Group claims 13,000 Vt. seniors going hungry Leaders promote “food stamps”
Community and state leaders gathered last week in Montpelier to discuss strategies to bring more food dollars to Vermont’s low-income seniors. Marissa Parisi, executive director of the Vermont Campaign to End Childhood Hunger, claimed that “Hunger is on the rise among senior citizens in Vermont, yet only 40 percent of those eligible receive 3SquaresVT benefits, commonly called “food stamps”. While many seniors lose out on the help, Vermont also loses out on critical federal dollars to stimulate the economy,

By Shawn Pemrick newmarketpress@denpubs.com Chittenden Reservoir Day, an annual cleanup and celebration event in Chittenden, was commemorated in a special way this summer. The big reservoir, an important resource to Rutland County, is now 100 years old. Central Vermont Public Service employees and local volunteers took charge of the traditional cleanup around the reservoir and Leffert's Pond. The cleanup was followed by a community hot-dog roast followed by guided hiking, kayaking and hydroelectric tours. Biologists from the Green Mountain National Forest attended and conducted sessions for youngsters about the dam’s resource; they even included a few “secret” fishing tips. Chittenden Reservoir was constructed over several years

Marker to memorialize Vermont’s Gold Rush Gold-fever hit Vermont in the 1800s By Lou Varricchio newmarketpress@myfairpoint.net The heyday of Vermont’s gold rush may have been a small dab of paint on the state’s 218-year-old historic canvas, but the crumbling remains of nearly a dozen mines and test shafts pepper the landscape in the Bridgewater-Plymouth area of Windsor County. Windsor County was the prime focus of Vermont's 1850s-1880s gold rush era. Now the first state historical marker to recognize the Vermont Gold Rush will be dedicated at Camp Plymouth State Park on Scout Camp Road in Ludlow. Members of the Rutland Rock and Mineral Club were instrumental in urging the state to erect the cast-iron marker. The marker will be erected near the foot-
bridge which leads back to the site of one of the abandoned gold mines later this year. The club will hold gold-panning demonstrations on the day of the dedication, which has not been determined yet. “While 19th century gold rushes in California and Colorado get all the attention, there was a little bit of the Wild West in Vermont between 1855 and 1888,” said Marie Fitzgerald, president of the Rutland club. Fitzgerald said several club members pan for gold in Vermont streams. One member found a small nugget of some value near Ludlow last year. In Rutland County, she said, some gold has been found in the sands and gravel of the Cold River which races through the rugged Clarendon Gorge. In 1855, a California gold miner returning home to Vermont found gold flakes and a small nugget in Reading Pound Brook. Within a few months, Reading Pound, Broad and Buffalo brooks were swarming with panners looking for gold. The first-phase of Vermont’s Gold Rush
was centered around Plymouth Five Corners and lasted four years. In true frontier-style, hotels and saloons sprung up in Five Corners to service miners, merchants and hangers on. However, by 1861—when civil strife broke out between the North and South—young Vermonters headed off for battlefields instead of the Windsor gold fields. Vermont‘s Windsor County gold field was forgotten—until a brief, final spurt in the 1880s. The town of Five Corners was abandoned in the 1860s. All that remained were cellar holes, stone sluice walls, and rare privy artifacts. There are no markers for the individual gold mines, according to John P. Dumville, Historic Sites Operations chief for the Vermont Division for Historic Preservation. He said that the old mines are located on private land and no one—at least until later this year—had ever requested a marker or gotten landowner permission to erect a marker. “It is an interesting story,” Dumville said. “My great grandfather, Ira Sumner, was a gold mine worker in Windsor County,” cave and mine explorer Rick Pingree told the Rutland Tribune in a 2005 news story. “Unfortunately, there aren’t a lot of records from the time.” The state’s largest gold-mine operation was the Rooks Mine in Camp Plymouth State Park. It is the only gold mine that is situated, in part, on state-owned land. Vermont’s
Typical gold prospector of the late 1800s: Vermont’s newest state historical marker, to be erected latee this year at Camp Plymouth State Park in Ludlow, will memorialize the time when gold fever hit Vermonters between the 1850s and the 1880s. new gold rush historical marker will be situated near the remains of the Rooks Mine. All other gold mines and test adits are on private property—they are dangerous and off limits to individuals without the owner ’s permission.

