Baltimore's Ponson arrested for drink-driving

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Sidney Ponson was arrested on a drink-driving charge on Thursday, the latest in a series of off-field problems for the Baltimore Orioles pitcher.
Ponson was stopped at 0130 local time for tailgating while entering Interstate 95 in Baltimore and was arrested for failing a sobriety test, said Maryland Transportation Authority spokeswoman Pamela Thorne.
The 28-year-old Ponson was charged with driving under the influence and driving while impaired.
He was charged earlier this year with driving under the influence in Florida and also spent 11 days in jail in his native Aruba for fighting on a beach.
Ponson is on the disabled list with a strained right calf. He has a 7-11 record this year with a 6.21 ERA.
The Orioles pitcher has not won since beating Colorado on June 18. located on http://today.reuters.com
