forward to help us as an organization is to create an epidemic of health and wellness through this region and county. I think what you see here today Holzer Health System Board of Directors Chairman Brent Saunders cuts the ribbon with Holzer Heritage Foundation President Jim Morrison to the new Holzer Wellness and Therapy Center. is what can happen with a little city with a big heart.” Congressman Bill Johnson had a representative read a proclamation at the wellness center to recognize Holzer Health System’s efforts in southeast Ohio. “It is vital that residents of (the region) have the facilities, equipment, knowledge and opportunity to live a healthy lifestyle,” Johnson wrote. “The Holzer Heritage Foundation has made this possible. Thus with great pride I commend Holzer Health System for its commitment to providing quality healthcare to the community and extend my best wishes to the entire Holzer family.” Dean Wright can be reached at 740-4462342, ext. 2103.

In a presidential election year woefully short on civility, the cloning attempt 17 years ago hasn’t been used against Mark Hunt once in the contest. Hunt only talks about it when asked, but he’s not ashamed to tell the story. Hunt’s baby boy still beams a smile down over his dad from a framed picture in his ofﬁce in the law ﬁrm he’s run for 22 years. Andrew died at 10 months old, and would have been 18 years old in October. “That’s that child right there, with those blue eyes that you could look in and see eternity,” Hunt said. Hunt said Republican Rep. Alex Mooney won’t revisit the issue because polls show people will sympathize with him as a grieving parent. Mooney said he doesn’t think cloning is right, but he doesn’t plan to bring the issue up in the race for the 2nd Congressional District, which stretches across the middle of the state, through Charleston and the Eastern Panhandle’s Washington suburbs. Hunt, who served 14 years in the House of Delegates, pointed out that he was elected multiple times after the cloning episode. It’s gut-wrenching every time the topic comes up, Hunt said. “My son died. We would’ve done anything to save him. We would’ve done anything to create a twin of him, if it were possible. We tried,” Hunt said. “We broke no laws. We spent our money. And maybe we were taken advantage of by people. But ﬁnally we had to let him go.” After Andrew died from complications after surgery to correct heart defects in 1999, Hunt and his wife, Tracy, spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to quietly set up a laboratory inside a Nitro, West Virginia community center, and hired Brigitte Recent attack ad on Sarah Grace an act of desperation Boisselier, the chief executive of Clonaid, to clone their son’s DNA. The lab never came close to actually cloning a human. Hunt shut it down within months under pressure from the Food and Drug Administration, and cut ties with the founders of Clonaid, who also promoted what they called the Raelian Movement and claimed extraterrestrial scientists created life on Earth. For scientiﬁc, ethical, and commercial reasons, no reputable experts have tried to clone a complete human since. Outside the Legislature, Hunt has become wealthy suing drug and insurance companies over faulty product claims, and he and his wife are raising two other sons. Dear Editor, I was a bit taken aback by the recent attack ad mailed by the Jay Edwards campaign and OHRC. Their attempt to portray Sarah as Godless is an affront to anyone who knows and understands the Constitution and to those of us who know Sarah. Sarah answered a question about requiring children to say the Pledge of Allegiance in its current form by answering that she believes in the separation of church and state. Her answer was right on target and based on the First Amendment. “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof”. Freedom of religion is a cornerstone of our great nation. As a retired pastor I know and understand how both our country and church beneﬁt from the guarantee of freedoms included in the Bill of Rights. Freedom of religion allows people to choose for themselves how to worship and the form their worship takes. It is not up to me or to the government to require others to worship as I do. I should not have been surprised by this attack. I have observed that often when a candidate has no new ideas and even less experience, they resort to attacking their opponent. I believe that this is what is happening now in this attack ad from the OHRC and the Edwards campaign. If there is any godlessness on display, it is on their part. (In the interest of full disclosure, I have known Sarah for about 20 years. She is my daughter-in-law. I am a former Marine, a gun owner and a retired United Methodist Pastor. I served in southeast Ohio for 22 years. I know Sarah Grace to be an honest, caring person who loves southeastern Ohio and the people here as much as I do.)

