Thousands of FirstEnergy customers without power in Northeast Ohio

CLEVELAND, Ohio (WOIO) – Thousands of FirstEnergy customers are experiencing power outages during Wednesday’s excessive heat.

The majority of the outages are located in Lakewood, Berea, Olmsted Falls and Olmsted Township.

FirstEnergy release the following statement about the outages:

We understand how disruptive and frustrating a power outage can be — especially during a heat wave — and we sincerely appreciate our customers’ patience as crews work to restore service. The outages in the Olmsted Falls area were caused by a pole fire, along with an equipment issue at a nearby substation. We have restored power to about half of the customers impacted and our crews will be working around the clock to restore power to the remaining customers.

Rangers capitalize on costly Guardians mistake, extend winning streak to six

Rangers capitalize on costly Guardians mistake, extend winning streak to six

Jacob deGrom pitched seven strong innings and the Texas Rangers took advantage of a bone-headed play by Cleveland rookie outfielder Cooper Ingle on Tuesday night to beat the Guardians 4-2 and extend their winning streak to six games.

DeGrom (7-5) allowed a two-run homer to Kyle Manzardo in the first before turning dominant. The right-hander gave up a leadoff single in the second before retiring 18 of the next 19 batters, improving to 4-0 in June.

Joc Pederson hit a two-run homer and Josh Jung added a solo shot as the AL West-leading Rangers improved to 7-2 on their road trip.

They got a big assist in the seventh inning when Ingle, making just his second major league start in the outfield, lost track of the number of outs and tossed a live ball into the stands, allowing the Rangers to take a 3-2 lead.

With a runner at second and one out, Ingle caught a routine fly ball hit by Rangers left fielder Alejandro Osuna for the second out. Thinking it was the third out, Ingle looked at the ball in his glove before throwing it over the protective netting to fans.

The umpires immediately ruled the ball was dead, and Ezequiel Duran was awarded home plate.

Pederson connected for his 14th homer — and 11th since May 26 — off Tanner Bibee (2-9) to tie it 2-all in the third.

Jung’s ninth homer made it 4-2 in the eighth.

Manzardo gave the Guardians a 2-0 lead in the first with his 10th homer.

Rangers shortstop Corey Seager was pulled before his at-bat in the first inning because of back discomfort. The five-time All-Star missed 19 games earlier this season with back spasms.
