THEIR VIEW

Carrasco, welcome
to the club of
cancer patients
Earlier this week, Cleveland shined
on the national stage with the playing of
the 90th Major League Baseball All-Star
Game. It capped a week of festivities
that included a celebrity softball tournament, the home run derby, and a pair of
national rock bands playing concerts in a
downtown park.
As he powered through a 90-minute set
list on a sticky Saturday night, the Killers frontman Brandon Flowers recalled
a quote from stuntman Evel Knievel:
“People pay their hard-earned money to
see the attempt, not the perfect landing,
and we’re gonna try to do that tonight.”
The Killers, for what it’s worth, stuck
the landing that night. That quote, however, had me thinking about
a guy who wasn’t elected as
a MLB All-Star that weekend, but in my wholly-biased
opinion, owned the whole
week.
Back in May, Cleveland

columnist
On June 5, he was placed on
the injured reserve list with
what the team called a “blood disorder.”
This weekend, in a video released from
the team, Carrasco revealed that the speciﬁc blood disorder was chronic myeloid
leukemia, a treatable blood cancer.
If there are a hundred ways to be diagnosed with cancer, there are a hundred
different ways to decide how to integrate
that information into your life.
There’s something I personally ﬁnd

— eight
years into my own cancer journey — it
looks like he’s decided to embrace the
terrible privilege of facing one’s mortality
and has turned it into something beautiful.
“This is gonna make me stronger than
I’ve ever been,” Carrasco said in the
video. And he’s right. That’s the opportunity every one of us gets with every lousy
card we’re dealt.
Between his June diagnosis and his
announcement over the weekend, Carrasco’s spent time with juvenile leukemia
patients at Cleveland Clinic Children’s
Hospital. I’d bet those kids can’t believe
how lucky they got — meeting a real
major leaguer. When they’re older, they’ll
realize Carrasco probably got more out of
it than they did. Purpose. Mission.
Beating cancer, or any of the other
awful things that may befall us in our
lives, isn’t about one big, dramatic victory
and a ticker-tape parade down East Ninth
Street. It’s a daily struggle. You beat it by
picking yourself up, and living your life.
When you have to take a break, you take
a break. Then you go right back to living
your life.
You beat cancer by living your life on
your terms, as hard as you can, as long
as you can. Along the way, you make part
of your mission to pick up as many other
people as you can, and show them the
way. It took me an embarrassingly long
time to realize all of that. I look at Carrasco, and he’s ﬁgured it out in the ﬁrst 60
days. His positivity radiates through his
video.
That positivity is contagious. In our
awful little club of cancer patients, it’s
the best, most addictive drug there is.
When I hear about someone else hitting
remission, I celebrate with lots of terms
we can’t print in a family newspaper. It’s
rocket fuel to get through the low points
for the rest of us. Watching someone else
with any form of the disease basically say,
yeah, I’m going to pitch again — and you
realize how hard Major League pitching
is, right? — that’s next-level inspiration.
I’ll be listening to every start of his for
the rest of his career on the edge of my
seat. In his profession of baseball, Carrasco may or may not ever stick the landing again (my money is emphatically on
“yes”), but the inspiration is absolutely in
the attempt.

Blues and Brews returns for 19th year
Bash set

2019 BLUES
BASH
SCHEDULE

By Sarah Hawley
shawley@aimmediamidwest.com

POMEROY — The
19th annual Big Bend
Blues and Brews Bash
returns later this month
with a lineup of returning
favorites mixed with a
few new faces.
The Blues Bash takes
place on Friday, July 26
and Saturday, July 27
with live music both days.
Music begins at 6 p.m.
on Friday evening with
Blue Z, followed by local
rockers Blitzkieg.
Blitzkrieg, Southeast
Ohio’s longest running
rock band, is made up of
Phil Moon on lead guitar,
vocals and keyboard; Lyle
Moon on bass guitar,
vocals and keyboard; Ed
Sisson on rhythm guitar
and vocals; and Rob
Heady on drums, percussion and vocals. The
band’s motto is “I Rock
therefore I am.”
Following Blitzkrieg
will be Randy McAllister
at 8 p.m. and Scott Holt
at 10 p.m.. Noah Wotherspoon will be the featured
performer at Court Grill
on Friday evening.
McAllister’s been ﬂying
in the face of convention his whole career. No
smoke, no mirrors, no
choreography, no industry machines. One of the
most versatile bluesmen
in Texas, McAllister plays
driving drums and worldclass harmonica, writes
incredible songs and has
one of the most amazing and soulful voices.
Roustabout, maverick,
spiritual, gritty, amazing, genius, wild, badass, soulful… These are
some of the words used
to describe this Texas
bonaﬁde blue blood. A
much revered, singer,
songwriter, harmonica
player and drummer. East
Texas roadhouse soul
by one of America’s true
blues/roots originals.
The American South
has an incredibly rich
musical legacy, bearing
witness to the birth of
Jazz, Rock, Country and
of course, The Blues.
Singer/Guitarist/Entertainer/Songwriter Scott
Holt has been carrying
the Blues torch for his
entire career. Born and
raised primarily in Tennessee, he and his family
also made homes in Texas
and Mississippi. The
lanky, tattooed Tennessean was “touring before
I knew it was called touring.”
Saturday’s entertainment lineup will begin
at noon with Brent Patterson and the Saturday
Night Showcase, featuring performers including
the Carlson’s, Generation
Gap, Juke Joint Johnny
and Steve Rifﬂe Band.
At 2 p.m., Connor
Christian will perform,
followed by The Renée
Stewart Band and The
Labra Brothers.
At 5 p.m. will be the
Dave Keller Band.