This mess is the responsibility of former East Elementary PTO treasurer Sarah Grace. According to the article, the PTO tried repeatedly to solve the problem, even hiring a CPA and a lawyer. The lawyer “was hired to meet with Sarah Grace to try to get more ﬁnancial information” the article says. And the article goes on to say “multiple attempts” had been made over the course of months to get ﬁnancial information from Grace. Honestly, Sarah Grace’s comments in the paper don’t make any sense. Her real response seems to be to shrug her shoulders and pretend East Elementary PTO and its issues don’t exist. And that’s probably the saddest part because the PTOs really do work hard to try to make a difference for kids. The kids and the school deserved better from Sarah Grace.

When jobs are lost, when health fails, when ones dear to us are taken, when our lives are rocked by hurt, pain, or rejection, we often will give up on God or we attempt to gang up on Him. We give up on Him in the sense that we despair of His loving us in practical ways while we gaze at Him through the cracked lenses of our circumstances. “Pain is bad,” we instinctively begin. “God has allowed hurt in my life,” we further reason. Therefore, “He must not love me if He lets bad things happen to me,” we mistakenly conclude. And so we become “victims” in the version of our story that we have authored and recite for ourselves. Thom But sometimes we gang up on God Mollohan instead by striving to bully Him with a Contributing crowd of demands and complaints. We Columnist launch missiles of accusation powered by pent up frustrations and suspicions as we strive with God to do things our way. We allow the disappointments that throng within our hearts to riot before His throne, forgetting that He does indeed sit upon a throne and not a folding chair in a complaint department. Perhaps this is mostly because we are habitually underestimating Him. Oh, I don’t mean underestimating what He can do. While it is certain that we cannot fathom all or even the tiniest portion of what an omnipotent, omniscient and omnipresent God can do, our primary deﬁciency is that we are consistently underestimating Who He is. “Moses said to God, ‘If I come to the people of Israel and say to them, The God of your fathers has sent me to you, and they ask me, What is His name? what shall I say to them?’” God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM.” And He said, “Say this to the people of Israel, I Am has sent me to you.… This is My name forever, and thus I am to be remembered throughout all generations” (Exodus 3:13-14, 15b ESV). He continually reminds me that He is not and never will be just what I want Him to be… unless I just want what He truly is. God does not bow to my limited understanding of what He should act, say, or do because He is in His being more than I can conceive in my own thinking or imagination and He is far more in His being than I can perceive on any level, intellectually, emotionally or spiritually. Besides, perspective does not make reality; it simply shapes my capacity to engage it. If I truly hunger for God, I want no counterfeit that my own selﬁshness would construct for me; I want Him as He really is. The Lord tells us in Exodus 3 that His “name is, ‘I AM WHO I AM.’” What does this mean? Just that God is Who He is. He is Who He is regardless of one’s refusal to acknowledge Him as such. He is Who He is in spite of countless (and groundless) inane theories as to His nature and attributes. He is Who He is no matter how many alternatives to Him the world supplies us. He is Who He is whether or not one tries to explain Him away. He is Who He is even though one believes that we have Him ﬁgured out. You see, no one can “ﬁgure God out” because He is inﬁnitely greater in being than can be calculated, envisioned, or believed. Personally, I am grateful for this realization. This means that I have an anchor that can withstand the most violent waves the world can throw my way. I have a light which guides my feet no matter how tall the shadows of life become. I am given a hope that no despair can conquer and no fear can overcome. He is Who He is though discouragement may hang upon my shoulders like a deadly weight and doubts may ﬂood my mind. My world may crumble down around me, but He is the “Rock in Whom I take refuge” (Psalm 18:2). Therefore, turn to the One Who does not lie or change His mind (from 1 Samuel 15:29). Come to Him on His terms and let Him show Himself to you as more than the “Big Guy upstairs,” more than a kindly Old Man to Whom we send our wish lists, and more than a Judge Who sits either in complacent coldness or in ﬁery fury. He is so much more than words can describe Him that knowing God is not about just an occasional “connection” but is instead a journey of wonder and delight. Come to Him through faith in His Son, Jesus, and see the wealth of joy and peace that He has set aside for you as you learn to delight in His presence. Come to this God Who has chosen to reveal Himself through the written Word of His Bible as He shows you what “amazing grace” truly is in the Person of His Son, Jesus, the Lamb of God. Turn to Him and trust Him. He is faithful to receive us if we come wholeheartedly to Him and do so with a singleness of mind and purpose. “Call upon me and come and pray to Me, and I will hear you. You will seek Me and ﬁnd Me. When you seek Me with all your heart I will be found by you, declares the LORD” (Jeremiah 29:12-14a ESV).

