ELYRIA — A man LifeFlighted from the Elyria Foundry this morning has “pretty serious” but nonlife-threatening  injuries to his arm, which had become stuck in a large piece of machinery, according to Elyria Fire Capt. Joe Pronesti.

Pronesti said firefighters were called to the foundry at 7:40 this morning, but Charles Bolin, 26, had actually been trapped “for some time” before anyone heard him screaming for help. Once firefighters arrived, Bolin was free in 36 minutes, Pronesti said.

Bolin was taken in an ambulance across the street to Basil’s restaurant, where he was loaded into a LifeFlight helicopter to be flow to MetroHealth Medical Center in Cleveland. His condition was not immediately available.

Bolin had been doing some maintenance work on the machinery when it came on for some reason, Pronesti said.

Pronesti commended the firefighters who freed Bolin for working well in what he called “a very tight space.”

“The hardest part was getting guys in there,” Pronesti said. “Our extrication tools are kind of large, so they had to do some real thinking in there.”

CHICAGO — The last time Jake Peavy pitched at U.S. Cellular Field he left in agony, his career jeopardy. Almost a year later, he showed the form that won him the Cy Young Award in 2007.

Peavy pitched a three-hitter in his home debut this season, outdueling Justin Masterson and making Adam Dunn’s sacrifice fly in the first inning stand up to lift the Chicago White Sox to a 1-0 victory over the Cleveland Indians on Wednesday night.

The 29-year old right-hander was spectacular in his first appearance at U.S. Cellular Field since July 6, 2010, when he left with detached a muscle in his right shoulder.

“I walked off that same mound the last time I pitched here and I felt the worst pain I’ve ever felt in my life,” Peavy said.

Peavy (1-0) struck out eight to cool off a Cleveland lineup that scored 31 runs in its three previous games. He had his fifth career shutout and ninth complete game. He only allowed one runner past first base, did not walk a batter and threw 111 pitches.

Peavy finished the 2-hour, 1-minute game by striking out Michael Brantley and Asdrubal Cabrera.

“I don’t know what to expect coming off this surgery and I don’t know how good I can be and if I can get back, but that’s a lot of what I used to do tonight, but I’m just going to grind it out,” Peavy said. “I can tell you this, every fifth day I take the ball, or six-seven (days) with this rotation, I expect to win and that’s the bottom line.”

.

Since being traded to the White Sox on July 31, 2009, Peavy is 11-6 in 22 starts.

“I got traded to be the guy you saw tonight and I am going to do everything I can do in the next two years to be that guy,” Peavy said. “I told you guys this is the healthiest I have been in Chicago.”

After the game, Peavy was greeted by Dr. Tony Romeo, who performed the surgery.

“You have surgery that’s deemed experimental. You just don’t know where your career can go from there,” Peavy said.

Masterson (5-2) pitched his third career complete game. He allowed one run on five hits. He struck out eight with two walks.

“It’s just a case that two pitchers are going out there battling. He’s the story of the night. He did a great job out there. Throwing strikes, kept his pitch count low, got that complete game. We battled but he kept us down,” Masterson said. “I was able to keep it close enough, except for that one in the first. Unfortunately, he was just a little bit better.”

Juan Pierre led off the game with a double and advanced to third on 44-year old Omar Vizquel’s single. Dunn then hit a sacrifice fly.

“Hats off to Jake Peavy. It’s still disappointing. What sticks in your mind is that first run. I was good, but that one run,” Masterson said.

Peavy was making his second start having surgery 10 months ago. In his first start, he gave up four runs and seven hits over six innings during a 6-4 win in Los Angeles last Wednesday.

Shin-Soo Choo was the only hitter that gave Peavy problems. He was 2 for 4 with two singles. Peavy got Travis Buck to ground out to end the seventh, stranding Choo at second.

In the eighth, Peavy got help from Brent Lillibridge, who made a sliding catch on the left-center warning track to rob Orlando Cabrera of extra bases.

COLUMBUS — A new poll shows President Barack Obama’s approval rating in Ohio is little changed following the killing of Osama bin Laden.

The Quinnipiac University survey released today shows that 49 percent of Ohio voters like the job the president is doing, while 45 percent disapprove. Obama’s approval was 47 percent in a similar poll two months ago.

Quinnipiac’s Peter Brown said in a statement that Ohio has answered the question of whether there’s a “bin Laden bounce” for the president. He says the White House can’t be happy with the answer.

The state’s voters split 47 percent to 47 percent on whether Obama deserves a second term.

Pollsters surveyed 1,379 registered voters by phone from May 10 through Monday. The poll has a margin of error of 2.6 percentage points.

Cleveland’s Manny Acta and Toronto’s John Farrell will be coaches for Texas’ Ron Washington, the American League manager at the All-Star Game in Phoenix on July 12.

Indians’ Drennen suspended 50 games

Cleveland Indians minor league outfielder John Drennen has been suspended for 50 games after a positive test.

The commissioner’s office says Drennen tested positive for the banned female fertility drug Clomiphene. The drug can be used to boost testosterone as part of a steroids cycle.

Drennen was penalized Tuesday under baseball’s minor league drug program.

A 24-year-old from Honolulu, Drennen is batting .256 with three homers and 15 RBIs at Double-A Akron of the Eastern League.

There have been 26 suspensions this year under the minor league program. While there have not been any suspensions under the major league program, Manny Ramirez retired rather than face a 100-game ban following a second violation.

Royals to promote top pitching prospect

The Royals plan to bring up Danny Duffy to start against the Texas Rangers tonight in his major league debut.

Duffy, a 22-year-old left-hander, is 3-1 with a 3.00 ERA in seven starts and 36 innings at Triple-A Omaha. He is among many highly rated prospects the Royals have been bringing along in a minor league system rated among the best in baseball.

The Royals will select his contract from the Triple-A Storm Chasers.

On Monday night, following a 19-1 loss to Cleveland, the Royals announced that right-hander Vin Mazzaro was being optioned to Omaha and left-hander Everett Teaford was being recalled.
