GREENWOOD, Ind. -- Wayne Williams kept a pledge he and his father made to each other and shared a moment theyd both been waiting for all their lives.The North Carolina man drove to his fathers gravesite in Indiana to listen to the Chicago Cubs win Game 7 of the World Series. Wearing a Joe Maddon replica jersey and a Cubs cap hed recently purchased, Williams listened to the Cubs 10-inning, 8-7 victory over the Cleveland Indians on his smartphone Wednesday night at his fathers grave in the military section of Greenwood Forest Lawn Cemetery in suburban Indianapolis.Williams told WTHR-TV (http://bit.ly/2fHsbEm ) he and his father had a pact: When the Cubs got into the World Series again, they would listen to the games together.His father, also named Wayne Williams, was a Navy veteran. He died of cancer in 1980 at age 53. Williams said he knew on Sunday night what he would have to do if the Cubs kept their title hopes alive.If they win tomorrow, I have to be heading out the next morning, he said, noting that his wife supported it fully.The 68-year-old retired customer trainer said unlit roads made the trip a little difficult. He also said trying to get to his fathers gravesite required as few stops as possible if he was to make it by the first pitch.Cemetery workers kept the gates open for Williams, who was greeted by TV news crews as he took his spot and tuned in.As Williams listened, he said his wife sent text messages saying, Theyre killing me. Theyre killing me.Finally, after 10 innings and a rain delay, the Cubs rallied to take the lead and held off the last bid for a Cleveland rally. Williams, a Cubs W flag draped on his fold-out chair, said his celebration was subdued.I just kind of said `We did it, like I had anything to do with it, he said. I know how much he would have enjoyed it.As he headed back to his home in Fuquay-Varina, North Carolina, Williams said he would watch a recording of the game. By then, he said he thinks the idea of the World Series championship will have sunken in.Ill be able to work my way through it, he said.---Information from: WTHR-TV, http://www.wthr.com/ Detroit Tigers Pro Shop .

BUDAPEST, Hungary -- The head of Hungarys swimming federation should resign because, among other issues, poor training conditions havent improved, three-time Olympic champion Katinka Hosszu said Tuesday.The federation rejected her claims.Hosszu, coached by American husband Shane Tusup, has clashed with Hungarian officials before. In the latest criticism, she wrote on her Facebook page that federation president Tamas Gyarfas is Hungarian swimmings most harmful factor and rejected his comments that everything was fine between them.Tamas Gyarfas was the first one who said in 2008 that I should quit swimming and retire, said the 27-year-old Hosszu. If it was up to him, Hungary would have returned from the Rio Olympics with three fewer gold medals and one less silver medal.Hosszu also faulted the federation for taking undue credit for the results of Hungarian swimmers; said the organizations decision-making process was undemocratic; and implied that financial pressures were involved in the election of its leadership.They are working to have people believe that there is no life outside the system, Hosszu wrote. This is simply laughable. I myself am the living example that there is life after the Hungarian Swimming Federation. In fact, thats when there really is (life).In a lengthy reply to Hoosszu, the federation said it was baffled by her comments, adding that officials had been unable to have substantive talks with her since October 2015, when they said their relationship deteriorated after Hosszu declined to take part in a promotional video.dddddddddddd.The federations leadership ... is baffled by Katinka Hosszus latest comments, the federation said, while praising her results and denying that Gyarfas had told her to quit in 2008. The accusations in her serious criticism are equally unfounded.While calling it a gift of fate that Hosszu and Tusup had met, the federation said swimming officials and competition organizers were increasingly critical of Tusups behavior, with most clashes occurring due to financial conflicts.Professionalism is fully recognized in the sporting world, but Shane Tusups behavior and style have become increasingly unacceptable in world swimming, the federation said.Hosszu won three gold medals and a silver medal at the Rio de Janeiro Olympics in August, holds several world records in individual medleys and was named FINA female swimmer of the year in 2014 and 2015.Budapest will host swimmings world championships in 2017.
