Ohio Senate President Bill Han-is appointed State Senator Jimmy Stewart (R-Aibany) to serve on the Senate Energy & Public Utilities Committee for the remainder of the.,'l28th General Assembly. The move was part of several committee changes announced after the recent appointment of Shannon Jones to fill the Seventh Senate Di~trict seat left open by the passing of State Senator Bob Schuler earlier this summer. The appointment will !!ive Stewart a voice in the policy discussion about the future of eneq;y production in Ohio and 1ts impact on the accessibility, affordability and reliability of electricity service for Ohio consumers. "I would like to thank President Harris for the opportunity to serve on this important committee and be part of the ongoing discussion about Ohio's energy future and its impact on our economy. the environment and the health and financial \\ell-being of families ana businesses in Southeast Ohio and across the state,'' said Stewart. "I will work v. ith my colleagues on the panel and other interested parties to ensure that Ohio pursues an energy policy that not only encourages the research and development of wind. solar and other non-traditional energy sources. but also supports Ohio's coal industry and coal jobs by embracing clean coal technology and other innovative way~ to use our state's most abundant resource:· In addition to focusing on energy policy, the Energy & Public Utilities Committee also debates laws and regulations that directly affect pro' iders of gas. water, cable television and telecommunications' including telephone and broadband serv1ce.

Of particular concern are rodents. reptiles and raccoons - animals that don't get a lot of attention. but play an important role in forest wildlife diversity. Scientists say it is too early to know what kind of long-term damage the Station Fire wrought on the forest ecosystem. Chaparral generally is highly adapted to a fire-prone environment. But researchers are concerned that if chaparral burns. too often. invasive weeds and flammable grasses could crowd out native shrubs, transforming the landscape. "If we end up with these areas burnmg again 111 a couple of years for whatever reason, then )OU can end up actually changing native vegetation to exotic vegetation." said Travis Longcore, research associate professor of geography at the University of Southern California. Many ecosystems can bounce back from devastating fires 'as long as the blazes are not frequent. 'The reality is there have been fires in the past and there will be fires in the future. Unless you want to pave the mountain, we have to accept that fact," said Longcore. who is also the science director of the nonprofit Urban Wildlands Group. Jon Keeley, a research ecologist with the U.S. Geological Survey's Western Ecological Research Center, said burned areas should sprout without trouble since they haven't faced repeated fires. and recovery is likely to be very quick. "Next spring, assuming we get reasonable rain, most of those hills should be green with regrowth,'' Keeley said. He said the forest will also see an increased di,ersity of native plants since many seeds he dormant in the soil waiting for a fire to pass through in order to grow.

