The most recent play by a prolific localauthor approaches territory so dark, a

healthy dose of the writer’s trademarkhumor is required to make the subjectpalatable.

“The Anthrax Factory: A RomanticComedy,” an original work by JohnChristgau, a Belmont resident who hasworked as a local high school teacher andcoach, premiers Thursday, April 21, andruns t hrough the weekend.

The play focuses on t he adventures of aninterrogation specialist stationed in Iraqwho terrorizes her commanding officerand, in the process, illustrates the harshreality of the human rights violations suf-fered by t hose imprison ed during wartime.

Christgau said the play, which will bepresented at the Little Theater on th e cam-pus of Hillsdale High School, needed aligh t-hearted approach to be enjoy able for

the audience.“The tragedy of thi s is s o horribl e that I

don’t think you can face it without findingsomething to laugh about at the sametime,” he said.

As the work deals with tragedy,Christgau suffered his own personal strug-gles while writing the play.

Roughly eight months into writing theproduction, Christgau suffered an infec-tion, which required amputation of thelower portion of his left leg.

He spent the following several monthsrehabilitating from the surgery beforeagain trying to finish h is work, which hefound was a form of catharsis during therecovery process.

In an effort to bringthe play from the pageto the stage, Christgauapplied for grant fund-ing from prestigious

author Stephen King,who offers financing toworks of authors whoovercame personal hur-dles.

The HavenFoundation, which was formed after Kingwas almost killed when hit by a carelessdriver in 1 999, answered Christg au’s call.

Christgau said the grant money, in con- junct io n wit h o th er fin anci ng so urces, hasbeen integral in th e ability to create a pro-duction equivalent to a professional stageshow.

Allison Gamlen, an acclaimed actressand drama teacher at Hillsdale HighSchool, plays Mary, the story’s heroine.

Christgau praised Gamlen’s grace on t hestage.

“Oh she is good,” he said. “She is themaster of the role.”In the days leading up to opening night,

Christgau said he finds great joy in seeinghis production come to life as the actorsfind their voice and begin to give person-ality to their characters.

“It’s fun to watch t he whole group pull ittogether,” he said.

Christgau has a deep-seated appreciationfor the synchronization, coordination andteamwork required to make a stage showcome to life, after spending years on thesidelines coaching.

Years after retiring, basketball remainsthe only passion which could rivalChristgau’s ambition for writing, which

has resulted in the publication of morethan a dozen books.

The former coach of th e Crestmoor HighSchool basketball team, an experiencewhich inspired one of Christgau’s three

books about the game, said he continuesto appreciate the art of performance on th ecourt.

A historian who has also publishedbooks regarding the progression of thesport, from the evolution of the jump shotto a famous confrontation between theMinneapolis Lakers and HarlemGlobetrotters, Christgau said he has seenbasketball break down walls o f prejudice.

Some of those same themes carrythrough to his most recent work, as “TheAnthrax Factory: A Romantic Comedy,”focuses on the value of finding commonal-ity between opposing forces, even undertremendous pressure.

He said he hoped the play could shinesome light on the need for a more diplo-matic approach to foreign affairs, out of

respect for human rights.“If our intelligence is sophisticatedenough, without invading personal priva-cy, we can have sys tems that catch th e badguys without invading the constitutionalrights of you and me.”

“The Anthrax Factory: A RomanticComedy,” opens 7 p. m., April 21 and runsthrough Sunday, April 23, at the LittleTheater at Hillsdale High School, 3115Del Monte St.., San Mateo. Tickets are$20, and available at picatic.com or at thedoor.

FRESNO — Salmon caught off the PacificCoast may be harder to find in stores thissummer and cost more with tight restric-tions imposed on fishermen who anticipatepulling fewer of the prized catch into theirboats, officials said Friday.

Four years o f bruising drought i n t he Westhas strained inland rivers where salmonspawn, putting the fish in sharp decline.

Restrictions announced this week leavefisherman nearly half of the opportunity tocatch salmon compared to last year, underthe recommendations of an industry over-sight body.

“If you like the goo d stuff, it’s going t o beharder to find this year,” said Dave Bitts, aEureka, Californi a, fis herman and adviser t othe Pacific Fishery Management Council.