At 8 p.m., Johnny
Rawls will perform on the
Blues Bash stage.
Johnny Rawls returns
to the stage in Pomeroy
where he has performed
for several years. Rawls is
a longtime performer at

the Big Bend Blues Bash,
an accomplished musician who received acclaim
by the 21st annual Living
Blues Awards Critics’ Poll
for the “Most Outstanding Blues Singer 2013”
and “Best Blues Albums
of the Year 2013.” His
busy schedule takes him

around the country and
includes performances
abroad, with a stop in
Pomeroy for the annual
“Blues Bash.”
The ﬁnal performer on
the main stage will be
Albert Castiglia.
The Miami New Times
says of Castiglia, “It may
be a bit premature to
crown Albert Castiglia
America’s newest King
of the Blues, but there’s
little doubt that he at
least deserves the title of
heir apparent.”
As most artists will
attest, the most unexpected circumstance can
spark artistic inspiration. That’s a fact that
hasn’t been lost on

Albert Castiglia. With his

Jake Dunn writes with

features guitar work inﬂuenced heavily by acts like
The Outlaws and Lynyrd
Skynyrd, yet retains the
subtleties and songwriting talent of artists like
Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson. Their sound,
held together by a solid

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — A black female
police ofﬁcer has sued the Ohio State Highway
Patrol alleging she was harassed based on her
gender and race and then faced retaliation for
reporting it.
Norma Scott, a Highway Patrol employee
since 2013, ﬁled suit Thursday.
The lawsuit says she was attending a statewide training session on terrorism in June
2017 when she heard a supervisor say he
wished he could “get rid” of “brown people”
like her.
Scott reported the remarks and the supervisor was suspended for three days. She alleges
that after he returned to work he harassed her
by ordering numerous investigations of minor
infractions and retaliated against her by denying her special-duty assignments.
A Highway Patrol spokesman said the agency
doesn’t comment on ongoing litigation.

By Alex Hawley

POINT PLEASANT,
W.Va. — With Saturday’s

a weekend’s worth of runs
into a single contest on

a 12-1 count on the campus
of Point Pleasant High

began adding on with one
gone in the bottom of the
third. Wes Smith scored on
a single by Wolfe to start
things, then Brody Jeffers
came home on a single by
Wyatt Hoover.
After Wolfe made it home
on a double steal, Coltin

the hosts a 6-0 edge by the
end of the frame.
Ceredo-Kenova got a run

Excellent weather
for Capehart
Junior Golf Final
Staff Report

POMEROY, Ohio — After several weeks —
including one rainout and other bad looking
weather — for the Frank Capehart Tri-County
Junior Golf League, the weather for the ﬁnal tournament of the season was about as close to perfect
as can be achieved.
Not only was the weather fantastic, the Meigs
County Golf Course was in very good condition.
The tournament that took place on Tuesday is
known as ‘Fun Day’. That means that the format
for the day was different than the usual tournament guidelines. In this event, all participants are
given a handicap based on their previous scores
from the initial three tournaments. Age divisions
did not exist, with both boys and girls competing
against one another.
After handicaps were determined and net scores
posted, all participants, based on their order of ﬁnish, were allowed to select a prize. All prizes were
golf related in some manner including golf balls,
tees, golf gloves, golf hats and practice golf balls.
Prior to giving prizes to the various handicap
winners, plaques were awarded to the individual
age group winners.
The boys division in the 10-and-under age group
was won by Nate Harris, while Ali Norris was the
victor in the girls division of that age group. Alec
Conway won the boys 11-12 year old age group
and Marlo Norris won the plaque for the ladies in
that group. Joe Milhoan won the 13-14 year old
boys group and Lorena Kennedy was the ladies
division champion in that age group. The boys
winner in the 15-17 year old age group was Whitney Byrd, while Caitlin Cotterill won for the ladies
in that group. The winner in the boys 18-19 year
old age group was Jensen Anderson. The girls
division in that group was won by Haley Pierson.
There was a tie for the net score winner with a
score of 33. Both Gus Kennedy and Marlo Norris
ﬁnished with the same net score, however, Kennedy received the ﬁrst choice of prizes because
his gross score bested that of Norris. The third
best net score of the day was a tie between Whitney Byrd and Caitlin Cotterill with net scores
34. Byrd’s net score was lower than Cotterill, so
Whitney chose in third place prize. A 35 was the
ﬁfth-place score, posted by Caleb Pierson.
Conner Ingals, Ethan Short, and Brady Meadows tied with net scores of 36. Jensen Anderson
was next with his net score of 37, and Grant
Roush also shot a net score of 37. Joe Milhoan,
Josiah Weaver, and Nate Harris all ﬁnished with a
net score of 38.
There was a four-way tie for the net score of 39,
those players were Hunter Copley, Lorena Kennedy, Jacob Spencer and Ali Norris. Alec Conway
who played ill still managed to post a net score of
40. Kaden McClutchen and Porter Midkiff tied
with a net score of 42. Teagan Conway and Case
Dettwiller had a tie net score of 43. The ﬁnal tie
net score of the day was a 44 between Riley Cotterill and Cy Watterson.

Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Carlos Carrasco, who was diagnosed with leukemia and was honored during Tuesday’s All-Star Game,
will throw a bullpen session and he’s confident he can overcome his condition and pitch again for Cleveland this season.

Carrasco not slowing down in leukemia fight
CLEVELAND (AP) —
Carlos Carrasco’s smile
remains bright, his mood
and outlook as positive
as ever.
Outwardly, the Indians’
right-hander doesn’t seem
different. He’s determined
not to let cancer change
him.
“I never put anything
bad on my mind,” Carrasco said. “Everything’s
good. So I don’t feel different. I just push myself
to work more and get
stronger.”
Diagnosed with chronic
myeloid leukemia last
month, the 32-year-old
Carrasco spoke to media
members Thursday for
the ﬁrst time since his life
took a dramatic, unexpected turn. As he dealt
with so many unknowns,
Carrasco said he’s never
once asked “why me”
after learning of his condition.
“I’m not that kind of
person,” he said. “If it’s
happened, it’s for a reason.”
Carrasco said he ﬁrst
knew something was
wrong after he took his
annual physical at the
start of spring training in
Arizona. But after more
blood work was done,
doctors at The Cleveland
Clinic told him he had
a treatable form of leukemia but that he could
continue pitching as long
as he felt up to it.
He’s barely slowed
down.
Carrasco has been
throwing bullpen sessions, doing some recent
workouts at Lake County
(A) while Cleveland hosted the All-Star Game.

