Ontheair forRedBluffwereSpencer 1 for 4 with a double, Sin- clair 1 for 3 and Gamboa 2 for 3. Red Bluff was forced to play again that afternoon against Fairfield TC Le- gion. Tanner took the hill for Red Bluff and went 1 2/3 innings and gave way to Swarthout, who shut down Fairfield in the fi- nal 4 1/3 innings to get his second win of the tourna- ment, defeating TC Legion 11-3. Leading hitters for Red Bluff were Youngblood 2 for 3, Button 1 for 2, Gam- boa 2 for 3, Swarthout 2 for 4 with a double, and Jacob Rice 1 for 3 with a double. The win set up a re- match with Capistrano on Sunday morning. In the championship game, Rice took the hill for the Bulls. Rice went 1 2/3 innings before he gave way to Gamboa, who went the final 4 1/3 innings. Red Bluff played well but was unable to overcome an early Capistrano lead and went down in defeat 7-4. Leading hitters were Youngblood 2 for 4, Spen- cer 1 for 3, Button 1 for 3, Gamboa 1 for 4 with a dou- ble, Swarthout 1 for 2, and Sinclair 1 for 3. Red Bluff brought home the second-place state title and trophy. Bulls FROM PAGE 1 thing with a live rush or anything. So, I want to make sure we temper that," Tomsula said. "But yes, we all see the same things on the field with the talent. It's there." Dawson and Pinion have worked tirelessly to find their timing together, striking a bond in the pro- cess. "I enjoy still learning," Dawson said. "I get a super talented kid who can do some special things with the football, and as some- one who studies kicking and punting and is always looking to learn, it's a new guy to learn from and an- other new friend to make." Pinion spent the manda- tory June minicamp work- ing to find a rapport with Dawson, who didn't attend optional organized team activities this offseason. The 6-foot-5, 229-pound Pinion returned home to North Carolina after mini- camp to work with kicking coach Dan Orner, and be- lieves he made strides in his holding. "That was something I want Phil to feel as com- fortable as possible. He's an awesome guy, he's re- ally taught me a lot," Pin- ion said. "I'm looking for- ward to getting out there and doing what I know I can do. Hopefully, the coaches like it." Special teams coordina- tor Thomas McGaughey Jr. said the two will com- pete to handle kickoff du- ties, perhaps a way to keep Dawson focused strictly on his field goals. Dawson converted all 33 of his ex- tra points last year and hit 25 of 31 field goals. "There's nothing new under the sun. They're both very talented. Phil's done it for a long time," Mc- Gaughey said. "Bradley has a great, young leg and we'll see how it shakes out." The returners have been challenged to catch Pin- ion's punts. "He has a boot, he can really kick it. In the spring there was a punt, it was like 65 yards before it even hit the ground," linebacker Nick Moody said. As so many other 49ers walked away from football during the offseason, Daw- son never considered it. "Not one second. When I signed this deal two years ago, I told you guys I ex- pected to perform at an elite level for the term and then some," he said. "I'm more encouraged now that I can do that than I was two years ago when I signed it. I feel better, I feel stronger. I expect big things and I'm really ex- cited to let it rip this fall." 49ers FROM PAGE 1 pionship. His main theme was taking baby steps. "I'm just trying to get better," Woods said after playing nine holes with Da- vis Love III. "I'm just try- ing to get up there where I can win tournaments, get my game organized so I can be consistent on a tournament basis where I'm going to give myself a chance to win each and ev- ery event I play in. That's what I have done over most of my career. And I'd like to get to that point again where I could do it." Even if expectations are low, he is still Tiger Woods. He had one of the larg- est galleries for a morning practice round at Whistling Straits, and he stopped to sign autographs heading to the next tee, which is un- usual for him. Hundreds of fans stood below the steps of the media center when they saw Woods walk in, all of them holding flags for him to sign. Woods, who turns 40 at the end of the year, made it clear at the Memorial (where he shot a career- high 85) that he was in this for the long haul. Different from past swing changes is that he is coping with what he keeps calling a "perfect storm" because the switch followed back surgery and recovery that cost him half the 2014 season. Steve Stricker played with him two days at The Greenbrier Classic, where Woods tied for 32nd while posting his lowest 72-hole score (273) since his last win. "He's going through some down times," Stricker