Scoop water (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bail

(Other definitions for bail that I've seen before include "Crosspiece on a 14 across" , "Temporary release of the accused - wicket crosspiece" , "Crosspiece in cricket wicket" , "In cricket, wooden cross-piece placed on stumps" , "Wooden bar" .)

I've seen this clue in The Star Tribune.
