Ontheair our depth, the number of guys we have who we can play and be confident in. It helps obviously when the starters get off to a great start." With playmakers like Iguodala, Leandro Barbosa and Shaun Livingston, the reserves rank fourth in the league with 9.7 assists off the bench. Kevon Looney knocked down his first ca- reer 3-pointer last week, while Anderson Varejao and Brandon Rush are con- tributing key minutes. Center Andrew Bogut admires how every person on Golden State, no matter his prominence, has found a way to accept a role and contribute when called upon. "If we continue to do that, we should get to where we want to get to," Bogut said. "Our bench has always done that. Our bench the last two years, the reason why we're play- ing the way we are, our starters are averaging not starter minutes com- pared to other teams in the league ... these guys come in and do a huge job for us. Everyone that comes in contributes and we don't have anyone on our bench that's kind of a human ci- gar type player. Everyone on our bench can actually come in and play, and play good minutes for us. It's nice to have that luxury. We feel like one through 15, even the guys who are hurt, can come in and play 15-20 on any given night." Kerr said last week that the pressures of this season have worn on the Warriors, from the record start, to the unbeaten record at home in Oracle Arena, to the record still within reach. Golden State is one game ahead of Kerr's Bulls team's pace at this stage — Chicago was 62-8 — with 12 games to go and a tough home matchup with the Clip- pers on Wednesday night. The Warriors are still after the top seed in the Western Conference with San Anto- nio right behind. As Bogut noted, it's go- ing to take everybody. "The bench is something that we take pride in," Kerr said. Warriors FROM PAGE 1 Rarely has so much pomp and circumstance accompanied an exhibi- tion game. Former All- Stars Derek Jeter and Dave Winfield and Major League Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred were among the president's greeters. Secretary of State John Kerry was also in the VIP box, as well as several of Cuba's highest officials. Before the first pitch, Rays players walked over from the dugout to say hello and passed flow- ers and small Cuban flags through the netting to first lady Michelle Obama and first daughter Sasha. "Appreciate you guys," the president said. Obama shared an ex- tended handshake with ace pitcher Chris Archer, who once was a minor leaguer for the Chicago Cubs. He gave Obama, a White Sox fan, a glove owned by Moore. Both Obama and Castro were gone by the third in- ning — with Obama head- ing to the airport to fly south for a state visit to Ar- gentina — but the stands remained packed until the final out. What the game lacked in runs from the home team, it made up for in pageantry. Loud music and danc- ers on the field warmed the crowd up beforehand, and tots in tiny baseball uni- forms escorting the players out during introductions. A white-clad choir sang both countries' national anthems and a flock of doves was unleashed from the center-field stands. The Cuban and U.S. flags flut- tered atop scoreboard. The stadium known as "El Latino" got a face- lift just before the Rays' visit, providing a freshly scrubbed backdrop. "It's beautiful. The field looks marvelous," said Guillermo Gonzalez, an 18-year-old university stu- dent. "We are celebrating a union between two peo- ples, between the United States and Cuba. It's mar- velous." The stands were notably more mellow than your av- erage Cuban game, where the music, dancing and horn-blowing can be prac- tically nonstop. Admission was free, and tickets were distributed to Cubans through organi- zations such as student groups and workplaces. That essentially assured a well-behaved crowd and with no government oppo- nents around to protest. Maria Ester Mendoza Al- varez, a 52-year-old univer- sity professor, agreed that cultural exchanges like this one can help heal geopolit- ical schisms, but "Forget all the politics — we are going to enjoy this as a game, nothing more," Mendoza said. Cuba FROM PAGE 1 ing a monster that carried way out of Tempe Diablo Stadium for Oakland's first run Tuesday. "I asked him if he got all of that one," manager Bob Melvin said with a smile. Valencia, who has bounced around baseball — six teams and 526 total games played in the last six big league seasons — and wants to settle down as the A's third baseman, walked and singled in addition to going deep and he's pushed his average to .419 for the spring. "I'm feeling good, lay- ing off pitches and trying to control the strike zone," Valencia said. Asked if he'd like to carry this streak into the season, he said "I'd love to, but once the season starts, everything that hap- pens here goes away." The A's, now 9-9-3, still