Another combined
one-hitter for Big Un-it
BY THE ASSOCIATED. PRESS

Randy Johnson was way too
much for the San Diego
Padres.Then again, so was Luis
Gonzalez.
Johnson struck out 14 in 7
1- 3 innings and combined
with a pair of relievers on a
one-hitter as the Arizona Diamondbacks overwhelmed the
Padres 11-0 Tuesday night.
"I felt pretty good today arid
felt pretty locked in," Johnson
said.
Gonzalez gave the Big Unit
all the support he needed , hitting his 39th and 40th homers
and driving in five runs. Gonzalez leads the majors with 99
RB!s.
"It's nice, but at the same
time I'm in the middle of a
pennant race," Gonzalez said.
"Our team is focused on trying to win this thing."
·
Gonzalez set a learn record
for homers, surpassing the 38
that Jay Bell hit in 1999.
Bubba Trammell singled in
the first inning for the Padres'
Jone hit off Johnson (13-5).
Relievers Troy Brohawn and
Erik Sabel finished up th~
shutout for the NL West lead-

m.

Last Thursday, Johnson
struck out 16 in seven innings
of relief against San Diego,
completing a suspended game
begun a day earlier by Curt
Schilling. The Padres only had
one hit in that. game, too.
"You're talking one of the
greatest pitchers of all time
with what he's accomplished,"
Padres manager Bruce Bochy
said. "You know you have

Houston scored twice in the
tt.ird off Matt Morris (12-6),
.whose. error played a key role
in the inning. Craig Biggio's
single drove in one run, an;!
jeff Bagwell's sacrifice fly
drove home the other.

Phillies 10, Expos 2
Nelson Figueroa (2-2)
allowed two runs in 7 2-3
innings and had three hits, and
Tomas Perez homered from
each side of the plate for the
first multihomer game his
career.
Travis Lee added a three-run
homer in a six-run third at
Philadelphia, which won for
just the fifth time in 13 games
since the All-Star break and
closed within one game of
first-place Atlanta in the NL
East.

six runs and eight hits in three

AMERICAN
LEAGUE
A's win in bott\)m' of
ninth - Dye deal on

-deck?
The Oakland Athletics did
just fine without Jermaine
Dye.
While speculation swirled
that the A's would get Dye in
a three-team trade, they beat
Minnesota 7-6 Tuesday night
on third baseman Corey
Koskie's error in the bottom of
the ninth inning.
Terrence Long doubled and
scored when Ron Cant's
grounder got through Koskie's
legs, givi11g Oakland its eighth
win in 10 games.
The surging A's, a major
league-best 16-5 in July, closed
within four games of the
Twins for the wild-card spot.
Minnesota lost its fifth in a
row.
Meanwhile, trade talk heated up involving Dye. An AllStar outfielder last year, he

CLEVELAND (AP) -Don't go kicking any
infield dirt on the Chicago White Sox just yet.
"We still have time left;' said manager Jerry
Manuel after his club again climbed one game
over .500 Tuesday night with a 4-1 win over the
Cleveland Indians.
"If we can hang around, apd get hot like we
· ldid earlier this season when we went 22-7, I'd
like our chances."
The defending AL Central champions were
14-29 on May 23, but despite losing Frank
Thomas and David Wells to season-ending
injuries, they've gone 35-20 since and are how
· within eight games of the Indians.
".We've .got it back to .500," said Sean Lowe.
(6-2), who dominated the Indians for 7 2-3
innings. "Hopefully, we can climb above that
now."
Lowe, who has been bounced . around by
Chicago the past two years,..!Jad the most dominant start of his career and Ray Durham hit a
rwo-run homer and thrt;w out a runner at
home to lead the White Sox.
"That's about as good as I can pitch," lowe
said.
Lowe was rocked by the Indians in his previous start last week at home, but rebounde'd by
striking out a career-high eight. He also got
some help from his defense as Chicago gunned
down two runners at the plate in the fifth.
Lowe gave up a career-high 11 hits in losing
to the Indians on July 19, but the converted
middle reli~ver who replaced Wells in the starting rotation, was in control finm the start.

"I didn't do a whole lot different," said Lowe.
"I just didn't make as many pitches over the
middle of the plate. The strikeouts? I don't
know how ! did that."
Lowe gave up six hits, walked none, retired
the side in order four times and didn't allow a
hit urttil the fourth. Lowe's previous best was
four strikeouts - accomplished three times.
"Sean Lowe has really been our backbone this
entire year," said White Sox manager Jerry
Manuel. "He has really picked us up in relief,

Lowe said that at times it's been difficult to

. POMEROY - Purchase of awnings for
gazebos on the riverfront was approved
when Pomeroy Merchants Association
met recently in the Peoples Bank conference room.
John Musser noted that two $500 donations for downtown beautification projects
had been received and it was his suggestion
that part of the money go toward the cost

of the awnings. The awmngs cost about
$450, he «tid .
.
The need for replacement of some landscape timbers used in the planting area was
also noted.
Again discussed was the possibility of a
booth at the Meigs County Fair. It was
noted that a decision had been mode at last
momh's meeting not to have one this year
because the merchants felt it was not beneficial to their businesses. That decision was

· confirmed at the meeting.
It was reported that only 12 tickets were
sold for the garden tour ·and the lack of
success was attributed to rainy weather.
Things are moving right along for the
bass fishing tournament to be held on Aug.
24, it was reported. George Wright updated members on the 2003 Civil War reenactment program scheduled here.

