Ontheair dersonsmackedtwohome runs in one inning, giving Redwood Empire a com- fortable lead going into the bottom of the third inning. But Red Bluff would an- swer back and score seven more runs to win the game. In the first inning, Red Bluff's Bryce Tweedt led off the game with a home run. In the second inning, Red Bluff's Huhn, Arvig and Bryce Tweedt walked when Blake Tweedt came up to bat with the bases loaded. With a full count, Blake Tweedt crushed the ball, hitting a grand slam and putting Red Bluff ahead, 5-2. Redwood Empire then scored nine runs in the third inning, but Red Bluff didn't let that stop them. Going into the bottom of the sixth inning, Red- wood Empire was leading 11-9 when Carver singled. Redwood Empire's Hayden Bode induced a groundout to Huhn and struck out Ar- vig, leaving Carver alone on the bases. With two outs, Red Bluff didn't give up or lose hope. Freeman hit a shot to bring home Carver, then Bryce Tweedt's single brought home Freeman. With Bryce Tweedt on the bases, Turnbow ripped a ball to the outfield, bring- ing home Tweedt to end the game. Arvig picked up the win on the mound, strik- ing out five of the 10 bat- ters he faced. This year's Red Bluff team includes play- ers Blake Tweedt, Bryce Tweedt, Chamberlin Turn- bow, Jakob Fregoso, Kur- tis Rodriguez, Luke Arvig, Christopher Huhn, Garrett Freeman, Bryan Acree, Jor- dan Shank, Logan Carver and Justin Hinkston. The team is managed by Vince Rodriguez, and coached by Wes Arvig and Rob Huhn. All-Stars FROM PAGE 1 the overall standings. As long as he doesn't let either of them get too far away from him on Friday and Saturday, then Froome will be sipping champagne and slipping back into the yellow jersey on Stage 21 on Sunday, on the Champs-El- ysees in Paris. "Two more stages left of real racing," he said. "We're focused on two guys." Romain Bardet, on the other hand, was focused on himself. France hasn't had a Tour winner since Ber- nard Hinault in 1985, and there are some that think 24-year-old Bardet could be next after his sixth place last year. But he's not been consistent enough to im- prove on that this time, so he wanted to at least win a stage. He did. In style. Bardet rode alone down the huge Glandon pass and up the hairpin bends of the Montvernier Laces to take a solo victory at Saint-Jean- De-Maurienne on the sec- ond of four days in the Alps. Pierre Rolland of the Europcar team made it a 1-2 French finish, coming in 33 seconds behind the winner for AG2R La Mon- diale. As they did on the first Alpine stage on Wednes- day, Froome's rivals again tested him but couldn't make him crack over seven climbs. "Everyone attacked," Froome said. Two-time champion Al- berto Contador showed spirit, with a burst of speed on the 14-mile long climb up to the Glandon pass, but he couldn't claw back the minutes he lost on Wednes- day in a downhill crash. "One of the hardest days for me," Contador said. "I was in pain." Froome, Contador, and other podium contend- ers finished together in a group of 10 riders who rode in three minutes be- hind the stage winner. Bar- det remains too far down the overall standings — in 10th place, nearly 13 min- utes behind Froome — to have realistic ambitions for the podium this year. But he is the highest-placed French rider so far. Bardet rode away at the top of the punishing Glandon climb — the hard- est Alpine ascent so far — and built a lead on the long descent. He held it up the Montvernier Laces' spec- tacular switchbacks. "A crazy stage," Bardet said. "I can't believe it." Without fans, the telege- nic ascent was eerily quiet. "Almost every kilometer (mile) of the race up un- til now you've had spec- tators all the way, and we had three kilometers there where there was no one," Froome said. "You can un- derstand why ... the road really was quite narrow." Cycling FROM PAGE 1 we dug in May is probably pretty tough to overcome. "With the deadline looming, and the market soon to be rife with a lot of opportunities, we thought this was the proper time." It didn't become proper until the Astros, two games behind the Angels in the West entering Thursday, said they were willing to dig deep into their list of best prospects. The A's were going to get right-handed starter Daniel Mengden, but they wouldn't make the deal until another Class-A player, catcher Jacob