The council oversees commercial andrecreational salmon fishing off the coastsof California, Oregon and Washington. It ismade up of industry representatives, scien-tists and government officials.

The National Marine Fisheries Service isexpected to adopt the council’s recommen-dations on May 1.

Salmon depend for survival on cold andabundant water flowing down rivers, such asthe Sacramento and Klamath, where the fishmigrate and spawn in three-year cycles.California has endured the driest four-yearperiod on record before this winter’s ElNino delivered some relief with a near-aver-age snowpack.

The salmon industry in California andOregon alo ne is valued at $2 bi llio n annual-ly. It supports 23,000 jobs in California,according to the Golden Gate SalmonAssociation.

“While fishermen are not happy to haverestricted seasons , th ey realize their respon-sibility to be good stewards,” said JohnMcManus, the association’s executivedirector.

The fishing industry and farmers in

California’s fertile Central Valley are in aconstant struggle over the same river waterto sustain their livelihoods. The last twoyears have been disastro us for salmon in theSacramento River.

Just 3 percent of California’s juvenilewinter-run salmon survived in 2015 com-pared to 5 percent survival the previousyear, the Nation al Oceanic and AtmosphericAdministration’s fisheries agency hasreported.

Bernie Sanders speaks with media and supporters during his visit to the Vatican.

By Ken Thomas and Nicole Winfield

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

VATICAN CITY — Bern ie Sanders is sued aglob al call to actio n at the Vatican on Fridayto address “immoral and unsustainable”wealth inequality and poverty, using thehigh-profile gathering to echo one of thecentral platforms of his presidential cam-paign.

The Democratic s enato r from Vermontcited Pope Francis and St. John Paul IIrepeatedly during his speech to the Vaticanconference commemorating the 25thanniversary of a landmark teaching docu-ment from John Paul on s ocial and econom-ic justice after the Cold War.

Sanders arrived in Rome hours after wrap-ping up a debate in New York Thursdaynight, saying the opp ortunity to address theVatican conference was too meaningful topass up. The roughly 24-hour visit precedesTuesday’s crucial New York primary, whichSanders must do well in to maintain a vi ablechallenge to Democratic front-runnerHillary Clinton .

Pope Francis apologized that he couldn’tpersonall y greet participant s at the Vaticanconference. No meeting with Sanders wasexpected.

But the trip gave Sanders a moment on th eworld stage, placing him alongside priests,bish ops, academics and two South American

presidents. Sanders hasbeen at a disadvantageduring his campaignagainst Clinton,President BarackObama’s former secretaryof state, on issues of for-eign policy but he waspeppered with questionsfrom academics andecclesiastics in a manner

that might have been afforded a head of

state.Sanders trails Clinton in the Democraticprimaries but the trip to th e Vatican and hismassive rally earlier this week with 27,000people in New York City may have offered aglimpse of the senator’s aim to become aprogressive leader, win or lose.

The discussions gave him a chance toexpand on his core campaign messagesabout the need to reform banking regula-tions, campaign finance rules and highereducation. Asked about inequality in publiceducation, he said it was “beyond disgrace-ful” and cited challenging conditions inDetroit’s school system.

He told the audience that rather than aworld economy that looks out for the com-mon go od, “we have been left with an econ -omy operated for the top 1 percent, who get

richer and richer as the working class, theyoung and the poor fall further and furtherbehind.”

LOS ANGELES — If Bernie Sanders canpull off an upset in California, it will be astory that got its start on HollywoodBoulevard.

In a building that saw the likes of filmstars and movie moguls and later was dam-aged in the 1994 Northridge earthquake,Sanders’ newly leas ed Los Angeles h eadquar-ters is where his campaign will ultimatelygo big or go home. Steering the effort isMichael Ceraso, a rangy, goateed 34-year-old who, seven month s ago, was working asa deputy program director for Airbnb. He’dnever run a statewide campaign .

Sanders is trailin g in st ate polls b ut “whatgives us an advantage is people po wer,” saidCeraso, alluding to the fervent crowds of 20 -and 30-somethings at the senator’s full-house rallies.

With time growing short in the primary

season, California’s June 7 contest could bea decisiv e sho wdown. Sanders told cheeringsupporters in a Los Angeles theater inMarch that if he wins delegate-richCalifornia by a significant margin “we aregoing together to th e White House.”

