IT WAS NEWS THEN

room driving instruction andeach have a poignant view onthe importance of their job.Bartz sums it up best.

As I see it, my job is three-

fold: Keep them out of themorgue. Keep them out of thehospital. Keep them out ofcourt, he said.

While on the road, eachinstructor teaches varyingdegrees of defensive drivingwith the goal of passing alongthe tools to keep everyone onthe road safe.

Reaver possess an uniquetraining technique calledSubliminal Training, whichis designed specifically toimprove defensive driving foran inexperienced driver andallows a student to developtheir subconscious of how toreact in a variety of situations.Reavers method has produced

at least one testimonialonestudent revealed that, As soonas I was in that situation, Ididnt even have to think. Itwas like a calm came over meand I knew exactly what to do.

During in-car instruction,Bartz explained that she takesthe first-time out student oncurvy county roads, comprisedof dirt and/or loose stones for 2to 2 1/2 hours. The remaining6 hours encompasses drivingon curvy roads with small hills,in areas with heavier trafficand on expressways. Studentspractice maneuverability eachtime, unless he/she aced it thefirst time.

I tell my students that the

car is just an extension of theclassroom, Reaver reasoned.There are many topics anddriving techniques that are stilltaught during the driving time.

Osting and Reaver share asimilar view of on-line driv-ers training programs recentlyapproved by the state. Theyfeel there is no continuitybetween the online trainingand the driving time, no class-room interaction, no instructor

insights and no clarification ofdiscrepancies between actualOhio law and a generic driverseducation book.

Completion of a driver edu-cation course requires a studentattend a minimum of 24 hoursof classroom training and suc-cessfully pass the final examby obtaining a score of 75 per-cent or higher. Once the class-room training is completedthen the student must satisfac-torily complete a minimum of8 hours driving with a state cer-tified driving instructor. Oncethe student has successfullycompleted the driver educa-tion course, they are provideda Certificate of Completion.

Each instructor has experi-enced unnerving events whileout on the rode with a student.Just this past January, Bartzand her student were involved

in a rollover.Thanks to Divine interven-

tion, first of all, and the factthat my young driver had beenpaying attention as to what todo in a skid, we both walkedaway, Bartz commended her

pupil.As with all jobs, there areaspects of driver training thatare very appealing and somethat are not so appealing.Ostings favorite part of the jobis being with young people,keeping up with the cultureand talking about educationalgoals. Bartz thinks the cool-est thing is when one of heryoung drivers points out illegalor unsafe actions of other driv-ers. A strong indicator they arepaying attention to the instruc-tions they have received fromparents and in the classroom.

I love working withthis age group on any level,because I am still just a big kid

at heart, she added. I have nointention of ever totally grow-ing up!

Reaver enjoys teaching hisstudents car maintenance andemergency scenarios; howto check the oil, identify andexplain all fluid reservoirs,proper use of jumper cablesand how to change a tire. Heinsists that students practicechanging a tire (with paren-tal supervision) on the vehiclethat they will be driving, whichreduces potential problemsexperienced in the drivewayrather than along the side of adark highway.

In contrast, Reaverexplained the least enjoyable

aspect of training is wheninclement weather limits theamount of time students wantto be outside the car learninghow to change a tire.

Borges tells the paper that

a 2007 federal tax lien for$354,262 and the $98,397 instate tax liens stem from thesale of his $575,000 home beingimproperly reported as income.

Medicaid expansion backersrally at Ohio Capitol

By ANN SANNERThe Associated Press

COLUMBUS Susan Bennett cant gettreatment for her skin cancer because shesuninsured, unemployed and no doctor willsee her.

Standing in the rain on the steps of theOhio Statehouse, she asked state lawmakerson Thursday to extend Medicaid coverage, somore low-income Ohioans like herself couldget the medical care they need.

I want them to think about the lives theycould save, and I would like for them tochoose us the people over politics, saidthe 52-year-old Bennett, of Columbus.

