After last week’s column item on the indus- trial accident at Confusion Hill I got a call from Ed Pucci, spokesman at MCM Construction who was still not very forthcoming and would only confirm that the accident took place. He would not tell me anything about who the worker was, or where he was from or the nature of his injuries. He said he was airlifted only because it would be impossible to drive an ambulance to the site - implying I guess that the injuries weren’t as bad as the phrase “airlifting” usually denotes. He did say that the accident happened when the injured man - the foreman on the site - was on a part of bridge segment being locked into place, and he didn’t put the safety pins back in place properly and the bridge section fell and he slid down it to the ground. I got the following letter from local resident Lee Bradford last week: “One of the reasons I love Ukiah is the home town friendliness. The store owners are our friends.

A’S 4 | MARINERS 3 (MON.) A’s come from behind for win A’s snap eight-game home skid against Mariners OAKLAND — One week in the big leagues and Wes Bankston already looks comfortable. Bankston hit his first career home run, a two-run shot off Seattle starter Jarrod Washburn in the fifth inning, helping Dana Eveland win his third straight decision as the Oakland Athletics snapped an eight- game home losing skid to the Mariners with a 4-3 win. “To finally get here, it’s been an amazing past week,” said Bankston, who spent six seasons in the minors before getting called up by Oakland last Wednesday when shortstop Bobby Crosby went on the disabled list. “All the hard work you go through to get to this point, it’s pretty special. Now I just have to work even harder to stay here.” Eveland (7-5) picked up the win despite a shaky outing. The right-hander gave up three runs in the first and pitched with runners in scoring position in five of the first six innings. He left after allowing nine hits over 5 1-3 innings. The A’s made up for their starting pitcher’s strug- gles by turning three double plays, getting help in the fifth when Adrian Beltre failed to retouch third base after rounding the bag on a fly out by Kenji Johjima. Rookie center fielder Carlos Gonzalez also made a strong play to throw out Willie Bloomquist at the plate in the second after Raul Ibanez singled. But it was Bankston, the 24-year-old slugger with 106 home runs in the minors including 14 for Triple-A Sacramento this year, who provided the game’s snap- shot moment with his two-run home run off Washburn that helped rally Oakland to the win. Bankston, who also doubled off the wall in center and scored in the second inning, connected on the first pitch he saw from Washburn in the fifth over the wall in left-center to tie the game at 3. Two outs later Ryan Sweeney drove in Gregorio Petit with the eventual game-winning run for the A’s, who hadn’t beaten the Mariners at the Coliseum since July 5, 2007. “It felt good. It was exciting, especially for it to be a tight game,” said Bankston, who raised his averaged File Photo to .391 since being called up. “In that situation I’m A’s starting pitcher Dana Eveland delivers in Monday night’s game against the M’s. Eveland started out slow but held looking for something up so I can drive it. Fortunately on late as his offense came back from a 3-0 deficit to give Eveland (7-5) the win. See A'S, Page 7
