A few cracks but no big GOP break with Trump By Steve Peoples, Lisa Mascaro and Kathy Mccormack Associated Press WASHINGTON — The most powerful Republicans in Washington stood ﬁrmly behind President Donald Trump and his unsupported claims of voter fraud on Thursday, but new cracks emerged among GOP leaders elsewhere who believe it’s time for the administration to treat Democrat Joe Biden like the president-elect he is. New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu, who endorsed Trump’s reelection, became the latest Republican ofﬁcial to say what Trump and his allies refuse to accept. The GOP governor acknowledged that Biden’s lead is getting “bigger and bigger by the day” and Trump’s legal options are dissipating. “Joe Biden is the president-elect, and I think like most Americans, we suspect he’ll be taking the oath of ofﬁce in January,” Sununu told reporters, insisting there was no legal fraud in his state, which Biden easily carried. That’s a departure from the overwhelming majority of Republican ofﬁcials who still refuse to publicly accept Biden’s victory. The resistance is complicating Biden’s effort to lead a smooth LONDON (AP) — The number of children sickened by measles in 2019 was the highest in 23 years, according to new data published by the World Health Organization and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In a study published on Thursday, WHO and CDC said there were nearly 870,000 cases of measles last year, and the number of deaths — about 207,500 — increased by almost 50% since 2016. Ofﬁcials blamed the record number of cases on a signiﬁcant drop in vaccination; children must receive two doses of the measles vaccine to avoid being sickened by the highly contagious disease. “These data send a clear message that we are failing to protect children from measles in every region of the world,” said WHO directorgeneral Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus in a statement. To prevent measles outbreaks, WHO estimates about 95% of the population must be immunized. Vaccination coverage using two measles vaccines has stalled between about 70% and 85% globally.

Scott Applewhite | AP Even in the face of overwhelming evidence of President-elect Joe Biden’s victory, senior Republicans like GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy continue to support President Trump as he loses a mounting number of legal challenges. transition to the January inauguration, keeping him from the funding and agency resources typically afforded to an incoming administration. Worried about the national security implications of those hurdles, some Republicans are beginning to say that Biden should at least have access to intelligence brieﬁngs so he has the most complete information about threats facing the country when he takes ofﬁce. “I think - especially on classiﬁed brieﬁngs - the answer is yes,” said the Senate’s most senior Republican, Chuck Grassley of Iowa. That echoed comments by South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham and Oklahoma Sen. James Lankford, among other GOP colleagues. However, Grassley also said he saw no reason for Biden to have fuller transition access, sticking with an approach from the disputed 2000 election that was later blamed as a national security shortcoming in the Sept. 11 terror attacks. The Republicans willing to break publicly with Trump’s unprecedented effort to undermine the election remain an extremely small minority. Just a handful of the Senate’s 53 and ﬁve of the 28 Republican governors had publicly recognized Biden as the president-elect as of Thursday afternoon. Many Trump allies in Washington see no path to a Trump victory but remain wary of crossing the outgoing Republican president -- or his supporters -- especially with control of the Senate still uncertain. Trump turned out a record 72 million voters in the presidential election, which shattered the previous record yet fell 5 million votes short of Biden. Republican leaders believe they need to keep Trump and his base happy and engaged ahead of two upcoming Georgia runoff elections that will determine the Senate majority.