Bennetts words were greeted with cheersfrom an estimated 2,500 demonstrators whogripped umbrellas and signs in support ofMedicaid expansion at Thursdays rally on theCapitol lawn. The event follows a decision byOhio House Republicans to strip the expan-sion plan from the budget.

Republican House leaders said uncertaintyin Washington over rules for the programcaused them to drop the expansion, which isbacked by GOP Gov. John Kasich.

States can opt out of an expanded Medicaidprogram under the new federal law. If thestate chooses to go forward with expansion,roughly 366,000 Ohioans would be eligiblefor health coverage, beginning in 2014. Andthe state would see $13 billion from the fed-eral government over the next seven years tocover those newly eligible.

Kasich in February proposed going for-ward with expansion, contending it was a wayfor the state to recapture Ohio taxpayers fed-eral money to provide medical care for thosewho were most vulnerable.

But many Republican lawmakers are averseto Democratic President Barack Obamas

law and resistant to expanding government

programs. They have cited concerns aboutincreasing the national debt and fears that themoney from Washington could be cut off.

Health care providers, union workers, busi-ness owners and groups representing the poorand disabled assembled outside the Capitolto urge lawmakers to include the Medicaidexpansion in the state budget proposal.

The House continues to hold hearings onthe $61.4 billion, two-year state budget thisweek. Additional changes to the proposalcould come next week before representativesvote on it. It would then go to the Senate forreview.

We cannot give up, Bob Spada, boardpresident of the National Alliance on MentalIllness of Ohio, told the crowd. We cannotgive in. We will continue to fight for what isright and just.

Chris Littleton, president of Ohio Rising,has urged supporters of his tea-party linkedgroup to continue to stand against theMedicaid expansion.

Littleton told reporters he attendedThursdays rally to hear the perspectives ofthe other side.

Still, he said, I cannot say this stronglyenough: There is not a set pot of money forOhio at the federal level. It doesnt exist.Theyre only going to be able to give moneyby further indebting our kids.

The Medicaid expansion is one of the keycomponents of the federal Affordable CareAct. Of the nearly 30 million people expectedto gain insurance coverage under the law,about half would get it from the expansion.

The law is using health insurance exchang-es to allow higher-income people to buy healthplans. But without the Medicaid expansion, agroup of people would likely go uncovered.With the expansion, an adult without chil-dren earning up to $15,415 can be added to

Medicaid.

Police take items from site of womans remainsBy DAN SEWELL

The Associated Press

CINCINNATI Authorities turned their focusThursday to determininghow a 21-year-old southwestOhio woman died, followingthe discovery of her skeletalremains in Indiana 20 monthsafter she went missing.

Its basically like a brandnew investigation, saidIndiana State Police Sgt.Noel Houze.

Indiana police investiga-tors took numerous itemsfrom the site where KatelynMarkhams remains werefound for study and possi-ble testing, Houze said. Hesaid the creek area wherethe remains were found isused by some as a dumpingground, so its too soon to

say whether any of the itemsare significant to the investi-gation.

They collected a lot ofstuff, he said, declining todescribe the items but addingthat they could turn out to betrash.

Indiana police andFairfield, Ohio, police havea joint investigation in thecase and suspect foul play.Markham was reported miss-ing Aug. 14, 2011, from herhome in suburban Cincinnatijust days before her 22ndbirthday. Her remains werefound Sunday, some 25 mileswest of her Fairfield home,and identified Wednesdaywith the aid of dental records.

Markhams father, DavidMarkham, addressed a crowdof supporters Thursday eve-ning at Fairfield West Baptist

Church.Although we are glad

to have Katelyn home, wealways had the hope to beable to see her again, he said,according to the HamiltonJournalNews.

We have had hope thatshe was going to come homeall along, and we believedvery strongly in that, saidKaryn Winkler, the mother ofMarkhams fiance, accordingto the newspaper. Now weknow and we have therelief of knowing shesbeen with God this wholetime. But thats the only reliefwe have.