“As hard as it was too watch, it was really
moving. It was good to see him feel that. I
know he knew how much support was out
there, but to really feel that not just from
the league, but feel it from across America,
behind the scenes even when you looked at
Twitter afterward.”
— Mike Clevinger
Indians pitcher

While he everything
feels normal when he’s
on the mound, Carrasco
doesn’t know if he’ll be
able to pitch for the Indians again this season.
“Man, I don’t know,”
he said. “I’m just here.
I’m just going to take it
day by day. I don’t know.
I don’t have the answer,
but I’m glad to be here
around my teammates.”
Carrasco said he’s been
overwhelmed by the support he’s received from
teammates, coaches and
Cleveland’s fans.
During his interview
session, manager Terry
Francona stood just a few
away from the popular
starter, another sign of
the club’s devotion.
On Tuesday night,
Carrasco felt all of baseball’s love.
During the ﬁfth inning
of the All-Star Game,
Carrasco walked on the
ﬁeld for Major League
Baseball’s “Stand Up To
Cancer” salute along with
Francona and All-Star
teammates Francisco
Lindor, Carlos Santana,
Shane Bieber and Brad
Hand.
As the group stood in
the third-base coach’s
box, Carrasco held a sign
that read: “I Stand” while

the other Indians held
placards that said: “Cookie,” Carrasco’s nickname.
When the group was
shown on the ballpark’s
giant scoreboard, the
crowd erupted with loud
cheers.
Francona described
the powerful moment as
perfect.
“Holy smokes,” he said.
“You talk about putting
an exclamation point on
it. It was incredible.”
Indians pitcher Mike
Clevinger, who was sitting in one of the dugout suites, said seeing
Carrasco embraced like
that was special.
“As hard as it was too
watch, it was really moving,” Clevinger said. “It
was good to see him feel
that. I know he knew
how much support was
out there, but to really
feel that not just from the
league, but feel it from
across America, behind
the scenes even when you
looked at Twitter afterward.
“That was big for him
and deﬁnitely big for us.”
When he arrives each
day at Progressive Field,
Carrasco said he’s quickly
greeted with hugs from
teammates.
Shortly after the Indi-

ans learned about his
condition, a meeting
was held without him at
which Lindor, Santana
and others pledged to
win for their ailing teammate.
“Everyone from the
team, if I could show
you, I had like 300,
maybe 500 texts from
them every day, asking
how did I feel,” Carrasco
said. “They are special to
me. They feel like home.
They feel like family.
They always send me a
text, even the guys that
played here before, they
send me a text every day.
It feels great.”
Carrasco chose not
to disclose the type of
medical treatment he’s
receiving.
In the meantime, the
Indians are working off
Carrasco and being mindful not to rush him.
“There isn’t a plan and
I don’t mean that like
we don’t care,” Francona
said. “But the idea is for
him to do as much as he
can — or as much as he
can tolerate — because
it will be good for him.
Other than that, we’re
not pushing him. We’re
just trying to be supportive.”
And as his teammates
have backed him, Carrasco has returned the love.
For Monday’s All-Star
Home Run Derby, Carrasco wore a customized
jersey with the names
Santana, Lindor, Bieber
and Hand on the back.
“The way they’ve been
supporting me, I just
came to the game to support them, too,” he said.
“Why not?”

Mystery, excitement for British Open’s return to Portrush
By Doug Ferguson
Associated Press

Graeme McDowell
winning the 2010 U.S.
Open at Pebble Beach
was a source of pride for
Northern Ireland. Rory
McIlroy winning the U.S.
Open at Congressional
the following year with a
record score was a source
of hope.
And then a month
later, Darren Clarke
became the ﬁrst Ulsterman in 64 years to raise
the silver claret jug.
In a span of six majors,
three champions came
from a small country
in the United Kingdom
known for its castles,
coastal links and three
decades of religious and
political violence known
as “The Troubles.”
What began as a question — “Could the British Open return to Royal
Portrush?” — became a
drumbeat until organizers found a way to make
it work.
Golf’s oldest championship returns to the
Dunluce Links of Royal
Portrush for the ﬁrst
time since 1951, the only
occasion in 159 years
that the British Open was
not held in Scotland or
England.
“I didn’t see it getting
big enough or sophisticated enough to host
an Open,” said David
Feherty, who grew up
in Northern Ireland
and makes his return as
part of the NBC Sports
broadcast team. “It’s
just extraordinary what
they’ve done.”
The response to Royal
Portrush hosting the
British Open on July
18-21 for the ﬁrst time in
68 years has been a combination of excitement
and mystery.
The championship
was a sellout 11 months
ahead of time. The Royal
&amp; Ancient Golf Club
decided in April to provide an additional 15,000
tickets for tournament
days, and those were
snatched up quickly.

Peter Morrison | AP

This is the 7th hole on the Dunluce Links course at Royal Portrush Golf Club, Northern Ireland, where
the British Open will be played in a historic return to Northern Ireland after it was last played there
in 1951.

That means more than
200,000 spectators for
the competition days of
the 148th Open. And
that should come as no
surprise. Royal Portrush
hosted the Irish Open in
2012 and drew 112,000
fans over four days, a
European Tour record.
“I believe big-time
sport needs big-time
crowds,” R&amp;A chief Martin Slumbers said. “We’re
certainly going to get
that.”
And what will they
see? That’s the mystery.
The vast majority of
the 156-man ﬁeld — only
21 players were at the
2012 Irish Open — will
be competing on the
Harry Colt design for the
ﬁrst time. That included
Francesco Molinari, the
defending champion who
will try to become the
ﬁrst back-to-back winner
since Padraig Harrington
in 2007-08.
Clarke still had possession of the claret jug
when he returned to Portrush for the Irish Open
and was paired with
Molinari.
“Being paired with
Darren the ﬁrst round,
it was something I still
remember,” Molinari
said. “So I can only
imagine what the Open
is going to be. It is going
to be even bigger, going
back to Northern Ireland