If you’re a parent then it is a foregone conclusion: you DO feel that way at times. “Can’t we turn the video game volume down a little bit?”; “What’s that? You can’t hear me over your brother?”; and “Didn’t you hear me say that you need Thom to clean Mollohan up your Contributing room?”. columnist And maybe it’s not just with children that you feel that no one listens to you. You may feel that at work your stand for what’s right is laughed at or ignored by others. You may even feel that voting is pointless and that your vote cannot make a difference. If that isn’t enough to depress you then just remember that this is an election year. Not being heard when you have something to say is terribly frustrating, particularly when what you have to say is a matter of life and death. As Christians, our lives revolve around a message that truly is a matter of life and death. As carefully and as determinedly as we might try to share that message, there is no denying that there are multitudes of voices and messages trying to compete for the same ears. In fact, you may be frequently confronted by this when you share about God’s love with others. Perhaps you invite someone to church and he says, “Well, I’d like to be in church but I’ve got yard work on this day, meetings on that day, ballgames on this night, my favorite show is on the other, and don’t forget my unused vacation days. Sorry: no time left. Sundays? But that’s the only day I can sleep in.” And if you, merely a messenger, feel frustrated about a culture that won’t slow down and carefully listen to the message of Eternal Life, what does the One Who sent the message in the ﬁrst place feel? In Isaiah 48, the Lord laments over His people who have gotten so far away from Him and His loving commandments that they only know heartache, disappointment and loss. “If only you had paid attention to My commands, your peace would have been like a river, your righteousness like the waves of the sea” (Isaiah 48:18). God yearns for us to heed Him and knows that for us to possess the peace that He has promised we must listen and obey His voice. “Listen to Me,… I am He; I am the First, and I am the Last. My hand laid the foundation of the earth, and My right hand spread out the heavens; when I summon them, they stand at attention…. Thus says the LORD, Your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: I am the LORD your God, Who teaches you for your own good, Who leads you in the way you should go” (Isaiah 48:1213,17). Think of it! Even the heavens stand at attention at the summons of the King of Kings. How much more then, as God summons us from among a people too busy to walk with Him and too busy to serve, will those who hear Him calling, jump to attention and respond to His invitation of grace? As He calls you to come out from under the power of sin, death and despair, will you have ears to hear and receive His invitation to join Him? “In a time of favor I have answered you; in a day of salvation I have helped you; I will keep you and give you as a covenant to the people, to establish the land, to apportion the desolate heritages, saying to the prisoners, ‘Come out,’ to those who are in darkness, ‘Appear.’ They shall feed along the ways; on all bare heights shall be their pasture; they shall not hunger or thirst, neither scorching wind nor sun shall strike them, for He who has pity on them will lead them, and by springs of water will guide them” (Isaiah 49:810 ESV).

Viewpoints expressed are the work of the author.) SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES Are we reflecting the peace of Christ God created man to be united together with Him, as well as to be united together with one another. Though the world is ﬁlled with division, Jesus was promised to be the Prince of Peace (cf. Isaiah 9:6) and He offers the world a path of peace. Paul, writing to the Thessalonians, recognized that in Johnathan Christ such McAnulty peace was Contributing possible, columnist and had this prayer for them: “Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in every way (2 Thessalonians 3:16; ESV).” Christians need to recognize how important it is for them to seek for peace, not least because God has commanded it. “If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all. (Romans 12:18; ESV)” And elsewhere, “I appeal to you, brothers, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be united in the same mind and the same judgment (1 Corinthians 1:10; ESV).” Christians who do not seek after peace are ignoring the clear will of God for them in their lives. As with all those things God commands His people to seek after, God values peace and unity as a good within itself. Unity is one of the high ideals that God wants men to seek to obtain so that they might have a better life. “Behold, how good and pleasant it is when brothers dwell in unity! (Psalm 133:1)” Our lives are demonstrably better when we have peace with those around us. Our souls are only secure when we have peace with God. We can only have lasting joy when we have obtained peace within ourselves. Peace is greatly to be desired. It follows reasonably, that if peace, unity and love are good and right for men to seek, then that which destroys unity, dividing men and creating hostility, is naturally wrong, evil, and undesirable. The Bible declares there are seven things that are an abomination to the