When it comes to intimate relationships, like marital or even family relationships, two necessary factors are incredibly important for strength and stability. The ﬁrst has to do with having love for the other, about which volumes are written and conversations are ﬁlled. But, the second has to do with liking the other. It was recently that I pointed out I not only love my wife, Terry, but I like her, too. I like what she does, I like what she says, and I like how she relates to me. My liking her prompts passion in me to spend time with her. She is the one whom I both love and like. The Scripture raises this “liking” concern, too, as it involves our personal relationship with God. The Psalmist points out, “The Lord taketh pleasure in them that fear Him, in those that hope in His mercy.” One aspect of taking pleasure in someone is that you have a liking for them. Therefore, we ﬁnd here the signiﬁcant suggestion that there is a bond of relationship with God going beyond the scope of love. It is also a bond of relationship with ﬁcial for us to have God based on lika distant relationing. Consider it: ship with God? if the Lord “takes Personally, I am pleasure” in us, it grateful that God suggests strongly loves me. But, the liking facsince deep fellowtor.

Rather, from your perspective? You can love someone but His liking us reaches out not like to hang out with to the extent to which we depend on Him. It is them, or do things with thing. After all, you never right there in the verse. First, God likes those hear someone say the who revere Him. He converse, “I like them, “takes pleasure in them but I do not love them.” that fear Him.” In the broadest of When one fears and terms, it usually means that you keep the person reveres God, one possessyou-love-but-do-not-like at es and expresses reverena relational distance.

Second, God likes those who rely on Him. He “takes pleasure in those that hope in his mercy.” In the Scripture, “hope” is not wishful thinking. Rather, it is a grace from God based on His sure promises. Thus, the hope God gives is that, because of His mercy, He will not condemn us on the basis of the condemnation we deserve. As it turns out, God likes - takes pleasure in - those who recognize His mercy directed toward us, who depend upon His mercy, and who live assured of His mercy. Evidently that pleases God. Evidently, God likes us for being that way toward Him. Hey, guys! Give your wife $100 this week just because you like her, and see if she will not like you back. It has worked for me at times - particularly when I had made her mad at me. The Rev. Ron Branch is pastor of Faith Baptist Church in Mason, W.Va. GOD’S KIDS KORNER Celebrating All Saints Day Around this time each year, many churches celebrate what they call “All Saints’ Day.” On this day, we remember all the believers in the family of God that have lived before us. Men and women we read about in the Bible like Abraham, Moses, Paul, Mary, Martha, Jesus’ Disciples, and so many more are all considered to be saints because they were all “set apart” for God’s holy special purposes. On All Saints’ Day, we also remember those friends and relatives that have died before us and were followers of Jesus. In a sense, we are all saints because we are Christians, but these people from the Bible and our own time, have been special examples If you think of to us all of what it life as a sort of race means to love and to be run, then all follow God.

They help us know how to handle difﬁcult situations from their own struggles. We know that just like You, they want what is best for us. Let us always know You and they are helping us to choose what is the right thing to do, and that we are all part of Your family - the family of God. In Jesus’ name we pray, Amen.

