Red Lake Falls answered in the bottom of the inning when Pacey Struthers led off with a single, and Brock Knott was hit by a pitch. The next batter popped out to the catcher before Gieseke walked before another out. Ben Gullingsrud hit a frozen rope to centerfield over the head of the fielder for a bases-clearing double to tie the game at 5-5.

THIRD INNING
The first two Crookston batters (Lubinski and Ames) walked and that forced Red Lake Falls to make a pitching change. Carson Erickson came into pitch and got three outs to retire Crookston.
In the bottom of the inning, the first two Red Lake Falls batters were retired before Pacey Struthers singled. The next batter hit into a fielder’s choice and the inning was over.

SEVENTH INNING
Crookston had two runners on after Longoria walked and moved over to third base on a sacrifice bunt from Giese. Demarais also walked, and runners were at the corners with one out. Demarais took off running to second, and the throw to second base went into centerfield, and Longoria scored to tie the game at 6-6.

EIGHTH INNING
Crookston was retired in 1-2-3 fashion.

Crookston scored another run on a wild pitch, and added a third run with a double steal for a 9-6 lead.
Red Lake County tried to answer and had back-to-back one-out walks before Crookston got a double play to end the game.

POLK COUNTY SHERIFF’S OFFICE WELCOMES K9 JAX TO THE TEAM

jax-2-e1688425794118-120x150651076-1

Sheriff Jim Tadman and the Polk County Sheriff’s Office would like to introduce the newest team member. It is a new K9 Jax.

Jax is a 15-month-old German Shepherd. K9 Jax and Deputy Jarrin Gunderson spent 13 weeks bonding and training at McDonough K9 in Anoka, MN. The dynamic duo was exposed to numerous challenges, scenarios, and apprehension exercises during their training. K9 Jax is dual-purpose trained. This means he is ready for both narcotics scent detection and apprehension. While we hope we never need them for this, they will be prepared to help with missing persons as well.

K9 Jax traveled nearly 5,000 miles to the Polk County Sheriff’s Office. “He came from the Czech Republic-born and raised,” said Gunderson, “he was flown from the Czech Republic in March. Jax then flew into Chicago. My instructor picked him up there, where he ultimately was brought to Anoka, where I picked him up.” Gunderson then took Jax home for the weekend before being back in Anoka, MN, for training.

The Polk County Sherriff’s Office currently has one more K9 on staff, which is K9 Rex. With K9 Buffey recently medically retiring, Polk County saw room for one more K9 to add to the team. “This is a huge asset to have; that’s why we started the K9 program back up a few years ago,” said Gunderson, “for us starting with safety, we can put these dogs in other situations that otherwise compromise our safety. And they’re a huge asset with the drug epidemic.” With the youth of Jax and Officer Jarrin Gunderson, the Polk County Sherriff’s Office is hoping they can be a dynamic duo for years to come.

With Jax being as young as he is, he enjoys his downtime and activities as a standard puppy would. “When Jax is not on duty, he likes to hang out with me and more so my fianc, he likes to play with his kongs and toys, but even when we’re off duty, he loves training.”

Gunderson stated that Jax’s favorite activity is his training. With objectives and incentives always on the table, Jax feels like he’s playing one big game. “Dogs don’t view training as working like you and me. For them, it’s all fun, it’s always a game, and there is a reward to whatever we do,” said Gunderson, “when we train in apprehension, and they get that bite or toy, that’s their fun, that’s their reward.” Gunderson also stated the importance of being “animated” and enthusiastic with these animals, as if they were home dogs.

Jax has a big personality, according to his handler Officer Gunderson. “His nickname is Chaos. That’s what my fianc and I call him because every time you let him run around, he wags his tail and knocks everything over. But he likes to have fun with everything he does,” said Gunderson. When it’s time to work, Jax takes his duty very seriously. The staff describes his eyes as “wolf-like” when it’s time to go to work. He will not be denied the task at hand.

We are proud of both Deputy Gunderson and K9 Jax for completing their training. When asked how he felt about his new position with Polk County, K9 Jax replied with a loud “WOOF.” Deputy Gunderson translated, “I am ready to do my part to keep our community safe.”

NORTH DAKOTA SAFE KIDS COALITIONS TO HELP PROTECT CHILDREN FROM HEATSTROKE

safe-kids-coalition-1686665

Hot summer days have contributed to at least nine child deaths so far this year in the United States due to heatstroke, which can happen when kids are unattended in cars. This often occurs when children are forgotten in a vehicle, left there intentionally for what parents think will be a “brief errand,” or when kids gain access to an unlocked vehicle in their yard or a neighbor’s. The four Safe Kids Coalitions in North Dakota remind caregivers to never leave children alone in a vehicle, and if you see a child alone in a car, call 911.

Heatstroke, also known as hyperthermia, is the leading cause of non-crash, vehicle-related deaths for children. It occurs when the body can’t cool itself quickly enough, and the body temperature rises to dangerous levels. Young children are particularly at risk as their bodies heat up three to five times faster than adults. Since 1998, over 940 children across the United States have died from heatstroke alone in a vehicle.