Lord. The penultimate of these is a false witness: one who spreads slander and lies. The last and ﬁnal is one who sows discord between brothers (cf. Proverbs 6:16-19). It is no small thing, in the eyes of God, to bring about discord and disunity. The person who works to create division is seen by God as being one with liars and murderers, and other such, who have no part in God’s kingdom. “Now the works of the ﬂesh are evident:…” says the Word of God, and these works include: “enmity, strife, jealousy, ﬁts of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions, envy,… and things like these.” The passage goes on to say, “Concerning such behavior I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. (Galatians 5:19-21; ESV)” James bluntly says that wisdom which promotes selﬁsh ambition, bitter jealousy, and discord is demonic in origin. The wisdom of God is “ﬁrst pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and sincere (James 3:17).” James also wisely advises: “let every person be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger; for the anger of man does not produce the righteousness of God (James 1:19-20).” Whenever we are losing our temper, jumping to conclusions concerning other people, or refusing to listen to their side of the story, we are failing to produce the interactions God wants us to be producing. Whenever we are actively working to promote division and discord, we are actively doing the devil’s work. If we desire to produce the righteousness of God, we must follow a different path: one of peace. “A harvest of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace (James 3:18; ESV). Over and over and over again, God warns us in His word that His creation needs to seek to get along with one another. So important is this, that it was part of the reason for the death of Christ. “For he himself is our peace, who has made us both one and has broken down in his ﬂesh the dividing wall of hostility by abolishing the law of commandments expressed in ordinances, that he might create in himself one new man in place of the two, so making peace, and might reconcile us both to God in one body through the cross, thereby killing the hostility. And he came and preached peace to See SEARCH | 8 Are any of you familiar with the ABC’s of Christianity? The ABC’s of Christianity are: Ask, Believe, Confess. That is an easy way to remember how we are to be saved. I’m assuming that we all have done our ABC’s, so let’s move on to the opposite end of the alphabet — the W’s of Christianity: Word, Worship, Witness, and Works — all very important and valuable words for each and every follower of Christ. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if God had just given us a speciﬁc list Ann of things to do to be Moody a Christian? We could Contributing check off our duties columnist every day and feel pretty good about ourselves and our salvation. There may not be a list available in such a simple form, but our Lord did give us guidelines to follow. For instance, we are told to be baptized or have communion, but depending upon the denomination, that may look quite different. All baptisms though involve water, and all communions use some sort of bread and wine. God gave us a place to ﬁnd out what we should be doing to be good Christians. Where might we ﬁnd those things? The Bible. The Bible is our textbook, our instruction manual - divinely inspired, and given to us as a gift. “In the beginning was the Word,” we read in John 1:1. The Word is the key to everything in our life as a Christian. It is our foundation. Second Timothy 3: 16-17 tells us, “All scripture is inspired by God and is useful for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, so that everyone who belongs to God may be proﬁcient, equipped for every good work”. I am often amazed and reminded that no matter what the circumstance, problem, or situation, there is somewhere in the Bible that addresses it in some way. So our ﬁrst line of offense and defense should be THE WORD – God’s Word – The Bible. In order to know God and His will for our life, as well as put that into action, we must read, study, and speak God’s Word. It is where we get to know God and His character. God’s Word is the standard we are to live by. Then we know not only what is expected of us, but what we can expect from God. His promises are throughout the Bible, and on those we know we can depend. As John 17:17b says, “Your Word is truth.” Our second word is WORSHIP. The Lord adores our Worship. He desires our love, praise, and honor of Him. “ Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth,” it says in Psalm 100. God loves to hear us praising, giving thanks, and singing to Him. If we admit it though, most of us are guilty of mainly complaining or begging to God instead of praising or thanking Him. Complaining keeps us from doing and thinking what we should. It keeps us in a negative place from where we just can’t escape, but praise and thanksgiving lifts us up to realize just how lucky we are to have a God who loves and cares about us in everything that happens to us and opens our minds to Him. Praise and thanksgiving is for God, but beneﬁts us too — more than we realize. We have to be a WITNESS for our Lord and faith. We are God’s living examples here on earth. If we don’t show what faith and love and charity are, then we are not being a good witness