Losing a pet is an emotional thing. It's important that all animals have identification so they can be returned to their owners. An I.D. tag on your pet's collar is the easiest method. The tag should include your name, address, telephone number and the pet's name. If there's extra space, the phone number of the veterinarian is also a good idea. If you move, make sure you get a new tag for your animal with your new contact information. Pets can also be microchipped. Many humane societies and veterinarians have a scanner which identifies if an animal has a microchip. If there's a microchip, a phone call is made to identify the owner. Either way, please take a moment and check that your favorite pet has identification so you can get him back safe and sound in a hurry. If you have questions, call the Rutland County Humane Society at 4836700.

Trying to understand
I
understand a business—large, medium, or small—has lots of expenses. I understand the particulars of these expenses: workmen’s comp, health insurance, payroll, and unemployment benefits; these items can make it impossible for many businesses to coax profits enough to ever succeed. I understand dedication to any size business, especially regarding time and energy from the person or persons who are at the helm, must be immense—if that business has even the scantest chance of prospering. I understand a businessowner may have spent tens of thousands of dollars to learn rules that suggest margins one should set in order for the business to survive. I understand relationships with vendors can be tenuous, which could affect the cost of their product to be steeper than it should be. I understand that business operating space rental contracts aren’t always fail-safe and they aren’t always entered into with a forthright conscious by the lessee. I understand that the costs of heating, electric, telephone, marketing, etc., perpetually slide upward. I understand taxes. I understand taxes can break your spirit. I understand business. For six years I studied business under the late William J. Doyle, a successful New Yorker who owned William Doyle Galleries on 87th Street between Lexington and Third avenues in Manhattan—the business hub of the world. I was Bill Doyle’s assistant, his right hand man, his confidant; I was driver, student and bodyguard. I learned from Bill, a man who—by his own blood sweat and tears, natural instincts, and love of people—established an internationally recognized auction house. To this day, Doyel’s business competes successfully for goods and estates against giant firms including Sotheby’s and Christies. We should understand how Bill conducted business in a manner to ensure his personal success, while at the same time, making employees and clients happy. I understand there are local restaurants that deal with every nook and cranny of business just like every other business deals with—but there’s this local restaurant I know that serves a “twofer” fish meal for $12, and a “twofer” filet meal for $20. I understand this restaurant’s two-dinner deal is priced to be unusually—well, relatively—fair. I understand that this business feeds clients and sends its clients home happy and well fed. I wish this business the best. I understand business. I understand business is difficult. This summer—on your travels to events here and there and large and small—when you are thirsty and decide to purchase a bottle of water, you’ll find you’ll most often be charged $2.50 or more. That, I don’t understand. Charging $2.50 or more for a single bottle of water will not make clients happy. I don’t believe we’ve learned much from this so-called economic slowdown. Many businesses still charge too much and many customers still pay too much. Rusty DeWees can be reached at rustyd@pshift.com.