It’s a placebo for sleeping better at night. Placebos are mostly harmless, except and when they distract you or prevent you from doing what you really need to be doing.

This year it’s about Raekwon McMillan. Eight years ago, it was about James Laurinaitis. McMillan, the Buckeyes’ middle linebacker, has heard the same kinds of opinions Laurinaitis listened to from 2005-2008 that maybe he doesn’t make enough big plays and that he doesn’t play with the same ﬂash and ﬂair expected of a player whose sizable reputation preceded him. Laurinaitis was the Butkus Award winner as the best linebacker in college football in 2007 and won the Nagurski Award as the top defensive player in college in 2006. But even after that, he had his doubters. Some people even suggested Laurinaitis’ reputation and stature had been pumped up by the back story of his father being a famous professional wrestler. Laurinaitis’ defenders said he had sound fundamentals and worked hard to be in the right place at the right time and that this was better than linebackers who focused only on big hits and often were caught out of position. Laurinaitis ﬁnished his OSU career with 13 sacks and nine interceptions, so it wasn’t like he spent his Saturdays standing around and watching other people make plays around him. He was taken as the third selection in the second round of the 2009 NFL draft by the St. Louis Rams and is still in the NFL. When McMillan, in his second season as a starter at middle linebacker, was asked to assess his performance so far this season during an interview session earlier this week, he looked at reporters and said, “If I ask you all, I’m playing the worst season in the world.” McMillan’s statistics, maybe even more so than Laurinaitis’, don’t blow anyone away.

In 2013, in the same season Southern ﬁrst qualiﬁed, Trimble was the Division VII state runnerup. This season, the Tomcats — coached by veteran boss Phil Faires — lost against Nelsonville-York and Waterford while winning their other eight contests. On Oct., 7, at Roger Lee Adams Memorial Field in Racine, Trimble — with a trademark two tight-end full-house backﬁeld — bullied the Tornadoes by rushing 47 times for 370 yards. Every single Tomcat carry came from that wishbone formation — as Trimble only attempted three passes. Chancey said simply “they (Tomcats) ran the ball down our throat and we didn’t stop them.” Speciﬁcally, senior Kameron Curry and junior Dominic Pickett toted the rock, as Curry carried 15 times for 149 yards and a hat trick of touchdowns — while Pickett posted 125 yards on 13 attempts and one touchdown run. Pickett’s paydirt trip covered 62 yards, while Curry erupted for a 78-yard scamper for his ﬁnal TD. For the season, Curry has rushed for 1,257 yards and 21 touchdowns on 157 carries, while catching 10 passes for 143 yards from quarterback Gary Brooks. Pickett has 41 carries for 367 yards and four scores. The Tomcats are also proliﬁc in the passing game, as Brooks has completed 53-of-98 passes for 802 yards and 16 touchdowns. Jacob Hardy, who played only defense in the ﬁrst matchup because of an arm injury, has 43 receptions for 960 yards and 15 TDs. “We’ll have to do a better job of being sound defensively in everything we do. They (Tomcats) do a nice job of being multiple-formation,” said Chancey. “They can play power football and be in the wishbone with the two tight ends, and they can line right back up with no backs and spread you out and throw it and run it. If we’re not sound, they will ﬁnd that and hurt us. We have to be ready for anything from them, not give up big plays like we did the ﬁrst game and we have to execute much better.” The Tornadoes also have to execute better offensively, as they only See TORNADOES | 2B �SPORTS 2B Friday, November 4, 2016 Daily Sentinel Lady Knights fall to Winfield, advance to regionals By Alex Hawley ahawley@civitasmedia.com WVU looks to regain spark after 1st loss By John Raby WINFIELD, W.Va. — It will go in the record books as a loss, but not all was lost for the Lady Knights. The Point Pleasant volleyball team dropped a 3-games-to-1 decision to host Winﬁeld, on Wednesday night in the Class AA Region IV, Section 1 championship match, but — with two teams from each section advancing — the Lady Knights are headed to the regionals. After a pair of lead changes in the opening game, the teams were tied at nine, the seventh and ﬁnal time they were tied. From that point, Winﬁeld (35-10-2) claimed the next four points and never trailed again. PPHS (17-11) battled to within one point at 21-20, but the Lady Generals claimed four straight points to win the opening game 25-20. WHS took the initial lead in the second game, but Point Pleasant took control at 5-3. Winﬁeld fought back to tie the game at seven. PPHS claimed the next point to reestablish its lead, but the Lady Generals answered with a 6-0 run and never trailed again. The Lady Knights fought to within one point at 16-15, but fell by a 25-19 count in the second game. “(Winﬁeld) just capitalized on a lot of mistakes that we had,” PPHS head coach Marla Cottrill said. “We weren’t covering as well as we should have and our energy level wasn’t up like it was last night. They knew that they were going to regionals no matter what, so it’s tough to keep that energy level up, but they fought back hard.” In the third game, Winﬁeld jumped out to a 6-1 lead and expanded it to as much as 12, at 23-11. momentum that had thrust the Mountaineers into the national Minimizing turnovers conversation after fueled West Virginia’s starting the season unbeaten start.