to our Lord. Jesus said to go into all the world and proclaim the good news to the whole creation in Mark 16: 15. Your world right now is probably your family and friends. And remember, you may think you are never going to have to preach a sermon, but all of us do preach a sermon everyday by our attitudes, speech, and actions. And ﬁnally, being a good witness involves doing good WORKS in some way or another. Now, we know Jesus said we are not saved by our works, but if you have the heart of a Christian, you will want to be doing the work of the Lord in some way. These works will look different according to our own unique gifts and aptitudes, but we should be working for the Kingdom by being kind and helping others, and doing nice things to help people (including those people in our families.) These four words are excellent to remember: Reading and studying the Word of God, so we know God’s expectations and promises. Worshiping Him in spirit and truth together as Christ’s people, and being a witness to His unfailing love and mercy by doing good works for others everywhere. Sounds so simple when it’s put into a just a few sentences, and it is in most ways. We are the ones that complicate God’s message for ourselves and others by our own fears, selﬁshness, and unforgiveness. Let us pray to God to give us the simple understanding of what it means to love Him and act upon that love in all circumstances for not only our sakes, but for our friends and family too. Let’s say our prayer for the week. God, we love You and want so much to be good Christians in every sense of the word. Please help us to honor You by being the best person we can be, loving people everywhere, and believing in Your help and guidance to do these things for Your glory. In Your holy name, Amen.

CROSS WORDS Knowing Christ and making Him known If we’re to have a proper understanding of people, we must have a proper understanding of Christ. Those who have any church experience whatsoever are likely aware of evangelism. Whether we engage in evangelism or not is a different story. Even still, if a preacher encourages us to share the gospel with people, we probably know what he means. But here’s the thing: unless there’s a right understanding of who Christ is, evangelism won’t happen. If we Isaiah don’t know who Christ Pauley is, how are we supposed Contributing to make Him known? columnist In 2 Corinthians 5:1617, the apostle Paul reveals the importance of understanding who Christ is. “From now on, therefore, we regard no one according to the ﬂesh. Even though we once regarded Christ according to the ﬂesh, we regard him thus no longer. Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come” (ESV). Paul shares with the Corinthians how he once regarded people in the ﬂesh. In other words, he didn’t see the spiritual need people had beyond the surface. What’s more? He once regarded Christ in the ﬂesh. As one commentator notes, “Paul had looked for a temporal reigning, not a spiritual Messiah.” But now that Paul has a proper view of Christ, he has a proper view of people. After all, those in Christ are a new creation. This leads Paul to highlight the importance of evangelism. Last week, we saw Paul’s plea to the Corinthians. He was urgently calling the Corinthians to a right relationship with God. And now, this mission fueled by hope is speciﬁed even more in verses 18-19 as Paul begins to describe just what this ministry is. He writes, “All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave us the ministry of reconciliation; that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation” (ESV). As followers of Christ, we are called to the ministry of reconciliation. But what does this mean? Well, we’re called to bring people back to God through the gospel. As we share our lives and message with one another, God uses us to restore people back to Himself. But Paul doesn’t stop there. He goes on to emphasize just how urgent this call to reconciliation is. He writes, “Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us. We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God. Working together with him, then, we appeal to you not to receive See CROSS | 8 �Ohio Valley Publishing Friday, November 13, 2020 5 Meigs County Church Directory Fellowship Apostolic Church of Jesus Christ Apostolic Van Zandt and Ward Road.

We are ambassadors on Christ’s behalf. We are His representatives, living as citizens of another country. And as we “walk by faith, not by sight” (5:7), “we make it our aim to please him” (5:9). And part of our pleasing Him is sharing the gospel with those who don’t know Him. This is the Christ who became sin for us, so that “… we might become the righteousness of God” (5:21). This leads Paul into the early part of chapter 6 as he further emphasizes the urgency of this ministry. He says, “… we appeal to you not to receive the grace of God in vain” (6:1). And as he quotes Isaiah 49:8, he shares how today is the day of salvation. Now is the “favorable time” (6:2). Because this ministry we have to make Christ known is urgent. I hope this study through 2 Corinthians 5 encourages us to recognize our heavenly home, our present aim, and our urgent ministry. But until we have a proper understanding of who Christ is, our greatest efforts are in vain. May you know Christ and make Him known as you continue your pilgrimage through this world.