And the desperate h that hangs over eyerything and whispers that maybe. J maybe. tomorrow might be a tiny bit better. In the river valley where Pennsylvania, Ohio and West Virginia meet. the anticipation of change never really goes away. Because of that. it seems, people still are willing to give Burack Obama a chance as he maneuvers through the murkiness of a nation in transformation. "No one is feeling satisfied with the state of the country,'' Derek Duffee says from behind his coffee bar's counter in Pennsylwmia's Washington. "I don't know if what he's doing will work. but he's trying,'' says Miyoshi Braxton. an Obama fan smoking on a park bench oubide her downtown apartment building in Steubenville, Ohio. And this from antique dealer and Obama skeptic Bob Yocum in Wheeling, W.Va .. who is sticking with the president for now: "He's the only one we've got.'' In a country of deep divisions and idt::ological extremes. impressions of Obama around here fall somewhere in the middle. Ei~ht months into his presidency. he's not the hero who will fix all the problems. nor is he the villain who caused them. Instead. he is seen as a bridge that leads toward the country's next era - a guide into the new unknown. He inhertted two wars ¥nd a complicated recession and, while grappling with those. is trying to revamp the nation 's health care and energy policies as he tackles a slew of other ambitious agenda items. Complicating matters is public that both wantc:; him to stanch the bleeding but is also, as always. skittish abl true change. And he's is trying to do it all during a nati al transition that many fear could leave American dor nance in doubt. "He stepped into a time when there were probably the most problematic things going on." says Dan Moschetta, a 22-year-old recent college graduate from this southwestern Pennsylvania city, 260 miles west of the Washington where Obama lives. "If he could get to all the issues, I'd say he was Superman:· As Obama heads into an autumn filled with challenges as immense as the summer's, public opinion suggests both opportunity and political peril. Polls show people in the L:.S. are split over how he's performing. and that's echoed in the voices of more than three dozen people in this ail ing but resilient corridor. Here, three politically different state~ come together: Democratic-tilting Pennsylvania. GOP-leaning Wc:-.t Virginia and the perennial swing state of Ohio. Once the country's economic engine, the area self-identities strongly with hard work. family and patriotism. It's also a place that first felt the United States' producing economy shift toward a consumer economy when steel mills. glass factories and pottery barns that dotted the Ohio River shut down in ·the 1970s. victims of globalization's birthing pangs. The way people around here feel is notable. Thi~ is a relatively conservative area that. at any other time, could reasonably be expected to reject a Democrat out of hand. And like elsewhere in America. patience is not natural i. instant- atification society that tends to demand q results from its leaders and to view politics in black white. Why the middle ground. then? Does it hint at a new flexIbility? Or is it quintessential American optimism. tempered by the pragmatism of a country growing up? Are the nation's problems subverting knee-jerk politics? Or perhaps this is a reflection of Obama himself as he straddles issue after issue with a management style th<ft's both pragmatic and idealistic. but also leaves him open to cnticism that he's failing to lead. . Also perhaps this: Facing the possibility of American decline. people may simply be at a loss for what to do- and looking. as so often before. to their president to guide them. ''This is really a whole new chapter in the state of America. and there's nothing we can do but keep doing what we're doing and hope it gets better." says Phil Axworthy. 58, a software developer taking a coffee break in Pittsburgh's Market Square .

"Dude didn't do a lot of this mess,'' said Bill Marroulis. 53. a recently laid off security guard in Steubenville. But. he said, Obama may not solve all the problems while in office. "It may be the next president's time."

That said. Marx added: " He won." They express confusion about sending more troops to A1'ghanistan, they don't get'' hat Obama wants to do\\ ith health care and they worry he's taking on too much.

And in the purely political sense. the time for measurable judgment comes next fall with the congres~ional elections. the first real measure of a new pre~ident's standing.

Tuesday, September 8, 2009 InSide Washington: Labor board in gridlock BY SAM HANANEL ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER WASHINGTON Another Labor Day, another year of dysfunction in the agency that's supposed to protect workers from unfair labor practices and referee clashes between unions and management. The enduring stalemate at Labor the National Relations Board, the longest in its history. comes as evidence that elections don't always settle political tugs of war. Ten months after the election of a president and Congress from the same party, no end is in sight to the deadlock. Decisions are stalled on dozens of disputes that could set labor-management policies for decades to come. Can employers prohibit employers from using the company's e-mail system to send union-related messages? Where may union members distribute literature at work sites? What about organizing a union by simply signing cards instead of having a secret-ballot election? These matters and more are going nowhere because the board, since January 2008. has had one lonely Democrat, one lonely Republican and a political stalemate over three empty seats. "The only cases they are getting out are the pure vanilla cases, where it's abundantly clear the case should go one way," said packages of two or three nominees at once that include both Democrats and Republicans. That's meant to grease the process . Along with Becker, Obama wants to fill . other empty seats Mark Pierce. a Democra labor lawye-r. and Brian Hayes. a Republican who is the GOP's labor policy director on the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions committee. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce has criticized Becker for a~serting in a law review article that employers should have no legal role to play in whether their dnployees seek to organize a union. The chamber is also concerned that Becker could try to circumvent Congress on the volatile issue of whether it should be easier for workers to organize unions. Unions want lawmakers to pass the Employee Free Choice Act. which would let workers form unions by signing cards instead of voting by secret ballot. Unions say businesses often try to intimidate wo · ers in the days leading u an election. Business groups adamantly oppose the bill, saying it would let union leaders bully workers into signing up. The bill has stalled in Congress without the support of some Democrats. If it doesn't pass, some Republicans fear Becker could try to achieve the same result through, board action. .

