I’M STEVEN ALBRITTON AND I’M KELLY RIPPIN. SO IF YOU’VE GOT PLANS TO BE OUTSIDE FOR GAME TWO, YOU’RE STAYING UP LATE. YOU’VE GOT YOUR SLEEP. LOGGED RANDI. WE GOT TO TALK ABOUT WHERE YOU COULD WATCH THAT GAME OUTSIDE. A GREAT OPTION THIS EVENING. IT’S GOING TO BE REALLY COMFORTABLE ANYWHERE THIS EVENING. HUMIDITY STAYS LOW SO THE AFTERNOONS ARE HOT, BUT THE MORNINGS AND THE EVENINGS ARE PRETTY GREAT. IF YOU LIKE FALL WEATHER, THAT’S YOUR BEST CHANCE TO GET OUTSIDE EARLY AND THEN LATER INTO THE EVENING. 61 RIGHT NOW IN CINCINNATI, HEAD NORTH HAMILTON ALL THE WAY DOWN TO 53. THAT TEMPERATURE MATCHED BY WILMINGTON EARLY THIS MORNING. SO ANOTHER KIND OF CLEAR AND CRISP START TO THE DAY. BUT WE ARE HEADED TO SEE TEMPERATURES THAT ARE GOING TO BE ABOUT TEN DEGREES ABOVE WHERE THEY SHOULD BE. SO IT’S OCTOBER, AND THE ONLY THING THAT’S GIVING FALL VIBES IS THE ORANGE COLOR TO THE MAP. THIS THIS MORNING, 83 DEGREES EXPECTED THIS AFTERNOON. SO LET’S TAKE A LOOK AT THE NEXT 12 HOURS HERE IN THE MORNING. IT WILL BE COOL. IT WILL BE COMFORTABLE. WE’RE STILL IN THE 60S AT 10 A.M.

IT WILL CONTINUE INTO THE WEEKEND, BUT NEXT WEEK I’M SAYING THERE’S A CHANCE WE’LL TALK ABOUT THE TIMELINE FOR HOPEFULLY THE RETURN OF SOME RAIN COMING UP. KELLY. OKAY, RANDY. THANK YOU. WE DO HAVE THAT BREAKING NEWS FROM THIS MORNING. 275 WESTBOUND BACK OPEN OVER IN NORTHERN KENTUCKY AFTER A DEADLY CRASH OVERNIGHT. SO BOONE COUNTY DISPATCHERS TELL US THE INITIAL CALL CAME IN AT ABOUT 11, RIGHT NEAR NORTH BEND ROAD IN HEBRON. THE WESTBOUND LANES WERE CLOSED FOR AROUND FIVE HOURS, REOPENING JUST WITHIN THE LAST HOUR. DISPATCHERS COULD NOT SHARE MUCH INFORMATION ABOUT THE PERSON WHO DIED OR ANYTHING THAT LED UP TO THE CRASH. IT DOES REMAIN UNDER INVESTIGATION. THIS MORNING. ALL RIGHT. 502. IF YOU WENT TO BED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE GAME HOPING TO WAKE UP TO BETTER NEWS, I’M SORRY, I CANNOT DELIVER THAT FOR YOU. IT IS A MUST WIN TONIGHT FOR THE REDS AFTER LOSING GAME ONE OF THE PLAYOFFS IN LA, THE REDS DID TRY TO RALLY TOWARDS THE END OF THE GAME, BUT IT JUST WASN’T ENOUGH TO OVERCOME THE DODGERS IN THEIR FIVE HOME RUNS. SPORTS DIRECTOR CHARLIE CLIFFORD IS IN LOS ANGELES WITH WHAT THE REDS NEED TO DO TO KEEP THIS POSTSEASON RUN ALIVE. GOOD MORNING GUYS. FIVE DODGERS HOME RUNS THROUGH THE FIRST SIX INNINGS. THAT WAS NOT THE FORMULA FOR THE REDS COMING IN HERE IN DODGER STADIUM WAS ESSENTIALLY SHAKING FOR THE BETTER PART OF TWO HOURS TO START THIS WILD CARD SERIES. SHOHEI OHTANI HE STEALS THE SHOW. AND THAT DODGER DUGOUT, THEY’RE WALKING AROUND LIKE THEY’RE