Ontheair an overuse of everything when it comes to looking for real stuff." Many products claiming to be human growth hor- mones are widely available on the internet. But getting authentic HGH — which can cost up to $1,000 per kit for a monthly supply — isn't that simple. "It's a lot easier for high school athletes to get over- the-counter pro-hormones than legitimate HGH," said Steve Saunders, CEO of Power Train Sports In- stitute. Saunders trains thou- sands of high school and college athletes and hun- dreds of professional ath- letes at his 15 locations across six states, including Hawaii. James Harrison, Hines Ward, LeSean Mc- Coy and even actor Liam Hemsworth are just a few of his previous clients. "We tell all our guys you can't substitute hard work and a proper nutri- tion plan," Saunders said. "Using HGH and steroids is pure laziness." But many athletes are looking for a quick fix and turning to performance- enhancing drugs. In a confidential 2013 survey of 3,705 high school students, 11 per- cent reported using syn- thetic HGH at least once — up from about 5 percent in the four preceding an- nual surveys. Teen use of steroids increased from 5 percent to 7 percent over the same period, the sur- vey found. However, like the teen- agers from suburban Phila- delphia, many teens might not know what they're tak- ing. "We had no clue we weren't using real HGH," Guerreri said. "We figured it out when we didn't get any results from it and then a guy at our gym told us HGH doesn't come in a bottle." The three friends were walking around the ball- park during a Phillies-Gi- ants game on Monday night wearing fitted T-shirts. The attire showed off their bulging biceps, and the trio say they tried various sup- plements — both legal and illegal — throughout their high school years. Guerreri, who is 6-foot- 4, 220 pounds, is chiseled. He's closer to accomplish- ing his goal than his two friends because he looks a little like Randy Orton, his favorite WWE star. Badalanato didn't even start at running back his senior year and remains undecided on college. O'Brien's fastball only topped out at 81 mph. Steroids FROM PAGE 1 ing camp's knee injury, and Jimmie Ward, this year's first-round draft pick who's projected as the starting nickel back. Fangio said both have looked "fine" in practice, and although that doesn't sound like a ringing en- dorsement, he sounded genuinely pleased and en- couraged. For Culliver, he's lining up on the right side and cutting well. These are his first team drills since tear- ing the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee last Aug. 1. "I didn't see any indi- cations this is a guy who came off a year rehab," Fangio said. With Tramaine Brock entrenched as a return- ing starter on the left side, Culliver's bid for a starting job could hinge on how he compares to Chris Cook, a newcomer who had no interceptions in four sea- sons with the Minnesota Vikings. Culliver's edge is his ex- perience, at least in terms of his 2011-12 seasons as the No. 3 cornerback. Fan- gio wants him to become a "more complete corner- back" and adjust to pass routes that are different in base situations than the multiple-receiver sets in nickel. Ward has been ticketed for that nickel spot – cov- ering slot receivers — since the draft. "I like him mentally," Fangio said. "He's confi- dent without being cocky or arrogant. He knows he's got a daunting task ahead of him, that he was put be- hind the 8-ball with no off- season work." Foot surgery in March may have kept Ward out of team drills, but he made an interception in Thursday's debut practice of camp. Bethea praised the rookie for an ability to "always be around the ball." Ward, after Thursday's practice, said: "This is our dream job. Football is the easy part. I'm just trying to learn the system." "Everything about him mentally and emotion- ally will end up being on the plus side of his ledger," Fangio added. Perrish Cox knows it well, too, and will challenge Ward for the nickel role, along with Darryl Morris. Carlos Rogers used to oc- cupy that job, but he's gone off to the Raiders, as has Tarell Brown while safety Donte Whitner signed with the Browns. "That's obviously the storyline, that we lost three of four starters," Reid said. " But we have guys with ex- perience. These guys aren't rookies by any means like I was last year." Notes: • Kendall Hunter, the 49ers' top backup to Frank Gore, appeared to injure his right knee early in practice and walked off the field to the locker room un- der his own power. Hunter had caught a swing pass from Blaine Gabbert on the second play of team drills. Hunter showed no vis- ible limp but looked up- set as he slowly walked off the field, accompanied by head trainer Jeff Ferguson. Hunter played every game last season after missing the final two months of the 2012 season with a torn Achilles. 49ers FROM PAGE 1 bia's RBI single after Jim Adduci had a leadoff dou- ble in the second off Jason Hammel (0-3). Andrus had a two-out triple in the third and scored on a single by Alex Rios. Hammel came to Oak- land from the Chicago Cubs with Jeff Samardzjia in the July 5 trade. Ham- mel allowed four runs (three earned) in 5 2/3 in- nings. Yoenis Cespedes was back in Oakland's lineup after missing Thurs- day with a sprained right thumb. He had an RBI sin- gle in the sixth, but had some adventures in only his second start in center field this season. Adduci's double was hit to straightaway center over Cespedes. Andrus tripled on a ball that twice got past Cespedes, when he couldn't cut it off in the right-center gap and when it ricocheted off the wall. Cespedes had an error in the sixth on a wide throw home after Adrian Beltre's RBI single. Rios and Beltre got an extra base, and Ad- duci followed with a sacri- fice fly. NOTES: Oakland man- ager Bob Melvin success- fully challenged to have two safe calls at first base overturned on replay. Arencibia was initially ruled safe on a pickoff throw by Hammel in the fourth. Andrus was called safe on what would have been an infield single, but wound up the inning-end- ing out in the seventh. ... Rangers pitching coach Mike Maddux and long- time broadcaster Eric Nadel have hall passes to miss this weekend's series. Nadel, in his 20th season as the lead voice on Rang- ers radio broadcasts, will receive the 38th Ford C. Frick Award at the annual Hall of Fame awards cer- emony today in Cooper- stown. Maddux is there for the National Baseball Hall of Fame induction Sun- day of his brother Greg, a special assistant for the Rangers. ... OF Jake Smo- linski (bone bruise left foot) was put on the 15- day DL to make room for Williams on the 25-man roster. LHP Justin Marks was released to clear a 40- man spot. A's FROM PAGE 1 ball team than we've had at any point up to this point." But perhaps the most crucial newcomer will be quarterback Matt Schaub, who is getting a fresh start in Oakland after losing his job during a rough 2013 in Houston. Schaub set an NFL re- cord by having an inter- ception returned for a touchdown in four straight games, lost the starting job to Case Keenum and was harassed by frustrated fans who went as far as burning his jersey. "I think he's very hun- gry," Allen said. "I think he's excited about the new opportunity. I think any- time you go into something new there's a little bit of, maybe it's an increased fo- cus, an increased intensity level, because it is new. You kind of force yourself out of your comfort zone a little bit. I think he's done that. Schaub was anointed the starter when Oakland acquired him in a trade from Houston in March. Oakland then drafted Derek Carr in the second round but still plan to have Schaub as starter. He welcomes the chance at a fresh start after seven seasons with the Texans and likes the upgrades the Raiders have made this off- season. "It's exciting to be a part of that," he said. "It's def- initely an exciting time as a veteran to make this transition over here to this team to help get back to that Raider way. It's ex- citing to see what they've done." NOTES: WR Greg Little made a few highlight-reel catches along the sideline but also dropped one easy ball as he tries to shake the inconsistency label that dogged him during his time in Cleveland. ... All 82 players on the active roster were able to practice. Oak- land has five players on the PUP list, two on the non- football injury list and one open roster spot.
