The Lady Cardinals (13- 11 overall, 5-3 league) will host the Tigers (7-16 over- all, 5-3 league) at 6 p.m. They finish the regular sea- son with a visit to Paradise to face the Bobcats (3-19 overall, 1-7 league) at 6 p.m. LosMolinos LOSMOLINOS The Los Mo- linos Lady Bulldogs (14-7 overall, 4-3 league) and Bulldogs (16-7 overall, 4-4 league) were scheduled to host the Burney Raiders on Wednesday evening. Results of those games are posted at redbluffdai- lynews.com. Basketball FROM PAGE 1 game as I am to the pass game," Downing said. "My vision for this offense is right in line with how we see it as a staff and how coach Del Rio sees it as the leader of our staff. I don't anticipate that as a rocky road to walk down." Downing said tweaks to the offense will be subtle and that terminology will remain the same. He has never been a play-caller but is anxious to take it on and confident he has the back- ground to succeed. He broke into the NFL with Minnesota as a low- level assistant when Raid- ers line coach Mike Tice was the head coach and coached quarterbacks in Detroit and Buffalo before coming to Oakland on Del Rio's staff. He considers Dallas of- fensive coordinator Scott Linehan, with whom he worked at Minnesota and Detroit, as a mentor. "I've collected a lot of in- formation and learned as much as I could," Down- ing said. "I'm in tune to the needs of the quarterback position and what it needs to be successful. It's a quar- terback-driven league and we're very, very fortunate to have the one we have in Oakland. "You combine all those things and I believe I'm up to the task to lead an of- fense and be able to call a game on Sunday in a very efficient and hopefully ex- plosive manner." Raiders FROM PAGE 1 club record Don Sutton set from 1972-78. Don Dry- sdale made seven — but not consecutively — from 1958-69. HillandKentaMaedaare likely to follow in the rota- tion, but the final two slots are unclear.

NOTES Former Dodgers pitcher and current broad- caster Orel Hershiser will work as a spring training instructor, a job Greg Mad- dux had last spring train- ing. Maddux is working with his son, Chase, a soph- omore pitcher at UNLV. ... Kershaw thought about pitching for the U.S. in the World Baseball Classic. "It's an honor and I want to do it," he said, "but I thought it was best not to." Dodgers FROM PAGE 1 signments. In addition, Vogt said, "You can take a guy like Madson, who can go two innings, and you don't have to worry because you have the three others to pick up the next few days. It really gives us a lot of depth." The situation is helped by the fact that Madson, who took over the closer role from the injured Doo- little last year, isn't de- manding or even expect- ing a consistent role. "I'm not like that," said the 36-year-old Madson, who was part of World Se- ries title teams with Phila- delphia in 2008 and Kan- sas City in 2015. "I've told Bob that. Games are won and lost in the sixth and seventh innings, too. I en- joy getting out of jams in the sixth, seventh and eighth innings. I enjoy set- ting up. I don't mind clos- ing at all." Doolittle, who had 22 saves as the closer in 2014, said he's healthy and ready to go. And while he hopes he's in the mix for the closer role, "However it shakes out, you're getting a really good, experienced guy in that role, and lead- ing up to that (ninth in- ning). From the sixth in- ning on, you've got a closer- type guy coming into the game," he said. The fact that Madson and Casilla have been on championship teams — Casilla was part of all three recent Giants' title teams — is a boost as well, Doolit- tle said. "There's a trickle-down effect to that. That's going to help the whole team, not just the bullpen. Guys who have pitched into October and know what it takes to get to the World Series, they lead by example." NOTES Melvin said he's unsure when Casilla, strug- gling to fix visa issues in his native Dominican Re- public, will report. "Based on the fact he signed late, we knew he was going to be late," Melvin said. "I'm not worried about him not being here right now be- cause we have such a long spring." ... The A's have 34 pitchers on their roster. "That's a lot," Melvin said. But he pointed out that the team used nearly 30 pitch- ers on the big-league ros- ter the past two years. His message: "Here, everybody gets an opportunity."

In keeping with our mission we have begun a seat campaign. The goal is to upgrade the flooring and replace the seating in the auditorium. To accomplish this vital step in the restoration of the theatre we will need to raise $365,000. The new seating will enhance the art deco theme of the auditorium and be more comfortable and quieter than the present seating. Sponsors, members and patrons of the State Theatre for the Arts are invited to be part of the effort. With your tax deductible donation of $500 per seat you will have a lasting legacy with an engraved recognition plate, bearing your name or the name of a person you wish to honor, affixed to each seat or block of seats you help to purchase. Our goal is to purchase the seats by February 1, 2017 and install them that summer. At this time we would like you to consider making a purchase or a pledge to help in this endeavor. If you have any questions please call (530) 529-2787. You will have the opportunity to pick an area or seat(s) with your purchase or pledge on a first come first serve basis.