However, Point Pleasant scored 14 straight points — despite a pair of WHS timeouts — and the Lady Knights claimed the 25-23 victory. “Winﬁeld is an excellent team, we’d never beat Winﬁeld in any set, so it’s a win for us just beating them in one set,” said Coach Cottrill. “I told the girls that ‘this is where the rubber meets the road.’ They had to win that third set, they pulled together and they did it.” Winﬁeld — which had swept eight consecutive opponents — had won 22 straight games before dropping the third to PPHS. Point Pleasant carried the momentum into the start of the fourth game, leading by as much as three at 4-1 and 9-6. The Lady Knights stretched their lead to four at 11-7, but WHS answered with four straight points to tie the game. PPHS reestablished a lead at 12-11, but Winﬁeld scored the next ﬁve points and led 16-12. Point Pleasant again cut the deﬁcit to one point, at 19-18, but Winﬁeld scored six of the next nine points and won the game by a 25-21 margin, capping off the 3-1 victory. “Point Pleasant has never made it this far,” Coach Cottrill said. “We’re in our ninth year as a program and we had never made it past the ﬁrst round of sectionals. Getting here is a win for us. This is the best team that Point Pleasant has ever had.” The Lady Knights will have the beneﬁt of familiar scenery for the for its Region IV semiﬁnal, as PPHS will face Section 2 champion Chapmanville, on Saturday at 2 p.m. at Winﬁeld High School.

Luiza Da Costa and Lanea Cochran both marked ﬁve points, including two aces by Da Costa. Gracie Cottrill, Michaela Cottrill and Peyton Jordan each had four points in the setback, while Brenna Dotson ﬁnished with three points and one ace. At the net, Da Costa led the Lady Knights with 11 kills and one block. Cochran was next with seven kills, followed by Brenna Dotson with ﬁve kills and two blocks. Michaela Cottrill contributed four kills for the Red, Black and White, while Gracie Cottrill and Olivia Dotson both chipped in with two kills. Olivia Dotson also had a team-best 14 assists for PPHS, while Gracie Cottrill added nine. Jordan led the Lady Knight defense with 27 digs, followed by Michaela Cottrill with 16. Winﬁeld was led by Kylie Williams with 13 service points, followed by Esten Clay with 12 and Autumn Elswick with 11.