Some are willing to include malpractice changes that appeal to conservatives. Obama will say which way he wants to go when he addresses a joint session of Congress on Wednesday night. Above all. the president wants to avoid failure. But an argument on the merits may fail to persuade lawmakers polarized by the town hall brawls of August. If nothing gets done. "it'b a disaster politically" for the Democrats. said Gerald Shea, the AFL-CIO's top health care policy expert. "Unfortunately, I think that's what's behind a lot of the Republican opposition." The action will speed up once Congress is back. The chairman of the Senate Fmance Committee, Sen. Max Baucus. says he's ready to march ahead. For months, Baucus. D-Mont.. has tried to reach a compromise within a small but influential group of senators from both parties. He faces a Sept. 15 deadline. and has signaled he 'II move with or without a deal. His committee .would be the last one to consider health care legislation before the full House and Senate take over. Deliberations in the Finance Committee are seen as a critical test because it rellects the composition of the Senate us a whole. In the House. Democratic leaders have indicated they will not schedule a vote until the end of September. Many House members don't want to stick their necks out if it looks like the Senate is hopelessly deadlocked. Still. once House Democrats decide to go forward, they should be able to pass· their bill. There won't be any guarantees in the Senate. where 60 votes are needed to pass legislation of any consequence. It doesn't look like Democrats have them right now. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev .. \Vill try to meld the Finance Committee's bill with legislation written by liberals on the Senate Health. Labor and Education. Pensions Committee before he takes something to the full Senate. Debate could last for weeks. with hundreds of amendments. Reid's most important decision will be whether to use a maneuver that allows the Senate to pass the financing elements of the bill with just a simple majority. Even so. he'd probably still need 60 votes to pass companion legislation with other essential elements such as how people would buy their health insurance. The shortcut strategy could backfire politically. Sen. Ben Nelson. D-Neb .. said Sunday his constituents are already concerned that Congress is rushing things. "If we went to some sort of a parliamentary shortcut. I think they would be even more alarmed than they are right now," Nelson told CNN's "State of the Union.'' Even if the legislation clt~ars every hurdle: it could be Christmas before it reaches Obama 's desk. Republicans say Congress should scrap what's been done so far and start over. without deadlines. "There don't seem to be any checks and balances on a runaway government in Washington. D.C.," said Sen. Lamar Alexander. R-Tenn. An inm1igration overhaul fell under its own weight during the last administration . • "health reform seems to doing the same." For all the disagreements. the core elements of the congressional bills are similar. They would set up a new purchasing pool to make it easier for individuals and small businesses to buy insurance. and offer government subsidies to make premiums more affordable. People would be required to get health coverage. through an employer. a government program. or on their own. Businesses that don't offer coverage would have to contribute in some way. The changes are complicated, and it would take the better part of a decade to phase them all in. The cost - offset by spending cuts and tax increases - is about $1 trillion over 10 years. As the scope of the legislation has gotten clearer. more voters seem to be hav. second thoughts. Pol~s sh that support fpr action this year plunged over the summer. from 61 percent in June to 53 percent in August. according to a Kaiser Family Foundation surYe}. Obama is hoping he can tum that around. If he doesn't, lawmakers worried about getting re-elected next year will have another option to consider: Should they pull the plug? �.

Then in 1985, 25 beds were converted to a .skilled nursing facilit) with 10 more beds being added the following year. The hospital was closed in the summer of 2000. The facility. then owned by Holzer Consolidated Health Abtems, with a new clinic on an adjacent lot, operated it W an acute care facility with an emergency room for a time. Then that was discontinued and the skilled nursing wing eventually closed. But the memories live on and those who so enjoyed working there meet every September to reflect and reminisce. That's what they'll be doing when they gather at the Mulberry Community Center on Mulberry Avenue in Pomeroy from I to 4 p.m. on Sept. 19.

The violence was concentrated in fonner Sunni insurgent strongholds that have seen a sharp decline in violence after local tribal leaders turned against al-Qaida in Iraq. Despite the relative calm. a series of deadly bombings have raised concerns about a resurgence of violence as the U.S. military scales back its presence, With a full withdrawal planned by the end of 20 II.

