It weighed on his mind Monday morning before his outing. His turn, time to keep up and do his part. He delivered, all right. Vogelsong won his fourth straight decision, Buster Posey scored the go-ahead run on a double-play groundball by Joaquin Arias in the seventh inning and the Giants beat the Chicago Cubs 3-2 on Monday for a four-game sweep.

In a game fitting of an all-star contest, the North rallied from a 10-2 deficit after seven innings Sunday and won 11-10 at Ron Doryland Field in the Chico Breakfast Lions Club's 10th annual edition of the high school baseball game. The game, pitting the north state's best graduating seniors in a North vs. South format, had plenty of big moments to the end. After the North scored seven times in the eighth to get within 10-9 and took its first lead in the ninth with two more runs, the South threatened a comeback of its own to at least tie it in the bottom of the ninth.

That left the North with a victory that didn't seem pos- sible earlier as the South scored four runs in the fourth before adding two in the fifth and three more in the sixth to take a 10-2 advantage into the game's final innings. be in firm control from that point. Las Plumas catcher Dillon Gilbert, who was 2 for 3, started the four-run fourth with a one-out single. Durham's Garett Southam continued the rally with an RBI single.

Lindhurst's Zucco had the big hit of the sixth, a two-run double to deep cen- ter. But the North seemed to be biding its time as it even saved some of its more her- alded pitchers, including Foothill's Brandon Erick- son, for later in the game. ent story. A two-run single from Red Bluff's Figgs got the North going after a sin- gle and two walks loaded the bases. An RBI single from Erickson continued the rally. Bertotti had an RBI groundout, and Cole- man drove in his third run of the game with a single. A South error, its second of the inning, continued the rally until seven runs had scored. For his effort, Coleman, who caught the last three innings and was 2 for 3 with a double and three RBIs, was named the game's most valuable player and received an engraved bat for the award. to have a chance to close it out in the ninth. After a leadoff single and walk, the South summoned Durham's Southam to the mound. Southam got a long fly ball near the left-field line for one out. After a walk to load the bases, Southam induced a fielder's choice to third base from Yreka's Josh Lee Still, the South appeared two outs, Dunsmuir's Jake Makeel smacked a hot shot to third base that the South fielder couldn't knock down, allowing the tying and go-ahead runs to score. Despite the loss, the South players were grateful for the experience. "It was definitely fun getting to play with the guys. There was cohesion right away," Colby said. "It was even more fun and more professional than I thought it would be." The North, which con- sisted of players from Red Bluff to the Oregon border, now leads the baseball series 6-3. Last year's game was rained out. South play- ers consisted of players from south of Red Bluff to the Marysville area.

Giants pitch- ers accomplished the feat in nine consecutive games from July 1-10, 1988, according to STATS LLC. In this series, Madison Bumgarner, Matt Cain and Barry Zito had won before Vogelsong's impressive per- formance on a rare wrap- around getaway game on a Monday. ''You don't want to be the weak link,'' Vogelsong said. ''Three games like that, I don't want to be the guy who doesn't come through. It's a tough act to follow those three guys, those three out- ings.'' Brandon Crawford hit an RBI double and drove in another run on a fielder's choice to back Vogelsong (4-2), helping the Giants to their season-best fourth straight victory. moved a season-high seven games over .500. The Giants began the day trailing NL West-leading Los Angeles by three games. The Dodgers had a night game at Philadelphia. Cubs reliever Carlos Marmol (0-2) was hit with a line drive on Angel Pagan's infield single in the seventh but stayed in the game after being checked out, then walked Brandon Belt on four pitches to load the bases for Arias. Pagan singled in the fifth for a 28-game home hitting streak, the longest in fran- chise history since 1900. He tipped his batting helmet and clapped his hands at first base in appreciation follow- ing a warm ovation from the sellout crowd of 41,524 on a day that began with sporadic rain in the early innings after the tarp came off late morn- ing.

''We scratched and clawed for the runs we got. These games could have gone either way.'' Sandoval case still in investigation stages Girls/Boys 9th-12th grade, 9 a.m. to noon SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — The Santa Cruz County sheriff's office said Monday it hopes to com- plete the bulk of an investi- gation into sexual assault allegations involving San Francisco Giants slugger Pablo Sandoval by the end of this week, then determine whether to seek charges. Deputy Sheriff April Skalland said detectives are interviewing witnesses and gathering evidence this week, though analysis of some forensic evidence could take longer than a week. Skalland said the accuser is a 21-year-old woman who lives in Santa Cruz County. The woman filed a sexu- al assault complaint around 4:25 a.m. Pacific Friday, Skalland said. A statement from the sheriff's office Monday said the woman met a small group of people in downtown Santa Cruz on Thursday night and then went to a resort in nearby Aptos, where the alleged incident happened. San- doval was contacted at the resort by detectives and cooperated in the investiga- tion, authorities said. "Pablo and his attorney remain cooperative," Skalland said in a phone interview Monday. "Detec- tives are still interviewing people and the investigation is ongoing. They are col- lecting evidence and most of the investigation should be wrapped up this week." The 25-year-old San- doval and lawyer Eric Gef- fon met with authorities Fri- day. Geffon called the sexu- al encounter "consensual." Sandoval was scheduled to play third base Monday in a rehab game for Class-A San Jose at Stockton as he works back from May 4 surgery to remove a broken hamate bone in his left hand. If all went well, man- ager Bruce Bochy said he would then join the Triple- A Fresno club to continue his rehab assignment. While Sandoval could rejoin the Giants this weekend for interleague play against two-time reigning AL champion Texas, Bochy said it "could make more sense" to wait until June 12 in the series opener against Houston following an off day.