Virus postponements hit SEC, Big Ten; 8 games across FBS NEW MANCHESTER, W.Va. — The goal is not to let it end like it started. The Point Pleasant football team gets a chance at redemption this Saturday afternoon when the 12th seeded Big Blacks travel to Hancock County to face ﬁfth seeded Oak Glen as part of a season opening rematch during the opening round of the Class AA playoffs. The Big Blacks (4-2) will be appearing in the program’s 17th postseason run, as well as their 12th playoff opener in the last 13 years after missing out on the postseason last fall. PPHS is a combined 11-16 alltime in the playoffs, but is also winless in all 11 of its previous playoff games on the road. Point Pleasant — which has won six straight ﬁrst round playoff games — opened the 2020 campaign with the Golden Bears (6-1) within the friendly conﬁnes of Ohio Valley Bank Track and Field, but OGHS stormed out to a 36-0 halftime lead and eventually cruised to a 36-13 decision. The Sept. 4 meeting was the ﬁrst-ever victory over the Big Blacks for Oak Glen on the gridiron. Point Pleasant owns a 3-1 edge in the alltime series, including a 66-40 win at OVB Field in the second round of the 2011 Class AA playoffs — the only prior postseason meeting between the two schools. After opening the playoffs with home games in each of their previous six appearances, the Big Blacks will be starting the postseason on the road for the ﬁrst time since going to Morgantown in 2012. The ﬁrst of a 4-year run in the Class AAA ranks, PPHS fell by a 49-28 count in that matchup. The Red and Black take a 3-game winning streak into this postseason run, which includes a 38-28 win over seventh ranked Keyser at the start of the streak. Both of Point’s losses also came against top-5 Class AA qualiﬁers. The Big Blacks enter See OPENER | 11 A weekend of reflection By Ralph D. Russo Associated Press The pandemic wrecked more plans across college football on Wednesday, with No. 12 Georgia at Missouri becoming the fourth game postponed in the Southeastern Conference alone and No. 3 Ohio State’s visit to Maryland canceled because of a coronavirus outbreak among the Terrapins. “This is certainly a week unlike any other,” SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey said. “I’ve repeatedly said (since March) that the circumstances around the virus will guide our decisions.” While the SEC will assess rescheduling options, there are no open dates built into the Big Ten’s nine-week schedule, and teams must play at least six games to qualify to play for the league championship. The Buckeyes are now down to seven games at most and No. 13 Wisconsin, which was favored to meet the Buckeyes in the league championship game, has already had two games canceled because of its own outbreak. “Obviously, we are disappointed at not being able to compete this week, but I am incredibly proud of our team and the way they have handled themselves throughout this entire pandemic,” Ohio State coach Ryan Day said. Among the three SEC games still on for this Saturday, Arkansas will visit No. 6 Florida without Razorbacks coach Sam Pittman after he tested positive for the virus. Pittman said he has had some body aches, but is otherwise doing OK. He is isolating in his guest house with his dog. “I’d be lying to you if I said I wasn’t somewhat depressed,” Pittman said. No. 24 Auburn at Mississippi State; No. 1 Alabama at LSU; and No. 5 Texas A&M at Tennessee were all called off earlier this week. Both the Tigers-Bulldogs and Aggies-Volunteers games have been rescheduled for Dec. 12. In all, eight games across major college football have been called off so far this week including Memphis at Navy, Air Force at Wyoming and Louisiana-Monroe at Arkansas State. Overall, 55 games involving FBS teams have been canceled or postponed since major college football leagues had their revised fall schedules in place on Aug. 26. The SEC has said it is considering using Dec. 19 as a make up date for teams that are not involved in the league championship game that day. Georgia and Missouri share no open dates the rest of the way, but could be made up on Dec. 19. With the Crimson Tide on track to play in the SEC title game, Alabama-LSU is in danger of not being played at all without some serious juggling of schedules. “We want to play Alabama. It’s a great rivalry for us,” LSU coach Ed Orgeron said, and added he no idea when it could be arranged. Sankey said at some point the SEC might have to prioritize making up games that could impact the championship race over those that don’t, but the conference is not at that point yet.

