Aeros win
ALTOONA, Pa. -- The Akron Aeros scored six runs in the first inning and withstood an Altoona rally to beat the Curve 11-6 Friday night, taking a 2-1 lead in their best-of-five Eastern League division series.
The Curve scored six runs in the fifth to get within 8-6. Aeros reliever Jose Vargas struck out Brett Roneberg and Jose Castillo to end the rally.
Vargas got the win after starter Kyle Denney gave up five runs over 4 1-3 innings.
Altoona starter John VanBenschoten failed to make it out of the first, allowing six runs on six hits.
Ryan Church's three-run double started Akron's scoring, and Victor Valencia added a two-run double later in the first. Tyler Minges homered for Akron in the fifth.
Cavaliersstaying home
CLEVELAND -- The Cleveland Cavaliers canceled plans to hold training camp at the University of Toledo after the NBA ruled that a scrimmage -- with fans paying $6 to $8 to see rookie LeBron James -- would have constituted a ninth preseason game.
"Without the open scrimmage event, the University of Toledo and the Cavaliers mutually decided that it did not remain practical for us to use Savage Hall for the four days of training camp," Cavs general manager Jim Paxson said.
Only eight exhibition games are allowed under league rules.
The scrimmage was to raise money for the university, and the team plans to make an unspecified donation, Paxson said.
Players with fewer than four years of experience will report to camp at Gund Arena on Sept. 30. Veterans report Oct. 3. The Cavaliers' preseason opener is a road game Oct. 7 against Detroit.

COLUMBUS -- The Columbus Blue Jackets signed defenseman Todd Rohloff to a one-year contract on Friday.
Rohloff, 29, spent the past three seasons in the Washington Capitals organization. He has played in only 16 NHL games, tallying one assist and 14 penalty minutes.
A Miami of Ohio product, Rohloff had two goals and 10 assists in 64 games last season with Portland of the American Hockey League.