after so many years.
Defending is always
special, but defending in
a place where the tournament has not been for so
long I’m sure is going to
be extra special.”
There have been a few
changes. To make it a
large enough stage for
the British Open, the
R&amp;A with approval from
the club changed the
routing. Martin Ebert,
who consults on a halfdozen links in the Open
rotation, took land from
the Valley Links to build
two new holes, Nos. 7
and 8. The original 17th
and 18th holes are now
used for the tented village. The nature of the
links hasn’t changed.
There are fewer bunkers than at most links
courses because the contours and cliffs and dunes
serve as a reasonable
defense. The 16th hole
is “Calamity Corner,”
where a shot over the
ravine on the 236-yard
par 3 that falls to the
right could wind up 50
feet below the green.
Feherty recalls being
there the ﬁrst time he
played with his father
and almost didn’t make
it back up. “I almost had
to rope myself to my
dad and establish base
camp,” he said.
Ebert was profuse
with his praise of Royal

Portrush.
“It’s hard to argue that
this will be the ﬁnest
piece of links land which
The Open Championship is played,” Ebert
said in 2014 when the
R&amp;A announced a return
to Portrush. “No other
venue, I don’t think, has
such pure links undulations throughout its 18
holes.”
McDowell is the only
one of three major champions from this generation who actually grew
up in Portrush, at Rathmore, the club next door.
Even with a victory this
year in the Dominican
Republic, nothing was
as satisfying as his 68
in the ﬁnal round of the
Canadian Open to earn a
spot in the British Open.
He could only dream of
Royal Portrush getting
another Open. It would
have been a nightmare to
miss it.
For McIlroy, the pressure might be greater
than going for the career
Grand Slam at the Masters.
He is the only two-time
winner on the PGA Tour
this year and is No. 3 in
the world. He grew up
in Holywood, but Royal
Portrush feels like home.
McIlroy was 16 when he
set the course record of
61 at the North of Ireland
Amateur.

Federer tops Nadal in Wimbledon semis
11 years
after epic
By Howard Fendrich
AP Tennis Writer

WIMBLEDON, England — After waiting 11
years to get another shot
against Rafael Nadal at
Wimbledon, Roger Federer was so, so close to the
ﬁnish line.
One match point
slipped away when
Federer missed a forehand return. A second
came and went on a
backhand return. Later,
serving for a spot in a
record 12th ﬁnal at the
All England Club, Federer shanked a leaping
overhead off the top edge
of his racket frame, giving Nadal a break point.
After Nadal wasted that
chance, Federer earned
two more match points
— and failed to convert
those, either, as his wife,
Mirka, peeked through
the ﬁngers covering her
face.
Federer knew it
wouldn’t be easy against
his great rival. Never is,
really, no matter where
they play. Eventually,
Nadal pushed a backhand
long on match point No.
5, bringing an anticlimactic close to the otherwise
classic contest and allowing Federer to win their
semiﬁnal 7-6 (3), 1-6,
6-3, 6-4 on Friday.
“I’m exhausted. It was
tough at the end,” Federer said. “I’m just very
relieved it’s all over.”
Federer closed in on
a ninth championship at
the All England Club and
21st Grand Slam trophy
in all. To get to those
numbers in Sunday’s
ﬁnal, Federer must get
past Novak Djokovic,
who is the defending
champion and seeded
No. 1.
“We all know how good
he is anywhere,” Djokovic said about Federer,
“but especially here.”
Djokovic isn’t too
shabby himself. He
reached his sixth ﬁnal
at the grass-court major
by beating 23rd-seeded
Roberto Bautista Agut
6-2, 4-6, 6-3, 6-2 earlier
Friday. Djokovic is eyeing a ﬁfth championship
at Wimbledon and 16th
major title.
As entertaining as
that ﬁrst semiﬁnal was
— including a 45-stroke
point won by Djokovic
— it was merely a tasty
appetizer ahead of the
day’s delectable main
course.
Not only was this
the 40th installment of

Ben Curtis | AP

Switzerland’s Roger Federer celebrates his victory over Spain’s Rafael Nadal during a men’s singles
semifinal on day 11 of the Wimbledon Tennis Championships in London on Friday. Federer’s 7-6 (3), 1-6,
6-3, 6-4 win advances him to the final against Novak Djokovic of Serbia, who defeated Spain’s Roberto
Bautista Agut 6-2, 4-6, 6-3, 6-2 earlier Friday.

Federer vs. Nadal, but it
also was their ﬁrst meeting at Wimbledon since
the 2008 ﬁnal. In a match
many consider the best
in the sport’s lengthy

that ended after 9 p.m.,
as any trace of daylight
disappeared.
How excited, then,
were the spectators
for the rematch? When
Federer and Nadal strode
out into the sunshine at
4:30 p.m. Friday, they
were welcomed by a
standing ovation before
ever swinging a racket.
Quickly, that greeting was justiﬁed. These
are, of course, two of
the greats of all-time —
maybe the two greatest
— and they lived up to
that status for stretches.
One key, for Federer,
was that his rebuilt backhand, hit strong and ﬂat
more frequently than it
used to be, held steady
against Nadal’s bullwhip
of a lefty forehand.
Another was that Federer
was able to withstand
Nadal’s serve, which has
improved a ton over the
years. Federer amassed
10 break points, and
though he succeeded
on just two, that was
enough, with the last,
vital conversion making
it 2-1 in the fourth set.
And then there was this:
Federer won 25 of the 33
points when he went to