In Baghdad on Monday, a borrib destroyed a police car, killing one officer and two civilians and wounding eight, police said. Another bomb killed a driver as he approached a military checkpoint in the Sadr City district. Prime Minister Nouri alMaliki has sought to reassure Iraqis that the U.S.trained security forces are capable of taking over from American troops who have withdrawn from the country's cities. Recent bombings, especially an Aug. 19 attack on government ministries in Baghdad that killed about 100 people, have shaken people's confidence at a crucial time, just months before Iraqis go to the polls in January to choose a new parliament. Iraq's rampant corruption has also become a key election issue. Corruption watchdog Transparency International rated Iraq in 2008 as the third most cor- rupt country in the world after Somalia and Myanmar. The Iraqi government had long played down the issue before announcing a crackdown this year. A judge said Monday that it issued two new arrest warrants. A senior Finance Ministry official in charge of the auditing depattment is accused of wasting public funds, judge Arif Shahin said. Authorities are also seeking Iraq's ambassador to Jordan. He is accused of sheltering a fellow Saddam Hussein-era diplomat who is wanted in the 1994 assassination of an Iraqi dissident in Beirut, said another judge at the oourt. Ali al-Rubaie. The ambassador, Saad alHiyyani, denied the accusation and said he had not been notified of any warrant against him. The Shiite dissident, Talib al-Suhail, was killed by Iraqi intelligence agents during the rule of Saddam 's Sunni regime. Iraq's post- war Shiite-dominated government began pursuing the case in 2005, al-Rubaie said. The· suspect who Iraq's government believes is •. Jordan. Awad Fakhri, v. charge d'affaires of the Iraqt Embassy in Beirut at the time of the assassination. He also worked as head of the Arab affairs department at the Foreign Ministry in Baghdad until retiring in 2005. The ambassador to Jordan questioned why the government did not try to arrest him then. He added that Fakhri was most likely in Syria. not Jordan. ''The charges (against me) are false:' Ambassador aiHiyyani said. "They are malicious and bear hidden motives to tarnish my public image." In northern Iraq, two children playing with a hand grenade they found in a stream were killed when it exploded, said police in the city of Kirkuk. 2009 Pontiac G5 GT Coupe TRI-STATE AUCTION MANIA COMING SOON! 2.2L 4 cpl engine, 4 sp. anto) remote start, AAf/FM ~~~~~~~~~~~ Sponsored by: Heanland Publications ;'\ewspapers in • Ohio • West Virginia and Kentucky including U:()e ~alltpolts DatiP ~rtbune tl:()e .t)otnt f:)lrasant 1\rgistrr The Daily Sentinel For more Information call the advertising departments at (740) 446-2342- The Gallipolis Dally Tribune (304) 675-1333- The Point Pleasant Register (740) The Dally Sentinel - -- 0- ' ••• • • - • .< ; R\£ta~li Wal/u,,e $549 ~· J.

The threeyear backup to the nowdeparted White also held onto the ball too long in the pocket and struggled at times to move the Mountaineers down the field against a Liberty defense that returned just four starters. "'It went OK,'' Brown said. "We did a lot of great things but we also need to work on the little things. Instead of getting three we need to get seven. There were no major problems.