have 11 games to go before the season starts, eight in the Cactus League and three against the Giants in the Bay Area. • After having Sam Fuld's shoulder examined by Dr. Neal ElAttrache in Los Angeles, the A's and the outfielder are ponder- ing whether to have the shoulder injected with cor- tisone or PRP (platelet-rich plasma) in an effort to get Fuld back on the field as quickly as possible. The injury has made it impossible for Fuld to open the season on the roster. If one of the injections were to work, he likely could be back sometime in April, however. Fuld remained in Los Angeles on Tues- day and is expected to join the A's before Wednesday night's game against the Mariners in Peoria. • Kendall Graveman pitched into the sixth in- ning against the Angels, and while the starter's numbers (four runs in 5 1/3 innings) weren't great, he came out of the game happy with throwing "a lot of quality pitches." The right-hander particularly worked on his changeup, using it to keep hitters off his fastball. "He got some weak con- tact with his changeup today," Vogt said. "He's throwing it a lot to right- handed hitters. And he threw some better break- ing balls, too." Graveman said he was happy to get his deepest into a game yet this spring, feeling "locked in and keep- ing the walks down." Mel- vin said he liked what he saw from Graveman, par- ticularly "keeping the ball down in the strike zone." • Frequently in spring training managers like to keep their starting pitch- ers from facing teams in the same division because they will meet them up to six times in the regular sea- son. The A's would like to do that now, but it's diffi- cult. Tuesday began a stretch of four games in four days against A.L. West teams (Angels, Mariners, Rang- ers and Angels again) fol- lowed by games home and road against the Royals, a team the A's face in the second weekend of the sea- son. So while Sonny Gray, the A's ace, will throw in a mi- nor league game Thursday, everyone else will start in big league games. "You can't hide everybody," Mel- vin said. A's FROM PAGE 1 said. "But our intent was for him to be back and to go to work. ... He's un- der contract and until that changes, our expectations don't change." A year ago, Baalke shot down an Inter- net report that Kaepernick was available in a trade. Now, a few weeks after the quarterback's agents asked to explore trade possibili- ties, the 49ers are OK with that. Why? "Because I think some- times it helps players work through anything they may have," Baalke said. "It gives them a chance to see what their options really are. It also gives us a chance to say we didn't hold you back from doing that." Kaeper- nick is expected to show when offseason workouts begin April 4, at which time coach Chip Kelly can start a 3 -week evaluation pe- riod before the draft. Kae- pernick is coming off sur- geries to his right thumb, left shoulder and left knee. "The good thing that we have, we're going to be able to get the coaching staff working with these guys for a couple of days prior to the draft," Baalke said. "So they're going to get a better feel for what we have and what's at their disposal to work with." Baalke noted how the franchise's wide- spread changes, such as coaching and roster turn- over, can be "difficult" on young players having to change systems. Kaepe- rnick, 28, is going on his third coach in his sixth season. Notes • Guard Zane Beadles of- ficially signed his contract (three years, $11.75 mil- lion) on Tuesday, and he's excited about returning to an up-tempo offense. "The up-tempo offense and that style of play is something I enjoy," Bea- dles said on a media con- ference call. "My last cou- ple years in Denver, that's really what we majored in, playing that no-huddle, up- tempo offense. And I had a blast playing in it." The Broncos finished first in both points and yards per game in 2013, and they were in the top four in both categories in 2012. Beadles left the Broncos for a five- year deal with the Jaguars, only to be cut earlier this month after two seasons there. 49ers FROM PAGE 1 Scoreboard Baseball SPRINGTRAINING AMERICAN LEAGUE W L Pct Toronto 13 4 .765 Detroit 14 8 .636 Houston 12 8 .600 Chicago 11 8 .579 Los Angeles 11 8 .579 Minnesota 11 9 .550 Texas 11 10 .524 Cleveland 10 10 .500 New York 9 9 .500 A's 9 9 .500 Seattle 10 11 .476 Tampa Bay 8 9 .471 Kansas City 10 13 .435 Bo st on 9 1 3 .4 09 Baltimore 5 13 .278 NATIONAL LEAGUE W L Pct Arizona 17 4 .810 Washington 13 4 .765 Philadelphia 14 6 .700 Colorado 10 8 .556 Los Angeles 10 9 .526 Milwaukee 10 10 .500 Miami 8 10 .444 New York 7 10 .412 St. Louis 7 10 .412 Cincinnati 9 13 .409 Giants 9 13 .409 San Diego 7 12 .368 Chicago 7 13 .350 Pittsburgh 6 13 .316 Atlanta 6 16 .273 NOTE: Split-squad games count in the standings; games against non-major league teams do not.