lost a ﬁve-set semiﬁnal

Elena Delle Donne and
A’ja Wilson are WNBA
All-Star captains
NEW YORK (AP)
— A’ja Wilson is under
a bit of pressure now
as one of the captains
of the WNBA All-Star
Game.
She’ll try and get Las
Vegas teammates Liz
Cambage and Kayla
McBride on her squad
for that matchup. The
only problem is that
Elena Delle Donne has
the ﬁrst pick in the
draft.
“I might have to reach
out to her and see,”
Wilson said in a phone
interview Thursday
night. “I need to get my
teammates.”
Wilson, the reigning
WNBA Rookie of the
Year, was thrilled to be
voted in as a captain
and starter for the game
on July 27.
“It means a lot,” she
said. “Having been seen
that way by the fans
and media and coaches
is special. People have
been tweeting at me
every single day, very
supportive.”
What makes it even
more special for Wilson
is that the game will be
played in Las Vegas.
“It’s amazing having
it in Vegas. Our fans
are really going to love
everything we can bring
for All-Star weekend,”
she said. “What better
place to have it than
in Vegas? Best of both
worlds in everything. I
know our staff and people behind the scenes
are trying to make this
weekend very good and
go as smoothly as possible.”
Joining Wilson, Delle
Donne, Cambage and
McBride as starters
are Phoenix’s Brittney
Griner, Seattle’s Natasha Howard and Connecticut’s Jonquel Jones
in the frontcourt. The
other starting guards
are Los Angeles’ Chelsea Gray, Seattle’s Jewell Loyd and New York’s
Kia Nurse.
Fans make up 50
percent of the vote to
determine the starters,
while current WNBA
players and a media
panel accounted for 25
percent each.
The WNBA also
announced Las Vegas’
Bill Laimbeer and
Washington’s Mike
Thibault as the coaches
of the game. The two
teams have the best
records in the league as
of Thursday.
Laimbeer will coach
Delle Donne’s team as
the Aces have the best
record in the league and

Thibault will lead Wilson’s since the Mystics
have the second-best
mark.
“I want to beat him
bad,” Wilson said.
“We’re both very competitive people. If I have
my teammates alongside me, ‘Oh man’.”
Thibault is coaching
his third All-Star Game.
“I’m just hoping for
a good game,” he said.
“It’s a chance to hang
out with the best players. I’d like it to be a
somewhat competitive
game. It’s harder when
you don’t have conference afﬁliation with
that.”
The league’s coaches
will vote for the 12
reserves — three
guards, ﬁve frontcourt
players and four utility
choices. Those will be
announced Monday.
Coaches can’t vote for
their own players.
Delle Donne and
Wilson will pick their
rosters beginning with
the starters and then
the reserves. Delle
Donne’s team lost to
Candace Parker’s squad
last year in the All-Star
Game. The Washington
Mystics star led the
fan balloting, receiving
32,460 votes followed
by Wilson with 26,475.
Griner tied with Mercury teammate DeWanna
Bonner in the overall
voting, but Griner was
given the All-Star starting nod by having more
fan votes.
Delle Donne and
Griner were chosen
for their sixth AllStar Game. Cambage,
McBride and Gray have
made it for the third
time. Loyd, Jones and
Wilson are All-Stars for
the second time. Howard and Nurse will be
making their All-Star
debuts.
The WNBA added
festivities for the night
before the All-Star
Game with a 3-point
shootout, skills competition and beach party
that Cambage will DJ
at with Snoop Dogg
and Ariana Grande.
“Liz is a legit one.
She can handle her
own. Just knowing her,
she’s a great DJ,” Wilson said. “She gets into
this mode and she’s all
into it.”
Wilson said that she
might have to negotiate to get into the DJ
booth with her teammate.
“That would earn me
huge cool points,” she
said.

Indians’ Kluber arm healing,
close to throwing in bullpen
CLEVELAND (AP) — Indians starter Corey Kluber’s broken right arm is healing as hoped, and he
could begin throwing bullpen sessions soon.
Kluber was struck by a line drive on May 1 in
Miami. Indians manager Terry Francona said Friday
the two-time AL Cy Young Award winner had a “good
checkup” and doctors are now determining when the
right-hander can pitch off a mound.
Asked if it could be within weeks, Francona said:
“That’s probably a decent guess, estimation.”
Kluber has been able to run and work on his conditioning, and he has been strengthening his arm by
playing long toss. Francona said he stretched and
threw from 150 feet this week.
The Indians hope Kluber might be able to come
back this season. Cleveland also is missing righthander Carlos Carrasco, who was recently diagnosed
with leukemia.

Angels honor Skaggs with emotional no-hit masterpiece
ANAHEIM, Calif.
(AP) — The Los Angeles
Angels all wore Tyler
Skaggs’ No. 45 jerseys as
they stood solemnly on
the ﬁeld while his mother,
Debbie, delivered a heartbreakingly perfect strike
with her ﬁrst pitch.
Three incredible hours
later, the Angels walked
back onto the Angel
Stadium ﬁeld, some with
tears in their eyes. One
by one, they removed
those No. 45 jerseys and
spread them over the
mound until nearly all of
the dirt was covered in
red.
In between those two
melancholy, magical
moments, the Angels
played their heavy hearts
out in their ﬁrst home
game since their beloved
pitcher’s death.
Their 13-0 victory over
the Seattle Mariners on
Friday was a combined
no-hitter by Taylor Cole
and Félix Peña. Mike
Trout contributed six
RBIs, including a 454-foot
homer on the ﬁrst pitch
he saw.

On the day before what
would have been Skaggs’
28th birthday, these
astonishing Angels played
a practically perfect game
with his memory in their
minds.
“Tonight was in honor
of him,” Trout said. “He
was deﬁnitely looking
over us tonight. He’s
probably up there saying we’re nasty. What
an unbelievable game to
be a part of. I’m speechless. This is the best way
possible to honor him
tonight. It was pretty
crazy.”
The Angels decided
last week that they would
wear Skaggs’ jersey in
their ﬁrst game back at
the Big A, but their tribute ended up exceeding
all logic and reasonable
expectation. Still reeling
from the loss of their lefthanded starter early last
week in Texas, the Angels
somehow blinked away
their tears and excelled in
every aspect of the game.
“This is obviously the
worst thing that could
happen for a team,” Trout

said. “Emotionally, the
team came together. …
Tonight, to honor him
again obviously opened
the wound again. (But)
just to be out there where
he loved to pitch from,
where he dominated and
threw that curveball that
came from the sky, just to
honor him one more time,
it meant a lot to me. It
was just a great moment
for our team to (gather)
around the mound and
honor him again.”
The Angels emerged
from that reverential
circle around the mound
with a newer, happier
memory of this harrowing
time in team history.
Los Angeles scored
seven runs on eight hits
in the ﬁrst inning alone.
Trout crushed a 454-foot,
two-run homer to left-center on the ﬁrst pitch he
saw, and the two-time AL
MVP appeared to look
toward Skaggs’ family in
the stands as he crossed
the plate after an unusually long home run trot.
Cole also opened ﬂawlessly on the mound.