But to make that happen, Ceraso and his

team will have to take on the Clinton poli t-ical po werhouse.

After helping to guide Sanders to victoryin New Hampshire, Ceraso says he’s notintimidated by Hillary Clinton’s team,

which has won electio ns h ere before and hasdeep political ties that date back a genera-tion to her husband Bill Clinton’s adminis-tration.

Ceraso broke into presidential politics i n2008 when he joined then-Sen. BarackObama’s presidential campaign, and lastyear managed a successful campaign for alocal school board. His Twitter feed, a blurof posts about the campaign and tributes tobasketball star Kobe Bryant, urges follow-ers to “Stay Frosty Folks” — slang for“keep cool. ”

Clinto n comes to t he race a tested winner.In 2008, when Democrats around the coun-try were embracing Obama, the former FirstLady notched an 8-point win in California.Bill Clinton locked in the 1992 Democratic

presidential nomination in t he state, whichhe carried in his two presidential contests.He visited California more than 70 timesduring h is two terms as president.

AUSTIN, Texas — Defending a Texas statelaw banning the sale of sex toy s, Republicanpresidential candidate Ted Cruz argued in a2007 court brief that individuals have nolegal right to use them, even in the privacy of their own bedrooms.

Prior to becoming a U.S. senator, Cruz was

for more than five years Texas’ solicitor gen-eral, arguing the state’s legal positions incourt. He often cites that experience to bur-nish h is credentials as a Christian conserva-tive.

On the campaign trail, Cruz frequentlyreminds audiences that he used the job todefend capital punishment and oppose abor-tion, while preserving the words “UnderGod” in the Pledge of Allegiance and defend-ing a monument to the Ten Commandmentson th e state Capitol grounds.

But Cruz makes no mention of a decade-oldcase he lost — his defense of Texas’ sex-toyban. The story was first reported by MotherJones magazine.

The law, app roved in the1970s , banned as obsceneany device “useful prima-rily for the stimulation of human genital organs.”The same law also declaredthat anyone possessingsix or more such itemswas presumed to be pro-moting sex-toy usage

through manufacture,sale, lending, delivery or ot her means.

Joanne Webb, a 43-year-old mother of three and former fifth-grade teacher, wasarrested in 200 3 after selling a sex toy to anundercover police officer during a gatheringof adult co uples si milar to a Tupperware partyheld at a home in a Fort Worth suburb.

Though the criminal charges against Webbwere eventually dropped, a collection of sex-toy companies sued in federal court to chal-lenge the constit utionality of the state’s ban.

A three-judge panel of the U.S. DistrictCourt of Appeals later ruled that the Texaslaw violated 14th Amendment privacyrights.

ABOARD THE USS JOHN C. STENNIS —For the second time in five months, DefenseSecretary Ash Carter landed aboard a U.S. ai r-craft carrier in the bitterly contested SouthChina Sea, sending a deliberate message toChina on American p ower in the region.

With a key Asia Pacific ally at his side,Carter’s visit aboard the USS John C.Stennis underscores persistent complaintsfrom the U.S. and its allies in the regionabout China’s military build-up in theSouth Chin a Sea. Beijing has been creatingman-made islands, and equipping manywith runways, fighter aircraft and otherweapons.

Carter stood along side Philippine DefenseSecretary Volt aire Gazmin as they watchedU.S. Navy fighter jets launch into the vivid

blue skies, about 70 nautical miles west of

the island of Luzon.Later in the massive gray ship’s hangar

bay, Carter said his message in making thetrip is t hat the United States “intends to con-tinue to play a role in keeping peace and sta-bility in this region.”

He said the only reason America’s presencein th e region comes up as an issue is becauseof China’s behavior over the last year— and“that’s a question of Chinese b ehavior.”

“What’s new is not an American carrier inthis region . What’s new is the context o f ten-sion which exists, which we want to reduce,”he said.

Rear Adm. Ronald Boxall, the commanderof Carrier Strike Group 3, told reporters thatthe Stennis and the ships in the carrier’sstrike group “regularly have a (Chinese) shipor two operating with us or near us.”

So far, he said, the Chinese vessels havebeen operating very professionally. “We’ve

been very pleased with the interactions

we’ve had,” he said. “They are operatingwhere they t hink they sh ould, we’re operat-ing where we think we should. They general-ly have professional discussions over thebridge about where we are.”

