Bolt anchors Jamaica to relay record for 3rd gold

LONDON (AP) - Usain Bolt pleaded with an official to let him keep the yellow baton he carried across the finish line while anchoring Jamaica to a world record in the Olympic 4x100-meter relay. About even with the last U.S. runner when he got the stick, Bolt steadily pulled away over the last 100 meters, gritting his teeth and leaning at the line to cap his perfect 3-for-3 Olympics by leading Jamaica to the sprint relay title in 36.84 seconds Saturday night. The United States got the silver in 37.04, matching the old record that Bolt helped set at last year's world championships.