The reliever pounded his
chest and pointed at the
sky when Kole Calhoun
caught the ﬁnal out of the
second.
“I know he’s here today,
and he was looking over
us, and he’s deﬁnitely a
part of this,” said Cole, a
29-year-old reliever making only his 33rd career
big-league appearance.
“We love him, we miss
him, and we’re always
going to be there for
him.”
Before the game,
Skaggs’ presence was
strong in Anaheim.
His jersey hung in his
untouched locker in the
clubhouse, his pristine
cleats and gloves ready
for a ballgame. The big
stereo system in the
room’s center is silent
because the affable lefthander who controlled
the Angels’ musical choices is no longer here.
And on the far wall of
the clubhouse, two photos of Skaggs now ﬂank
his competitive catchphrase printed in tall letters: “WE’RE NASTY.”

“He’s the life of the
team, honestly,” said
inﬁelder Zack Cozart,
Skaggs’ teammate for the
past two seasons. “We’re
family in here. We’re
around each other all day,
every day. You just hurt
so much for Tyler’s family. … It’s so sudden and
so tragic. Forty-ﬁve will
always be in my mind.
That’s how it’s always
going to be for all of us.”
The baseball season’s
relentless pace forces
the Angels to heal while
they play, and they went
back to work after a
somber All-Star break
during which Skaggs was
honored at the game in
Cleveland.
“In some respects,
sometimes keeping busy
can help,” Angels general
manager Billy Eppler
said. “I don’t really know
if that’s the right way to
go about it, because you
do need to grieve. Everybody has those moments,
personal to them. I’ve
had a couple of those
myself. But for a lot of us,
seeing each other again

is nice.”
While the Angels eventually will settle into the
rhythms of the season,
Skaggs’ presence will be
felt throughout the stadium, from his intact locker
to the large likeness of
the well-liked pitcher now
displayed prominently on
the center ﬁeld wall.
A memorial created
by fans in front of the
Big A’s main entrance
has grown to the size of
a pitcher’s mound, with
hats, signs and baseballs
and other Angels memorabilia delivered to the
stadium by heartbroken
fans over the past 10
days. Most of the Angels
saw the memorial in
person for the ﬁrst time
when they returned from
a difﬁcult road trip and
the ensuing All-Star
break.
“I think guys will
become emotional again,
because it is still very
fresh,” manager Brad
Ausmus said. “That’s
ﬁne. We’re human beings.
There’s nothing wrong
with that.”

Analysis: Westbrook,
Harden will need to
change their games
LAS VEGAS (AP) —
Everyone knows that
Russell Westbrook and
James Harden played
together before, which
automatically makes
their reunion in Houston
seem like the right ﬁt.
It won’t be that easy.
They’ve both changed
since those days.
But here they are,
together again after the
Oklahoma City Thunder
decided to trade Westbrook to the Houston
Rockets for Chris Paul
and another load of draft
picks that Sam Presti is
collecting in the same
way that sneakerheads
hoard vintage pairs of
Jordans. On the surface,
it’s a shiny move for
Houston — two of the
last three NBA MVPs,
the two guys with the
most points over the last
ﬁve seasons, in the same
backcourt.
Per NBA rules, there
will only be one ball in
play, however.
The term they use is
“ball dominant,” a fancy
way of saying certain
players need the ball in
their hands more than
others. Westbrook and
Harden are two of those
guys. Harden held the
ball for nearly 6½ seconds — a league high
— and took nearly six
dribbles, on average,
every time he touched it
last season. Westbrook
typically held the ball
for 5.1 seconds, taking
nearly ﬁve dribbles every
time it was in his hands.
That can’t continue.
They’re both going to
have to change.
And getting big-time
stars to change is never
easy.
The Rockets know
this, of course, but in
a Western Conference
that saw Kawhi Leonard
and Paul George join
the Los Angeles Clippers, Anthony Davis join
the Los Angeles Lakers
and Kevin Durant leave
Golden State, they had
to do something. Harden
and Paul, for whatever
reason, didn’t work out.
Title-chasing teams like
Houston aren’t inclined
to be patient, so the
Rockets took a big swing
and brought on Westbrook.
It’s believed that this is
a trade both Westbrook
and Harden wanted.
When the Thunder

decided to deal George
to the Clippers in a move
that all but announced
that Westbrook would be
gone next, it made sense
that teaming up with
Harden again would be
an option.
That makes for a nice
story: former teammates
getting back together.
These versions of
Westbrook and Harden,
however, have never
been teammates before.
They were kids when
they spent the ﬁrst three
seasons of Harden’s
career together in Oklahoma City. They were
making around $4 million a year, not $4 million a month. Westbrook
was just becoming an
All-Star, Harden hadn’t
yet reached that level.
And they had Durant
on those OKC teams,
the last of which was
good enough to get to
the NBA Finals and get
swiftly taken out by
Miami in ﬁve games.
There’s no Durant this
time to help their cause.
Plus, sure, they spent
those three years together in Oklahoma City,
but Harden’s role was so
much different then. He
and Westbrook started
together in seven games
over those three seasons.
Superstar duos are all
the rage right now in
the NBA, a basic necessity for any team interested in winning a title.
Harden had them before
in Houston: It was him
and Dwight Howard for
a while, him and Paul
for the last couple of
years — not to mention
him, Paul and Carmelo
Anthony for 10 games
this past season before
the Rockets gave up on
the ‘Melo experiment.
None of them for Harden worked as planned.
This one had better be
different, for Houston’s
sake. Westbrook only
gets older and more
expensive every year
from here, meaning if
this partnership doesn’t
work it could be difﬁcult
for the Rockets to move
him and try to create
yet another star duo
for Harden. This move
means the Rockets are
all in — championship
or bust.
Harden is elite but has
no rings yet.
Westbrook is elite but
has no rings yet.