The win wasn't secured until Robert Sands intercepted Liberty's Tommy Beecher midway through the fourth quarter and West Virginia's Noel Devine. who had 17 carries for l J2 yards, scored two plays later on a 24-yard run for a 33-13 lead. West Virginia has other concerns. too, with East Carolina coming to Morgantown next Saturday. An offensive line that lost three longtime starters was unable to give Devine much room and at times broke down in its pass protection. West Virginia did nothing to improve its standing as one of the nation's worst in yards allowed on kickoffs. Two of Liberty's drives after kickoffs started in West territory. and Virginia Western Washington transfer Josh Lider boote~d one out of bounds. At least West Virginia temporarily solved its inability to move the ball in short- yardage situations. wvi.J converted six of 12 times on third down. including fullback Ryan Clarke's 2-yard TO run late in the first quarter. West Virginia offensive coordinator Jeff Mullen said Jarrett Brown ··showed leadership that he never had to do before. "We need continue to make sure that he stays patient in the pocket," Mullen said. ·•of course that starts with protection and a lot of that is not on h'im. He's got to see where there were a couple of instances today where he needed to get rid of the ball. But the thing that he's doing a great job of is completing passes and not turning the ball over. And that's something we're going to continue to preach.'' Beecher's first game at Liberty went much better than his last start - a fourinterception mess in South Carolina's 2008 season opener against North Carolina State. Beecher went 22-of-33 for 21 0 yards and engin~ered two first-half scoring drives, including a screen pass that Mike Brown turned into a 20-yard TD and tied the game at J0-10 early in • second quarter. Brown ished with ll catches for 157 yards. On the next series, Jarrett Brown scored from 22 yards out on a planned draw play on third down to put the Mountaineers ahead to stay. But West Virginia found the end zone only one more time the rest of the game. ··People think, 'oh. here comes a FCS school, but Mike Brown can play.'' said West Virginia coach Bill Stewart. ·'You know their quarterback played for Steve Spurrier (at South Carolina). So I tell you. they can play." Bitancurt kicked field goals of 38, 35. 45 and 36 yards and the Mountaineers outgained Libetty 438-299. ··1 told our defense last night that if they take the ball 98 yards. and you hold them .to a field goal. that's a good drive," said Liberty co. Danny Rocco. QB Pike leads Cincinnati past Scarlet Knights, 47-15 PISCATAWAY, N.J. (AP) - Cincinnati coach Brian Kelly unleashed his highspeed. no-huddle offense and quarterback Tony Pike pushed it into overdrive. Pike threw for a careerhigh 362 yards and three touchdowns, and the defending Big East champion Bearcats hurried past Rutgers 47-15 on Monday. "'The pace was absolutely crucial today.'' said Kelly. who began his third season with the Bearcats as a rising star in the business. "You knew what Rutgers was going to do and that is controt the clock. So we knew it w~s absolutely crucial to push the ball down the court." Courted by Washington and Tennessee last season. Kelly might not be long for the Queen City and his team showed ~·hy in the season opener. The Bearcats pushed it Oklahoma-style and put up 510 yards and 45 pomts in the first three quarters. They also got a jump on the conference race by improving to 4:0 against Rutgers since joining the league. With the luxury of a .. returning starter at quarterback for the first time at UC, Kelly doesn't have to hold anything back offensively. "I didn't do a lot of heavy lifting today from the sidelines," he said. "All those kids out there really made this thing work." The Scarlet Knights, looking to christen their newly expanded stadium and extend a seven-game winning streak. couldn't keep up. Instead. it looked like the bad ol' days at Rutgers. It was the most points allowed by the Scarlet Knights since Virginia Tech put up 48 in October 2003. Domenic Natale threw three first-ha lf interceptions for the Scarlet Knights and the senior left open the possibil ity that his first career start could be his last. Highly touted freshman Tom Savage played the second half and finished 15 of 23 for 135 yards with a touchdown pass. TUESDAY TELEVISION GUIDE Martin, Rodriguez happ~ with UM ANN ARBOR. Mich. (AP) - Michigan athletic director Bill Martin was one of the happiest people at the Big House as coach Rich Rodriguez and the Wolverines had an opening day win in hand by halftime. It was a welcome relief after a miserable week for both Rodriguez and his boss. A newspaper report about possible NCAA rule violations was deemed serious enough that the school launched an investigation into the hours football players were training and practicing. Adding to the "'drama·· as Rodriguez describes it, a pair of reports followed about his involvement in a troubled real estate investment that included a booster banned at Clemson. Martin, meanwhile. was hoping as much as anyone on campus that Rodriguez has been following the rules and that his football team is ready to start winning. With Rodriguez's spread offense clicking and Michigan leading Western Michigan 31-0 at half on Saturday. Martin aclmowledged to a couple reporters he felt a sense of relief. ''I'm smi!Jng,'' Martin said with a sly grin. Martin hired Rodriguez , after a search that had some hoping LSU's Les Miles would be the man to replace the retiring Lloyd Carr and the quest almost ended with Rutgers' Greg Schiano. Martin hired Rodriguez away from West Virginia in a messy divorce that cost the school $2.5 million plus legal fees and the coach $1.5 million. Rodriguez lost a schoolrecord nine games in his debut season on the sideline at the Big House with a depleted offense and a disinterested defense. Martin. meanwhile, was overseeing the final stages of a $226 million stadium renovation that includes lots of luxury boxes and club seats only well-heeled fans and corporations can afford. Despite the Motor City\ economy. the school has commitments on 70-pet'l:ent of those suites that cost as much as $85,000 per s~son. Winning is good for everybody at Michigan: Martin, Rodriguez and university ofticials trying to fill about20 more boxes and a slew of club seats before the 20 I0 opener. A win over No. 23 Notre Dame on Saturday at Michigan Stadium would boost spirits even more~ ..

