They know from recent ex- perience with second base- man Joe Panik that symp- toms often don't manifest themselves right away. "Yeah, he seems fine. He said he felt fine, which is good," Giants shortstop Brandon Crawford said. "But Joe thought he felt good last year, also. "You hope he feels fine tomorrow. He's going to come in and probably get his heart rate going and see how he feels. You don't re- ally know with these inju- ries." The Giants added no in- sult by losing their home opener. Matt Moore was brilliant over eight innings, and in a play not often seen beyond Little League, the Giants scored three runs on the pitcher's swinging bunt in the fourth inning. Moore had missed a sign and tried to bunt the first pitch with the bases loaded, then swung at the next offering and hit a dribbler to the first base side of the mound. Walker fielded it and skipped his throw to the plate as Crawford scored. Panik came home as catcher Jeff Mathis scrambled to the backstop and threw to Walker covering the dish. Walker tried to snap his tag but neglected to catch the ball first. So Panik scored, and Jarrett Parker dashed home as well. It was the old "run thrown in," or RTI, as Tim Flannery called it, that the Giants used to their benefit on a couple of occasions in the 2014 postseason. Crawford added a sacri- fice fly and Melancon did not allow the tying run to come to the plate while re- cording his second save in less than 24 hours, and his first in front of his new fans. "Mark's a beast," Moore said. "I'll take him every day. It's just three wins we have, I know, but head- ing forward, I know what we've got here." Last year, in the final game at AT&T Park, Moore did not have Melancon to pitch the ninth. He held the Cubs to a run on two hits in eight innings, and the Gi- ants bullpen blew a three- run lead in the ninth in a series-clinching loss. In the first game at China Basin since that night, Moore held the Dia- mondbacks to a run on two hits in eight innings. And Melancon shut the door. "The second start, that's far enough," Bochy said of Moore, who had thrown just 94 pitches. "Could I have sent him back out? Sure. But that's the luxury of having one of the elite closers in the game." The Giants also have one of the game's elite catch- ers. They already under- stand what life is like with- out Posey, who sustained a season-ending ankle injury in a brutal home plate col- lision in 2011. They are optimistic this time. Bochy said the club wasn't immediately plan- ning to bring up another catcher from Triple-A Sac- ramento; Tim Federowicz would be in line because Trevor Brown is on the dis- abled list with ankle and hip injuries. But the Giants are also wizened enough to know that they cannot know for sure. "Well, it's one of the worst sounds you can hear in baseball, the ball hitting the helmet," Bochy said. "That's a moment when you hold your breath. I got out there as quick as I could. My hope is he's fine because of the type of hel- mets we have now and the protection they provide." Bochy said there was no discussion about letting Posey stay in the game be- cause, as a catcher, he could be at risk for a foul tip that would have an exponen- tially devastating effect. Would Bochy have let Posey try to continue if he played a different posi- tion? The manager said he wasn't sure. • The Giants reinstated right-hander Hunter Strickland from the pater- nity list and returned left- hander Steven Okert to Tri- ple-A Sacramento. … The team held a video tribute to retired left-hander Ja- vier Lopez, and presented him with a plaque on the field during the game. … One of the newest Giants employees, Barry Bonds, was introduced to chants of "Barry-Barry." Bonds is back with the organization as a special advisor to CEO Larry Baer. … Who is the Giants' emergency catcher now? "He just found out late in the game," Bochy said. "It's Aaron Hill." Giants FROM PAGE 1 but gradually morphed into a changeup pitcher by the time he needed to go through the K.C. lineup a third time. He allowed a single in the first and another in the fifth. He also walked three, which he wasn't happy about, but no batter made it past second base on his watch Closer Sean Doolittle, who would end the game by striking out former team- mate with two out and two on, wasn't surprised that Cotton was better than his first game (five runs in 4.2 innings), but he was im- pressed with the rookie's composure. "Itwasintenseoutthere," Doolittle said. "It was an amazing job. He really used his fastball early in the game and his off-speed stuff later. For a young guy to bounce back in this en- vironment here, with every- thinggoingon,that'sagood sign." Cottonsaidgoingintothe gamethatitwasanhonorto pitch in the opener with all the "excitement that would begoingon."Heenjoyedthe big stage, and controlled it rather than letting it con- trol him. "I came into this game thinking I'd have 90 to 100 pitches to throw, and I wanted to each and ev- ery one of them at 100 per- cent, and I did that, despite three walks," Cotton