READY TO MAKE QUICK WORK OF THE REDS. HUNTER GREENE DID TALK POSTGAME. BRIEFLY. IT WASN’T HIS STORYBOOK NIGHT. THREE HOMERS ALLOWED ONLY THE SECOND TIME SINCE THE START OF LAST SEASON THAT GREENE’S ALLOWED THREE HOMERS. TERRY FRANCONA LIKED THE FIGHT LATE, BUT THAT DEFICIT EIGHT RUNS HEADING TO THE SEVENTH TOO BIG WASN’T WHERE HE WAS TRYING TO THROW HIM. AND WHEN HE DIDN’T LOCATE, HE REALLY PAID A PRICE FOR IT. AND THAT HAPPENED TO US WITH OTHER, YOU KNOW, WITH SUIT OR TWO. IF YOU MAKE A MISTAKE, THEY, THEY, THEY CAN MAKE YOU PAY. WASN’T THE NIGHT HUNTER HAD HOPED FOR. WHAT WOULD YOU TELL HIM TONIGHT? IT’S OKAY. IT’S JUST THE GAME. THE GAME IS LIKE THAT. THERE ARE UPS AND DOWNS, BUT WE JUST GOT TO COME TOMORROW WITH THE SAME MENTALITY TALKING TO HIM. AND I’M SURE WE’LL HAVE CONVERSATIONS TOMORROW AND ANYTIME ANYBODY HAS A BAD DAY, WE’RE ALWAYS GOING TO BE THERE TO SUPPORT EACH OTHER. SO. I MEAN, YEAH, WE’RE GOING TO BE THERE FOR HIM. WE AREN’T SURE IF ZACH EXPECTED THIS KIND OF A SPOTLIGHT WHEN HE WAS ACQUIRED BY THE REDS AT THE TRADE DEADLINE, THE SEASONS IN HIS HANDS TONIGHT, OUTSIDE OF GREENE AND POTENTIAL GAME THREE STARTER ANDREW ABBOTT, TERRY FRANCONA IS EXPECTED TO HAVE EVERYONE AT HIS DISPOSAL FROM A PITCHING STANDPOINT, AND THERE’S A CALL FOR MORE OFFENSE FROM THE REDS WILL THAT INVOLVE SAL STEWART IN THE STARTING LINEUP? THE PROMISING ROOKIE WHO LED THE TEAM IN HOME RUNS IN SEPTEMBER? SATURDAY, GAME ONE CAME IN LATE 15 DODGERS HITS LAST NIGHT. WE’LL SEE IF FRANCONA GOES WITH A MORE OFFENSE HEAVY LINEUP IN THIS MAKE OR BREAK GAME TWO. WE WILL SEE YOU BACK HERE TONIGHT FOR PREGAME COVERAGE LIVE BEFORE FIRST PITCH STARTING AT 4:00. FOR NOW IN LOS ANGELES, CHARLIE CLIFFORD. WLWT NEWS FIVE SPORTS. I MAY HAVE TO MATCH POWER FOR POWER. WE SHALL SEE. CHARLIE. THANK YOU. THE REDS CONTINUE THAT PLAYOFF RUN TONIGHT. GAME TWO DODGERS IN L.A. FIRST PITCH 908. CHARLIE IS THERE. WE’LL HAVE LIVE COVERAGE THROUGHOUT THE DAY HERE ON WLWT. NOW LET’S GET TO THE BREAKING NEWS ON CAPITOL HILL WHERE WE ARE LOOKING LIVE AT THE FEDERAL AS THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS NOW SHUT DOWN FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE 2018. CONGRESS FAILED TO PASS A BILL BY MIDNIGHT TO KEEP THINGS FUNDED, EVEN IN THE SHORT TERM. SO WE GO ON AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS TODAY. LAWMAKERS COULD NOT AGREE ON A PLAN TO KEEP FUNDING AT CURRENT LEVELS FOR THE NEXT SEVEN WEEKS, AND THERE’S REALLY NO SIGNS DEMOCRATS AND REPUBLICANS ARE ANY CLOSER TO A DEAL THIS MORNING. THE SENATE IS SET TO VOTE AGAIN ON TWO BILLS