Edwards Stadium in Huntington, W.Va. This year’s 75 Game, which honors the 75 people killed in the 1970 plane crash, will mark the 50th anniversary as the Thundering Herd hosts Middle Tennessee State at noon Saturday. Marshall game special for players on 1970 crash anniversary By John Raby Associated Press HUNTINGTON, W.Va. — Born some three decades after the worst sports disaster in U.S. history, Grant Wells and his Marshall teammates are well schooled in the history, importance and the honor of wearing a jersey that has been passed down to them. No. 16 Marshall hosts Middle Tennessee on Saturday on the 50th anniversary of a plane crash that killed 75 people, including most of the Thundering Herd football team. “This is the most important game we play all year,” said Marshall coach Doc Holliday. “Not even close.” Wells, a redshirt freshman, grew up 50 miles away in Charleston and knows all about Marshall football’s past. Being the quarterback and the local kid that leads his offense in the crash’s silver anniversary game is emotional. “Oh man, I don’t know if I can put that into words,” Wells said. “I’ve grown around the story. I’ve learned about it since I could throw the ball. Representing the Herd, especially in this game on the 50th anniversary, it’s going to be surreal. I can tell you that this team is already looking forward to that game.” Marshall (6-0, 3-0 Conference USA) is trying to keep its focus as it marches toward a possible berth in the league championship game. But behind quarterback Asher O’Hara, Middle Tennessee (2-5, 2-3) beat the Thundering Herd at home last year. The 36 players who died in the crash will receive degrees from Marshall in their ﬁelds of study on Friday. Before Saturday’s game a remembrance to the 75 victims is set at the Memorial Fountain on the Huntington campus. Middle Tennessee is paying its respects, too. Blue Raiders wide receiver CJ Windham knows all about personal loss. His mother, Rena Windham, died of cancer in 2018. In the ﬁrst game after her death two days later, he caught a touchdown pass against Vanderbilt, looked up to the sky and blew her a kiss. The Marshall story “means a lot to me,” Windham said. “As a kid, I’ve seen the movie ‘We are Marshall’ quite a few times. I see what that means to that program and how signiﬁcant that was. Getting to play them on this particular date is special to me. I know it’s special to them. “Of course, we’re going to stay focused and try to do what we’ve set out there to go do.” Some other things to know about the Thundering Herd and Blue Raiders: DEFENSE FIRST Marshall has the nation’s third-best defense, giving up seven touchdowns all season and allowing 253 yards per game, including just 67 on the ground. The unit is averaging 3.5 sacks. “I’ve seen that they have a lot of experienced guys, a lot of guys with a lot of starts that have been in a lot of, I guess, big-time situations,” Windham said. “They understand the game.” NO ADVANTAGE Middle Tennessee has not played since Oct. 24, but not by its own choice. Charlotte’s COVID-19 issues forced last week’s game against the Blue Raiders to be called off. The postponement came a day before the game and kept Middle Tennessee from getting extra work for Marshall — or any other break. “We’ve had a good couple of weeks,” MTSU coach Rick Stockstill said. “It’s not an advantage, because we didn’t spend any extra time working on Marshall … but it is what it is. You can’t control it.” Middle Tennessee is 2-2 on the road, including a doubleovertime win at Rice three weeks ago. STOPPING KNOX Marshall’s veteran offensive line has allowed just ﬁve sacks all season while opening holes for running back Brenden Knox, who is going after his sixth straight 100-yard rushing game. The hard-running Knox “is not afraid to run behind his pads,” Middle Tennessee linebacker DQ Thomas said. “You don’t want to tackle a guy like that for four quarters. Putting it on him before he puts it on us, I think that would be a big thing.” HOME SWEET HOME Marshall has won 83% of its home games since its stadium opened in 1991. Only two other FBS schools have a better winning clip in their current stadiums: Alabama and Georgia Southern. �SPORTS Ohio Valley Publishing Friday, November 13, 2020 11 Cleveland’s Bieber, Cincinnati’s Bauer win Cy Young Awards By Jay Cohen family.

