Meigs Performing
Arts Center fund
opens at FAO
Staff Report

POMEROY — After
more than 100 years
without a dedicated
facility to showcase and
celebrate the performing arts, a group of passionate Meigs County
citizens want to create
a place to highlight the
cultural arts in their
community.
In an effort to combat generations of
limited access to the
arts, Meigs County
will create an incubator for local creativity
though the creation of
the Meigs Performing
Arts Center Fund at the
Foundation for Appalachian Ohio (FAO) to
generate the resources
for a dedicated performing arts facility in
Meigs County.
The Meigs Performing Arts Center
(MPAC) Fund will be
used to support a wide
range of arts and culture activities in Meigs
County. Right now,
the main focus is the
development of a stateof-the-art theater and
community center for

“Our committee

hard to put together a

Supreme Court
allows Ohio, other
state voter purges
WASHINGTON (AP) — States can target people who haven’t cast ballots in a while in efforts to
purge their voting rolls, the Supreme Court ruled
Monday in a case that has drawn wide attention
amid stark partisan divisions and the approach of
the 2018 elections.
By a 5-4 vote that split the conservative and
liberal justices, the court rejected arguments in a
case from Ohio that the practice violates a federal
law intended to increase the ranks of registered
voters. A handful of other states also use voters’
inactivity to trigger processes that could lead to
their removal from the voting rolls.
Justice Samuel Alito said for the court that Ohio
is complying with the 1993 National Voter Registration Act. He was joined by his four conservative
colleagues in an opinion that drew praise from
Republican ofﬁcials and conservative scholars.
The four liberal justices dissented, and civil
rights groups and some Democrats warned that
more Republican-led states could enact voter
purges similar to Ohio’s.
Ohio is of particular interest nationally because
it is one of the larger swing states in the country

OHIO VALLEY HISTORY

A look at early
doctors of the
Bend Area
By Chris Rizer
Special to Times-Sentinel

Lona Fetty Wamsley during a birthday with family members, including great-granddaughter Rylei Wamsley, granddaughter Jackie
Wamsley, great-grandson Caiden Wamsley and grandson Logan Wamsley.

Gallia woman celebrates 108th birthday

Staff Report

GALLIPOLIS — Lona
Fetty Wamsley turned
108 years-old Saturday,
having lived a lifetime
among historic changes
and with the love of her
family.
She was born June 9,
1910 in Point Pleasant,
W.Va. and was raised by
her sister, Eva Murphy,
after their mother’s
death. She lived through
the days of the Great
Depression and “Herbert
Hoover’s days,” while
witnessing shanty boats
going up and down the
Ohio River as makeshift
homes and businesses.
She credits Jesus and

God with having “been
good to her” throughout
her life and says Christian
hymns are her favorite
kind of music. Red tomatoes have been a regular
feature among her meals
and she has credited
them in part also with her
long life.
According to information previously shared
with Ohio Valley Publishing, she married Cecil
Ray Wamsley in May
1937 and shared one
child, Ken Wamsley, with
him. In 1936, Lona battled a gall bladder attack
during the famous ﬂood
of the year. While they
couldn’t reach medical
care through the water-

ﬁlled roads, her husband
brought her to a doctor
on the Ohio River over
a stubborn and rough
waters.
She and Cecil helped
with search and recovery
of victims following the
collapse of the Silver
Bridge while he was
employed by Bob Bosworth with the O-Kan
Harbour Barge Company
as a deckhand.
She was a homemaker
before her husband died
in 1971, after which,
she became a cook on
a riverboat. She would
leave Ken in the care of
Clarence Stutler when
working.
Lona has four grand-

daughters, a grandson
and two great-grandchildren, Caiden and Rylei.
Her son and his wife
Patricia continue to live
in Gallia and visit. Wamsley family history says its
members previously lived
in West Virginia before
making their homes in
Delaware, Ohio, and Gallipolis. Lona has lived in
Gallipolis since moving to
the area.
“Well, trust in the good
Lord,” Wamsley has said,
if others wanted to live to
her age. “That’s the main
thing. Trust in the name
of Jesus.”
Lona currently resides
at Holzer Assisted Living
in Gallipolis.

Sharing motivation for weight loss
TUPPERS PLAINS
— TOPS OH#2013,
Tuppers Plains met at
the St Paul’s United
Methodist Church with
leader, Pat Snedden, calling the meeting to order.
All members said
the TOPS (Take off
Pounds Sensibly) and
KOPS pledges. The
KOPS (Keep off Pounds
Sensibly) members
were given applause
for accomplishment
of weight goal maintenance. With hand over
heart, everyone recited
the Pledge of Allegiance
in unison.
TOPS songs, “TOPS
Welcome Song” and
“When the KOPS Come
Marching In” were led
by Cindy Hyde. Pat
asked for roll call. Roberta Henderson, weight
recorder called each
member’s name. A total
of 13 members reported
loss, gain or maintenance of weight. The
group shared appreciation for weight recorders, Roberta Henderson