Surviving Easter 2013There must a law, deep in the cosmic

base code, that if parents dress their ninechildren in Easter white -- especiallywhen New England snow is melting -- atleast one will fall into the mud.

It was tough, said Simcha Fisher, de-scribing this Easters obstacle course, butwe survived all that and made it to Mass.

This was not an ordinary Mass, ofcourse. The Fishers -- with children rang-ing from 15 months to nearly 15 years --

were trying to get into the 11:15 a.m. riteson the day when their New Hampshire par-ish would be jammed with those known,in commentaries on modern church life,as Christmas-and-Easter-Only Catholics(CEOs), Poinsettia and Lily Catholics oreven Two-Timers.

In a kind of Easter miracle, the Fishersfound adequate real estate in a pew. Thechurch was, of course, packed, notedFisher in a telephone interview. The fam-ily in front of us was dressed to the ninesand they seemed to be trying to break theworld record for the consumption of gumduring Mass.

Fisher knows that this narration soundswhiny. After all, this year she approached

the most important day on the Christiancalendar even more aware than normal ofthe tensions between Christmas-and-Eas-

ter-Only worshippers and the faithful who

attend week after week. As Holy Weekcame to a close, the National CatholicRegister columnist had committed her-self, in print, to being more hopeful andwelcoming this Easter.

Thats nice, but what are churchgo-ing Catholics supposed to do when facedwith CEOs chattering during Mass liketheyre in a football stadium, Fisher asks,or turning the Resurrection of our Lordinto a photo op, turning what should bethe most joyous holy days into an occa-sion of sin for faithful Catholics?

Its one thing to promise to be moreunderstanding, she noted. Its somethingelse to struggle with the reality of legionsof visitors.

I really am glad that theyre there,wrote Fisher. Its got to be better thannever going to Mass, and I do believe that

the Holy Spirit could easily use that op-portunity to send a powerful word, a lin-gering image, a stray idea into the mind orheart of a fallen-away Catholic, and a ca-sual visit that was made just out of habit,or to please someones grandma, might bethe rst step to coming back home to thefaith. And yeah, theyre not being rever-ent. Neither am I, by going through themotions while grumbling in my heart.

But I know my limits. I know Im not

going to suddenly turn into Mother Te-resa, especially if I show up 40 minutesearly and STILL have to spend the wholeMass on my poor tired feet, trying to keepnine kids docile and attentive when thestrangers who did get a seat are playingon their Game Boys. With the sound on.

At some point, this crush will affectwhether some believers -- even the mostfaithful -- are willing to endure the ten-sion in Easter pews, noted Joe Carter, se-nior editor at the Acton Institute. Recentnumbers from LifeWay Research indicat-ed that only 58 percent of self-identiedProtestants, 57 percent of Catholics and45 percent of nondenominational churchmembers said they were likely to attend

Easter services. Its legitimate to ask whyso many believers are staying away, he ar-gued.

Perhaps this trend can be explainedwith the help of a quip by baseball legendYogi Berra, said Carter. When asked whyhe no longer frequented a popular restau-rant, Berra said, Nobody goes there any-more. Its too crowded.

Fisher said that, before opting out ofEaster rites, frustrated parents could seekless popular services in the parish sched-ule, make strategic plans to arrive 45 min-utes early and have family pep talks with

their children about what to expect. Andthen there is the Hallmark trap, in whichworshippers are tempted to expect a pic-ture-perfect Easter packed with emotionalgoodies.

Now comes the hard part

for Garcia: Doing it againBy PAUL NEWBERRYThe Associated PressAUGUSTA, Ga. Sergio Garcia

had an enjoyable day on a course thatsnever been one of his favorites. Theshots were true. The putter was steady.The score was good enough for theMasters lead.

Now comes the hard part: holding ittogether for another three days.

Well see what happens,Garcia said, sounding a bit appre-hensive.

For the impetuous Spaniard,thats always been the conun-drum. How can a golfer of suchtalent have gone this long with-out winning a major title? Why

does he keep blowing it on golfsbiggest stages?