Bieber became the second player in Indians history to win the AL’s pitching Triple Crown, joining Hall of Famer Bob Feller in 1940. He also was the ﬁrst pitcher to lead the majors in all three categories since Johan Santana for Minnesota in 2006. Bauer went 5-4 with an NL-best 1.73 ERA in 11 starts, helping the Reds reach the playoffs for the ﬁrst time since 2013. Animated on the ﬁeld and outspoken off it, the 29-year-old right-hander struck out 100 in 73 innings and led the majors with two shutouts, a pair of seveninning performances on doubleheader days.

Orgeron said he expects most of his players in quarantine due to contact tracing back next week. Between injuries and COVID-19 issues, the Tigers were using punter Zach Von Rosenberg as the second-team quarterback in practice this week, Orgeron said. Texas A&M coach Jimbo Fisher said his team only had two positive cases as of Wednesday afternoon, but contact tracing had taken a toll. He said a couple of position groups were “greatly” impacted. Fisher said the weekend road trip to South Carolina, using a small locker room and taking a plane trip, led to the multiple players landing in quarantine after being exposed to the infected individuals. “We’ve got guys spread out all over but it’s amazing on those air planes how close 6 feet is,” said Fisher, who was uncertain whether the Aggies would have enough players back to be able to play Mississippi on Nov. 21. Sankey said the conference-wide positivity rate was under 1%. “Candidly, the numbers around contact tracing have emerged as one of our biggest challenges to playing. We don’t control those policies existing in the public-health realm,” Sankey said. Currently, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention deﬁnes a high-risk contact in need of a 14-day quarantine as an individual who has been exposed to an infected person for a total of 15 minutes. “The contact tracing has the potential to magnify even one positive test,” Sankey said. Crimson Tide coach Nick Saban said his team would practice Saturday to try to keep the rhythm of a normal week, despite now having consecutive Saturdays off with last week’s bye. He said players were given some time off to visit home, but it came with strict rules and a warning to be careful. “Everyone trusts their family. I trust my family,” Saban said. “But no one knows where Uncle Tommy has been.” Opener and turned down the Reds’ qualifying offer, but left the door open for a return. “I haven’t thought about free agency very much yet, to be honest,” said Bauer, known for some unusual and progressive training methods that have helped turn him into one of baseball’s best pitchers. “I have had a lot of stuff that I’ve been doing trying to get my offseason underway, trying to get better at baseball.” Darvish ﬁnished second in NL voting by the Baseball Writers’ Association of America. New York Mets ace Jacob deGrom was third, falling short in his bid for a third consecutive Cy Young Award. Bieber was the ﬁrst unanimous American League winner since Justin Verlander for the Detroit Tigers in 2011. It was the 10th time an AL pitcher was listed ﬁrst on every ballot.