and May Frost.
As part of the positive reinforcement each
member rings a bell after
weigh-in if they have had
a weight loss. With each
bell ringing, members
applaud.
Best loser for the week
was Mary Bush. She
received the weekly best
loser fruit basket and a
certiﬁcate for her accomplishment.
The monthly best
loser award was a tie
between Mary Bush and
Mary Beth Morrison.
Each received a certiﬁcate.
Three birthdays were
recognized at this meeting: Mary Bush, May
Frost and Mary Beth
Morrison. The Chapter
sang Happy Birthday to
each of them.
The Secretary’s report
was given by Glenda
Hunt. The treasurer’s
report was given by Judy
Morgan.
Members reported
their information for
the “Card Game”. This

is where each member
is given a regular deck
card for losing weight
(or maintaining, if a
KOPS), staying for the
support meeting, keeping a food chart, exercising and for encouraging
another member. Card
points were scored. The
contest will end June 11
with the member who
has the highest points
being named winner.
The group’s other longstanding game is “The
Marble Game.” The
Marble Game is expected to end in the next few
weeks. Mary Rankin won
the 50/50 drawing.
Group therapy for the
meeting was initiated by
Pat asking the best losers, Mary Bush and Mary
Beth Morrison their
recipe for success this
month. They both shared
motivating reasons for
starting the weight loss
journey; to avoid knee
surgery, to feel better, to
live longer and to be able
to enjoy time with family.
They also talked about

their method for weight
loss: counting calories,
drinking more water,
exercising, using the Fitness Pal app, not drinking soda and attending
the weekly TOPS therapy group meetings.
Members also had
a tasting of “Veggie
Straws” as a healthy
snack idea. The nutritional content was discussed as well as portion
size.
To end on a positive
note and because laughter is truly the best medicine Cindy Hyde shared
a funny story.
The meeting was
then adjourned with the
“Helping Hand” circle.
For more information
about TOPS or about
joining the chapter’s
support meetings call
Leader, Pat Snedden
at 740-541-9696. The
weekly meetings are on
Monday at 6 p.m. and
last about an hour.

There’s never been
a shortage of capable
doctors in Mason
County, and in this
article, I want to tell
you about perhaps
some of the most
important people from
our early history. The
antebellum physician
was a busy person.
They were primarily
tasked with preventing
any number of diseases that could easily
become epidemics.
Cholera, the ﬂu, smallpox, typhoid fever, and
other illnesses that
are now preventable
thanks to vaccines
could wipe out a small
town if left untreated.
However, the doctor
was also the pharmacist, coroner, and wellrespected citizen that
was usually called on
for advice. They had to
be ready to rush across
town at a moment’s
notice, no matter
the time or weather.
Often, their patients
were also friends and
neighbors, and doctors
were welcomed into
the home like family.
Indeed, the town doctor was one of the few
people in town that
the town couldn’t do
without.
Among the early
doctors in the Bend
Area were Drs. Thomas Barton of Syracuse,
Archibald Crary of
Hartford, James Meeks
of Hartford, C.W.
Petty of Hartford, and
Aquilla Knight of West
Columbia. That is by
no means a complete
list, just those that
make frequent appearances in our records.
Dr. Barton in particular was one of the
ﬁrst regular doctors at
this end of the county.
He was from Meigs
County, where he
practiced at Pageville,
Chester, and Syracuse.
It was while practicing in Syracuse, in
1860, that he began
taking patients in New
Haven and Hartford.
This was less than ﬁve
years after both towns
were founded. He left
for a short time to
serve in the 4th West
Virginia Infantry as a
surgeon but returned
following the end of
the Civil War to continue his practice until
his retirement in the
1890s.
At roughly the same
time, Drs. Crary and
Petty began their practices in Hartford. They
were not the ﬁrst, that
was James Meeks, but
they were the most
well-known. Dr. Petty
in particular treated
patients in Hartford
from the 1880s until
the 1950s. He was one
of those doctors who
had seen and treated
everything. A quick
search of death certiﬁcates bearing his
signature reveal causes
of death such as the
deadly diseases mentioned above, industrial accidents at the
local salt furnaces, and
murder.
Dr. Meeks, as was
mentioned before,
was the ﬁrst doctor in
Hartford. He came to
the area after study-

NAMES

Area were Drs. Thomas

Hartford, James
Meeks of Hartford,
C.W. Petty of Hartford,
and Aquilla Knight of
West Columbia.