Well, here he is again, sharing thetop spot with Marc Leishman after a6-under 66 Thursday, ripping up AugustaNational with a performance that camewith only one complaint: It couldvebeen even better.

That it happened in the Masters waseven more remarkable, considering thisis the one major where Garcia has neverbeen much of a factor.

Obviously, its not my most favoriteplace, he said. We try to enjoy it asmuch as we can each time we come here.Sometimes it comes out better than oth-ers but today is was one of those days.You know, lets enjoy it while it lasts.

In recent years, Garcia seemedresigned to the perception that time had

passed him by even at the relativelyyoung age of 33.

Until Thursday, he had not led in anyround of a major since the British Openat Carnoustie in 2007, when he set thepace the first three days but lost ofcourse to Padraig Harrington in aplayoff. That was the latest in a seriesof bitter disappointments, of close-but-no-cigar calls in every major champion-ship but the Masters, where he has onlytwo top-10 finishes in his previous 14appearances.

Last year, he shot himself out ofcontention during a dismal third roundand bluntly declared he just didnt havethe game or temperament to win a

major championship certainly not atAugusta.

Maybe I didnt say it the right waybecause it was one of those frustratingmoments, he conceded.

There was none of that frustrationon the opening day of this Masters. Thefirst 10 holes mightve been as goodas Garcia can play, a 5-under score hemade look downright easy.

Weve seen this from himbefore, just not over the entirefour days of a major.

That will be the big ques-tion when he tees off this morn-ing after heavy overnight rainssoaked the course, perhapssetting up another day of lowscores.

Plenty of players took advan-tage of the gentle conditions.

Even an eighth-grader. GuanTianlang, the 14-year-old from Chinaand youngest to compete in a major in148 years, played well beyond his age.He holed a 15-foot putt from just off the18th green for a respectable round of73 and a reasonable chance of makingthe cut.

Tiger Woods wasnt far off as hebegan his quest for a fifth green jacket.Wild at the start, including a tee shotthat knocked a cup of beer out of aspectators hand, Woods settled into agroove and opened with a 70 as his girl-friend, Olympic ski champion LindseyVonn, watched on a few holes. In hisfour Masters wins, Woods has neveropened with a score lower than 70. His

key is not to shoot himself out of thetournament.

Its a good start, he said. Someyears, some guys shot 65 starting outhere. But right now, Im only four backand Im right there.

Garcia and Leishman had a 1-shotlead over Dustin Johnson, who has agame that fits perfectly for Augustaand he finally brought it. Johnson hit a9-iron for his second shot on the par-513th and made a 15-foot eagle putt, andhe smashed his drive on the par-5 15thand hit pitching wedge just through thegreen for an easy birdie.

Fred Couples, the 53-year-old won-der at his favorite major, made bogey on

the 18th and still was in the large groupat 68. There were a dozen rounds in the60s and nearly half the field shot par orbetter. Three-time Masters championPhil Mickelson recovered from a roughstart by running off four birdies in a5-hole stretch on the back nine to sal-vage a 71, while Rory McIlroy had a 72.

Woods said he struggled with theslower pace of the greens, and so diddefending champion Bubba Watson,who opened with a 75.

Its not about respect for Garcia.Augusta National is the ultimate love-hate relationship and Thursday was ararity. He loved it.

Garcia began his round with anapproach that danced by the hole andleft him a tap-in birdie. He rolled in a

20-foot birdie on the par-3 sixth, andthen shot up the leaderboard with a pairof tough, downhill putts from 8 feet onthe ninth and 15 feet on the 10th.

Will this be the week he finally FINALLY! breaks through? AdamScott, who is playing with Garcia thefirst two days, said its never out of thequestion. Never mind that 0-for-57 markin the majors.

Hes got more than potential to winany tournament he plays in, Scott said.Garcia will admit he sometimes lets hisemotions get the best of him, which isnot exactly the way to deal with tryingto hold yourself together over four ofthe sports most stressful days. But Scottdoesnt think for a minute that Garciahas given up on the idea of winning amajor title.