The BBWAA will announce the MVPs on Thursday night. “Today’s a good day regardless,” Bieber said. “It just makes it that much better that we were able to take this thing home and that it was unanimous.” The 25-year-old Bieber, a former walk-on at UC Santa Barbara, was selected by Cleveland in the fourth round of the 2016 amateur draft. He made his major league debut in 2018 and went 11-5 with a 4.55 ERA. But he really started to show off his potential last year, winning the MVP award at the AllStar Game and ﬁnishing with 15 wins and a 3.28 ERA. Bieber gave Cleveland its ﬁfth Cy Young Award since CC Sabathia won in 2007. Cliff Lee won in 2008, and Corey Kluber took the prize in 2014 and 2017. Gaylord Perry in 1972 is the only other winner for the Tribe. “Jared has shown tremendous growth in his ﬁrst two seasons at Baylor, both on and off the court,” Baylor coach Scott Drew said. “He has always been a great teammate with an infectious personality and now that he’s an upperclassman, he’s taken on more of a leadership role.” The dynamic Dosunmu also took a look at the NBA before deciding to return, a huge boost for the No. 8 Illini. The 6-5 guard was the ﬁrst Illinois player in 20 years to lead the team in scoring as a freshman and sophomore. Dosunmu can do a little of everything on the court, averaging 16.6 points, 4.3 rebounds and 3.3 assists while shooting 48% from the ﬂoor last season. Cunningham arrived in Stillwater with plenty of hype as the highest-rated recruit in school history. The athletic 6-8 guard can play the point or ﬁll it up when he wants to, putting him at the top of numerous NBA draft boards for 2021. Cunningham dominated as a high schooler in Florida and is expected to have a similar impact in the Big 12 and beyond. Gonzaga was the AP preseason No. 1 for the ﬁrst time and Kispert’s decision to return was a big part of it. The 6-7 senior is a It’s the ﬁrst Cy Young Award for Bauer, who tied for sixth in the AL voting in 2018 after he went 12-6 with a 2.21 ERA for the Indians. He was traded to Cincinnati as part of a three-team deal at last year’s deadline that moved Yasiel Puig to Cleveland. Bauer struggled after he was acquired by the Reds, going 2-5 with a 6.39 ERA in 10 starts. He was hampered by a right ankle injury that affected him for much of the year. But he returned to form when this season ﬁnally started in July. Bauer allowed just two runs and eight hits in 26 1/3 innings over his ﬁrst four starts. He also closed out the season with a ﬂourish, recording a 1.29 ERA and 46 strikeouts in 35 innings over ﬁve September starts. “The biggest deal this year is I was just healthy,” he said. “I was able to go out there and compete, be on a routine.” superb 3-point shooter (44% last season) and a good slasher to the basket. He averaged 13.9 points and 4.0 rebounds on a deep team last season and will be a key cog on a team with Final Four aspirations. Martin started his career at Arizona State as the bouncyhaired energizer off the bench, lifting his team with pizazz and hard-nosed defense. The 6-foot guard has since developed into an unquestioned leader on a team loaded with talented guards. Martin averaged 19.1 points, 4.1 rebounds and 3.1 assists last season and his decision to bypass the NBA to stay for his senior season has expectations running high for the 18th-ranked Sun Devils. He is Arizona State’s second preseason AP All-American, with Ike Diogu in 2003-04.

West Virginia is much stronger on defense this season, holding opponents to a league-low 271 yards, including 109 on the ground. West Virginia also has a league-high nine interceptions and possesses two of the Big 12’s top tacklers in linebacker Tony Fields and cornerback Alonzo Addae — Jahmile’s cousin. They’re just not exactly sure what to expect this time out of Duggan. And Duggan’s teammates simply trust him no matter what he decides to do. “We know he can run if things aren’t going good in the passing game,” said TCU center Steve Avila. “We always have that option, and it’s expected from him.” TCU has won two straight after losing three of its ﬁrst four games. The teams have split their eight meetings as conference foes since both joined the Big 12 in 2012. �NEWS/WEATHER 12 Friday, November 13, 2020 Jury fourth degree, Tampering with Evidence, a felony of the third degree, and Obstructing Ofﬁcial Business, a misdemeanor of the second degree.
