WORCESTER, Mass. (AP) -- A former middle school gym teacher facing child pornography possession charges has been denied a request to attend Boston Red Sox games.

Brian Rossi asked to be allowed to go to Red Sox games while he's under home confinement. A federal magistrate refused on Tuesday to relax the rules.

Rossi wears a monitoring device and is only allowed to leave home for court-approved medical and legal appointments. But he asked the judge if could attend 13 baseball games with family members because he bought the tickets before his February arrest.

He has pleaded not guilty to federal charges accusing him of possessing videos and printed images of boys ages 8 to 12 involved in sex acts.