He can salvage his chances with a victory in either of the next two races, starting Sunday at Texas Motor Speedway. “We know what we have to do and we feel like we can do it,” he said. Edwards is part of the four-car Joe Gibbs Racing contingent that made it into the round of eight of the playoffs. But when Jimmie Johnson won last weekend at Martinsville, it meant JGR can’t get all four of its drivers into the championship race. In some regards, it took the prospect of points racing off the agenda for Edwards at Texas. “We had a great run going there at Martinsville and obviously that was a huge disappointment, but it really makes things pretty simple this weekend,” Edwards said. In 23 Sprint Cup Series starts at Texas, Edwards has led 655 laps and has three victories. He also has seven top-ﬁve and 12 top10 ﬁnishes. Edwards also won a pair of Xﬁnity races at Texas in 2010 and 2011. Crew chief Dave Rogers believes Edwards can pull off another win at Texas, or win next week at Phoenix. “It’s tough to name two better racetracks for us to be in (this) situation,” Rogers said. “Texas offers a lot of character with bumps and an abrasive surface and Goodyear will be bringing a tire that wears out and falls off. That combination always yields an exciting race for our fans and plays into the strengths of Carl and this race team.” Last Game: Buffalo lost to Winﬁeld 30-21, in Winﬁeld; Wahama lost to Miller 40-0, in Hemlock.

Cubs win epic Game 7 to end Series drought CLEVELAND (AP) — Kris Bryant started to smile even before he ﬁelded the ball. And with his throw to ﬁrst for the ﬁnal out, the agonizing wait ‘til next year was over at last. No more Billy Goat, no more Bartman, no more black-cat curses. For a legion of fans who waited a lifetime, ﬂy that W: Your Chicago Cubs are World Series champions. Ending more than a century of ﬂops, futility and frustration, the Cubs won their ﬁrst title since 1908, outlasting the Cleveland Indians 8-7 in 10 innings of a Game 7 thriller early Thursday. They even had to endure an extra-inning rain delay to end the drought. “It happened. It happened. Chicago, it happened,” ﬁrst baseman Anthony Rizzo said after gloving the ball for the ﬁnal out. “We did it. We’re world champions. I tell ya, we’re world champions. I can’t believe it.” Rizzo put that ﬁnal ball in his pocket as the Cubs piled up in the middle of the diamond, David Ross got carried off the ﬁeld by his teammates and Bill Murray partied in the clubhouse. And the whole time, blue-clad fans who traveled from Wrigley Field ﬁlled nearly the entire lower deck behind the Chicago dugout at Progressive Field, singing “Go, Cubs, Go!” in rain. They held up those white ﬂags with the large blue “W” on a night many of their forebears had waited for in vain. Lovable losers for generations, the Cubs nearly let this one get away, too. All-Star closer Aroldis Chapman blew a 6-3 lead with two outs in the eighth when Rajai Davis hit a tying, two-run homer. But the Cubs, after tormenting their fans one more time, came right back after a 17-minute rain delay before the top of the 10th. Series MVP Ben Zobrist hit an RBI double and Miguel Montero singled home a run to make it 8-6. Davis delivered an RBI single with two outs in the bottom half, but Mike Montgomery closed it out at 12:47 a.m., and the celebration was on. “I think about so many millions of people giving so much love and support to this team for so many years,” said owner Tom Ricketts, whose family bought the team in 2009. Manager Joe Maddon’s team halted the longest stretch without a title in baseball, becoming the ﬁrst club to overcome a 3-1 Series deﬁcit since the 1985 Kansas City Royals. “This is an epic game. It’s epic. I can’t believe we were able to do it — 108 years in the making,” Zobrist said. “We did it.” “They never quit, either,” Zobrist said. “They kept coming at us.” Cleveland was trying to win its ﬁrst crown since 1948, but manager Terry Francona’s club lost the last two games at home. World Series favorites since spring training, Chicago led the majors with 103 wins this season. The Cubs then ended more than a century of misery for their loyal fans — barely. Bryant, one of Chicago’s young stars, began to celebrate even before ﬁelding a grounder by Michael Martinez to third base and throwing it across to Rizzo for the last