ing under Dr. Knight
of West Columbia. I
don’t have much on
Knight’s early history,
but we do know that
he studied medicine
in Cincinnati before
coming back to the
Bend Area. We also
know that upon the
outbreak of the Civil
War, Dr. Knight voted
for secession, was ran
out of town, and joined
the Confederate Army.
He served in the 36th
Virginia Infantry under
Mason County’s own
General McCausland.
After the war, as far as
I can tell, he was welcomed back with open
arms and went back to
practicing medicine.
He continued seeing patients in West
Columbia, Clifton, and
Mason until his death
in 1897.
Now, I’ve told you a
bit about some of our
early doctors and their
work in their respective towns. However,
there’s one event that
had them all working
together. It’s one I’ve
wrote about before,
though from a different
perspective.
In 1892, a young
man named Peter
Roseberry of Mason
came down with a sickness that was originally diagnosed by Pomeroy doctors as either
chickenpox or measles.
Of course, his friends
all came to see him,
and they too became
sick. This went on for
nearly a week as the
doctors from Pomeroy
continued to insist that
it was only a case of
the measles. That all
changed when Peter
died, and doctors
from the Bend Area
examined his body.
Drs. Crary, Knight,
and Petty, among others, agreed that it was
none other than the
dreaded smallpox and
ordered an immediate
quarantine. For weeks,
the Bend Area was cut
off from the outside
world, but the quarantine worked. By the
end of everything, 5
people were dead, but
they had stopped the
disease from spreading
and killing more.
Next week, I’ll be
writing about some of
the early doctors from
Point Pleasant and
other regions of the
county.
Information from
Barton’s autobiography and the writings
of Mildred Chapman Gibbs. The next
meeting of the Mason
County Historical and
Preservation Society
will be at 6 p.m., Monday, June 11 at the
Mason County Library
in Point Pleasant.
Chris Rizer is president of the
Mason County Historical and
Preservation Society.

when these characters would
have been active and involved

Rio’s Criner named NFCA All-American
By Randy Payton
For Ohio Valley Publishing

University of Rio Grande shortstop Michaela Criner was named to the 2018 National Fastpitch
Coaches Association (NFCA) All-America First Team. Criner, the RSC Player of the Year and a first
team NAIA All-America selection, led the country with a .534 batting average. hit 13 home runs
and also drove in 49 runs for the 35-13 RedStorm.

Bowyer wins
rain-shortened
race at Michigan
BROOKLYN, Mich.
(AP) — After 120
laps and two stages,
the race could now be
ofﬁcial. Any driver in
the lead might conceivably win if rain
intervened.
Clint Bowyer had
ﬁnished second to
teammate Kevin Harvick in the second
stage, and both came
to pit road. Bowyer
took only two tires —
and felt that decision
by crew chief Mike
Bugarewicz ultimately
won him the race.
“It was a gamble
on his part,” Bowyer
said. “It was uncharacteristic for him.
That’s part of growing
and blossoming as a
crew chief and being
one of the elite.”
After that quick pit
stop, Bowyer had outside position on Harvick on the ensuing
restart and was able
to take the lead. Rain
halted the race not
long after that, giving
Bowyer his second
NASCAR Cup Series
win of the year.
Harvick ﬁnished
second, and pole
winner Kurt Busch
ﬁnished third, completing a sweep of the
top three for StewartHaas Racing. Kyle
Busch was fourth, the
lone Toyota near the
top in a race dominated by Ford. Four
more Fords — Paul
Menard, Brad Keselowski, Joey Logano
and Ryan Blaney —
rounded out the top
eight.
Blaney won the ﬁrst
stage and Harvick
took the second. On
the pit stop moments
later, Bugarewicz
made the decision
to go with only two
tires, ﬁguring other
leaders would do
the same, since bad
weather could arrive
shortly and track
position was important.
“When we were
coming on pit road,
I was 100 percent
sure two tires was
the right call. We got
about three- quarters
of the way down pit
road, I was about 70
percent sure,” Bugare-

wicz said. “When he
slid into the pit box, I
was about 50 percent
sure. By then, we
were leaving. It was
too late.
“Clint asked, ‘Are
we the only one with
two?’ ‘Yeah, we’re the
only one with two.’”
Bowyer didn’t have
to race much longer
in his No. 14 car. He
had the lead when
Ricky Stenhouse Jr.
went into the wall,
bringing out a caution. The rain put a
stop to the race after
133 of the planned
200 laps on the 2-mile
track at Michigan
International Speedway.
“As the leader, you
don’t want to be that
guy that’s calling in
every single second
saying, ‘It’s pouring!
It’s a monsoon!’”
Bowyer said. “That
doesn’t hold any
weight, but it really
was. I was just hoping somebody else
was saying the same
thing.”
The race was
delayed by rain at
the start. Three Joe
Gibbs Racing drivers
— Kyle Busch, Denny
Hamlin and Erik
Jones — had to start
at the back because
of inspection failures
related to the splitter. Busch made it
back into the top ﬁve,
Hamlin ﬁnished 12th
and Jones was 15th.
Harvick led a racehigh 49 laps and
secured his 11th topﬁve ﬁnish in 15 races
this season. Bowyer
led only eight laps.
This was his 10th
career victory and
ﬁrst at Michigan.
“I’ve been on
both sides of this,”
said Harvick, who
was denied another
chance to overtake
Bowyer by the weather. “If you’re going to
have racing luck work
against you, you want
to at least stay on
your own team.”
Kyle Busch kept
the points lead, by 75
over Harvick.
The Cup Series
takes next weekend
off before resuming
June 24 at Sonoma.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. —
University of Rio Grande
shortstop Michaela
Criner has been named
to the 2018 National Fastpitch Coaches Association
(NFCA) All-America First
Team.
Criner, who earlier in
the week was named to
the NFCA’s All-Region
VI First Team, was the
offensive leader of the
RedStorm’s 35-13 team
which won both the River
States Conference regular season and tournament championships en
route to a fourth straight
appearance in the NAIA