The Obama-Kennedy Health Care reform
H
ealth care "reform" is at the head of the national agenda right now. President Obama and his Democratic allies make this case for so-called
change: "Americans are spending far too much for health care. That is because of waste and inefficiency among our health care providers. At the same time there are 45 million Americans without health insurance. Your government needs to wring the waste and inefficiency out of the system, curb unnecessary procedures and expenditures, promote behavioral changes to prevent illness, and use the savings to insure and where necessary subsidize the presently uninsured to. achieve universal coverage." The straightforward way to achieve this lofty goal is to install, as Great Britain and Canada have, a single payer system. Obama says this is what he would do if starting from scratch. Single payer means that all payments to medical providers for covered health care services are made by one single payer: the government, or one or more administrators contracted by the government. Everyone is included in the system. The funds required by that entity to make payments for services come from taxes. The government determines which medical services will be covered for which patients, how intensively they will be provided, and how much the providers will be reimbursed for providing those services. The government prohibits any private health insurance coverage for medical conditions covered by the single payer plan. Single payer systems rely upon the government's global budget to "control costs". The global budget attempts to match expenditures and revenues by directing providers to ration health care through postponement and denial of services, and by reducing government reimbursement to the "private" providers. Since 1965 the U.S. has had a mandatory single payer system for hospitalization and physician's services for over-65 seniors. It's called Medicare, and it's an inspiration for Obama and his allies. Participation is mandatory, because if you don't agree to accept Medicare, you can't collect your social security retirement checks. Medicare is now insolvent. Its hospitalization insurance fund will not be able to pay for services after 2017 unless new financing is found. Its projected unfunded liabilities (payments above revenues) between now and 2082 total $36 trillion. Medicare underpays physicians and hospitals. (So do Vermont's Catamount Health, which pays at Medicare rates, and Medicaid, which pays even less.) Obama and his allies are planning to finance much of their "reform" by
From the Earth to the Moon
T
his week we’re toasting the 40th anniversary of the first human lunar landing by Apollo 11 astronauts in July 1969. It was an amazing feat of national will and technical prowess. Now, fast forward to July 2009: If all goes well, NASA plans return astronauts to the Moon by 2020. The modern idea of humans visiting and living on the Moon had its origin in 19th and 20th century science fiction literature. While researchers, notably Konstantin Tsiolkovsky, began to contemplate the technology required to escape Earth’s gravity for a journey to the Moon as early as 1890, it was not until 1938—when the British Interplanetary Society completed the world’s first scientific study of a lunar space vehicle—that the idea began to interest a wider community of space thinkers and experimenters. In the decade following World War II, several detailed lunar base studies were published. These concepts captured the public imagination. Arthur C. Clarke’s book The Exploration of Space, published in 1951, followed in 1953 by Willy Ley’s, Fred Whipple’s and Wernher von Braun’s book The Conquest of the Moon, presented realistic plans and colorful illustrations showing how humans could travel to the Moon and construct outposts there. “It seems likely that, well before the end of this century,” Clarke wrote in 1947, “an attempt will be made to form some permanent colony on the Moon.” By the late 1950s and early 1960s—with the launching of Sputnik, and successful tests of large rockets and humans in near-Earth space—the possibility of men and women traveling to, and living on, the Moon attracted United States and Soviet Union space planners. In 1959, the U.S. Army Ballistic Missile Agency selected H.H. Koelle with von Braun to complete the first serious, technically detailed plan to construct a lunar base. Classified “top secret” and dubbed Project Horizon, the plan would have used heavy-lift Saturn II rockets to place a crew of 12 on the Moon in pressurized underground modules. Abandoned within a year of its introduction, the Army’s Project Horizon was credited with providing some of the technological framework for the U.S. civilian Project Apollo. During the 1960s and 70s, both the Americans and Soviets moved ahead cautiously with lunarbase concepts. In the U.S., several studies employed surplus Apollo hardware for returning to the Moon. In the Soviet Union, the Zvezda (Star) concept envisaged six crewmen living in small modules. Ironically, after the first manned lunar landing in 1969, the national leadership for returning to the Moon was missing. The public is often blamed for this fact, but this writer blames it mostly on U.S. politicians. Public interest in space exploration has remnained strong since the 1970s.