Frazer completed II of 24 passes for 127 yards and threw three interceptions. He threw a 4-yard touchdown to Anthony Davis and a 35yard score to Brad Kanuch. Todman 's 5-yard rushing touchdown on the tirst play of the fourth quarter gave Connecticut a 23-7 lead. He rushed for 157 yards on 25 attempts, including a 53-yard run. Andre Dixon added his own I 00 yard5 on 19 attempts to the Huskies rushing attack. Ohio only managed 61 rushing yards led by Boo Jackson wtth 28. Thea Scott and Jackson each threw touchdown passes for Ohio. Jackson hit Ta;:lor Price on a 44-yard stnke and Scott connected with Riley Dunlop on an Ityard score. Connecticut never trailed in the game and continues to dominate against the MidAmerican Conference, moving to 15-1 all time against conference opponents. Buckeyes "It was a bit of a wakeup call," Buckeyes linebacker Austin Spitler said. Ohio State has been a national player throughout Jim Tressel's eight-plus lears in charge, winning the national championship in 2002. But since 2006, the Buckeyes have made a habtt of losing big games in the national spotlight. They lost lopsided games in the national title games after the 2006 and 2007 seasons, then last year were embarrassed by USC, lost a close game to Penn State at home and fell on a late TD to No. 3 Texas in the Fiesta Bowl. The Buckeyes are well aware that much of America considers them a good team from a bad conference that can't play at the same level as Florida, USC and other top-tier squads. They'll likely fall in the next weekly Associated Press Top 25 on Tuesday. ' • from Page Bl to escape with a victory. "When you have a big game you try not to overlook the team before, but it's real hard because in the back of your mind you're thinking about next week," Dobbs said. The Buckeyes swore they weren't looking ahead to USC. Maybe they weren't. Maybe Navy was that good. Or maybe the Buckeyes do have that much to work on. . The offensive line didn't protect and the running game was mundane. The defensive line got blown out by Navy's smaller front wall. Pryor had an average game. And the Midshipmen looked as if they had more stamina and more speed down the stretch. Kahne from PageBl turn two. He managed to control his slide, avoid the inside wall and get back to the pits for another set of tires, but the mishap knocked him all the way back to 19th. He was on the verge of getting back into the top 10 when a broken axle during a pit stop forced him back to the garage for repairs. With all chances of wmning gone, he had to go back to the garage one more time to fix a balky gear box. Edwards hobbled out to his car on crutches after breaking his right foot playing frisbee a few days earlier. His pedal foot didn't give him any problem, but hls night was ruined by a hole in his radiator. He had to go to the garage for lengthy repairs and wound up just behind Johnson in 37th. Edwards won this race a year ago, one of nine victories on his way to a secondplace finish in the season standings. He's yet to win this year but maybe that's for the best - there's no way he can do his customary victory celebration, a bac~ip off his No. 99 car Roundup from Page Bl by Circleville High School. There were a combined 489 competitors and 48 teams that took part in the event, which included 226 girls and 263 boys in two divisions. There were also 22 girls teams and 26 boys teams. The Blue Angels placed fourth overall with a team score of 154, finishing behind only DeSales (94), Sheridan ( 131) and Liberty Union (140). Chillicothe, with 214 points, rounded out the top five. Peyton Adkins led GAHS with a time of 19:33,2, f~­ ishing » w Mathew$' of' rty t1 with a winning. mark of 19:16.3. Mckenna Warner (21 :43.9) was next for the Angels in 19th, followed by with his ailing foot. Kurt Busch, who won the spring race in Atlanta with a dominating run, didn't come close to matching that performance. He struggled with an ill-handling car most of the night before finally slamming the wall coming out of turn four on lap 244 of 325. His night was done and he ended up 38th. The crash also took out local favorite Reed Sorenson. "We had a loose race car, and it kept getting loose," Kurt Busch said. "We just couldn't get a handle on it. I got sideways and Reed hit us. I'm sure