Tiger Woods has played just three tournaments, 10 rounds, since he won the Masters. For only the seventh time in his career, he
went from one major to the next without having played in between, and then he missed the cut at Bethpage Black in the PGA
Championship.

New Tiger manages health than game
By Doug Ferguson
Associated Press

That was Tiger Woods
in his red shirt on Sunday at the Masters. That
was Tiger Woods slipping on the green jacket.
But it’s not the same
Tiger Woods.
The evidence has less
to do with how he plays
— still plenty good to
beat the best in the world
on the biggest stage —
and more to do with how
often he plays.
The chanting and
cheering Sunday afternoon at Augusta National
sounded as though it
would go on forever.
Woods, 11 years and four
back surgeries removed
from his last major,
methodically worked his
way around the back nine
and beat a cast of contenders that included the
last two major champions (Brooks Koepka and
Francesco Molinari) and
the No. 1 player in the
world (Dustin Johnson).
It was his 15th major,
and it started anew the
countdown in his pursuit
of Jack Nicklaus and his
record 18 majors.
That now seems a lot
longer than three months
ago. Woods has played
just three tournaments
— 10 rounds — since
he won the Masters. For
only the seventh time in
his career, he went from
one major to the next
without having played
in between, and then he
missed the cut at Bethpage Black in the PGA
Championship.Unusual?
Not anymore. He goes

into the British Open,
which starts next week
on a Royal Portrush
links he has never seen,
having not played since
he shot 69 in the ﬁnal
round at Pebble Beach
on June 16. A good back
nine allowed him to tie
for 21st. He ﬁnished 11
shots behind Gary Woodland.
There were not many
options. Woods has not
played the week after the
U.S. Open since 2003.
Instead of having the
Quicken Loans National,
which his foundation
ran, the tour offered two
new events in Detroit
and Minnesota. The only
time Woods has played a
week before the British
Open was in 1995, when
he was still in college. He
played the Scottish Open
at Carnoustie ahead of
the British Open at St.
Andrews.
His only public activity since Pebble Beach
was a social media post
for Nike on Monday in
which he says he is getting up at 1 a.m. because
that would be 6 a.m. at
Royal Portrush, and he
wanted “to be prepared
for the time change.”
“If you want to succeed, if you want to
get better, if you want
to win, if you want to
accomplish your goals,
well, it starts with getting up early in the morning,” he said.
The inactivity is another reminder that Woods
is managing his health
as much as his game.
Most telling was what he
said at Bethpage Black:

“There are more days I
feel older than my age
than I do younger than
my age,” he said.
What to expect at the
ﬁnal major of the year?
Anything.
No one was more perplexed about his lack of
competition going into
the British Open than
Padraig Harrington.
“If you’re serious about
winning The Open,
you’ve got to be playing
tournament golf at least
before it,” Harrington
said. “You’d rather be
playing links golf and
being in a tournament
than just on your own
going into it.”
That was never the
case with Woods. In his
younger days, Woods
came over to Ireland
with Mark O’Meara for a
mix of links golf and ﬁshing, either at Portmarnock or Royal County
Down, and sometimes to
the south in Waterville.
In a 10-year stretch since
he ﬁrst went to Ireland,
Woods won the Open
three times and contended in three others.
“I think it has been
instrumental in preparing for the British Open,
not only for getting
adjusted for the time, but
also getting used to playing links golf,” he said in
2002 in Ireland, where
he won a World Golf
Championship. “We play
in all different types of
weather, which certainly
makes it interesting. And
I think it’s instrumental
in my preparation for
The Open Championship.”

Harrington wasn’t
being as critical of
Woods as the headlines
suggested. There is
simply a different way
to prepare, and no one
can argue with Woods’
results.
“I was always mightily
impressed when Tiger
Woods would play in a
major without playing
the week before,” Harrington said. “I’d be a
basket case if I didn’t
play the week before.
Different personalities.
Completely different.”
Woods ﬁnished last
year with a victory in
the Tour Championship,
and he had been building
toward that. He inched
closer to contention two
weeks before the British
Open, and then had the
lead brieﬂy on Sunday at
Carnoustie and tied for
sixth. He pushed Koepka
all the way to the end in
a runner-up ﬁnish at the
PGA Championship.
And then he won at
East Lake.
Since then? He was
clearly fatigued at the
Ryder Cup, where he
didn’t win a match, and
after two months away
from the game, he ﬁnished 17th against an
18-man ﬁeld in the Bahamas. He played three
tournaments in a ﬁveweek stretch to start this
year and ﬁnished nearly
11 shots out of the lead
on average. And then he
skipped Bay Hill, citing
soreness in his neck. His
explanation was simple.
Sometimes he doesn’t
feel that great, a product
of age and injuries.

Ex-pitcher Dwight Gooden charged with drug possession
HOLMDEL, N.J. (AP)
— Former New York
Mets pitcher Dwight
Gooden has been charged
with drug possession in
New Jersey after a trafﬁc
stop last month.
Gooden’s car was
stopped by police in Holmdel, about 20 miles (30
kilometers) from New
York, early on June 7 for
failure to maintain a lane

and driving too slow,
according to a criminal
complaint provided by
the Monmouth County
prosecutor’s ofﬁce.
Two plastic baggies
allegedly containing
cocaine were found in the
54-year-old Gooden’s car.
Gooden has been
charged with cocaine
possession, possession of
drug paraphernalia and

being under the inﬂuence
of drugs.
The New York Post
was ﬁrst to report on
the criminal charges in a
story published Friday.
Gooden’s attorney, William Petrillo, asked the
public to “reserve judgment.”
He said that the former
player “is a kind man
with a generous heart,

who continually volunteers his time doing charitable work. He is loved
by many and has the full
support of family and
friends.”
Gooden is scheduled
to make an initial court
appearance July 23.
The ex-pitcher won
the National League Cy
Young Award while with
the Mets in 1985 and was

a member of the Mets’
1986 World Series championship team. He also
played for the New York
Yankees.
He was suspended from
baseball for part of the
1994 season and all of the
1995 season after testing
positive for cocaine.
Yankees manager Aaron
Boone called Gooden
“a beloved ﬁgure in our

game and uniquely in this
town with the Mets and
here with the Yankees.
”I think all of us probably in this room have
dealt with people dealing
with substance abuse,
alcohol, whatever it may
be,” Boone continued. “I
think we can all relate a
little bit, feel for him and
certainly, my heart goes
out to Dwight.”

