TENNIS ATP Monte Carlo Masters Early Round: 2a.m., TENNIS. Ontheair the Giants' manager and 23rd overall, counting his dozen years running the San Diego Padres. He has a 1794-1766 career mana- gerial record, along with three World Series titles and four NL pennants. Bochy, who is under contract through 2019 and is one of the game's most highly paid manag- ers, said last September that he didn't anticipate having to step down early because of any health con- cerns. "No," he said. "There's no question in my mind. It's what I love to do. I don't know what else I would do if I didn't do this. I mean, I could have stepped down and counted my blessings like (former third base coach Tim Flannery) did, but I'm still hungry. I want to get back there. I want to win again. And if that goes away, then so will I." Giants FROM PAGE 1 hamstrings. Basketball is a quick-twitch, jumpy sport. There is risk of re- aggravation and the War- riors don't want to make it worse right before the com- petition ramps up. Durant had a hamstring strain last season and the Thunder held him out seven games. Maybe this is so mi- nor he doesn't even miss Wednesday night. But it's become something to mon- itor. And, if he's forced to sit Game 2 and anything beyond, how will things be altered? Matt Barnes' return would help. When Du- rant went down with the knee injury in late Feb- ruary, Barnes was signed to plug up Durant's left- over minutes. But Barnes has missed the past three weeks with a foot/ankle sprain. The Warriors also list him as questionable on Wednesday night and Kerr admitted that Durant's availability may dictate whether he pushes Barnes to return. "It could," Kerr said. "We'll see how everybody is doing tomorrow and give you an update." Backup point guard Shaun Livingston is also laboring. He jammed his right index finger while diving for a loose ball in Game 1, missed practice and is listed as question- able. Durant and Livings- ton played 51 combined minutes in Game 1. With those potentially avail- able, Patrick McCaw's role could expand. The rookie only played 23 seconds in his playoff debut, subbing in briefly for a late-quar- ter defensive possession. His versatility could help in Golden State's quest to slow Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum a bit, but on offense, the Warriors need the willing, attacking Mc- Caw, not the timid one. "We've been in this situ- ation very recently," Steph Curry said. "So we under- stand it's next man up." Andre Iguodala may be the most important of those men. With Durant gone for 19 games, Iguo- dala turned back the clock and became an offensive force in March, nailing bet- ter than 40 percent of his 3s, dunking 25 times and averaging in double-dig- its. But with Durant back, in Game 1, Iguodala only took one shot and scored two points in 33 minutes. "I understand this may not be my series, as far as offensively," Iguodala told Bay Area News Group col- umnist Marcus Thompson. But if Durant is out again, Iguodala's scor- ing punch may be needed again. "We had to experience it in the regular season," Iguodala said. "This would be a little bit tougher in the playoffs. He takes so much pressure of us, makes the game a little bit easier for us. But we know the type of stuff that keeps us success- ful without him." Warriors FROM PAGE 1 to throw out Colby Harri- son in plenty of time trying to score while the would-be tying run stood at second base in what became an 8-6 affair in nine innings. Tweedt also starred at the plate in addition to be- hind it, delivering a three- run double on a sinking liner that right fielder Tyler Carlisle couldn't come up with on a diving attempt with the bases full and two outs in the ninth. Kolby Button's single then drove in Tweedt, who was 4 of 5 with four RBIs in the game after the Spartans (14-6, 7-2 Eastern Athletic- Sac River League) could only manage a single run in the 4-1 opener that went to PV. Button was 3 of 5 with a double and two RBIs in thesecond game.EricSpen- cer, Austin Youngblood and Tweedt all had two hits in the opener. Tanner ended up with the win after he tossed four innings in relief. He could have had a save instead, but a fly ball to left field was dropped with one out, aiding a rally that already started by PV (16-2-1, 8-2). Initially, the umpire ruled the ball was caught by Travis Fite and only dropped on the transfer be- fore changing the call. "Well... of course, we've got to say we thought he did, but no I think he dropped it," Tweedt said. Sanders said much of the same. "The reality is they got the call right. It didn't come out on the transfer, but that is what they had called and based on the information they were giving us I didn't feel like it should have been overruled.Butintheendit's hard to argue because it's the right call," he said. Still, the Spartans pulled out the win and the split. "We'll take it," Sanders said, "We knew it was go- ing to end in an interesting fashion." Friday's game set for a 7 p.m. first pitch at Red Bluff could be more of the same after both squads had ex- tra innings to contend with in addition to the Northern Section's rules this season on pitch counts for pitchers. Tanner, the Spartans' expected starter for Fri- day, had to throw two addi- tional innings after the two he threw in relief of Wesley Clawson, the San Jose State commit. Button, the starter in the opener, walked six in 4 2/3 innings. But the Vikings managed just four hits off him. Red Bluff FROM PAGE 1 By Andrew Baggarly BayAreaNewsGroup KANSAS CITY Even when Bruce Bochy isn't in the ballpark, his intuition has a way of working out. While Bochy recuper- ated from a heart proce- dure in San Diego on Tues- day, Matt Cain rewarded the manager's faith in him. Cain was brilliant while holding the Kansas City Royals to a run on four hits in seven innings, cement- ing a place in the Giants ro- tation that looked so shaky just a week ago. The Giants bullpen was just as tough, Joe Panik hit a tiebreaking single in the 11th inning and interim manager Ron Wotus shook hands after a 2-1 victory at Kauffman Stadium. Nick Hundley doubled and scored on Panik's sin- gle, which Royals center fielder Lorenzo Cain only managed to trap. Closer Mark Melancon entered for the save and struck out Raul Mondesi to strand two runners as the Giants came out on top in their first game at Kauff- man Stadium since they won Game 7 of the 2014 World Series here. Before Panik's hit found grass instead of leather, both teams fumbled for a clutch hit. The Royals are 2 for 37 this season with two outs and runners in scor- ing position (and 0 for 6 Tuesday), the worst in the major leagues. The Giants almost out- wasted the Royals. Their lowlight came in the sev- enth inning when they had three chances to score the tiebreaking run from third base, and couldn't do it. As a consequence, Matt Cain took no decision. He was denied the chance to win his first game in an AL park since June 18, 2012, at Anaheim — the start after he threw his perfect game against the Houston As- tros. (The Astros were still an NL team at the time, by the way.) But Cain built on the momentum from his pre- vious start against the Ar- izona Diamondbacks. NATIONAL LEAGUE Giants outlast Royals, win in 11 innings CHARLIE RIEDEL — THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The Giants' Buster Posey breaks his bat as he hits a single during the eighth inning against the Kansas City Royals on Tuesday.