National Tournament.
Criner, the RSC Player
of the Year and a ﬁrst
team NAIA All-America
selection, led the country
with a .534 batting average. She also hit 13 home
runs and drove in 49
runs, while tallying nine
doubles, ﬁve triples, 58
runs scored and a .868
slugging percentage.
Criner, a sophomore
from Bremen, Ohio and
a second team honoree
last year, also hit safely in
46 of Rio’s 48 games this
season.
Twenty-six different
schools were represented
on the 16-play ﬁrst team
and 16-player second
team.

Oklahoma City University and Georgia Gwinnett College had three
honorees each among the
ﬁrst and second teams,
while national champion
University of Science &amp;
Arts of Oklahoma and
Freed-Hardeman (Tenn.)
University had two recipients each.
Oklahoma City’s Jaci
Smith was selected Diamond Catcher of the Year
for the second consecutive season, while Niki
Cook of Georgia Gwinnett was named the New
Balance/NFCA Golden
Shoe Award recipient.

DeLauter wins 2018 WVSWA Lowery Award
By Rick Kozlowski
For Ohio Valley Publishing

HEDGESVILLE, W.Va.
— High school baseball
players regularly double
up as pitchers and regular position players on
the ﬁeld.
Limited roster numbers force many players
into multiple- or doubleposition players.
Sometimes, it works
out like a double play:
they serve two positions
well. Other times, one
position might rank
heavily over the other.
Nobody delivered
quite the double play
during the recently completed baseball season
that Chase DeLauter of
Hedgesville did.
He batted .500 as an
everyday player and won
10 games as a pitcher.
It’s no wonder why
the junior can’t decide
whether he’d like to concentrate on pitching or
playing the outﬁeld in
college.
So DeLauter plans to
do both: his personal
double play.
And he found the perfect school to allow him
to pitch and play a position, so DeLauter committed to James Madison University during
the fall of his 11th-grade
school year.
Before college can
happen, though, DeLauter has another season
at Hedgesville ahead of
him and is being named
today as the winner of
the John Lowery Award
as the state’s baseball
player of the year, as
chosen by the West
Virginia Sports Writers
Association.
He’s the third player
from Hedgesville to win
the award, joining Baltimore Orioles draftee
Jamie Conner and West
Virginia signee Daniel
Heleine in that capacity.
Both were positionbased players, unlike
DeLauter — Conner at
shortstop and Daniel
Heleine at ﬁrst base.
They also won their honors as seniors; DeLauter
is a junior.
Baseball became so
much easier for DeLauter when he kind of
decided to forget about
statistics, return to his
baseball roots as a very
young ballplayer and
just go out and play.
He scrapped a statistic
app on his cell phone,
almost in homage to the
days of tee-ball.
Then he teed off.

Hedgesville junior Chase DeLauter winds up for a pitch during a regular season game in Hedgesville,
W.Va.

DeLauter had no idea
what his season would
turn out to be.
“I didn’t know my
stats until the end of the
season,” DeLauter said.
“I had a feeling I was
doing well. Teammates
were telling me they
were impressive.”
Both on the pitching
rubber and in the outﬁeld.
Beside winning 10
games pitching against
one defeat, his 64 strikesouts led the Eastern
Panhandle. He fashioned
a 1.95 earned run average.
“His best position is
as a baseball player,”
Hedgesville coach Aaron
Whitford said.
In other words,
DeLauter’s play stands
out regardless of where
he plays.
“It’s our pleasure to
watch him play,” Whitford said. “Every time he
was on the mound, we
knew we got a chance
to win; every time he’s
at the plate, there’s a
double coming.
“He’s a special player.”
More than half of
DeLauter’s 50 hits went
for extra bases. He pro-

duced 22 doubles, two
triples and four home
runs.
“He had as many doubles as singles,” Whitford said, marveling at
that fact.
Still, matching singles
and doubles were not as
strange of a set of numbers as are 5-4 and 6-3.
DeLauter entered
Hedgesville as a 5-foot4 freshman; two years
later, he stands at 6-3.
“(Former) coach
(Dirk) Webb said he
was smooth,” Whitford
said. “He had a lot
of movement on his
pitches. That hasn’t
changed. His velocity
has changed.
“But we knew we had
something when he
came in.”
DeLauter’s fastball
ranges between 82 and
85 mph.
“I talked with the
pitching coach at JMU,
and he said by the time
he’s done, he’ll be high80s, lower-90s when he
gets on their weight program,” Whitford said.
Such a development
could change DeLauter’s
double-duty in time.
DeLauter, who likes

the adrenaline rush of
being on the mound and
starting every sequence
with his pitch, is expected to play some in the
outﬁeld and serve as a
relief pitcher when he
arrives at James Madison two years from now.
“We just hope he
stays humble,” Whitford
said. “That’s what we’ve
talked about. One thing
we’re working on is the
mental side of the game,
that it’s OK to fail and
you just get ready for
the next at-bat. As good
as he is, that’s the part
of his game we’re working on.
“But he’s a special kid
on and off the ﬁeld, a
special student.”
Others considered
for the Lowery Award
include Chase Swain of
Ravenswood, Brayden
Lesher of Bridgeport,
Madison Jeffrey of
Cabell Midland and Jake
Carr of St. Albans.
It belongs to DeLauter after he paired
spectacular hitting and
pitching numbers.