Not- tingham, was included. Kazmir, an All-Star after signing with the A's before the 2014 season, said he was disappointed that the A's never played as well as they should have this year. "We were a better team than we showed," the left- hander said, adding that he was disappointed to leave, but excited to go home and pitch in the middle of a pennant race. He will probably face the A's when the Astros come to town in two weeks. Because they weren't better than they showed, Kazmir was traded, and Beane acknowledged he probably won't be the last. Second baseman/outfielder Ben Zobrist has been scouted by half a dozen clubs, including the Mets, Yankees, Pirates, Royals, Nationals and Cubs. Closer Tyler Clippard, lefty reliev- ers Eric O'Flaherty and Fernando Abad and first baseman Ike Davis could be gone, too. A longer shot is right fielder Josh Red- dick, who has been looked at by the Angels, among others. "It's possible," Beane said of moving more vet- erans off the roster. "We have to be realistic. We still face the headwinds of the injuries even beyond Doo (closer Sean Doolittle) and Coco (left fielder and lead- off hitter Coco Crisp) with Jesse Hahn and things like that." Hahn has been shut down for a month with a right forearm strain, mean- ing with Kazmir traded the A's have two holes in the ro- tation. The A's pushed Drew Pomeranz into Kazmir's scheduled starting spot Thursday against the Blue Jays and likely will call up Chris Bassitt to start Sat- urday against the Giants in Hahn's spot. If the A's don't want to go with Pomeranz in the rotation over the long haul, Oakland could call on 2002 Cy Young win- ner Barry Zito. "He started out in spring training as a long shot," Melvin said of Zito. "All he's done has been to pitch himself into contention." In moving to the Astros, Houston native Kazmir goes to a team that led the AL West most of the first half and that is just two games out of first with the Angels having moved into the top spot with a seven- game winning streak. Trade FROM PAGE 1 There was no pregame pitcher/catcher prep work at all between Pomeranz and catcher Stephen Vogt. For an A's team that likes to do things by the num- bers and likes to play the percentages, the day was far from ideal. The bull- pen essentially had to suck up all nine innings, which means the pen is going to be short heading into Fri- day's game against the Gi- ants at AT&T Park. Arnold Leon, called up from Triple-A Nashville, pitched the most, 3 1/3 in- nings, and it's probable the right-handed reliever will be sent down Friday so the A's can get a fresh arm in the bullpen. Dan Otero, the club's nominal long man, is going to need a day off after the three innings and 42 pitches he contrib- uted Thursday in relief of Pomeranz. Pomeranz said he'd never started a big league game with such short no- tice. "When you find out that day, it's tough to address or change much," Pomer- anz said. "You've just got to get prepared and get back into the routine I usually do when I start." Overall, the rotation is in a state of flux for the 44- 53 A's. Not only has Kazmir been traded away, but Jesse Hahn is on the disabled list, waiting for his right forearm to feel better. So far, it hasn't happened. Chris Bassitt likely will be called up to make Sat- urday's start, the one that otherwise belonged to Hahn, and Melvin said the plan is to go with Pomer- anz in the rotation for now. Lurking in the back- ground, however, is 2002 Cy Young Award win- ner Barry Zito. He was a long shot to make a con- tribution in spring train- ing after signing late with the club, but he has been pitching better at Nash- ville lately, and he's a left- hander with experience. Since the A's just lost a left- hander with experience, he could be a good fit. Whoever starts for the A's, they will need more support than the two runs Oakland produced Thurs- day against knuckleball specialist R.A. Dickey. "Dickey just had his stuff going today," Billy Butler said. "There was lots of late movement, and anybody would find it tough to hit himthewayhethrewtoday." Notes • Leon's promotion to Oakland was his fourth this season. He had pitched six times in his first three trips up with a 4.26 ERA. "I feel more comfortable, I know these guys a little, and I know the system," Leon said. He flew in from Colorado Springs after a 5 a.m. wake-up call.