Garcia struggled off the tee on theback nine and he 3-putted for par at the13th. He also made tough par saves onthe 11th and 17th for his first bogey-freeround at the Masters since 2002.

Composure is everything to Garcia,who still acts like a kid. Only threeweeks ago, he hit a tee shot at BayHill that settled on a large branch in atree. Garcia climbed the tree, playeda remarkable backhanded shot to thefairway and then jumped some 10 feetto the ground.

He needed no such escapes on Day 1at Augusta.

Now, if he can just hold it togetherfor three more days.

By RUSTY MILLERThe Associated PressCOLUMBUS After

years and years of getting acold shoulder from the city ofCincinnati, Ohio States foot-ball team is taking its act onthe road to the Queen City.

Call it a spring thaw.The Buckeyes will wind

up their 15 spring practic-es on Saturdayat Paul BrownStadium, home ofthe Bengals, whilework is being doneon their own OhioStadium.

Coach UrbanMeyer, a 1986graduate of the University ofCincinnati, cant wait to showhis players around and

show them off.Were going to take our

players to the Reds museum,he said. Were going to givethem a little taste of Cincinnatiafterward with MontgomeryInn ribs, Graeters ice creamand some Skyline (chili). Sowere going to do it right.

Before that, the Buckeyeswill play their annual intra-squad scrimmage in a city thatover the years has shown onlylukewarm interest in OhioState and has traditionally notsent many of its top high schoolplayers to the Buckeyes.

The trip is a step towardmending those fences.

There does seem to besome sort of disconnect,said Ohio State assistantcoach Kerry Coombs, a long-time high school coach inCincinnati. Coach Meyer isworking really hard to bridgewhatever gap there might be.

Two Ohio State starters defensive lineman AdolphusWashington and offensivelineman Andrew Norwell are from Cincinnati. But thecity has never embraced theBuckeyes as do Cleveland,Toledo, Youngstown, Akron orDayton. Top football playersseem to either stay home andplay for the Bearcats or headoff to Notre Dame, Kentuckyor other SoutheasternConference locales.

Norwell is looking forwardto playing this road game.

It makes it exciting play-ing somewhere else, saidNorwell, a senior. I love play-ing in the Shoe, but play-ing in Cincinnati hits home tome. Being from Cincinnati, itsgoing to be great.

Meyer, for one, believes theBuckeyes have established abeachhead in Cincinnati that

will help sway prep stars tocome north to Columbus.

I wasnt here in years pastbut I have heard a lot of that,Well, we havent done wellin Cincinnati, the second-year coach of the Buckeyessaid. I think were doinggreat. I think were killing it.Adolphus Washington couldpotentially be a great player

at Ohio State. Andrecently weve donegood down there.Theres really goodplayers, really goodhigh school coaches.Coach Coombs hashelped and (assistant)Tim Hinton obvious-

ly knows Cincinnati since hecoached at UC for a long time.I went there. So I think were

doing great. I love Cincinnati.Washington, a sophomore

outside linebacker/rush line-man who played well in spotsa year ago, is looking forwardto going home.

Its going to be a goodthing to play in an NFL sta-dium, first and foremost,he added. Ive got a lot ofpeople coming to the game.Everybody keeps saying thatthey want to see me play. Nowif they make it down there,theyll see me.

Ohio States coaching staffsplit the squad into two teamson Thursday. After practicingtoday at the Woody Hayesfacility, the Buckeyes willdepart by bus on Saturdaymorning for Cincinnati. Meyerstill has some problem areashes evaluating, such as thefront seven on defense and theright tackle spot.

Sophomore Taylor Deckeris taking snaps at right tacklebut Meyer expressed concernthat he hasnt seized the start-ing position and made it his.