he had no place to go. It was a real hard hit. That's a bummer." At least he st~ll has a spot in the Chase. Younger brother Kyle was hoping to get back in the mix with a strong run, but finishing 13th actually knocked him back one spot. Now, the pressure will really be on heading to Richmond quite a chance from a year ago when he was the leader going to the playoff. Pole-sitter Martin Truex ran strong early on, leading three times for a race-high 68 laps. He was nowhere to be found at the end, struggling home in 26th. Tuesday, September 8, 2009 Rockies rally for 4-3 win over Cincinnati DENVER (AP) - The Colorado Rockies escaped \\ ith a win on Ian Stewart's tiebreaking homer in the eighth inning. Now, they're hoping to avoid a bigger loss - Troy Tulowitzki. The NL wild card-leading Rockies rallied for a 4-3 win over the Cincinnati Reds on Monday despite losing their smooth-fielding shortstop. Tulowitzki left the game in the seventh with a strained lower back after hitting a game-tying single. He's listed as day-to-day. ''I'm not sure what happened. 1 took a swing and I felt a little something and felt like I was a little locked up," Tulowitzki said. ''I'm a Httle sore right now and tight. Maybe I'll wake up and feel good to go (Tuesday)." Tulowitzki tried to convince manager Jim Tracy that he could remain in the game. He nearly succeeded too, until Tracy saw him jog down the first-base line to test his back and favoring it. Tracy decided to insert Omar Quintanilla, not wanting to take a risk. "You can't lose this guy for an extended period of time," Tracy said. The Rockies ended Cincinnati's seven-game winning streak and maintained their two-game cushion over the San Francisco Giants, who kept pace by beating San Diego on Monday. Stewart delivered the bi~ blow, hitting a solo shot off reliever Carlos Fisher ( 1-1 ) for his 23rd homer of the season. Fisher. who was called up Monday from Single-A Sarasota, said he threw a two-seam fastball that stayed over the heart of the plate. ''I let the team down," Fisher said. The homer was a measure of revenge for Stewart, who struck out earlier this season against Fisher in Cincinnati. "I put a pretty good swing on it," Stewart said. That was the first time all day. Stewart struck out in three previous trips to the plate. Rafael Betancourt (2-1) earned the win with a perfect eighth, while Franklin Morales, filling in for the injured Huston Street, pitched out of a jam to pick up his fourth save in five chance,. Morales, however, certainly didn't make things easy The Reds had two on and none out in the ninth, but Morales got Jonny Gomes to fly out and then Scott Rolen was thrown out on the back end of a double-steal attempt. The Rockies were ready for just such a scenario. "I don't want to sit in my dugout and be surprised," Tracy ~aid. "I want to be prepared. We had a plan of attack." That blueprint included throwing behind the lead runncr, not going after the speedy Brandon Phillips, who wa" trying to steal third. Still, it took a sensational scoop by Clint Barmes to pluck Chris !annetta's throw from the dirt and tag out Rolen. '1'here wasn't a <;teal "ign," Reds manager Baker said. ''(Phillips) has a green light. (Rolen) had ·a big lead and when he saw Brandon run ... they made a good play. That was a key play because we had Morales on the ropes." Yet Morales wiggled out of trouble, striking out Darnell McDonald to end the game. Ubaldo Jimenez went six innings in the no-decision, marking the 25th straight start he's gone at least six. His three runs allowed, though, were the most since July 27 against the Mets in New York. After the game, t. flamethrower said tweaked his left hamstring running· the bases and that it affected his fastball. So Jimenez went with a steady diet of breaking pitches. Jimenez said he doesn't expect to miss his next start. "No, no. no,'' he said. "I'll ge_t better.'' The Rockies were thrown out twice at horne plate Monday. once when Brad Hawpe tried to score from third on a pitch that got away from catcher Corky Miller and again when Carlos Gonzale7 tried to score from first on Todd Helton's RBI single. No matter, Ste"Vart's blast made up for the baserunning mistakes. ''It's obviously a great game to win, a great game to come back to win," Tracy said.