CLEVELAND (AP)
— Maybe it was poetic
LeBron James had a
supporting cast on his
injured right hand.
He was missing one
in the NBA Finals.
For the second time
in a career still ascending after 15 years,
James was on the wrong
side of a sweep as the
Golden State Warriors,
a team with no apparent weaknesses and
as many as four of the
league’s 10 best players
on its roster, transformed into a dynasty
in Cleveland late Friday.
After what may have
been his ﬁnal game with
the Cavaliers, James
revealed he hurt himself
in a ﬁt of frustration following a Game 1 overtime loss.
He displayed a soft
cast on his hand during
his postgame news conference and then rounded up his children and
some of their friends,
and along with his wife,
and the usual support
group of handlers and
security personnel,
drove home to Akron.
His next stop is
unknown.
Another suspenseful
summer of “Where will
LeBron go next?” is off
and running.
In the next few weeks,
James is expected to
decline his $35.6 million contract option for
next season with the
Cavaliers and become
an unrestricted free

agent like he was in
2010 and 2014. Then
the fun starts — well,
ofﬁcially and legally
under NBA rules — and
teams can begin courting King James to join
them.
At the moment the
list of suitors is limited,
but it could grow before
July as teams position
themselves to acquire
one of the game’s most
transcendent forces.
There are obvious
potential landing spots,
but James, who averaged 34 points, 10
assists and 8.5 rebounds
against the Warriors,
made it clear that any
team coveting him better be prepared to win
— everything.
He’s still into hanging
banners.
“I still want to be in
championship mode,”
the 33-year-old said
following his eighth
straight NBA Finals
appearance. “I think I’ve
shown this year why I
will still continue to be
in championship mode.”
Although James may
have dropped to 3-6
in the ﬁnals, it hasn’t
diminished his pursuit
of winning a fourth title
or slaying this Golden
State goliath, a monster of a team he never
imagined getting in his
way when he made his
Ohio homecoming after
playing four years in
Miami.
So, who has a legitimate shot at getting

him?
The Philadelphia
76ers can entice James
with young stars Joel
Embiid and Ben Simmons, salary-cap space
to accommodate him
and other pieces, and
the luxury to stay in the
Eastern Conference to
avoid meeting up with
the Warriors until the
Larry O’Brien Trophy is
up for grabs.
The Lakers’ sales
pitch will include their
current ﬂexibility to
sign another maximum
contract player —
maybe Paul George or
Kawhi Leonard — and
Hollywood’s celebrityﬁlled hills. James
already owns two homes
and a ﬁlm production
company in Los Angeles, where the star could
become a supernova.
Don’t rule out the
Houston Rockets, who
pushed Golden State to
a Game 7 in the postseason. In presumed
MVP James Harden;
Chris Paul, one of
James’ closest friends;
and bent-on-overthrowing-the-Warriors general
manager Daryl Morey,
the Rockets have the
building blocks to
assemble an uber-team.
In the end, James may
decide home is still the
sweetest spot.
The Cavaliers,
though, have a lot of
work to do to convince
him he should hang
around. The team’s
decision to trade All-

Star guard Kyrie Irving
last summer to Boston
sparked a sequence of
events that led to a midseason overhaul, soured
James and sent him
into the playoffs with a
group he carried as far
as humanly possible.
Cleveland can offer
James more money — a
ﬁve-year, $209 million
contract — than anyone else, but the larger
issue is what it can do
to improve a roster
that’s currently short
on title-winning performance. The Cavs have
the No. 8 overall pick
in this month’s draft
as an asset to perhaps
package with All-Star
forward Kevin Love,
who could ﬁnally be
moved after being the
subject of trade rumors
for years.
And there’s also
the delicate matter of
James’ rocky relationship with team owner
Dan Gilbert. The two
have co-existed purely
on business terms since
patching things up after
Gilbert eviscerated
James when he bolted
for Miami. It’s unclear if
they can move forward
together.
On a podcast during
the Finals, Gilbert said
he views James as much
more than a player.
“Legally, he may be
working for our organization, but that’s not
really the case,” Gilbert
said. “He’s more of your
partner, really.”

