Oakland A's Report
The A's Jurickson Profar tripled in the fourth inning and would score two batters later on a Mark Canha home run, helping send the Giants down to a 4-2 defeat in the final Battle of Bay
* * *
First, after finishing off their crossbay rival, the San Francisco Giants, in the Battle of Bay series to start the week the Oakland Athletics defeated the Los Angeles Angels three games to one their four game Home Opener series.
The A's finalized their 25-man roster by picking up infielder Kendrys Morales from the Toronto Blue Jays, who will take over at first base in the absence of Gold Glover Matt Olson, out with an injury. Oakland sent Toronto minor league infielder Jesus Lopez and international slot money in the trade for Morales.
Though many Athletics fans may have understandably shown concern for the A's starting pitching rotation after losing top prospect Jesús Luzardo to a shoulder injury (out two months), Oakland's starters have performed well. Aaron Brooks earned his spot as the fifth starter in the rotation after allowing just one earned run over five and a third innings in the Athletics' 4-2 victory over the Giants on Tuesday. Mike Fiers tossed six scoreless innings in the home opener on Thursday, four-and-a-third of which were hitless. In spite of a 6-2 loss to the Angels on Friday night, Marco Estrada threw six scoreless innings of his own, further emphasizing the potential strength of the starting rotation. On Saturday Brett Anderson repeated as the third Athletics starting pitcher to pitch six scoreless innings in a 4-2 victory before Frankie Montas wrapped up the Angels series, allowing just one run in a six inning effort to yield a 2-1 victory on Sunday.
A's slugger Khris Davis mashed three home runs in the Angels series, bringing his total to four in just six games into the season. He will look to continue his streak against a slew of solid pitchers, as the A's face the World Series Champion Boston Red Sox at home for a four game series beginning Monday evening at 7:07 p.m.
On Friday the A's open on the road against
the Houston Astros at 5:10 p.m.

San Francisco Giants Report

* * *
San Francisco played their first official games at Oracle Park last Monday and Tuesday during the Battle of the Bay exhibition series against the Oakland Athletics. The Giants dropped both contests, though Tuesday's game was cut short after six innings because of rain.
For Opening Day on Thursday, the squad headed to San Diego and the start of a four game series. In their first game of the 2019 season, the Giants fell to the Padres, 2-0. Giants pitcher Madison Bumgarner contributed a strong effort, striking out nine and allowing just two earned in seven innings, but had no offensive support. The Giants offense also struggled the next day and absorbed a 4-1 defeat, garnering just six hits. Giants starting pitcher Derek Holland allowed three earned runs on four hits over four innings.
The Giants' first victory of the season came on Saturday with a 3-2 win. Starter Dereck RodrÃguez allowed just two earned and relievers Reyes Moronta and Will Smith combined to toss four scoreless innings and held the one-run lead. In Sunday's game the Giants were held to just one run and two hits in a 3-1 loss and lost their first series of the season, 1-3.
On Tuesday, Giants CEO Larry Baer was suspended by the MLB for a physical assault on his wife, captured on video. Baer, who has publicly apologized, is slated to return when his suspension is up on July 1. He is suspended without pay.
San Francisco heads to Los Angeles on Monday to begin a three game rivalry series with the back-to-back National League champion Los Angeles Dodgers before their home opener at
Oracle Park on Friday against the Tampa Bay Rays, starting at 1:35 p.m.

Oakland A's Forecast
Author Jonathan Siegel and his wife, Aixa, and his daughter, Lea, attended the Oakland A's vs.
San Diego Padres spring training game at Hohokam Stadium in Mesa, AZ on March 8, 2019
Hope springs eternal as A's open season
by Jonathan Siegel
A few weeks ago, I attended my first ever spring training in Arizona. Of course, after watching a couple of spring games, where guys with numbers in the 80's and 90's played the last four innings, I am now an expert on how the green and gold will do in the upcoming season. Well, maybe not, but I do have a few observations.
First, attending a game at Hohokam Park is a lesson in what a nice ballpark can do for the experience. My daughter aptly observed, "I don't know how I feel about this being so much nicer than our actual stadium." It's clean and newish (refurbished), the walkways wide enough, the food diverse and parking easy. The kids are well behaved and the beer is cold.
On the field, I noticed that new relief pitcher Joakim Soria was unhittable, AAA catcher Sean Murphy has a great arm, one of the many starter candidates, Paul Blackburn, looked very hittable, and Chad Pinder hits the ball hard. Also, the official scorers needed some work. Ramon Laureano made a spectacular play and followed up by dropping a ball that was much easier. The batter got a hit.
That said, the mainly good news is that the A's lineup looks pretty much like last year's edition which won 97 games and the wild card. Same strong hitting and fielding headlined by DH Khris Davis, gold glove 3B Matt Chapman, gold glove 1B Matt Olson, SS Marcus Semien, RF Stephen Piscotty, et. al. Newly acquired second baseman Jurickson Profar could be the get of the off-season, finally fulfilling the uber prospect status he had for Texas for several years.
The bullpen also looks primed to be a strength again, led by closer Blake Treinen, second year stud Lou Trivino, Soria and sole lefty Ryan Buchter. Hey, we're even learning to love Fernando Rodney.
|
Jonathan and Lea were not seriously distracted... |