Gerard said May is on federal probation for a past convi ction, and that i&lt;:Jcal officials expect that the feds will

OVP NEWS EDITOR

POINT PLEASANT, W.Va.
- After 60 years of servin g
customers in th e tri-county
area, Carolina Lumber Company is closing its doors.
Owner Marl ene Slusser said
the economy is a contributin g
factor to the closure, in addition
to she and husband Randy 's
desire to retire. Randy Slusser
serves as manager of the business.
"I love Point Pleasant, but I
want to be close to my family,"
Slusser said.
The thought of seUing the
fa.mily-owned business was
considered, but Slusser said the
expense of advertising the sale
would have caused the doors to
close earlier.
Founded in 1941 by Slusser's
grandfather, D. C. Thompson,

and operated by ner father,
Leon Thbmpson , Slusse r took
over the business in ·1990.
The original site of the busine'l was Highland Avenue ,
across from the old depot. The
business moved to it' 312 Sixth
St. location in the 1960s.
C arolina Lumber has a mill
on site and inventory of everything for building from scratch
to remodeling.
Slusser said the busin ess currently employs 17 people, in
addition to herself and her husband.The employees have been
notified of the pending closure,
Slusser said.
She estimates the doors wiU
be closed by th e b~g inning of
O ctober: The closure process
requires a license from the state,
which takes 10 days, before the
inventory clearan ce, which
must be complete in 60 day&lt; .

"We've been getting calls

POINT PLEASANT, W.Va.
- After 60 years of servin g
customers in th e tri-county
area, Carolina Lumber Company is closing its doors.
Owner Marl ene Slusser said
the economy is a contributin g
factor to the closure, in addition
to she and husband Randy 's
desire to retire. Randy Slusser
serves as manager of the business.
"I love Point Pleasant, but I
want to be close to my family,"
Slusser said.
The thought of seUing the
fa.mily-owned business was
considered, but Slusser said the
expense of advertising the sale
would have caused the doors to
close earlier.
Founded in 1941 by Slusser's
grandfather, D. C. Thompson,

and operated by ner father,
Leon Thbmpson , Slusse r took
over the business in ·1990.
The original site of the busine'l was Highland Avenue ,
across from the old depot. The
business moved to it' 312 Sixth
St. location in the 1960s.
C arolina Lumber has a mill
on site and inventory of everything for building from scratch
to remodeling.
Slusser said the busin ess currently employs 17 people, in
addition to herself and her husband.The employees have been
notified of the pending closure,
Slusser said.
She estimates the doors wiU
be closed by th e b~g inning of
O ctober: The closure process
requires a license from the state,
which takes 10 days, before the
inventory clearan ce, which
must be complete in 60 day&lt; .

MOSCOW (AP) National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice said Thursday that the United States will not
wait for Russian agreement to deploy a planned national
missile defense system.
Following a meeting w ith Russian President Vladimir

Earl~}his week, Putin and President Bush announced
that tallCJ-on missile defense wou ld be linked with talks on
cutting strategic nuclear weapons. Some observers saw the

Kremlin were moving toward a resolution of the longstanding dispute on missile defense.
Rice stressed that talks should move along quickly WASHINGTON ' (AP) - The government pu't the first on the e!tpert level, then between ministers and then

On TV

City data shows a surge in
water movement at a nearby
reservoir after the derailment,
which offi cials said suggested
the water main break followed the accident involving
60 frei"ght cars.
But National Transportation Safety Board investigators were examining the cen- .
tury-old cast-iron pipe to
determine
whether
the
derailment was caused by the
burst water main. They also
have requested city records
on the break.
"The investigation continues," Jay Kivowitz, the lead
NTSB
investigator, said
Wednesd~y night before a
meeting with other investigators and the · city's deputy
mayor. "It's very tedious

the water main break followed the accident involving

But National Transportation Safety Board investigators were examining the cen- .

determine
whether
the
derailment was caused by the
burst water main. They also
have requested city records