To mark the return,
the AP is reprinting this
story about the conclusion of the 80th British
Open. It ﬁrst appeared on
July 6, 1951.

Charles (Chuck) Rotar,
onetime Canton pro now
with the United States
Army in Germany, got a
75 and a total of 303.
Charley Ward, a little
British Ryder Cup player,
clung to the leaders’
ﬂanks with a scorching 68
on his last round, and got
third with a total of 290.
Fred Daly, a curlyhaired Irishman who won
the Open in 1947, and big
Jimmy Adams of Scotland, who led on the ﬁrst
day, tied for fourth with
292s.
The great Bobby Locke,
seeking his third straight
British Open crown, lost
his famous putting skill
and wound up with a 293
in a tie for sixth with four
others.
In his morning round,
Bobby missed nine putts
of six feet or less, and
repeated almost that
many in the afternoon
as he slow-poked his
way around in three and
one half hours per trip
— backing up the ﬁeld
behind him. Locke had
a pair of 74s today, to
match his score of yesterday. Only on the ﬁrst day
was he able to break par,
with a 71.

TORONTO (AP) —
Robert Wickens has
attacked his rehabilitation from a spinal cord
injury with aggressive
goals. The Canadian
wants to dance at his
upcoming wedding,
one day walk again
with zero evidence his
legs once did not work
and, of course, Wickens
hopes to return to racing cars. Nearly a year
after his devastating
injury in an IndyCar
race, Wickens will get
to drive a car again at
a track. He will lead
the parade lap Sunday
before the Toronto
IndyCar race in an
Acura NSX equipped
with hand controls.
“It’s just been quite
the ride and we are
not even one year in
of what’s going to be
a very long recovery,”
Wickens said Friday.
“Hopefully, I can keep
on driving because I
think that’s the best
therapy I can have.
I am a little bit concerned by how eager I
am to get back in the
car.”
Wickens got a chance
Thursday to drive

the car — he thanked
Honda for trusting
him with the $157,000
Acura — and said he
quickly bent a wheel
during his laps around
Exhibition Place.
“I am notoriously
hard on equipment,” he
laughed.
The modiﬁcations
to the car were made
by Arrow, sponsor of
the Arrow Schmidt
Peterson Motorsports
team Wickens drove
for last season. In
2014, Arrow developed
a Semi-Autonomous
Motorcar (SAM) Car
that allowed team
owner Schmidt, who
is paralyzed from the
neck down, to get back
in a car. For Wickens’
drive, Arrow devised
a kit that controls the
throttle and acceleration with a ring on the
steering wheel and
through software. The
brake is a mechanical
handbrake with the
driver’s right hand,
there is no clutch and
Wickens will shift using
paddles on the steering
wheel. He’s had roughly
two hours behind the
wheel of the car that

included a shakedown
this week at Canadian
Tire Motorsports Park.
Arrow also has updated the brakes, tires and
seatbelts, and Arrow
CEO Mike Long said
the company is invested in getting Wickens
back into a race car on
a regular basis.
“I think everybody
in the world was wondering is will Robert
go fast again?” Long
said. “I will tell you I
don’t think there’s any
question. We wanted
to start this now with
Robert so we can be
a part of his rehab
together with our
friends at Honda and
get Robby back to racing, because that’s what
he wants, and we’re
going to be there to
support that effort all
the way.”
Talks began over
the winter between
Wickens and Arrow,
which has developed
technology that assists
the driver but does not
take control from the
driver — an important
distinction between
independence over convenience.

SPARTA, Ky. (AP) —
Cole Custer was never
really challenged down
the stretch. He just acted
like Christopher Bell was
in his rear-view mirror,
an approach that motivated him to keep a safe
distance.
Custer grabbed an
Xﬁnity Series-high ﬁfth
victory of the season
Friday night with a win
over Bell at Kentucky
Speedway.
“He got a little close
and I was deﬁnitely
sweating a little bit,” said
Custer, who fell backward off his car during
the victory lane celebration. “He was deﬁnitely
our competition there at
the end, but we had the
better car. I was sweating
after that green ﬂag pit
stop because he closed in
on me and I had trouble
with lappers, but we had
a good enough car to pull
away.”
Custer, Bell and reigning series champion
Tyler Reddick have dominated the series all year

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — The Washington Nationals are pushing back Max Scherzer’s next start
because the ace right-hander is dealing with back
soreness. Manager Dave Martinez says an MRI on
Scherzer’s back came back negative, and the threetime Cy Young Award winner threw from 75 feet on
Friday. Scherzer experienced soreness in his middle
back after his last start. Anibal Sanchez will start in
his place on Sunday against the Phillies in the ﬁnal
game of a three-game series. Scherzer was 7-0 with
a 0.84 ERA in his last nine starts before the All-Star

NEW YORK (AP) — Oakland Raiders guard Richie Incognito has been suspended without pay by the
NFL for the ﬁrst two games of the regular season for
violating the league’s personal conduct policy.
Incognito pleaded guilty in April to disorderly
conduct in Scottsdale, Arizona, after being accused
of threatening employees at a funeral home where his
father’s body was being held.
The Raiders signed Incognito in May. He sat out
last season in retirement.
The 36-year-old Incognito has played 11 years in
the NFL, making the Pro Bowl four times. He is a
leading contender to start at left guard in Oakland.
But he has also been suspended for bullying former
Miami teammate Jonathan Martin, allegedly made
racist slurs to an opponent during a playoff game in
January 2018 and has had two run-ins with police