A car can heat 19 degrees in just 10 minutes and eventually get 40-50 degrees hotter inside than outside. Therefore, on a mild 70-degree day, temperatures inside a car can get as hot as 110-120 degrees, and cracking a window doesn’t help. Heatstroke can happen anytime, anywhere, and has happened in all 50 states, with record years seeing up to 53 children die of this cause.

The four Safe Kids Coalitions in North Dakota offer these tips to help protect kids from this preventable tragedy.

They suggest that we can cut down the number of deaths and near misses by remembering to ACT.

Avoid heatstroke-related injury and death by never leaving a child alone in a car, not even for a minute. And keep your vehicle locked up when you’re not inside so kids don’t get in on their own. Even if you don’t have kids in your family, keeping your car locked can prevent other kids in the neighborhood from gaining access to a vehicle that could pose a threat.

C- Create reminders. Keep a stuffed animal or other memento in your child’s car seat when it’s empty, and move it to the front seat as a visual reminder when your child is in the back seat. Or place and secure your phone, briefcase, or purse in the back seat when traveling with your child. Set the alarm on your phone or call another family member to report that the child(ren) has been dropped off.

T- Take action. If you see a child alone in a car, call 911. Emergency personnel want you to call. They are trained to respond to these situations. One call could save a life.

For more information on preventing child heatstroke deaths, please visit www.safekids.org/heatstroke or contact one of the North Dakota Coalition Coordinators: Safe Kids Bismarck-Mandan (Alyssa at 701.323.6504), Safe Kids Fargo-Moorhead (Katie at 701.234.7233), Safe Kids Grand Forks (Carma at 701.739.1591), or Safe Kids Minot (Amber at 701.418.8527)

Further testing confirms substance found in White House was cocaine

shutterstock_1819595129516152

Law enforcement officials said on Wednesday that lab testing has confirmed that white, powdery substance discovered by the Secret Service at the White House on Sunday was cocaine. Questions remain, however, about how the substance got into the building. The Secret Service is leading an investigation of how the substance got into the West Wing, which will include consulting cameras and entrance logs.

According to a U.S. Secret Service official, the cocaine was found Sunday evening in a small, zippered bag in part of the West Wing (which houses the Oval Office and offices of some of the president’s top aides and support staff).  The discovery caused a brief shutdown of the White House after it was found near an entrance where visitors taking tours are directed to leave their phones in small cubbies, officials said. An initial test of the substance conducted by the District of Columbia Fire Department soon after it was found indicated it was cocaine, and the formal lab test confirmed that result on Tuesday night.

Mr. Biden was not at the White House over the weekend. He, first lady Dr. Jill Biden and members of their family departed for Camp David on Friday. They returned to the White House on Tuesday for an event with the National Education Association and Fourth of July festivities. White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said President Biden has been briefed on the incident and noted the area where the cocaine was discovered is “heavily traveled” by visitors, stating: “when it comes to visitors to the West Wing, they come for many reasons, obviously we do have West Wing tours that occur here on campus,” adding tours took place Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

Ohio man gets life sentence for rape of 10-year-old girl, who traveled out of state for abortion

shutterstock_1424378804281155

The Ohio man accused of raping and impregnating a 10-year-old girl – who then sought an abortion in Indiana – was sentenced to at least 25 years in prison.  One year after the young girl’s out-of-state abortion made national headlines, Gerson Fuentes, 28, pleaded to one count of rape of a child under 10 and one count of rape in Franklin County Court on Wednesday. Fuentes originally pleaded not guilty after being arrested last July.

Franklin County Prosecutor Dan Meyer said at the hearing that prosecutors and defense recommended a combined sentence of life in prison, with the possibility of parole after 25 years. Fuentes will also be a lifetime registered sex offender upon release. Judge Julie Lynch sentenced Fuentes to the recommended sentence “without comment,” per the child’s family’s wishes.

The story gained national attention when the victim was taken across state lines because of questions about whether she could legally obtain an abortion in Ohio. The young girl’s abortion was sought shortly after the Supreme Court’s Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision, which overturned national protection of abortion rights. Medical records indicated that the child underwent an abortion in Indiana on June 30, 2022. By July 2, Columbus police were at the Indianapolis hospital to investigate the girl’s pregnancy, prosecutor Daniel Lenert said at the hearing.

Police say that Fuentes confessed to raping the girl twice when she was 9 years old, and DNA evidence confirmed that Fuentes was responsible.  Fuentes may be subject to deportation, as he is not a U.S. citizen.