WEDNESDAY July 22, 2009 further cutting payments to providers. But when Medicare payments are cut, providers contrive to do more billable services to keep up their revenue. So as underpayments increase, the government will have to force providers to ration care to hold down total payments, and penalize providers who earn too much. Underpayments by government health care programs are essentially a hidden tax on health care covered by private insurance. Because government underpays, providers overcharge private insurers to close the shortfall. This cost shift results in ever-higher insurance premiums, and struggling employers start thinking about simply dropping their employee coverage. This is not a workable model. The Obama-Kennedy plan is not single payer, because it allows private insurance to continue (under federal regulation). But it contains a "public option" program designed like Medicare. This is supposed to provide competition with private insurers. Since the ultimate goal of Obama, Kennedy and their allies is single payer, it is perfectly clear that government benefits and favoritism enjoyed by the government-sponsored "public option" plan will allow that plan to underprice its private competitors. Eventually employers will have no choice but to dump their employees into the government plan - even if they are charged a penalty for doing so. This is single payer on the installment plan. Obama recently remarked that "no one will take away" your current health plan, "no matter what". But a week later he amended that to say that the government won't take away your current plan - but you might lose your current plan because your employer, who owns your plan, might be forced to choose the cheaper "public option" plan. Obama and his allies also aim to solve the uninsured problem by mandating that every American enroll in a "qualified" insurance plan. Under the Obama-Kennedy bill, if you don't submit proof of enrollment, you'll be tracked down and fined until you do. The Obama-Kennedy plan would if enacted prove to have some annoying inconveniences, like rationing, waiting lines, maddening bureaucracies, penalties for non-enrollment, demoralized doctors and nurses, shabby facilities, obsolete technology, declining quality of care, and of course much higher taxation. But don't worry. President Obama and Sen. Kennedy can surely work those things out. John McClaughry is president of the Ethan Allen Institute in Vermont. In 1989, U.S. President George H.W. Bush showed his space leadership with the Space Exploration Initiative that called for a small lunar base by 2008. But with petty partisan politics in full swing, President Bill Clinton canceled his predecessor ’s initiative in 1992. (At least Clinton continued Reagan’s space-station plans since so much engineering work was already underway.) But a good idea rarely gets repressed for long: Bush’s lunar-return vision was revitalized in 2004 by the ex-president’s son, President George W. Bush. Hopefully, President Barak Obama, a Democrat, will continue America’s lunar leadership role, a role that inspires all Americans regardless of party affiliation. It looks like we’re finally getting back to the Moon—but we’re still keeping our fingers crossed. What’s in the Sky: This weekend, you can see what the Apollo 11 astronauts saw on their way back to Earth from the Moon in July 1969: the Summer Triangle. Look for the giant stars Vega, Deneb and Altair. As the sky darkens after dusk, three constellations become apparent. Thanks to J. Kirk Edwards for this week’s sky chart.

Renowned artist creates an original rail print Renowned Vermont artist Peter Huntoon created an original rail print during ArtHop in the Rutland Amtrak Station on Friday. This was a small walk away from the busy Center St. hosting Friday Night Live, an open air market and entertainment event. This original art work was given away by raffle ticket that were sold throughout Rutland County. This is the first event hosted by the Vermont Rail Action Network's Friends of Rutland Rail committee in their effort to improve ridership and passenger rail service out of Rutland, soon to Burlington! They were pleased to have the station open for Friday Night Live and ArtHop. Visit them on the web at: www.railvermont.org
Gold From page 2 “In 1880, a group of miners returned to the Plymouth Five Corners area and traced placer gold in Buffalo Creek to its source in a quartz vein high on the slope above the creek,” according to Pingree. “Two years later, the Rooks Mine was in operation.” Pingree has explored deep inside the abandoned shafts of the Rooks Mine (later known as the Fox Mine); while the mine is dangerous for amateur cavers to enter, even Pingree got spooked inside the mine a few years ago. A companion encountered unstable ground inside the mine’s vertical shaft. They quickly abandoned further exploration. Abandoned mines are more dangerous than many caves, according to Pingree. Pingree mapped most of the Rooks Mine’s remains. It was a big mine for its time—200 feet in length with both vertical and horizontal shafts. Parts of the mine are still shored up with 19th-century timbers. Even the remains of an ore car on rails can be seen. A large processing mill stood along the creek at the foot of the mine. Visitors can still glimpse some of the stonework of the old complex today. In 1884 the Rooks Mine was top news here since it was producing $50-ton ore. But things changed in 1887. The Rooks was bankrupt, and the last stage of the Vermont Gold Rush was over. While there are numerous test mine shafts that await dis-

covery in Vermont’s old Gold District, most were located by cavers since the 1980s. The largest Vermont gold mines were the Rooks Mine, the Dailey Hollow Gold Mine, the Quttaquechee Mine, the TGold Mine and the Taggart-Fagneau Mine. In time, frost action and ground-water seeping will obliterate Vermont’s historic gold mines from view. It doesn’t help that state historians have shown little interest in the period, while others seem not to want to glorify the state’s “dirty” mining past. But with the help of Rutland Rock and Mineral Club members and explorer and mine-enthusiast Rick Pingree, the memory of a time when Vermont gold fever seized locals and flatlanders alike will be kept alive a little while longer.

