LAUSANNE, Switzerland -- Nine more athletes, including six medal winners, were
retroactively disqualified from the 2008 Beijing Olympics on Wednesday after
failing retests of their doping samples.
Joc Pederson Jersey .The International
Olympic Committee announced the decisions in the latest sanctions imposed on
athletes whose stored samples came back positive after being retested with
improved methods.Four athletes were stripped of silver medals and two of bronze
medals in weightlifting, wrestling and womens steeplechase. All six athletes
come from former Soviet countries -- Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, Uzbekistan and
Kazakhstan -- and all tested positive for steroids.The IOC stores doping samples
for 10 years to allow them to be reanalyzed when enhanced techniques become
available. The IOC recorded a total of 98 positive cases in recent resting of
samples from Beijing and the 2012 London Olympics.Stripped of silver medals
Wednesday were freestyle wrestlers Soslan Tigiev of Uzbekistan (66-74 kilogram
division) and Taimuraz Tigiyev of Kazakhstan (84-96 kg) and weightlifters Olha
Korobka of Ukraine (75 kg) and Andrei Rybakov of Belarus (85 kg).Its the second
time Tigiev has been stripped of an Olympic medal for doping. He lost his bronze
medal from the 74 kg event at the London Games after failing a drug test.The IOC
stripped Beijing bronze medals on Wednesday from Russian steeplechaser Ekaterina
Volkova and Belarusian weightlifter Anastasia Novikova (53 kg).The IOC asked the
international weightlifting, wrestling and track and field federations to modify
the Olympic results and consider any further sanctions against the athletes.
Decisions on reallocating the medals have not been finalized.The IOC said all
six medalists tested positive for the steroid turinabol. Rybakov and Novikova
also tested positive for stanozolol. Both substances are traditional steroids
with a history dating back decades. The new IOC tests used a technique that
could detect the use of those drugs going back weeks and months, rather than
just days.Also disqualified Wednesday were Cubas Wilfredo Martinez, who finished
fifth in the mens long jump; Nigerian-born Spaniard Josephine Onyia, who was
eliminated in the semifinals of the womens 100-meter hurdles; and weightlifter
Sardar Hasanov of Azerbaijan, who competed but did not finish in the mens 62-kg
division.The IOC said Hasanov tested positive for turinabol, Martinez for the
diuretic and masking agent acetazolamide, and Onyia for the stimulant
methylhexanamine.Last week, the IOC announced that Russian weightlifter Apti
Aukhadov had been stripped of his silver medal from the London Olympics on
Tuesday after testing positive for turinabol and drostanolone.

MILWAUKEE -- In command through six innings, Cincinnati Reds pitcher Anthony
DeSclafani looked to nail down his first win since late August.Things quickly
turned sour in the seventh for DeSclafani against the Milwaukee Brewers on
Friday night. He left after loading the bases with no outs. All three runners
would eventually score in the inning as the Brewers rallied for a 5-4
victory.(DeSclafani) was so good, so efficient, very few mistakes in those first
six innings, Cincinnati manager Bryan Price said. He was the right guy to be out
there. It was a tough way to lose.An angry DeSclafani had little to say after
the game.I guess it just got away from me. I just (was bad) there in that
seventh inning, he said.Chris Carter homered, Ryan Braun delivered a late clutch
hit and the Brewers turned their second triple play of the season.Carter hit his
38th home run of the season, a career high, leading off the second against
DeSclafani (8-4).In the first inning, Jose Peraza singled under the glove of
Milwaukee third baseman Jonathan Villar and Scott Schebler reached on an error
by Villar. With the runners in motion, Joey Votto hit a shot down the first base
line off Zach Davies that Carter snagged, taking away an extra base hit. Carter
stepped on first and then lobbed a throw to shortstop Orlando Arcia, who stepped
on second for the third out.Price said the runners were in motion in an effort
to provide a much-needed offensive spark.The one thing that cant happen is
hitting a line drive right at an infielder, he said.The Brewers turned a triple
play at home on April 29 against Miami and have eight in franchise
history.Peraza put the Reds in front with a three-run homer, his third of the
season, with one out in the fifth.The Brewers scored in the sixth on Carters RBI
groundout to cut the lead to 3-2.After the Brewers loaded the bases off
DeSclafani, Scooter Gennett drew a walk off reliever Tony Cingrani to tie the
score. Milwaukeee regained the lead when Braun followed with a two-run single
off Blake Wood.
Enrique Hernandez Jersey. .Brent Suter (2-1)
retired the only batter he faced to get the victory.Tyler Thornburg gave up a
run in the ninth but notched his 13th save in 18 tries.GROWING PAINSWith about
half of their starts over the last two years made by rookies, the Reds have
faced challenges in remaining mentally sharp, Price said. Sometimes its how you
lose, he said. If you are down frequently early enough, which was the case last
year, its a challenge to get guys excited to come to the ballpark and play when
you are down by three or four or five runs after three innings on a consistent
basis. We havent had that problem as much this year, but weve still been
challenged somewhat by the lack of pitching depth in our system.TRAINERS
ROOMReds: Price said LHP Brandon Finnegan will start the series finale on
Sunday. RHP Homer Bailey (biceps) had been considered after throwing a bullpen
session on Tuesday. Im just not ready to commit that (Bailey) is in the
rotation, Price said. We just havent gotten to that point yet.Brewers:
Pinch-hitter Jake Elmore appeared to get hit on the left hand while attempting
to bunt in the fifth inning. He then stumbled out of the box and fell to the
ground. He gingerly hopped on one leg after getting up before slowly walking off
the field with a team trainer at his side.UP NEXTReds: Dan Straily (13-8, 3.83
ERA) is 2-0 with a 1.77 ERA in three starts against the Brewers this season.
Straily has nine wins since the All-Star break, tied for the most in the
National League.Brewers: Taylor Jungmann (0-4, 8.34) will make his first start
since being recalled from Double-A Biloxi on Sept. 6. Jungmann, whose last start
for the Brewers came on April 28, is 0-7 with a 9.35 ERA over his last 10 starts
for Milwaukee.