ATHENS - Meigs scored
early and often , en route to a
20-6 pounding over Wellston
in American Legion Eighth
DiStrict tournament action
Wednesday evening at Athens
High School's Rannow Field.
The game was called after
seven innings due to the
mercy rule.
Meigs will now advance to
action on Th~rsday evening
when they play the Athens
Spartans at 5:30 at Rannow
Field. Meigs defeated the
Spartans 9-6 in the first game
of the double-elimination
tournament Monday evening.
The Spartans advanced to
play Meigs with a forfeit win
over Logan. The Spartans led
in the early game 9-2 in the
seventh inning when a Logan
player was ejected, leaving no
one on the bench to play, thus
Athens was awarded the win.
It w~s a long night at the
field. The Athens/Logan game
was set to start at 5:30, but
heavy rains ·late in the afternoon pushed the start back to
around 7:00. The Meigs game
got underway just after 9:00,
and didn't finish until 12:30
a.tn.

Meigs pounded out 16 hits
off four Wellston pitchers led
by John Stanley. Stanley went

CLEVELAND CAMP

Browns give fonner prep phenom fresh start
l3EREA, Ohio (AP) - Going through
life named after a sports cream, Ben Gay has
heJni his fair share ofjokes.
"Everyday," said Gay, the enigmatic rookie running back trying to win a job with
the Cleveland Browns. "Everywhere I go."
Moving around, however, has been Gay's
downfall.
And, pardon yet another punch line, but
this l3en Cay. has rubbed some people the
wrong way.
A Texas high school football phenom,
Gay has been on the run for the past three
years. And he hasn't been tackled so much
as he's tripped over his 0 wn feet.
"He's such a mystery," said Dwight Clark,
Cleveland's director of football operations.
Recruited. by nearly every· major program in the country, Gay had a short stay at
Baylor before grade problems made him
ineligible and he was dismissed for rules
violations.
There was hJS 1998 stopover at Garden
City Community College, in Kansas where
.he rushed for 1,500 yards in nine games.
Then it was on to the CFL. He lasted just
two weeks.
Gay has been compared to · Bo Jackson
and Emmitt Smith. He's been called .a manchild. A mystery.
At j ust 21, the engaging Gay has gone
from a being a legend to a long shot.
Now, he's starting over - ·again.
''I'm here. I made it to the show," Gay
-\;aid Tuesday sitting in a chair in the Browm'
locker ~om. "I can't think of doing noth.
ing else in my. life right now. I'm looking at
this as a beginning. I'm looking at this as my.
1

new life."

Browns coac h Butch Davis, who tried to
recruit Gay at Miami, called him last week
and offered Gay a chance to play. in the
NFL
" He said, 'I know you can play ball, Now
come here and be a man'," Gay recalled. "I

OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) -Jermaine Dye's parents might not
-f.ave moved away from Vacaville, Calif., a few months ago if
they had known their son was coming home.
Dye was traded to the Oakland Athletics on Wednesday in a
three-team, five- player deal. Shortstop Neifi Perez went from _
Colorado to Kansas City, with three A's minor-leaguers gomg
to the Rockies.
.The A's went to their favorite farm team - the Royals - to
acquire Dye, a power-hitting outfielder who won a Gold Glove
last season. The deal practically guarantees Oakland wtll hang
on to its talented core of players to make a se rious run at the
postseason."

~fter engineering his latest comphcated trade, Oakl~nd general manager Billy Beane said he hopes Dye can prov1de some
of the offensive spark the A's have lacked.
.
Oakland gave up Jose Ortiz - thought last sp~mg to be the .
A's next starting second baseman -- along_ w1th outfielder
Mario Encarnacion and left-handerTodd Behtz.
Dye is the third starting outfielder/designated hitter .t~e .A's
have acquired from Kansas City in the last two seasons,Jommg
Johnny Damon and Jeremy Giamb_i. Oakland also has traded
backup catchers with the Royals thts season. .
Dye graduated fiom htgh school · m Vacavtlle, a suburban
town between Oakland and Sacramento. Dye's parents moved
recently, but he grew up a San Francisco Giants fan, because .hts
bus-driver father often took him to Candlesttck Park to watch
batting practice.
.
.
Dye, 27, was hitting .272 with 13 !.omers and4 7 RB!s m 97