AIMED AT REOPENING THE GOVERNMENT. THAT WILL HAPPEN THIS MORNING. THE FIRST INCLUDES THE DEMOCRATS PROPOSAL TO EXTEND HEALTH CARE PROVISIONS THAT ARE SET TO EXPIRE AT THE END OF THE YEAR. THAT SECOND BILL IS THE GOP PLAN, WHICH ALREADY PASSED THE HOUSE BUT DOESN’T TACKLE THE HEALTH CARE ISSUE. BOTH BILLS NEED 60 VOTES TO ADVANCE. NOW, AS THE SHUTDOWN BEGINS, ROUGHLY 750,000 FEDERAL WORKERS EXPECTED TO BE FURLOUGHED. THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION HAS SUGGESTED SOME OF THEM COULD BE FIRED AS WELL. MANY WILL KEEP WORKING, BUT WITHOUT PAY, INCLUDING MORE THAN 13,000 AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLERS. AND THAT MEANS YOU SHOULD NOT SEE ANY MAJOR IMPACTS TO FLIGHTS. FOR NOW AT LEAST. THE EDUCATION DEPARTMENT SAYS MANY OF ITS OPERATIONS ARE ALSO GOING TO CONTINUE. THAT DOES MEAN STUDENT AID WILL STILL BE PROCESSED AND DISTRIBUTED DURING THE SHUTDOWN, BUT ABOUT 87% OF THE AGENCY’S WORKFORCE WILL BE FURLOUGHED. SO OBVIOUSLY THERE’S A LOT TO TAKE IN HERE, HERE IN CINCINNATI. WE ARE WORKING TO GET A CLEARER PICTURE OF THE IMPACTS OF THE SHUTDOWN. WLWT NEWS FIVE’S NICOLE APONTE LIVE WITH WHAT EXPERTS ARE SAYING AND HOW OUR OWN POLITICAL LEADERS ARE REACTING TO THIS DEVELOPMENT OVERNIGHT. NICOLE. KELLY, GOOD MORNING TO YOU. FEDERAL DATA SHOWS THAT 15,000 PEOPLE HERE IN GREATER CINCINNATI WORK FOR THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, BUT IT’S NOT CLEAR HOW MANY OF THOSE PEOPLE WOULD BE CONSIDERED ESSENTIAL WORKERS. THEY WOULD STAY ON THE JOB WITHOUT PAY, OR HOW MANY WOULD BE FURLOUGHED. SOME OF THOSE ESSENTIAL WORKERS WOULD INCLUDE FEDERAL LAW ENFORCEMENT, MEDICAL STAFF AT VA HOSPITALS AND SOME POSTAL SERVICE EMPLOYEES. THE DIRECTOR OF HAMILTON COUNTY’S DEPARTMENT OF JOB AND FAMILY SERVICES SAYS HE IS NOT WORRIED ABOUT ANY IMMEDIATE IMPACTS TO SNAP BENEFITS, BUT THIS ALL DEPENDS ON HOW LONG THIS SHUTDOWN LASTS. ONE NCCU LAW PROFESSOR SAYS YOU WILL NOTICE SOME CHANGES IMMEDIATELY IF PEOPLE NEED TO GET THEIR PASSPORTS RENEWED. IF PEOPLE WANT TO VISIT A NATIONAL PARK, IF PEOPLE NEED TO, YOU KNOW, GET SOME KIND OF LICENSE FROM THE GOVERNMENT TO DO SOMETHING, YOU KNOW, IF BUSINESSES ARE TRYING TO GET APPROVAL FOR A MERGER OR FOR AN ACQUISITION OR FOR TO PUT A NEW DRUG ON THE MARKET, THOSE KIND OF THINGS ARE GOING TO BE SHUT DOWN. CONGRESSMAN GREG LANDSMAN, HE’S THE DEMOCRAT WHO REPRESENTS CINCINNATI. HE SAYS THIS SHUTDOWN IS PRESIDENT TRUMP’S FAULT. MEANTIME, REPUBLICAN SENATOR JON HUSTED, HE IS SAYING THIS GOP FUNDING PLAN, IT IS CLEAN. AND HE’S URGING DEMOCRATS TO APPROVE IT. REPORTING LI
