San Diego (AP) — Michael Wacha pitched six solid innings and Stephen Piscotty homered twice and drove in five runs to help the St. Louis Cardinals avoid a three-game sweep by beating the San Diego Padres 10-3 Sunday. Jason Heyward had three hits as St. Louis averted getting swept for the first time this season. Wacha (15-4) got his fourth straight win, allowing one run and four hits while striking out three and walking two.
After being shut out on Saturday night, the Cardinals scored four in the first against rookie Colin Rea, who was making his third major-league start. San Diego made two errors in the first inning and the Cardinals capitalized with three hits, including Piscotty’s two-run triple.
Rea (2-1) struggled early and made a throwing error in the first that contributed to the Cardinals’ rally. The 25-year-old Rea gave up five runs — four earned — over four innings.
A Police Officer in Council Bluffs was bitten and had blood spat on them while attempted to subdue an out of control suspect late Saturday evening. Authorities say the incident began when officers were called to 1320 N. 21st Street in Council Bluffs at around 7:50-p.m., Saturday, for a reported domestic disturbance.
The female victim, Jackie Sime met officers outside in the front yard and the suspect, Dean Sime refused to exit the house and yelled out to Officers to shoot him. Officers confirmed that a Domestic Assault occurred and while speaking with Dean Sime, who was still in the doorway holding a small chainsaw, Officers observed Sime slam his head several times into the front door eventually knocking himself out.
While Sime was knocked out Officers entered the home, secured the saw and called for Medics, due to Sime having a laceration on his head from his slamming his head into the door. Officers began gathering information regarding the call and Medics arrived. While Medics were treating Sime, he lunged for an Officer’s duty weapon, the Officer was able to turn his gun away and Sime had ahold of the Officer’s cruiser mic, which was attached to his duty belt. Another Officer was attempting to restrain Sime and was bit in the left calf, Sime was tasered by a third Officer and Sime was immediately handcuffed.
While Sime was being turned over, he spat blood in the face and on the neck of one of the Officers. Sime refused medical assistance and was taken to Corrections, the Officer who was bitten and spit on went to Mercy Hospital for treatment of possible exposure. The Officer’s left calf had redness and slight swelling from the bite, the Officer was released back to full duty.
Sime faces several charges, including: Disarming a peace officer; Assault on a Peace Officer; Interference with Official Acts, and Serious Domestic Assault.