Johnson reclaims world’s top spot with win
MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) —
Dustin Johnson is back in his spot
as the world’s top-ranked golfer
thanks to a dominant victory
capped by an absolutely amazing
hole-out for eagle.
“What a cool way to end the
day,” Johnson said.
Johnson shot a 4-under 66 on
Sunday making the St. Jude Classic his second PGA Tour victory
this year and 18th of his career

to take back the No. 1 ranking he
held for 64 straight weeks before
falling to No. 2 behind Justin
Thomas a month ago . Johnson
won the event for the second
time, ﬁnishing with the eagle,
three birdies and a bogey for a
19-under 261 total.
“It means a lot,” Johnson said
of reclaiming the No. 1 ranking.
“It was a long way to get there,
and I held it for a long time and

obviously JT took it from me for
a little while. It was nice to ﬁnish
like that and get it back.”
Andrew Putnam started the
ﬁnal round with a share of the
lead for the ﬁrst time in his
career. He shot 72 and ﬁnished at
13 under.
“I feel like I steadied the ship a
little bit after a rough start,” said
Putnam, who secured his card for
the year with his best ﬁnish yet.

With 11th French, Nadal not obsessed with Federer’s 20 Slams
PARIS (AP) — Rafael
Nadal’s 11th French Open title
raised his Grand Slam trophy
count to 17, three away from
the men’s record held by Roger
Federer.
That doesn’t necessarily
mean Nadal is ﬁxated on catching his rival.
“Of course I would love to
have 20, like Roger, in the
future — or even more,” Nadal
said Sunday evening after beating Dominic Thiem 6-4, 6-3,
6-2 in the ﬁnal at Roland Gar-

ros, “but being honest, (it’s)
something that is not in my
mind.”
He added that it’s not an
“obsession.”
“Let me enjoy this title,”
Nadal said. “I can’t be always
thinking of more. Of course,
I have ambition. Of course,
I have passion for what I am
doing. But I never have been
crazy about all this kind of
stuff. No, you can’t be frustrated always if somebody has
more money than you, if some-

body have a bigger house than
you, if somebody have more
Grand Slams than you. You
can’t live with that feeling, no?”
Nadal’s uncle, Toni, who used
to also be his coach, attended
Sunday’s match and was asked
afterward whether Rafael can
pull even with Federer.
“I want to think that is possible,” Toni said. “But I know
(that) maybe in one month,
Federer will win again Wimbledon.”
Federer, of course, sat out

the French Open to rest and
prepare for the grass-court
season. He did the same a year
ago, and then went on to claim
his record eighth championship
at the All England Club, where
play begins July 2.
The only man with more
titles at a single major is Nadal
in Paris. He is now 86-2 at the
French Open — and, by the
looks of things, as good as ever
at the place.
Here are other things we
learned at the 2018 French

Open:
Halep can win the big one
After losing her ﬁrst three
Grand Slam ﬁnals, Simona
Halep added major championship No. 1 to her No. 1 ranking by coming back to defeat
Sloane Stephens in three
sets. Halep kept insisting she
needed to do it, and could do it
— and she was correct. “Now
she can relax, go out there, let
her game go,” said her coach,
Darren Cahill.

Triple Crown
winner Justify
will race again

John Minchillo | AP

Cincinnati Reds’ Billy Hamilton, center, beats the throw against St. Louis Cardinals first baseman Matt Carpenter, right, after advancing
to third on a wild pitch by starter Carlos Martinez in the fourth inning Sunday in Cincinnati.

Reds end 13-game losing skid vs Cards
CINCINNATI (AP)
— Legs, glove and bat
— center ﬁelder Billy
Hamilton used them all
to almost single-handedly stop the Cincinnati
Reds’ historic losing
streak to the St. Louis
Cardinals.
Hamilton made a
bunch of key defensive
plays and the Reds
ended their 13-game
skid against St. Louis,
beating the Cardinals
6-3 Sunday.
Hamilton threw out
two runners, then made
outstanding catches
against the wall in
the eighth and ninth
innings. He also tripled
and scored twice.
“It’s all about me
catching the balls if I get
a chance to,” Hamilton
said. “Like I tell the
pitchers, if it’s anywhere
inside the park, if I can
get to it, I’m going to
make an effort to get to
it.”
The Cardinals’ overall
winning streak against
Cincinnati was their longest since the 1930-1931
seasons. The Reds had
lost 11 straight home
games to St. Louis.
“Honestly, the losing
streak to the Cardinals
was the last thing on my
mind,” Reds manager
Jim Riggleman said. “It

was all about today.”
Scooter Gennett drove
in two runs and the
Reds capitalized on the
Cardinals’ season-high
11 walks.
“Any win is always
good for us,” Hamilton
said. “We’ve been struggling up and down this
year. For us to get this
win, it gets some conﬁdence back in us. I feel
it’s a big win.”
The Cardinals piled
up 10 hits in ﬁve-plus
innings against Anthony
DeSclafani (1-1), who
was making his second
start since Sept. 28,
2016.
Hamilton threw out
Jose Martinez trying to
stretch a single into a
double to end the ﬁrst
inning. Martinez originally was ruled safe, but
the call was overturned
after a replay review.
Hamilton also threw
out pitcher Carlos Martinez trying to score from
ﬁrst on Matt Carpenter’s
single to end the fourth.
Hamilton tried for a diving catch, knocked the
ball away, but recovered
to throw home.
Amir Garrett allowed
an unearned run in
the sixth and Michael
Lorenzen pitched a perfect seventh before Jared
Hughes pitched the