out. “It’s the best rain delay of all-time,” Rizzo said. Zobrist got a Serieshigh 10 hits, a year after he helped the Royals win the championship. Zobrist was among the players brought to the Cubs by Theo Epstein, the baseball guru who added another crown to his collection. He also assembled the Red Sox team that broke Boston’s 86-year drought by winning in 2004. From Curse of the Bam- Indians fans again must wait until next year CLEVELAND (AP) — Tens of thousands of fans ﬂocked to downtown Cleveland for a celebration. The Chicago Cubs crashed the party, beating the Indians 8-7 in Game 7 of the World Series to claim their ﬁrst championship since 1908. The Indians now own the longest title drought in the majors at 68 years. When reliever Mike Montgomery recorded the ﬁnal out in the 10th inning, Cubs fans became unglued, jumping for joy 350 miles away from their beloved Wrigley Field. Indians fans slowly headed for the exits after being forced to wait for next year yet again. “It truly was an experience of a lifetime and it could have gone either way, all the way to the last pitch,” said Brandon Rapp, 34, of Brunswick. “Obviously, I wish the Indians would have won, but I’m happy for the Cubs. My wife is from Chicago, so at least one of us is going home happy. For me, there’s always next year.” A boisterous sellout crowd — nearly half of them rooting for Chicago — packed Progressive Field an hour before the ﬁrst pitch. Revelers also stood shoulder-to-shoulder at adjacent Gateway Plaza on the unseasonably warm evening, watching the game on large screens. Dueling chants between Indians and Cubs fans were prevalent in the early innings before the visitors built a 5-1 lead, then returned to a fever pitch when Rajai Davis hit a game-tying, two-run homer in the bottom of the eighth. “Just when all hope seemed lost, Davis hit that homer and you started to believe that the Cubs were still cursed,” said Adam Daher, 27, of Lakewood. “It felt like we had won, so when the Cubs won, it was like someone taking away something from Cleveland.” Nearby bars ﬁlled up by late afternoon in advance of the 8 p.m. start, while a sizable number of Chicago partisans toured the city’s arts district, Playhouse Square and the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame on the lakefront. David J. Phillip | AP The Chicago Cubs celebrate after Game 7 of the Major League Baseball World Series against the Cleveland Indians Thursday, Nov. 3, 2016, in Cleveland. The Cubs won 8-7 in 10 innings to win the series 4-3. bino to the Billy Goat Curse, he ended another jinx. “We don’t need a plane to ﬂy home,” Epstein said. “It’s ﬁtting it’s got to be done with one of the best games of all time.” Cubs outﬁelder Jason Heyward had called a meeting during the rain delay, talking to his teammates in the weight room. “I just had to remind everybody who we are, what we’ve overcome to get here,” he said. While Cubs fans hugged with delight, there was only despair for the Indians, who now have gone longer than anyone without a crown. In the Indians’ previous World Series appearance, they were a double-play grounder from winning the 1997 title before losing Game 7 in 11 innings to the Marlins. “It’s going to hurt. It hurts because we care, but they need to walk with their head held high because they left nothing on the ﬁeld,” Francona said. Earlier this year, LeBron James and the Cavaliers ended Cleveland’s 52-year championship drought by overcoming a 3-1 deﬁcit to beat Golden State for the NBA title. James and teammates were in a suite, root- ing hard, as the Indians absorbed the same blow as the Warriors. After defeating San Francisco and the Los Angeles Dodgers in the playoffs, Chicago became the ﬁrst team to earn a title by winning Games 6 and 7 on the road since the 1979 Pittsburgh Pirates. Dexter Fowler homered on Corey Kluber’s fourth pitch of the game, and 23-year-old Javier Baez and the 39-year-old Ross — set to now retire — also went deep for the Cubs, who led 5-1 in the ﬁfth inning and 6-3 in the eighth. Chapman wound up with the win, and Montgomery got one out for his ﬁrst save in the majors. Bryan Shaw, who gave up a leadoff single to Kyle Schwarber in the 10th, took the loss in just the fourth Game 7 that went to extra innings. Albert Almora Jr., pinch-running for Schwarber, alertly took second on