REDS AVOID SWEEP BY CUBS

CINCINNATI — The Reds got power from some unlikely players to Frosh earn playing time complete a 7-3 homestand. Devin Mesoraco hit his first home run in more than a month, and Jack Hannahan added his first career pinch-hit homer as Cincinnati avoid- ed a sweep by the last-place Chicago Cubs with a 6-0 win on Wednesday. Mesoraco, hitless in his previous 13 at bats, had 3 to lead the Reds. The homestand included a 3-1 record against St. Louis and three-game sweep of NL West Division-leading Los Angeles. “It felt like I got the monkey off my back,” Hannahan said. “The last two years, I hit home runs on opening day. It was huge.” Hannahan didn’t get many pinch-hit opportunities in the American League. “This is all new to me,” he said. The hit turned a close game into a rout. “It wasn’t easy,” Cincinnati man- ager Dusty Baker said. “Everybody was happy for Hannahan. It was big to get those runs.” Cincinnati entered the game in third place in the Central, three games behind the division-leading Cardinals and two behind Pittsburgh. After winning the first two games of the three-game series, the Cubs were in position for their first sweep of the Reds in Cincinnati since May 2001. Mike Leake (13-6) threw 107 pitches in 5.2 innings en route to a career high in wins, despite humid conditions and an 84-degree temperature at game time.

You can pick up interesting Brian T, Erik J, Beau P, and items and information if you shop or make a point to talk to Timothy D for contributing to hungry? people you encounter along the way. Love relationships look today’s Ledge. Check out The Daily Iowan’s positive. Dining Guide TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You may be faced with personal ad- justments, but try not to act irrationally. Anger won’t solve what’s bothering you. Address issues tactfully and with thoughtful solutions. Showing compassion and understanding will make you a better person.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Hard work will pay the bills. Stay away from fast cash schemes or people trying to take advantage of you or your skills. Focus on home, family, and how you can cut costs and lower your overhead. Use brains, not brawn.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Plan to do something you enjoy, or spend time with someone you find entertaining or fun to be with. Expand your interests. Sign up for something that will help you feel good about yourself and the direction in which you are heading.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Problems will surface if you neglect your chores or disappoint someone. Physical injury will put a damper on your ability to live up to your promises. Your best option is to be upfront and nurture an important relationship.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Take action, offer solutions, and most of all, stay out of trouble. Emotional issues will surface if you aren’t willing to compromise; try new things or spend time with someone who loves you and needs a little attention.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Don’t stifle your feelings, especially when it comes to love and romance. Share your thoughts, and you will find unusual ways to make your personal life unique, affordable, and stress-free. Let your intuition lead the way.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Help is on the way. Don’t let pride cause you to fall short of what’s being asked of you. Positive personal changes will pay off and can lead to a better standard of living and surroundings conducive to greater cash flow.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): A money idea you have will be well-received. Look for partners who have something to contrib- ute, and avoid those wanting to take advantage of your talent, skills, and expertise. Take your time, and choose someone unique.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Don’t wait for someone to take over. Use your inventive imagination to initiate whatever it takes to get your idea up and running. Someone you have worked with in the past will offer an unusual outlet for what you have to offer.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Look over pending settlements, con- tracts, or legal matters, and you will find a loophole or informa- tion that can help you bring them to a head. Money is heading your way from an unusual source. Your love life shows greater promise.