said. "It looks like he's get- ting things pushed back into shape and he's get- ting stronger and health- ier. I've talked to him. He's feeling better. And it's just about getting that confi- dence level back, him set- tling on what he wants to do with his swing and go- ing from there, and then that confidence level will come back. ... I expect him to get it back and get it go- ing again." Still, it's odd for Woods to be at a major and attract so little attention. The majors this year have been about Jor- dan Spieth, the Masters and U.S. Open champion who missed by one shot a chance at the third leg of the Grand Slam at St. An- drews. Still in play at Whis- tling Straits is a chance to sweep the U.S. majors, which has never been done. Rory McIlroy, the world's No. 1 player, returns from an ankle injury that has kept him out since the U.S. Open. Dustin Johnson has had at least a share of the lead in four rounds at the majors this year and comes back to the course where a two-shot penalty on the fi- nal hole cost him a spot in the playoff. Zach Johnson goes for back-to-back majors. Ja- son Day is trying to win his first after being in conten- tion in the last two. It's a long list. And at the moment, that list doesn't include Woods. The greatest player of his generation, at the moment, is an afterthought. Woods was going through swing changes during his two previous trips to Whistling Straits — with Hank Haney in 2004 (tie for 24th) and he was just starting to work with Sean Foley in 2010 (tie for 28th). So it's not as if he has positive memories from this course. "Tiger's game has been flat-lined for the last couple years, and we're starting to see a sign here or there that he might be able to orchestrate something at Whistling Straits," long- time friend Notah Begay III said. "But it's not a golf course that particularly suits his eye or his game." Woods was in conten- tion going into the week- end at his Quicken Loans National until fading, but it was a step. Barring a turn- around, this likely will be his last event of the season. He is at No. 186 in the Fe- dEx Cup, and only the top 125 qualify for the playoffs. "I'm not looking at it like that at all," Woods said. "I'm just trying to get my game better for years to come. ... I'm here now in this position, and as far as my tournament future, if I play well, I play well and I'll play in more events. If I don't, then I have more time to practice and get ready for the following events the next season." Golf FROM PAGE 1 land manager Bob Melvin said. "All the way around, we basically gave them the whole inning. It should have been a different game if we played any kind of de- fense that inning." Oakland was off Mon- day after winning the pre- vious three days, but the rest didn't seem to do much good. "We had a day off," Mel- vin fumed. "It looked like we had about five off in the first couple innings." It's the first time in Blue Jays history the team has recorded two nine-game winning streaks in a sea- son. Toronto won a season- high 11 straight in June. Blue Jays starting pitch- ers have held the opposi- tion to three earned runs or fewer in 15 consecutive games. Hutchison (11-2) allowed two runs and four hits in seven-plus innings. The right-hander hadn't com- pleted seven innings since a complete-game victory over the Chicago White Sox on May 25. Oakland's Marcus Semien said Hutchison "got quick outs when he needed to" against the last- place Athletics. "I had one at-bat where I got 0-2 pretty quick and it seemed like he had the ability to do that all night," Semien said. Hutchison is 9-1 with a 2.68 ERA in 12 home starts and 2-1 with a 9.00 ERA in 11 road outings. After the first two Oak- land batters singled in the third, Hutchison got Crisp to ground into a double play, starting a streak in which he set down 14 of 15. "It's pretty fun to watch when he gets like that," Toronto's Chris Colabello said of Hutchison. "He was pretty impressive today." Hutchison left to a stand- ing ovation after Semien's infield single to begin the eighth inning. Aaron San- chez came on and surren- dered an RBI single to Billy Burns but escaped by strik- ing out Crisp looking and getting Josh Reddick on a comebacker. Roberto Osuna finished for his 11th save. The Blue Jays thought they had turned a dou- ble play to end the top of the first but a replay chal- lenge showed Reddick beat out shortstop Troy Tulow- itzki's relay throw. Former Toronto infielder Danny Valencia followed with an RBI double past a diving Kevin Pillar in center, giv- ing the Athletics a 1-0 lead. Oakland's run snapped a stretch of 26 consecutive scoreless innings by Blue Jays pitchers.