eighth and ninth for his
fourth save.
“Billy made some
insane plays,” Hughes
said. “I gave him the
game ball and a big hug.
It was unbelievable. I’m
so happy he’s on my
team.”.
The Reds scored ﬁve
runs on just four hits
in 3 2/3 innings against
Martinez (3-3), who was
making his second start
since coming off the disabled list with a strained
back muscle. He issued a
season-high seven walks,
one short of tying his
career high, while hitting a batter and uncorking a wild pitch on ball
four that allowed Hamilton to go from ﬁrst to
third. Martinez has 12
walks in 7 2/3 innings
over his last two starts.
“I couldn’t ﬁnd the
strike zone with my
breaking ball or my cutter,” Martinez said. “I
was missing a lot. It was
a little bit frustrating. I
was really close. I never
lost my focus. I was trying to compete.”
Reds RHP Sal Romano
(3-7) makes his ﬁrst
career appearance
against the Royals on
Tuesday at Kansas City.
Ball magnets
Carlos Martinez went

into the game with a
league-leading nine hit
batsmen and reached
double ﬁgures by grazing
Eugenio Suarez in the
third.
Busy man
The Cardinals got a
gift run when RF Scott
Schebler’s throw on a
short ﬂyout skipped off
C Tucker Barnhart’s
glove and the 6-foot-5
Garrett, a former college
basketball player at St.
John’s who was backing up the play, couldn’t
make a leaping stab. The
ball went into the Cardinals’ dugout and out of
play, but Garrett jumped
down the dugout steps in
pursuit. Garrett picked
up an assist and putout
during a rundown on the
next play.
Outside the (strike) box
Cardinals pitchers combined to walk 11 batters,
including Joey Votto four
times for the sixth time in
his career. The 11 walks
were Cincinnati’s season
high.
Backwards line
St. Louis outhit Cincinnati 11-5 in the loss
— Cincinnati’s seventh
consecutive game in
which the loser outhit the
winner.

Finals MVP Kevin Durant gets the last word
CLEVELAND (AP)
— Kevin Durant had a
simple message for his
critics: “Thanks.”
Durant’s move to the
Golden State Warriors,
booed by many around
the NBA, has unquestionably paid off for both
the player and his team.
Two years, two NBA
championships, two NBA
Finals MVPs and almost
certainly a new contract
in the next few weeks
after he and the Warriors
decide on the best way to
proceed.
He is often a man of
few words, but Durant let
his thoughts be known
Friday night after the
Warriors won their second consecutive title by
ﬁnishing off a sweep of
the Cleveland Cavaliers.
There was a rare openness to Durant in his
postgame remarks as he
let his detractors know
that whatever they said
when he left Oklahoma
City for Golden State
didn’t mean much then
and means even less now.
“Former players and
players now that got a lot
to say about what I did,
they know how I play,”
Durant said, his newest Finals MVP trophy
standing just to his left.
“They know exactly what
I bring. They know. They
know. They understand
when they get on the

court with me or if they
check up with me, they
know what it is. So I kind
of try to just stand on
that. But I know what I
bring to the game.”
Here’s what he brings
to the Warriors: 26.4
points per game in this
regular season, 29 points
per game in the playoffs,
a 43-point explosion in
Game 3 that will go into
NBA Finals lore and a
triple-double in the series
clincher to cap it all off.
But the criticism —
which came from both
current and former players when he joined the
Warriors to form a superteam two summers ago
— probably won’t stop,
either.
Perhaps a coincidence,
Durant’s former Oklahoma City teammate
Russell Westbrook posted
a video of himself singing
along with an Ice Cube
rap on Saturday morning — the message of the
track being that someone
had lost his or her edge.
“I saw it comin’; that’s
why I went solo,” Cube
rapped, as Westbrook
mouthed the words. (Not
long afterward, amid
speculation that was
directed to Durant, Westbrook added another post
that said, “Stop reaching.”)
Not everyone has a
negative thought on

Durant and his choices.
Cleveland star LeBron
James, who denied
Durant a title when
Miami beat Oklahoma
City in 2012, raves about
Durant’s game.
“You knew he was built
for greatness from the
time that he was drafted,” James said.
The greatness can’t be
questioned now. And if
Durant going to Golden
State hasn’t been great
for league-wide parity, it
has quite obviously been
great for the Warriors.
They don’t really care
about much else.
“K.D.’s been amazing
these last two years,
especially in the ﬁnals,
and so deserving of backto-back ﬁnals MVPs,”
Warriors guard Stephen
Curry said. “I’m going
to be his biggest fan in
there with what he’s able
to do. I think the biggest
thing we appreciate in
the locker room is, again,
what everybody brings to
the table and we kind of
unlock the greatness out
of each other.”
When it was all over
Friday night, there was
both an arrogance and
a humility to Durant —
both understandable.
The 29-year-old is on
top of the basketball
world, rich beyond his
wildest expectations,
with rings for both hands

