CLEVELAND -- Cleveland Indians two-time all-star closer Chris Perez, charged with misdemeanour possession after marijuana was mailed to his home in his dogs name, told drug agents he had pot for personal use and pointed out two jars, according to investigative reports. Asked about any drugs or weapons by officers who went to the Perez home on Tuesday with a search warrant, "Perez responded that he had personal use marijuana in the basement and volunteered to direct the officers to the location of it," an investigative report said. "He pointed out a number of items of paraphernalia along with two separate mason jars containing a green vegetable matter suspected of being marijuana," it said. Police, tipped off to suspicious packages by postal inspectors, arranged a delivery Tuesday under surveillance, and Perezs wife, Melanie, accepted two packages, the reports said. Melanie Perez, whose maiden name is Baum, told the undercover officer delivering the packages that they were intended for her dog, named Brody. The package was addressed to Brody Baum, according to postal inspectors. A later house search under warrant began while Perez and his wife were out for lunch and a movie, the reports said. A baby sitter was caring for two children. Police say Perez returned home and mentioned personal marijuana use to the search team of officers. Perez, 27, and his 29-year-old wife were charged in a complaint filed Friday with misdemeanour drug possession involving just over one-third of a pound of marijuana, suburban Rocky River police said. The two havent commented, but their attorney said they would plead not guilty. "We ask that people not rush to judgment. We are confident of a favourable outcome," lawyer Terry Gilbert said in a statement on their behalf. Perez and his wife were released on personal bond. "Clearly we take these matters seriously and are disappointed whenever there is any negative attention brought to the Indians organization or one of our players," team general manager Chris Antonetti said in a statement. "We understand and respect that there is an ongoing legal process that we will allow to evolve." Manager Terry Francona had little to say about the matter before Clevelands game at Detroit on Friday night. "Hes got some friends that care about him, which makes sense, and Ive spoken to him a couple times," Francona said. "But out of respect to the situation and the process, were really not allowed to talk about it." Under the drug agreement between Major League Baseball and its players association, marijuana offences generally result with the player undergoing a treatment program rather than discipline. Questioned when investigators returned to the house hours after the delivery, Melanie Perez told them that she doesnt smoke marijuana but that her husband "had drug paraphernalia" in the house. Asked whether the marijuana shipment was intended for her husband, Melanie Perez responded, "What did Chris say?" according to the investigative report. The packages smelled of marijuana and had a Los Angeles return address with a name that wasnt associated with that location, postal inspectors said. Dan Chaplin, a Cleveland defence attorney not connected with the case, compared the charge to a traffic ticket and said a conviction likely would be punished with a fine. Perez has six saves this season but is on the disabled list with an injured right shoulder. Francona was asked how his recovery is going. "You know what? He was at the ballpark -- actually, through all this, I forgot to even ask," Francona said. "Through all of this, I didnt even ask, and I need to." Perez, an often-polarizing figure, and Cleveland fans have gotten on each others nerves over the past couple of years. He recently deactivated his Twitter account after criticism from fans following a couple of bad outings. In previous seasons, Perez has lashed out at fans for not coming to games, and at owners for not spending money on free agents.

RIO DE JANEIRO -- The collaboration between April Ross and Kerri Walsh Jennings goes beyond the Copacabana beach volleyball venue, beyond the California beaches where they trained for the Olympics and beyond the far-flung airports and hotel rooms they visited to qualify for the Rio de Janeiro Games.The Americans also worked together with pen and paper to design their Olympic uniforms -- sewing for gold even while they were going for gold.It was Kerris idea originally to design our own suits, Ross said this week on an off-day from the beach volleyball competition. She brought it up, and I liked the idea a lot. Its so cool. It just gives you more ownership of the whole thing.With its two-person partnerships, beach volleyball is more similar to an individual pursuit like tennis or golf than a team sport like basketball, where the players are picked by a federation. So instead of a team sponsor that dictates the look and logo of the uniform, players can sign their own deals and choose their own gear.But Walsh Jennings and Ross didnt want to thumb through a catalog and buy off the rack. They came up with an idea for a uniform top, and Ross sketched out an initial design. She sent it off to her sponsor to see what they could do.Know that it might not pan out, but itd be cool to have something kind of unique, she said in an email to Mizuno, attaching rough drawings of a top with a higher neck and a longer front.The date was Feb. 11.We also all sort of lost our minds for a minute, said Emily Adams Knight, the head of volleyball product at Mizuno, who played with Ross at Southern California and roomed with her on the road. We realized that we had less than six months to execute a very high-performing garment, a task that would normally take 18 months or longer.Knight said the plan had been to pick existing gear and stamp USA on it. But April and Kerri had a specific design concept that they wanted us to try, she said.Complicating matters was the fact that Walsh Jennings is signed by Asics. Even when players have diffferent sponsors, the Olympics require the uniforms to be uniform.ddddddddddddThat led to a compromise: Asics and Mizuno would send each other its version of the uniform, and the competing sponsor would affix its own logo. The players have alternated matches -- Mizuno the first day, Asics the second, back to Mizuno for Wednesday nights pool play finale against Switzerland.As far as I know, its been a really cooperative process, Ross said.By early May, there was a prototype ready for a fitting. Mizuno representatives met the players in California, then did another fitting at the world tour event outside Cincinnati a few weeks later.The final versions were delivered one day before the players left for U.S. team processing in Houston.It came out exactly how I envisioned it, Ross said. Its amazing how perfect they came out.Ross, who learned to sew with her mother, has made herself some simple clothes -- a couple of dresses, some T-shirts. She said she has thought about creating a beach line with her sister.But nothing will be as high-profile as playing in the Olympics on Copacabana beach. Wearing their self-designed uniforms over long sleeves to deal with temperatures that dipped into the low 60s, the Americans beat Switzerland in three sets on Wednesday to finish the pool stage unbeaten.Walsh Jennings has worked with Asics on her own line of swimsuits and athletic wear, called the Kerri Collection. Next time, she said, she hopes to be even more involved in the process -- perhaps an entire shoe or uniform line.We get a lot of flak about our bathing suits, Walsh Jennings said. But we work really hard to make sure that they fit and theyre sport-appropriate and performance-enhancing.---Jimmy Golen has covered beach volleyball for The Associated Press at the last three Olympics.