Seniors From page 1 an estimated $2 million a month. For these reasons, we brought community leaders together to learn how other states in the region have reached out to the senior population and to figure out ways to tackle the problem.” Over 77,000 Vermonters – 1 in 8 – currently participate in 3SquaresVT, bringing over $9.5 million in benefits into the state each month. At last week’s event, attendees listened to speakers from Rhode Island and Washington D.C. about additional program opportunities, waivers, and outreach strategies to further improve 3SquaresVT participation, specifically for the 13,000 eligible seniors they estimate are not participating in the program.
100 Years From page 1 in the early 20th century. It began providing renewable hydroelectric power in 1909. The 750-acre reservoir, and the land surrounding it, is owned by CVPS. A parking area and boat launch are leased by CVPS to the State of Vermont. Besides its role as CVPS’s largest hydro facility, the reservoir is usually considered by outdoor enthusiasts as being in the top tier of Vermont's pristine recreation sites. Seventeen square miles of mountainous terrain help drain fresh water into the reservoir. While it’s artificial, the reservoir is now a healthy habitat for dozens of species of birds, amphibians, reptiles, fish and mammals. As a home to bald eagles, ospreys, moose, beavers and loons, too, the reservoir is one of the few undeveloped lakes in Vermont.

How to ‘shop from home’ more often By Jill Cataldo CTW Features
L
ast week I introduced you to the concept of stockpiling groceries and spilled the beans on what’s hiding in my basement: a small-scale “grocery store” at home. Like many people, I’m always on the lookout for great deals. But unlike the typical shopper, I think nothing of buying 5, 10 or perhaps even 15 of an item when it is on sale. To really save money at the grocery store, shoppers need to break the habit of buying what they need each week and instead look beyond the current week’s needs. If shampoo is on sale for $2 and you have six $1.50 coupons, how many bottles should you buy? Six! While you might only need one bottle now, shampoo is an excellent item to stockpile. It has a long shelf life and is easy to store. Six bottles of shampoo will probably last your household the better portion of a year. At 50 cents each, a very low price, they’re a great deal. What if you decided to buy just two bottles? Not only would you miss out on the opportunity to save in the long run on this item, but you also would essentially be throwing money away in the form of the four coupons you chose not to use. Think ahead: after you use up your second bottle of shampoo, what will happen? You’ll head to the store when you need more shampoo. The chance is slim that it will be at its lowest sale price on the day you need to buy it. Your next bottle of shampoo may cost you $3.50 when it could have cost just 50 cents. And, instead of simply going to your stockpile and “shopping at home” for the next bottle, you might also have to make a special trip to the store. While we’ll always need to go to the store for fresh produce, dairy and bread, a large portion of the groceries we buy are easily stockpiled for later. Boxed foods, snack foods, canned foods and bottled beverages all store easily and have expiration dates
almost a year out from the time of purchase. Personal care products – such as shampoo, toothpaste, deodorant and shaving cream – have an even longer shelf life. And don’t forget household cleaners and paper products, both of which can be stored indefinitely. You don’t have to devote a By Jill Cataldo special area of your house to stockpiling. And you don’t need to stockpile on a large scale. If toothpaste is on sale, buy several tubes and store them under the sink. If trash bags and paper towels are on sale, store them in the garage on a shelf. I enjoy having a corner of my basement devoted to my pantry, but you can stockpile wherever you have the space. And remember, too, that while your stockpile grows, it’s also constantly in rotation. Old things come off the shelves as quickly as you add new items, just as they do at the regular grocery store. At one time I had 40 boxes of granola bars in my basement pantry, which elicited lots of jokes and comments from friends. But what they don’t realize is that my children are quite aware of Mom’s home pantry and they run downstairs and help themselves whenever they’d like a snack. So as the granola bars start to disappear into hungry little mouths, Mom may be bringing home cans of soup to take their place. And my stockpile continues to rotate and evolve. © CTW Features