CLEVELAND CAMP

Browns give fonner prep phenom fresh start
l3EREA, Ohio (AP) - Going through
life named after a sports cream, Ben Gay has
heJni his fair share ofjokes.
"Everyday," said Gay, the enigmatic rookie running back trying to win a job with
the Cleveland Browns. "Everywhere I go."
Moving around, however, has been Gay's
downfall.
And, pardon yet another punch line, but
this l3en Cay. has rubbed some people the
wrong way.
A Texas high school football phenom,
Gay has been on the run for the past three
years. And he hasn't been tackled so much
as he's tripped over his 0 wn feet.
"He's such a mystery," said Dwight Clark,
Cleveland's director of football operations.
Recruited. by nearly every· major program in the country, Gay had a short stay at
Baylor before grade problems made him
ineligible and he was dismissed for rules
violations.
There was hJS 1998 stopover at Garden
City Community College, in Kansas where
.he rushed for 1,500 yards in nine games.
Then it was on to the CFL. He lasted just
two weeks.
Gay has been compared to · Bo Jackson
and Emmitt Smith. He's been called .a manchild. A mystery.
At j ust 21, the engaging Gay has gone
from a being a legend to a long shot.
Now, he's starting over - ·again.
''I'm here. I made it to the show," Gay
-\;aid Tuesday sitting in a chair in the Browm'
locker ~om. "I can't think of doing noth.
ing else in my. life right now. I'm looking at
this as a beginning. I'm looking at this as my.
1

new life."

Browns coac h Butch Davis, who tried to
recruit Gay at Miami, called him last week
and offered Gay a chance to play. in the
NFL
" He said, 'I know you can play ball, Now
come here and be a man'," Gay recalled. "I

OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) -Jermaine Dye's parents might not
-f.ave moved away from Vacaville, Calif., a few months ago if
they had known their son was coming home.
Dye was traded to the Oakland Athletics on Wednesday in a
three-team, five- player deal. Shortstop Neifi Perez went from _
Colorado to Kansas City, with three A's minor-leaguers gomg
to the Rockies.
.The A's went to their favorite farm team - the Royals - to
acquire Dye, a power-hitting outfielder who won a Gold Glove
last season. The deal practically guarantees Oakland wtll hang
on to its talented core of players to make a se rious run at the
postseason."
.
~fter engineering his latest comphcated trade, Oakl~nd general manager Billy Beane said he hopes Dye can prov1de some
of the offensive spark the A's have lacked.
.
Oakland gave up Jose Ortiz - thought last sp~mg to be the .
A's next starting second baseman -- along_ w1th outfielder
Mario Encarnacion and left-handerTodd Behtz.
Dye is the third starting outfielder/designated hitter .t~e .A's
have acquired from Kansas City in the last two seasons,Jommg
Johnny Damon and Jeremy Giamb_i. Oakland also has traded
backup catchers with the Royals thts season. .
Dye graduated fiom htgh school · m Vacavtlle, a suburban
town between Oakland and Sacramento. Dye's parents moved
recently, but he grew up a San Francisco Giants fan, because .hts
bus-driver father often took him to Candlesttck Park to watch
batting practice.
.
.
Dye, 27, was hitting .272 with 13 !.omers and4 7 RB!s m 97

OMEROY- 4-Hers came with

and pretty posters to the Meigs
County Extension Office.
It was time for the projects they had complet ed to
be judged in preparation for exhibiting at the Mei gs
County Fair Aug. 13-18, and recognition for their
summer's work.
·
Fifty-two 'projects were judged by Cindy Oliveri,
Ohio State University Extension di strict specialist
· for family consumer sciences; Joyce Shriner, H ocking CountyExtension agent, and Judy Clark of Gallipolis.
Grand and reserve champions were named and
several of the 4-Hers were given honorable mention
on their projects.

POMEROY - Robert Fife's request to
withdraw his guilty plea from a 1993 criminal case has been denied, and Judge Fred
W. Crow Ill called Fife's daims that he was
afr aid to file the ,motio n until the former
prosecu tor and assistant prosecutor left
'
office "patently absurd."
In ·a nearly identical j udgment entry,
Crow h as also denied a similar motion on
the part of Fred M. Pr\ddy, convicted o~
drug charges in 1999. Both Fife and Priddy were represented in their motions by
Columbus attorney Thomas J. DeBacco.
Fife was convicted of trafficking in food
stamps and r~ceiving stolen property, and
forfeited . a firearms collection and
. $245,000 in cash as a term of his plea
agreement.
,
He was_originally accused of operating
an illegal pawn shop from his South Third
Aven ue home in Middleport.
In his motion, he asked to withdraw his
guilty plea, citing manifest injustice on the
parts of former Prosecutor John Lentes and
former Sheriff James M . Soulsby.
C row, in an entry filed Wednesday, wrote
that Fife filed his motion in error, that he
should have petitioned for post-conviction
relief, and that, regardle ss, his request comes
far too late.
"Fife did not appeal his original conviction, and the time for direct appeal has long
expired," C row wrote. "It is untimely by
over 4- 1/ 2 years."
C row also wrote that Fife's claims that he
feared retribution from Lentes and Knight
· were absurd, and that such fears did not
prevent Fife from filing for post-conviction
relief before the one-year deadline after
co nvict ion.
"The cou rt finds this argument patently
absurd," Crow wro te. "If the departure of
Lentes and Knight was Fife's primary concern, th en one would expect him to have
filed in ea rly Janu ary 2001, when Lentes
left office, not five months later."
" His ·recourse was to timely challenge