Meyer did lavish praise onjunior linebacker Curtis Grant,an acclaimed recruit who hasnot been an impact player sofar. With All-Big Ten line-backer Ryan Shaziers avail-ability limited by injury,Grant is starting at middlelinebacker and asserting him-self for the first time in his

college career.More than just playing

in the Bengals stadium, theBuckeyes will also get tomeet the teams coach. MarvinLewis will speak to the team atsome point during the trip.

I love Marvin Lewis.Hes one of the great foot-ball coaches, a great friend ofmine, Meyer added. So itsgoing to be a good trip.

Buckeyes to end work-outs with Cincinnati trip

Greinke breaks collarbone in brawl with PadresThe Associated Press

SAN DIEGO ZackGreinke had his left arm in asling and a dazed look on hisface as he told his side of thestory. Barely two hours before,the $147 million Dodgerspitcher was injured in a wildfight with the SanDiego Padres thatdidnt even endwhen the game did.

Greinke brokehis left collarbonein a bench-clearing brawl dur-ing Los Angeles 3-2 victoryThursday night, leaving theDodgers so furious that Matt

Kemp confronted Padres slug-ger Carlos Quentin nose-to-nose as the two were leavingPetco Park.

Juan Uribes pinch-hithome run in the eighth put theDodgers ahead, two inningsafter Greinke hit Quentin onthe left shoulder with a pitch.The slugger started walkingtoward the mound and Greinkeappeared to say something.The 6-2, 240-pound Quentinthen charged the 2009 AL CyYoung Award winner, who is6-2 and 195 pounds. Greinkelowered his left (non-throw-ing) shoulder into Quentin andtook the brunt of the blow asthey collided. Quentin tackled

the pitcher to the grass.Quentin and Greinke endedup at the bottom of a hugescrum as players from bothsides ran onto the field.

Dodgers manager DonMattingly was livid, sayingit shouldnt have happenedbecause Quentin was hit on a3-2 pitch in a 1-run game.

Thats just stupid is whatit is, Mattingly added. Heshould not play a game untilGreinke can pitch. If he playsbefore Greinke pitches, some-things wrong. He caused thewhole thing.

Greinke twice hit Quentinwith pitches when they werein the American League.

Quentin said his historywith Greinke has been well-documented. That situationcould have been avoided.Youd have to ask Zack aboutthat.

Ive been hit by manypitches. Some have beenintentional, some have notbeen. For the amount I havebeen hit and my hitting style,Im going to repeat: I havenever reacted that way.

Kemp, one of four play-ers ejected following the fight,found Quentin in the hallwaynear the players exit as they

were leaving the ballpark.The 6-4, 214-pound Kempbriefly went nose-to-nose withQuentin before Padres pitch-er Clayton Richard, who is6-5 and 245 pounds, steppedbetween them. Police andsecurity moved to break it up.

The teams play another3-game series atDodger Stadiumbeginning Mondaynight.

I never hit himon purpose, said

Greinke, who still appearedshaken after the game. Inever thought about hittinghim on purpose. He always

seems to think that Im hittinghim on purpose but thats notthe case. Thats all I can reallysay about it.

When the players werefinally pulled apart, Quentinwas led off the field by team-mate Mark Kotsay. Greinkewas checked by Mattingly anda trainer before walking offtoward the dugout, his uni-form top disheveled after ithad been pulled over his headby Quentin.

The right-hander, who hadhis wife and in-laws in thestands, joined the Dodgers asa free agent in the offseason,signing a $147 million, 6-yearcontract. After the teams start-

ed going back to the dugoutsand bullpens, Jerry Hairston Jr.came running across the fieldyelling and pointing at someonein the San Diego dugout andhad to be restrained. The bench-es and bullpens emptied again,leading to pushing and shoving.It did not appear any puncheswere thrown but suspensionsand fines are sure to follow.

Quentin, Kemp, Hairstonand Greinke were ejected.Los Angeles reliever ChrisCapuano was given all thetime he needed to warm upwhen play resumed after adelay of about 15 minutes.

Following the game, theDodgers announced that

Greinke has a broken collar-bone. Its uncertain how longhe will be sidelined.

