big leagues — and led the A's in strikeouts (183) and innings (200). Gray has been sharp this spring training while telling teammates and re- porters he feels much bet- ter than he did a year ago. Pitching in big games is nothing new for Gray. He pitched Games 2 and 5 against Detroit in the 2013 AL Division Series, going 1-1 in the two postseason starts. "He's just that much more comfortable now in the role that he's in," Mel- vin said. "He's a little bet- ter about harnessing that energy, even though it's al- ways there." Melvin said Scott Ka- zmir will follow Gray in the rotation. Beyond that there is a lot of uncertainty, a point Melvin emphasized when he noted Monday he might not know the full rotation until the end of spring training. Gray FROMPAGE1 The game ended in a 1-1 tie. Red Bluff's Mikenna Corry scored the North's first goal in the first half. And in the second half, Pleasant Valley's Brenna Meier tied it up on a ball that was batted around be- fore eventually finding the back of the net. Meier, who normally plays goalkeeper for the Vikings, was play- ing forward in the second half, before finishing out the game as keeper. Elisabeth Earley, the goalkeeper for the Paradise Bobcats, had the chance to play forward early in the game. "It felt so good," Earley said. "I'm gonna miss it a lot. You don't realize how much you're gonna miss it until you get out there. I kinda hated that it's my last game." Defense was excep- tional in the game as both teams rarely had a chance to take shots at each oth- er's goals, giving way to an even game. Orland coach Tim Mil- horn had the honor of coaching the North team. "It was difficult to have 17 or 18 players you've never met before," Milhorn said. "They all had fun today. It's an honor for them to be out here playing. It's their last high school soccer event." Playinf for the North team were Corning's Pa- tricia Ibarra and Adela Flores. BOYS SOUTH 4, NORTH 3 For the boys portion of the all- star game, the South team jumped out to a 3-0 lead. Led by Willows coach Jose Cano and PV coach Mike Vought, the South team jumped on the board first with a goal off the foot of Willows leading scorer Da- vid Gonzalez. By halftime, the South led 3-1. But, within the last 15 minutes of the game and the score 4-1, the score grew closer as the North scored two more goals to make the score 4-3. Playing for the North team was Corning's Fidel Angeles.

FRANKLIN — THE ASSOCIATED PRESS San Francisco Giants' Joaquin Arias connects on a home run against the Cincinnati Reds during the fi h inning in Goodyear, Ariz. Bywireservices GOODYEAR, ARIZ. Sergio Romo hated free agency. He hated the notion of leaving the Giants even more. Hence, when the 33-year- old reliever took the mound for his first spring train- ing game of 2015, he was almost giddy with excite- ment and glee. "It's good to be back, get some adrenalin pumping, to hear your name being announced, and when you look in, you have your eight guys playing behind you," Romo said, smiling widely. He could even joke about having "an infinity ERA after just two pitches" when Cincinnati's Bren- nan Boesch hammered a 1-0 pitch over the fence in right field as soon as he en- tered the game in the bot- tom of the fourth. But Romo, who has been set back this spring due to some shoulder soreness, just as quickly kicked it in gear, getting a groundout, fly to right and a strike- out to finish his spring de- but on just 11 pitches. He was so efficient he thought about asking about a sec- ond inning, but decided not to push it. "I felt good," he said. :I'd like that sinker to sink, but I threw all my pitches and didn't hold back — fast- ball, sinker, slider, change. It worked. One got hit well, but it's spring training. Get it out now." Romo got a lot out in his first postgame meet- ing with the media. He talked about how much he loves being back with the Giants and how torturous the free agent process was, even though he only had to wait roughly seven weeks until he re-signed with San Francisco on Dec. 22, 2014. "For me, the uncer- tainty was something I didn't take too much of a liking to this offseason, not knowing," he said. "I was sitting there starting my workouts going, 'Wait, I'm working out and I'm working hard, but who am I working for? I know I'm working for myself and my family, but what colors am I wearing?' " The Giants informed Romo immediately that they wanted him back, but they told him to be pa- tient, that they wanted to do make some other moves before addressing his new contract, which wound up being for two years and $15 million. "I tried to wait as pa- tiently as I could," he said. "But that dead time is hard to get by. I was saying, 'We can get this done in five minutes, just call me.' " • Minor leaguer Chris Stratton started in place of Tim Lincecum and gave up seven hits but only one earned run in two innings. The Giants lost 10-4 to the Reds and managed just four hits, the runs coming on two-run homers by Joa- quin Arias and Carlos Tri- unfel. A's Rob Manfred said that dealing with the A's sta- dium situation in the Bay Area is at the top of his to- do list, but Major League Baseball's new commis- sioner made it clear that his role will be as a facilitator and not as the point man. "My preference at this point is to move in lock step with the A's," Manfred said, "to support them, to guide them, to give them our best views so that we're working together to get a resolution to the stadium situation." Manfred, who took over from Bud Selig at the top of the MLB pyramid two months ago, demurred when asked about the pos- sibility of the A's moving from Oakland to San Jose, saying the San Jose ques- tion is "under ongoing lit- igation." He could use the com- missioner's best interests of baseball power to force the pace of a problem that has been on baseball's doorstep for the better part of a de- cade with the Oakland Col- iseum aging badly, but he seems disinclined to do so. Manfred was in Mesa to talk with the A's players and staff, and later in the day took in the A's-Dodgers game in Glendale, a 10-5 Oakland loss after the A's had an early 4-0 lead. Catcher Josh Phegley drove in three of the A's four runs with a solo homer in the second and two-run double in the third.