Elms wins Ridge Runner Series WEST HAVEN—The promoter of Bear Ridge Speedway in New Hampshire pulled off his second big win of the season Sunday night, taking the checkered flag in the 50-lap Ridge Runner Series race at Devil's Bowl Speedway. The Ridge Runner Series brings together the budget sportsman from the Champlain Valley Racing Association, Bear Ridge and Glen Ridge Motorsports Park, but the series is turning into the C.V. Elms Benefit. Elms hadn't won a feature at the Bowl until this season, but now has a pair of 50lap wins under his belt. In all likelihood, Elms would have been content to finish third on Sunday night, as that's where he was running with 10 laps remaining in the 50-lapper. But a caution changed everything. The final yellow flag flew on lap 40, and after four caution laps, the green fell again, with Jack Swinton setting the pace. Swinton and Derrick McGrew had already kept the Devil's Bowl fans thoroughly entertained. After starting on the front row, the duo put on a whale of a race. McGrew grabbed the lead on lap three and stayed out front for the next 34 laps, but Swinton regained the lead on lasp 39. Elms, who had started eighth, had joined the lead pack
early and was right in the thick of things, running either second or third for most of the feature. Following the final caution, McGrew moved back out in front on lap 45, and Elms finally worked his way around Swinton with two to go. The next time around, he swept past McGrew for the lead and hit the finish line with a 0.494-second advantage over McGrew. Swinton was right behind McGrew in third, with Jack Gentile fourth and Gary Siemons fifth. Walt Brownell, who has been stringing together top-five finishes all year, recorded his third win of the 2009 campaign in the 20-lap pro-street stock feature. Brownell took the lead on lap six and easily outran Cale Kneer and Lori Langevin to get the win. Mike Clark picked up his second win of the year in the limited feature. Clark, who won on opening night, used a late caution to take the lead away from Dave Emigh and left Emigh and Bill Duprey to battle for second. Duprey finished in the runner-up spot, beating Emigh to the finish line by a couple of feet. Kayla Bryant was victorious in the mini-stock feature, and Andy Smith was first across the finish line in the Duke stock feature.
Devil's Bowl will return to action on Sunday, July 19, with all divisions in action on Kids Night, which will feature kiddie rides and a number of giveaways. Racing will start at 6:45 p.m. BUDGET SPORTSMAN (RIDGE RUNNER SERIES 50 LAPS): C.V. ELMS, Derrick McGrew, Jack Swinton, Jack Gentile, Gary Siemons, Hunter Bates, Anthony Warren, D.J.

Rutland’s Comstock leads Vermont past N.H. By Frederick Pockette Rutland’s own Mark Comstock poured in 18 points last Saturday, with a dozen of them coming in the second half, to lead the Vermont seniors past New Hampshire 96-85 victory in the Merchants Bank Rotary Twin State Classic. Comstock, who was named Vermont player of the game, had help from two Burlington Seahorses Clancy Rugg and Shane Norris. Rugg poured in 14 points and hauled down a doxen rebounds for a double-double, while his teammate Norris matched his 14 points. Jason Gray from Thetford added another 12 points to the Green Mountain State’s 11 point win. Spinners Take Two of Three From Monsters The Boston Red Sox short season A affiliate, the Lowell Spinners came into Burlington last weekend and took two of three from the hometown Vermont Lake Monsters. In the series opener last Friday night Lowell pounded out seven extra-base hits, including back-to-back home runs, and took advantage of five Vermont errors to score six unearned runs in a 10-3 victory over the Lake Monsters. The Spinners back-to-back home runs came from Chris McGuiness and Michael Almanzar to lead off the fourth inning and give Lowell a 2-1 lead. They added three more runs in the sixth. Shannon Wilkerson belted an RBI double and Roberto Feliz added an RBI single, for a 5-1 advantage. Lowell then scored five runs, all unearned, on just one hit in the eighth inning for a 10-1 lead. The Spinners used two hit batters and three Vermont errors to score the five runs in the inning, which was capped off by a Joantoni Garcia three-run triple to right center.