now and a hope that his
game is only going to
keep getting better.
Even in that moment,
though, he remembered
his roots.
Seat Pleasant, Maryland, is a little town just
outside of Washington.
It’s mostly black, mostly
impoverished. There’s a
lot of crime. There aren’t
a lot of roads out of Seat
Pleasant, unless you’re
6-foot-11 with an endless
wingspan and an indefensible jump shot that’s
as smooth as the golden
basketball that sits atop
the Larry O’Brien Trophy.
“I just feel indebted
to the game,” Durant
said. “I feel like it saved
my life. It changed my
life. It took me out of
an environment that I
didn’t think I’d ever be
out of, living in Maryland
my whole life. I thought
I was going to live in
Maryland my whole
life. But to travel the
world and meet different
people, and go to different arenas and different
cities and countries
around the world, I’m
just forever grateful for
this opportunity.”
That’s why he feels
vindication, overcoming
that.
Disproving doubters,
disproving critics, that’s
just a bonus.

NEW YORK (AP) — Triple Crown winner Justify will get a well-deserved break and then race
again this year, although no date or location has
been targeted yet after the colt came out of his
Belmont Stakes victory in good condition.
Elliott Walden of WinStar Farm said Sunday
the multi-owner group that controls Justify wants
to share the horse with the public by racing him.
A plan will be formulated once the chestnut colt
recovers from a compressed schedule that saw
him win six races over 111 days since his debut on
Feb. 18.
“Our focus was on each race as they came up,”
Walden said after unveiling Justify’s Triple Crown
banner inside Belmont Park. “Now we can take a
deep breath and just see how the horse is.”
Justify is set to return to Churchill Downs in
Louisville, Kentucky, on Monday.
Next Saturday, Justify’s owners along with
trainer Bob Baffert and jockey Mike Smith will
receive their engraved Kentucky Derby trophies at
Churchill. It’s possible Justify could be paraded at
the track like American Pharoah after he won the
Triple Crown for Baffert in 2015.
“Today he looked fantastic,” Baffert said. “After
a week, it starts catching up with them.”
On June 17, Justify will travel to Baffert’s base
in Southern California to await his next move.
Among the possibilities: the $1 million Haskell
Invitational on July 29 at New Jersey’s Monmouth
Park, the $1 million Paciﬁc Classic at Del Mar on
Aug. 18 and the $1.25 million Travers at Saratoga
on Aug. 25.
Baffert can expect to hear from ofﬁcials at several tracks eager to lure racing’s newest superstar,
much like he did with American Pharaoh.
Chris Kay, president of the New York Racing
Association, joked that he would “hold Bode hostage until they make the decision,” referring to
Baffert’s 13-year-old son.
“We hope this entire group will be assembled
again in late August in Saratoga,” Kay said.
Baffert took American Pharoah to Saratoga in
August 2015 and the Triple Crown winner was
upset by Keen Ice in the Travers.
“Everybody thinks I’m so opposed to Saratoga,”
he said. “I’m not. I’ve had really good luck there.”
The season-ending Breeders’ Cup world championships are in Louisville on Nov. 2-3.
“It’s been the longest, quickest journey,” a
hoarse-sounding Baffert said as light rain fell outside Justify’s barn. “We were in the ofﬁce watching
the replay over and over. He’s just an unbelievable
horse. We’re just so proud of him. We thought he
was that kind of horse but they have to prove it.”
Justify won the Belmont on Saturday by 1¾
lengths over 24-1 shot Gronkowski after winning
the Kentucky Derby by 2½ lengths and the Preakness by a half-length. Justify became the ﬁrst colt
in 136 years to win the Derby after not racing as a
2-year-old.
“He ran a large number of races in a short
amount of time with no 2-year-old foundation,”
said Chad Brown, who trains Gronkowski. “This
horse overcame a lot. He was managed so well by
Bob and his staff. He’s a remarkable horse to run
in all three legs as well as he did.”
Wearing a white blanket advertising his status
as the sport’s 13th Triple Crown winner, Justify
walked laps inside the barn before coming outside to greet a slew of cameras. He pricked his
ears at the sound of the shutter clicks and when
Baffert led him closer, he playfully bit at one camera.
“Pharoah made so many people feel good,” Baffert said. “This horse, I’m sure there was millions
of people screaming at their TV wanting to see it
done. People love history being made in sports.”

Justify is led to the stable after winning the 150th running of
the Belmont Stakes horse race and Triple Crown on Saturday
in Elmont, N.Y.

Stanley Cup party
rolls on for first-time
champion Capitals
WASHINGTON (AP) — Stanley Cup champions just want to have fun.
They’re doing so right now.
The Washington Capitals took the Stanley Cup
through the MGM Grand and to a dance club on
the Las Vegas Strip. They took it to a popular bar
not far from their suburban practice facility. Then
they took it to Nationals Park, where they kept
hoisting it from a suite to the roars of the crowd.
Hockey decisions, their individual Cup days and
change lie ahead. This weekend is for celebrating.
“We’re getting days with the Cup right now,”
defenseman John Carlson said.