Bryant’s long ﬂy to center. Rizzo was intentionally walked, and Zobrist slapped an opposite-ﬁeld double past diving third baseman Jose Ramirez. Montero singled to make it a tworun lead. Then in the bottom half, Carl Edwards Jr. struck out Mike Napoli, Ramirez grounded out, Brandon Guyer walked and Davis hit an RBI single. Montgomery took over, and helped set off a wild celebration on Chicago’s North Side. Even a dedicated White Sox fan could appreciate the victory. “It happened: Cubs win World Series. That’s change even this South Sider can believe in. Want to come to the White House before I leave?” President Barack Obama tweeted. Twenty-one other teams had won the World Series since the Cubs last were champions. They reached the top again on the 39,466th day after Orval Overall’s three-hit shutout won the 1908 ﬁnale at Detroit in a game that took 1 hour, 24 minutes — this latest Game 7 lasted 4:24, not including the rain delay. Back then, Theodore Roosevelt was president, New Mexico, Arizona, Alaska and Hawaii were not yet states, and the ﬁrst Ford Model T car was two weeks old. The Cubs were last champions when Joe Tinker, Johnny Evers and Frank Chance won consecutive titles in 1907-08, until now the only ones in team history. The Cubbies had not even reached the Series since 1945. This one was for Ernie Banks, Ferguson Jenkins, Ron Santo and Billy Williams, who never reached the postseason. For Gabby Hartnett, Ryne Sandberg and Greg Maddux, whose October runs fell short. For Lee Elia and the “nickle-dime people” who spent so many windswept afternoons in the Friendly Conﬁnes watching loss after loss. For Bill Veeck, who planted ivy vines against Wrigley Field’s outﬁeld walls. For William Sianis, the Billy Goat Tavern owner said to have proclaimed when he was asked to leave Wrigley with his pet during the ‘45 Series: “Them Cubs, they ain’t gonna win no more.” For Steve Bartman, whose life was upended when he tried to catch a foul ball as the Cubs came apart in the 2003 playoffs. And for Harry Caray, who promised viewers after the 1991 ﬁnale that “sure as God made green apples, someday the Chicago Cubs are going to be in the World Series.” Maddon, hired before the 2015 season, won his ﬁrst Series title after establishing a loose clubhouse that featured at times Warren the pink ﬂamingo, Simon the magician and the motto: “Try not to suck.” “It was just an epic battle,” Zobrist said. “Just blow for blow, everybody playing their heart out. The Indians never gave up, either, and I can’t believe we’re ﬁnally standing, after 108 years, ﬁnally able to hoist the trophy.” This was the ﬁrst World Series in which no starting pitcher got at least one out in the seventh inning, according to the Elias Sports Bureau. The only other in which no starter ﬁnished at least seven innings was in 2002, when San Francisco’s Russ Ortiz threw 6 1/3 innings in Game 6. Brooklyn Buckeye trades a rumble for a roar COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — When Curtis Samuel was taking a subway — after taking the bus — to football practice in high school, he never doubted he was talented enough to play at a top program such has Ohio State. His only concern was whether the Buckeyes would ﬁnd him in Brooklyn. With the help of a family that kept his priorities straight and a wellconnected high school coach, Samuel went from hearing the rumble of the elevated subway train next to Sid Luckman Field to the roar of 100,000 Ohio State fans at the Horseshoe. Samuel has emerged as No. 6 Ohio State’s most dangerous offensive weapon in his junior season. Playing the hybrid receiver-running back position that Percy Harvin once ﬁlled for Buckeyes coach Urban Meyer on a national championship team at Florida, Samuel is having a Harvin-type season. He is averaging 137 yards from scrimmage per game, 9.5 per touch, with eight touchdowns. That Samuel has performed so well in this role should be no surprise. He has been playing it since high school. Erasmus Hall coach Danny Landburg was up for it and led Erasmus to the title as a junior. Sid Luckman Field, named after the Brooklyn native and Erasmus Hall alum who went on to become a Hall of Fame quarterback for the Chicago Bears in the 1940s, is a very different setting from those in which many four- and ﬁve-star recruits play in under Friday night lights.