Vermont had taken an early 1-0 lead on when Francisco Soriano walked, stole second and scored on a J.J. Sferra RBI single. But that was all the offense that the Lake Monsters could muster off Lowell starter Yeiper Castillo (2-1), who allowed just the one run on four hits with two walks and five strikeouts over six innings for the victory. The Lake Monsters got their final two runs of the night in the eighth inning on a J.P. Ramirez RBI groundout and a run-scoring wild pitch. Vermont was held to just six hits on the night and have just 13 hits in its last 27 innings of play at Centennial Field. Four Spinners had two-hit nights, including Almanzar who also scored three runs, while Wilkerson was 2-for-5 with two runs and two doubles for Lowell. Jack McGeary (1-1) allowed two runs (the back-to-back Spinner home runs) on five hits with two walks and six strikeouts over five innings to take the loss for Vermont. Sferra and Sean Nicol both had two hits for the Lake Monsters. Then following a rainout on Saturday the squads split a doubleheader on Sunday. In the opener Lowell starter Jose Alvarez (2-1) allowed just three hits in six scoreless innings to lead the Spinners to a 4-0 shut out win. Lake Monsters starter Kyle Morrison (0-2) gave up three runs (two earned) on five hits over five innings to take the game one loss. The Spinners scored the first run of the opener in the second inning on a two-base error by right fielder J.R. Higley, who the previous inning had made a great catch as he caught a foul ball just before flipping over the fence into the batting cage area behind the Lake Monsters clubhouse. Lowell added three more runs in the sixth inning on a Michael
SPORTS • RUTLAND TRIBUNE - 9 Almanzar RBI single and a Ronald Bermudez two-run double to seal the 4-0 victory. Vermont avoided being swept by scoring three runs in the bottom of the sixth inning to pull out a 3-1 win in the series finale. The Lake Monsters were held scoreless for the first 12 innings of the doubleheader and found themselves trailing 1-0 after the Spinners scored an unearned run in the top of the sixth inning of the nightcap before rallying. Sean Nicol reached to leadoff the bottom of the sixth on a fielding error by second baseman Drew Dominguez, then scored the tying run as J.P. Ramirez rocketed an RBI double to left center. Ramirez moved to third on a Dan Killian fly out and scored the eventual winning run on a wild pitch from losing pitcher Pedro Perez. Vermont added an insurance run on a J.J. Sferra RBI single to score Dani Arias, who had singled and then stole both second and third. Reliever Clayton Dill hit Tom DiBenedetto and walked Dominguez to start the seventh inning, but then struck out the final three batters of the inning to secure the Lake Monsters win and picked up his second save of the season. Both starting pitchers in game two tossed five scoreless innings as Lowell’s Cesar Cabral gave up three hits with three strikeouts and Vermont’s Mitchell Clegg gave up two hits with four strikeouts. Steven Stewart (1-0), who gave up the unearned run in the top of the sixth, picked up the win for the Lake Monsters, while Arias and Sferra both had two hits apiece. The doubleheader split leaves both Vermont and Lowell with identical 12-11 records and two games behind Oneonta for firstplace in the Stedler Division. After an off day on Monday, the Lake Monsters opened a six-game road trip at Jamestown tTuesday. Vermont returns home for a three-game series with the Brooklyn Cyclones beginning on Monday, July 20.