said. "I knewthe(pregameceremo- nies were) going to happen so I was prepared. I just kept my same routine and told myself 'you've got to win today.' "I knew it was a big day for them with Yordano hav- ing passed, but I had to keep my emotions in check by telling myself we had a game to win." After Cotton's last time out, reliever Ryan Madson and Vogt both told him his deliveryneededmorefollow through. On Monday, that was no issue. "I worked on my side day on finishing my pitches," Cotton said. "So my stuff was a lot sharper and the results were good." Results generally have been good for Cotton. He's made seven big league starts, the A's are 5-2 in thosestartsandhe'sallowed one or zero runs in five of the seven. On Monday, how- ever, Kansas city starter Ian Kennedywassharptoo,save fora3-0fastball hitoverthe right-center field wall by Khris Davis with a man on in the fourth. It wasn't clear even to Davis that the ball would carry out, but he got a boost fromthewindforhisfourth homer. "It was a middle-in fast- ball and I told myself not to try to do too much with it," Davissaid."Iwashopingthe wind would carry it a little." But mostly Davis, like he teammates, wanted to talk about Cotton. "That was a great job," Davis said. "He was an all- around stud out there." • Sonny Gray threw on the side before Monday's game against the Royals and he's been cleared to ad- vance to the next level of his recovery from this spring's right lat injury. Manager Bob Melvin said Gray will throw two sets of 15 pitches each against hitters before Thursday'sfinaleinK.C."He threw 35 pitches, but then sat down and got back up and threw a simulated in- ning," Melvin said of Mon- day's effort. • Chris Bassitt, who is hoping for a mid-season re- turntotherotationafterlast year'sligamentreplacement surgery,threwtwosetsof15 pitches each on Monday at Class-A Stockton. Melvin said the reports on Bassitt were good. A's FROM PAGE 1 after the 49ers went 2-14 last season and endured a franchise-record 13-game losing streak. "Kyle set the tone right off the bat," quarterback Brian Hoyer said. "Obvi- ously everybody knows what the result was here last year. It's our job not to let that happen again." Added defensive end De- Forest Buckner: "There's just a new energy being here. Everybody is ready to redeem themselves from last year." • NaVorro Bowman is confident "someone" will sign former 49ers team- mate Colin Kaepernick, who's been a free agent since March 3. "He's proven he can play at this level," Bowman said. "You know, he's made a choice that's kind of had a little back- lash from it. "He will be fine. Some- one will give him a job," Bowman continued. "He's not a bad guy or anything. That's what matters than anything in the NFL, if you can play at this level and if you're character's great. I wish him the best." Running back Carlos Hyde also expressed dis- belief that Kaepernick remains unemployed. "Yeah, I am surprised. I've seen some quarter- backs got signed that Kap is way better than, in my opinion," Hyde said. "But I'm not a GM, not a head coach. That's out of my league." • The 49ers and Raid- ers won't be renewing their exhibition series this summer, having dis- continued their annual matchup after fan violence marred a 2011 meeting at Candlestick Park. The 49ers will open at Kansas City (Aug. 10-14), host the Denver Broncos (Aug. 17-21), visit the Min- nesota Vikings (Aug. 27) and wrap up exhibition play against the Los Ange- les Chargers at Levi's Sta- dium (Aug. 31). • Hyde said his offsea- son focus has been on reha- bilitating the left knee he sprained Dec. 24 at Los An- geles. Said Hyde: "I'm back to running. I can cut, just not all the way I like to run, but I'm making improve- ment." Hyde hopes to pass a running test Tuesday. He is entering the final season of his rookie contract, and a potential extension does not appear imminent, ac- cording to a source. • Quarterback Deshaun Watson, who led Clem- son to the past two sea- son's national champion- ship game, will visit the 49ers' Santa Clara facil- ity on Tuesday, Shanahan said. Shanahan conducted a workout last week with North Carolina quarter- back Mitchell Trubisky and wide receiver Ryan Switzer. • Running back Tim Hightower will wear No. 26 after initially being as- signed No. 21, which hasn't been worn since Frank Gore left the team after 2014. Hightower posted on social media that he would request a number change and that No. 21 "should be retired." Gore is the 49ers' all-time leading rusher. 49ers FROM PAGE 1 Scoreboard MLB NATIONALLEAGUE WEST DIVISION W L Pct GB Arizona 6 2 .750 _ Colorado 5 2 .714 1/2 Los Angeles 4 3 .571 11/2 San Diego 3 4 .429 21/2 Giants 3 5 .375 3 CENTRAL DIVISION W L Pct GB Cincinnati 5 2 .714 _ Chicago 4 2 .667 1/2 Pittsburgh 3 3 .500 11/2 St. Louis 2 4 .333 21/2 Milwaukee 2 5 .286 3 EAST DIVISION W L Pct GB New York 4 3 .571 _ Miami 3 3 .500 1/2 Washington 3 3 .500 1/2 Philadelphia 3 4 .429 1 Atlanta 1 5 .167 21/2 Monday's games Giants 4, Arizona 1 Cincinnati 7, Pittsburgh 1 N.Y.