Unfortunately the rotation looks like last year as well, which is not so good. If sheer numbers counted, we would be killing it, as the A's have assembled literally around 20 "possibles" to make the rotation at some point in the season. We open with veterans Mike Fiers, Marco Estrada and Brett Anderson, keeping our fingers crossed, followed by Frankie Montas and Aaron Brooks. Spring optimism centered on fireballing righty Montas, who does look primed for a breakout, and Jesus Luzardo. Luzardo is widely considered the best lefty starting prospect in the minors, so naturally he ended spring training with a "mild" shoulder strain. Best case, he will be pitching in June.
I don't have enough words allotted to this article to go through all the possible starter reinforcements on the DL or in the minors, but would highlight A.J. Puk and Jharel Cotton (who both looked likely to make last year's rotation before ending the spring with Tommy John surgery) and Sean Manaea, last year's best starter, who ended the season with a "shoulder procedure." Any or all could be back mid-season. Or not.
Of course, it just wouldn't be the A's without spring training injuries. Besides Luzardo, Chris Herrmann, signed to be the lefty hitting half of a catcher platoon, went down with arthroscopic knee surgery, to be replaced by an all righty platoon of Josh Phegley and former Giant Nick Hundley, which is not good offensively or defensively. Hopefully Herrmann will be back by June and top prospect Murphy will be banging on the door from AAA.
In the cruelest blow of all, the A's opened the season with two losses to Seattle in Tokyo, before resuming exhibition play for a week. It was just enough time for Matt Olson to break the hamate bone in his hand and require surgery. He too will be out 4-8 weeks.
A's management spent a busy off-season putting in new special sections at the Coliseum designed to diversify the ways you can sit, stand or lounge and drink beer. As for me, as long as the sun is out and the beer is cold, I'm down. Even if it's not Hohokam Park, it's still the A's.

Sonoma Raceway -- Shell Eco-marathon Americas
|

EEV Sacramento State entry |
|
Three local universities to compete with ultra-energy-efficient vehicles at Sonoma Raceway
SONOMA, Calif. (March 29, 2019) --
For the second consecutive year, Sonoma Raceway will host
Make the Future Live
California featuring Shell Eco-marathon Americas, April 3-6. More than 1,000 students from high schools and universities throughout North and South America will compete on the Sonoma Raceway road course in one of the world's leading energy efficiency competitions, including three teams from Northern California universities.
University of California, Berkeley, California State University Sacramento and California Polytechnic State University in San Luis Obispo will each field ultra-energy efficient entries in Shell Eco-marathon Americas; a global program designed to offer students hands-on opportunities to develop ideas, technology, knowledge and skills, within an arena of competition.
Shell Eco-marathon, currently held annually in Asia, the Americas and Europe, with several grass roots events across the globe, is made up of two key competitions:
* Shell Eco-marathon Mileage Challenge -- a competition to see who can go the farthest on the least amount of energy, and;
*
Shell Eco-marathon Drivers' World Championship -- matching the proven energy-efficiency of the car, with the strategy, skill and speed of the driver.
Student teams from countries across their respective regions use innovative problem-solving skills to design and build their own cars. Looking at every aspect of design and technology, students compete to prove that their bright ideas will produce the most energy-efficient vehicle when tested on the track.
UC Berkeley's Cal Super-Mileage Vehicle Team will attempt a run at the Shell Eco-marathon with their vehicle, Lux, which is driven by a pure battery-electric drivetrain on a carbon fiber body. They will compete in the UrbanConcept division, which focuses on "roadworthy," energy-efficient vehicles aimed at meeting the real-life needs of drivers.
Energy Efficient Vehicle (EEV) at Sac State will field its Green Hornet entry in the UrbanConcept category. EEV at CSU Sacramento is a student-run and student-organized group of mechanical engineering students. The team is diverse in ethnicity, gender, and age; with many members who speak English as their second language and others who are parents returning to school. The majority of team members are interested in pursuing careers in automotive engineering or sustainable energy.
The Cal Poly Supermileage team returns to competition with two entries, Delamina and Eventus, both in the Prototype vehicle category. Eventus is the team's first-ever battery electric vehicle, while Delamina will run on gasoline. Cal Poly has participated in the Shell Eco-marathon since it launched in the Americas in 2007; however, many of their current members are first-year university students.
In the Shell Eco-marathon, cars will drive a fixed number of laps around the .94-mile, five-turn circuit and must maintain a minimum speed. Organizers will then calculate their energy efficiency and name a winner in each class and for each energy source: internal combustion (gasoline, diesel and ethanol), hydrogen fuel cell and battery electric technologies.
Make the Future Live
California featuring Shell Eco-marathon Americas will run from
noon-6:30 p.m. on Thursday, from 8 a.m.-7 p.m. on Friday and from 8 a.m.-3:50 p.m. on Saturday with Closing Ceremonies at 5 p.m. Practice runs will take place on Thursday with competition spanning Thursday through Saturday. The event is free for spectators of all ages and parking is free. For more information on the event, visit

Sports Prep Star --
Cooper Hjerpe
Woodland - Baseball - Senior
Cooper Hjerpe, the Oregon State-bound lefty, could do no wrong during Woodland's 14-0 win over Mira Loma on March 26. He went 3-for-4 at the plate with a double, triple and four RBI -- but that wasn't even his most impressive stat of the game. On the mound he was absolutely overpowering. Hjerpe tossed a 5-inning perfect game and retired every batter by strikeout. He faced 15 batters and struck out every one. Hjerpe will enter April with a 2-1 record and a 1.87 ERA with 36 strikeouts over just 15 innings pitched. Woodland is 4-3-1 on the season.
