NEWTON, Iowa (AP) — Will Power won the pole for Sunday’s IndyCar race at Iowa Speedway. This is his fourth pole of the season. Power was fastest in Saturday’s single-car, two-lap runs on the oval. J.R. Hildebrand qualified second, followed by Helio Castroneves, Ed Carpenter and Indianapolis 500 winner Takuma Sato.
Series leader Scott Dixon will start 17th after a disappointing qualifying run on the oval of just under nine-tenths of a mile. Power has already won twice this season. He will try to give Team Penske its first win in Iowa in 11 tries.
A few first round tournament pig-tail games will be played in high school baseball on Saturday. All start times are set for 7:00pm unless otherwise noted.

ST. LOUIS (AP) — The St. Louis Cardinals have activated outfielder Dexter Fowler from the 10-day disabled list. The 31-year-old Fowler missed 12 games with a right heel spur. He was in the starting lineup batting third and playing center field Friday night against the New York Mets.
Fowler signed an $82.5 million, five-year free agent deal with St. Louis in December. He is hitting .245 with 13 home runs and 35 RBIs. He is second on the team in homers and runs scored (40).
To make room for Fowler, the Cardinals optioned outfielder Jose Martinez to Triple-A Memphis.