Quentin was hit by apitch above the right wristby Dodgers reliever RonaldBelisario on Tuesday and hadto leave the game. He sat outWednesday nights game.

Quentin has been hit bypitches 116 times in his career,including an AL-high 23 timesin 2011 with the ChicagoWhite Sox. Greinke has hit46 big-league batters since hisdebut in 2004.

After play resumed, Alexi

Amarista pinch-ran for Quentin,advanced on a wild pitch andscored on Yonder Alonsos sin-gle to tie the game at 2.

Uribe homered to left on a3-2 pitch from Luke Gregerson(1-1) with one out in the eighthto give the Dodgers a 3-2 lead.

Matt Guerrier (1-0) retiredthe only batter he faced, get-ting Jesus Guzman to fly outto end the seventh with run-ners on first and second.

Former San Diego starAdrian Gonzalez hit a 2-runhomer deep into the seats downthe right-field line with twoouts in the first off Marquis,his first. Carl Crawford was

aboard on a leadoff single.Marquis allowed two runsand seven hits in five innings,struck out five and walkedfour.

GIANTS 7, CUBS 6CHICAGO Angel Pagan had

a go-ahead sacrifice fly after pitcherRyan Vogelsong walked with thebases loaded to tie it in the fifthinning and San Francisco ralliedfrom an early 5-run deficit to beatChicago.

Pablo Sandoval hit a 2-run dou-ble in a 4-run fourth that was spurredby Cubs shortstop Starlin Castros2-out fielding error, helping the WorldSeries champions win their fourthin a row.

Vogelsong (1-1) yielded eight hitsand five runs, four earned, in the firstthree innings before retiring his final10 batters on a foggy and damp,40-degree day. Scott Feldman (0-2)lasted 4 1/3 innings and gave up six

runs two earned on seven hits.Santiago Casilla got out of an eighth-inning jam and Sergio Romo alloweda 1-out double in the ninth beforestriking out Castro and AnthonyRizzo for his sixth save.

Rizzo hit a 2-run homer andBrent Lillibridge had a 2-run singlefor the Cubs.

INTERLEAGUENATIONALS 7, WHITE SOX 4WASHINGTON Ryan

Zimmerman delivered a 2-run doubleafter Bryce Harper was intention-ally walked and Washington beatChicago on a windy night to cap a3-game sweep.

Dan Haren (1-1) got his first winfor the Nationals despite allowing 10hits in five innings.

With the score tied at 3 in thefourth, Haren helped himself bydoubling off Dylan Axelrod (0-1)and eventually scoring on a wildpitch with two outs. Chicago thenput Harper on base on purpose butthe move didnt work: Cleanup hit-

ter Zimmerman lined a double toright on Axelrods 103rd and final pitch of the evening. That putWashington ahead 6-3 and relieversRyan Mattheus, Tyler Clippard andRafael Soriano made it hold up. AfterHarper drove in an insurance run inthe eighth, Soriano pitched the ninthfor his fifth save in six chances, histhird this series.

AMERICAN LEAGUEBOSTON Chris Davis hit his

sixth homer and Adam Jones drovein two runs, including a tie-breakingdouble, to lead the Baltimore Oriolespast the Boston Red Sox 3-2 onThursday night.

(18-for-39).Dustin Pedroia and Mike Napoli

had consecutive RBI singles for theRed Sox.

Baltimore improved to 1-3 in1-run games after going 29-9 lastseason. With a game-time tempera-ture of 45 degrees, Fenway Parkwas only about two-thirds full a nightafter a record sellout streak ended.The paid attendance was 27,704, thesmallest crowd at the ballpark since

April 16, 2003.The Orioles broke a 2-all tie

on Jones RBI double in the sev-enth inning off Koji Uehara. ClaytonMortensen (0-1) took the loss. BrianMatusz (1-0) struck out the only twobatters he faced and Jim Johnsonpitched the ninth in a light rain for hisfourth save.