‘Five Nights at Freddy’s’ trailer drops, starring Josh Hutcherson

shutterstock_203793439182637

In the Five Nights at Freddy’s film trailer, fans will take a look into Freddy Fazbear and friends’ world — and can expect all the fright and fears they’ve come to expect from the video game. Starring Josh Hutcherson (Hunger Games), Matthew Lillard (Scream), Mary Stuart Masterson (Some Kind of Wonderful), and Elizabeth Lail (You), the Emma Tammi-directed film is based on 2014’s multi-platform video game of the same name.

The trailer sees Hutcherson as Mike Schmidt, and Piper Rubio as his little sister, Abby Schmidt. In order to support them, Mike calls a man named William Afton (Lillard), to inquire about a security job at Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza. After arriving, Mike quickly learns that the job entails more than just guarding over the formerly non-working animatronics — the characters begin to come alive, murdering anyone in the building after midnight.

Five Nights at Freddy’s is set for release on October 27; take a look at the trailer – here.

Take a look at Liam Neeson in the trailer for “Retribution”

shutterstock_1209768463543317

Lionsgate Studio is sharing the trailer for the new action thriller Retribution, starring Liam Neeson. The film, written by Christopher Salmanpour and directed by Nimród Antal, is a remake of the 2015 Spanish film El Desconocido, and also stars Noma Dumezweni, Matthew Modine, Lilly Aspell, Jack Champion, and Embeth Davidtz.

The film follows Matt Turner (Neeson), a father of two who receives instructions from a mysterious caller who has rigged his car with bombs. The trailer shows Matt attempt to track down the caller – after he himself is accused of being the bomber. According to an official film synopsis, “When a mysterious caller puts a bomb under his car seat, Matt Turner begins a high-speed chase across the city to complete a specific series of tasks. With his kids trapped in the back seat and a bomb that will explode if they get out of the car, a normal commute becomes a twisted game of life or death as Matt follows the stranger’s increasingly dangerous instructions in a race against time to save his family.”

Retribution opens in theaters August 25; take a look at the trailer – here.

SPORTS FEEVER – July 6, 2023

sports-feever-logo922734

SPORTS FEEVER by Chris Fee of KROX Radio – chrisjfee@yahoo.com

I hope you had a happy Fourth of July! We are a little short this week, but high school baseball will be able to use new technology, and we have the story on that below. Have a great weekend.

The legion tournaments will start next week and we will have information on that in next weeks column.

— — —

The use of a one-way communication device between a coach in the dugout and a teams catcher for the purposes of calling pitches will be permitted in high school baseball beginning in 2024.

This change to Rules 1-6-2 and 3-2-5 was one of five rules revisions approved by the National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS) Baseball Rules Committee at its June 4-6 meeting in Indianapolis. The recommendations were subsequently approved by the NFHS Board of Directors.

The new rules prohibit coaches from communicating with any other player besides the catcher on defense and with any player while batting. The coach must also be in the dugout when using the communication device.

This change is consistent with the growth of the game and is indicative of a measured and responsible approach to enable technology into our level of competition, said Elliot Hopkins, NFHS Director of Sports and Educational Services and liaison to the Baseball Rules Committee. The committee has made these changes to maintain the balance between offense and defense; increase the pace of play; and will responsibly manage technology so there is no advantaged gained by schools that have more available resources than some of their contemporaries. Creating a level playing field is paramount to education-based athletics.

Game management by umpires was addressed with a change to Rule 10-2-3h. The edit removes spectators behavior from the umpire-in-chiefs jurisdiction when deciding to forfeit a contest. Only infractions by players, coaches or team/bench personnel are under the umpires jurisdiction. The committee agreed that poor behavior by spectators should be handled by game administration.

This change is a complementary rule to support schools game management role in addressing unacceptable behavior and will allow the umpire to focus on the action and players on the field, Hopkins said.

Rule 1-6-1 was added and designates a wristband with defensive shifts, pitching choices or game directions as non-electronic equipment and must be a single, solid color and worn on the forearm. Pitchers cards must not be white, gray or a distracting color and worn on their non-pitching arm.

A complete listing of the baseball rules changes will be available on the NFHS website at www.nfhs.org. Click on Activities & Sports at the top of the home page and select Baseball.

According to the most recent NFHS High School Athletics Participation Survey, baseball is the fourth-most popular sport for boys with 481,004 student-athletes in 15,925 high schools nationwide. The survey also indicated that 1,156 girls across the country play high school baseball.

It was two o’clock in the morning and a husband and wife were sleeping when suddenly the phone rang. The husband picked up the phone and said, Hello? (paused for a few seconds) How the heck do I know? What am I, the weatherman? and slams the phone down. His wife rolls over and asks, Who was that? The husband replies I don’t know, some guy who wanted to know if the coast was clear tonight.

Two women are walking home from the bar. They both have to pee, so they slip into a nearby cemetery. One uses her panties to wipe herself, and the other uses a wreath off a headstone. The next night, the husbands meet at the bar, one looks at the other and says, I’m gonna have to watch my wife, she came home with no panties last night. The other one says, Oh well, mine came home with a card wedged in her ass saying, You were loved and will be missed by the whole entire fire department.
