TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- Thanks to a college football players small gesture of kindness, it could be a long time before a mother will have to worry again about her autistic son eating lunch alone.Tears streamed down the face of Leah Paske when she saw the photo of Florida State University wide receiver Travis Rudolph sharing a cafeteria table with her sixth-grader. Then she shared her gratitude on Facebook, and the story took off.By Wednesday, Bo Paske had no shortage of lunch companions.Everyone was super welcoming him. He was at a table full of girls, which I thought was funny, Leah Paske said. The feedback has been good.Rudolph was among several FSU players visiting Montford Middle School in Tallahassee on Tuesday when he saw Bo sitting alone in the cafeteria. He grabbed a slice of pizza and asked if he could join him.The child said, Sure, why not, Rudolph recalled after practice that day.We just had a great conversation. He started off, telling me his name was Bo, telling me how much he loves Florida State. We went from there, said the West Palm Beach, Florida, native, now beginning his junior season.It was real easy ... youd never think anything was wrong with him. He had a nice smile on his face. Just a really warm person.Bos mother had shared her anxieties in the Facebook post. Middle school can be tough. Would other kids be welcoming, or mean?Sometimes Im grateful for his autism. That may sound like a terrible thing to say, but in some ways I think, I hope, it shields him, she wrote.He doesnt seem to notice when people stare at him when he flaps his hands. He doesnt seem to notice that he doesnt get invited to birthday parties anymore. And he doesnt seem to mind if he eats lunch alone. Its one of my daily questions for him. Was there a time today you felt sad? Who did you eat lunch with today? Sometimes the answer is a classmate, but most days its nobody.The photo was taken by Mike Halligan, the middle schools resource officer and a friend of the family. Halligan said he texted it to Paske to ease her concerns about how her son was acclimating to a new school.I knew it was important for Leah to be comfortable and know that her son is doing OK and is not afraid, Halligan said.Paske said their encounter has given autism awareness a huge boost.The picture speaks way more than a thousand words. You can see how far away the rest of the students are, but you can see how engaged Travis is with Bo. Hes looking at him while hes eating, she said. Its so telling. I cant get over how such a small moment can have a huge impact.FSU coach Jimbo Fisher said hes proud of his player.You can make someones day by being yourself and understanding the impact you have as an athlete, he said.Rudolph said his phone hasnt stopped ringing.I just wanted to go say hi to the kid, because I saw him eating alone. I didnt even know anybody took a photo of it, Rudolph explained in an email. Im glad it can bring awareness to helping others.Bo, too, is excited -- about Rudolph signing his lunch box, as well as all the attention.Its been awesome. Everyone was so proud of me, he said.Paske said they have been invited to dinner with the team and possibly a game. Florida State football spokesman Zach Stipe said logistics are being worked out.Florida State is ranked fourth in The Associated Press Preseason Top 25, and opens the season on Monday against 11th-ranked Mississippi in Orlando.

WASHINGTON -- The Cincinnati Reds had squandered 4-1 lead late in Saturday nights game and it seemed just a matter of time before the Washington Nationals completed a comeback win.Instead the Reds pulled away.Tucker Barnhart singled home the tiebreaking run in the 10th inning to lead Cincinnati to a 9-4 victory over the Nationals, snapping the Reds five-game losing streak.Weve kind of struggled to get separation from teams late in games, but to be able to get that tonight and hold on for a win is big, said Barnhart, who has hit safely in 10 of his last 11 starts.Cincinnati scored on a fielding error and a wild pitch, and Jose Peraza and Jay Bruce also had RBI in the five-run 10th.Josh Smith (1-1) pitched 1 1/3 innings for his first career win.Its really fitting that Tucker gets that hit in the tenth because weve been together since 2010 (when) I got drafted, Smith said.Eugenio Saurez and Brandon Phillips opened the 10th with singles off Sammy Solis (1-3) and first baseman Ryan Zimmerman was unable to field Billy Hamiltons sacrifice attempt, loading the bases.Barnhart singled to right for his third hit of the game to drive in Suarez. Phillips also scored on the play when Bryce Harper booted the ball for an error. Hamilton later scored on a wild pitch, and Peraza had an RBI single and Bruce a run-scoring groundout.We really did show some resiliency for a team that could be packing it in, manager Bryan Price said. And they havent (packed it in), so Im really pleased with that.Danny Espinosa hit his 16th homer for the Nationals, who had won six straight after losing seven in a row.I think that was Harps first error of the year and Zims second, theyre usually sure-handed guys, Nationals manager Dusty Baker said. These things happen, they dont happen to us much, but especially (not) to guys who committed one error between them.Washington trailed 4-1 entering the eighth, but Espinosa had a two-run homer off starter Don Straily and Harper added an RBI single to tie the score.Zack Cozart had three hits for the Reds and Adam Duvall doubled twice.After allowing 17 runs in his last three sttarts, Straily took a one-hitter into the eighth.ddddddddddddWe were happy to see him leave to tell you the truth, Baker said.Washington starter Joe Ross was touched for four runs on 10 hits in 5 1/3 innings. He allowed three runs and two hits with four strikeouts and three walks.Ross, who gave up three runs in the first three innings before winning his last start, again struggled early.The first two Reds hitters reached base to open the game and came home on Duvalls double. Brandon Phillips, batting sixth for the first time this season, singled home Duvall.Cozarts double made it 4-0 in the second.Revere had an RBI triple in the third.TRAINERS ROOMReds: Price said 1B Joey Votto (sore right shoulder) is day-to-day after being a late scratch.