Under a blazing sun, as the heat index

pushed past 100 degress, Carter landed on the

Stennis in a Marine V-22 Osprey helicopter.He spent about two hours on the shi p, watch-ing a number of fighters shoot into the skyoff the flight deck, do circles around theStennis and then land again, roaring to astop as their tailhook caught the arresting

wire.

HIGH POINT, N.C. — Furniture retailerRon Werner usually spen ds $2 mill ion a y earat North Carolina’s gargantuan, s emiannualfurniture market, but he’s skipping thisweek’s event.

Werner knows not attending the HighPoint Market will mean missing an earlylook at new trends that could get hot later on,translating to big sales for his own business.But he said the state left him little choice

when it passed a law last month that criticssay discriminates against lesbian, gay,

bisexual and transgender people. “The state just came out with thi s nasty and mean-spir-ited law that provides for state-sanctioneddiscrimination,” he said. “How do we jumpon a plane and go to North Carolina? Theyput up a sign that says, ‘Gay? Stay away.’”

Some fear that Werner’s decision mightstart a wave that could damage a traditio n o f commerce that brings an estimated $5 bil-lion a year in economic activity to NorthCarolina. About 75,000 buyers and sellersfrom around the world usually cram into this

traditional furniture city of 100,000 everysix months for a five-day spend-a-thon.

California legislator facesrestraining order amid divorce

LOS ANGELES — A California assembly-man has been ordered to keep a safe distancefrom his estranged wife amid allegations thathe physically abused her during their brief marriage.

A judge is requiring DemocraticAssemblyman Roger Hernandez of WestCovina to stay away from Susan Rubio.

Rubio alleges in a declaration for therestraining order that Hernandez, first electedin 2010, has choked and hit her since theywere married in 2 013.

Hernandez tells the Times there has neverbefore been a suggestion Rubio would need

NEW YORK — U.S. sto cks to oksmall losses in quiet tradingFriday as energy companies sankwith the price of oil, but the mar-ket finished higher for the week.

The price of oil fell 3 percentand made energy companies theworst performing sector of themarket. Utility companies rose asbond yields decreased, and metalsand mining companies rose asgold and silver prices edged high-er.

For the week, the market waspropelled higher by quarterlyfinancial results from big banksthat were less ugly than investorswere bracing for. The market quiet-ed, though, toward the end of theweek.

“We’re in a wait an d see market, ”said Kate Warne, investmentstrategist for Edward Jones.“People are still skeptical aboutearnings growth in the first quar-ter, but there’s no l ong er the graveconcern there was a few weeksago.”

The Dow Jones industrial aver-age fell 28.97 points Friday, or

0.2 percent, to 17,897.46. TheDow rose 1. 8 percent for th e week.The Standard & Poor’s 500 indexlost 2.05 points Friday, or 0.1percent, to 2,080.73 but finishedthe week up 1.6 percent. TheNasdaq composite index dipped

7.67 points, or 0.2 percent, to4,938 .22. For the week it was up1.8 p ercent.

U.S. crude fell $1.14 to $4 0.36a barrel in New York. Brent crude,the international benchmark, lost

74 cents, or 1.7 percent, to$43.10 a barrel in London. Theprices of wholesale gasoline,heating oil and natural gas alsoslumped.

Ministers from major oil-pro-ducing countries will meet this

weekend in Qatar to discuss theirproduction policies. The price of oil has risen in recent weeks inpart on ho pes that th ose countrieswill be able to strike a deal thatwill limit oil production and help

relieve a global glut. But a deal isfar from a sure thing, and oilprices have sli pped in recent days.

“Many of us are skeptical aboutwhether there will be an ag reementand even more skeptical aboutwhether that will stabilize oil

prices where they are now,” Warnesaid, because even if countrieskeep oil production near currentlevels, they’ll still be producingmore than necessary to meetdemand.

Occidental Petroleum lost$2.17, or 2.9 percent, to $72. 15.EOG Resources fell $2.10, or 2.7percent, to $75.71.

Utility companies, the best p er-forming group of stocks on themarket this year, made the largestgains Friday. Investors are being

drawn to their relatively high div-idend payouts because rising bondprices are lowering the yieldsinvestors can earn from bonds.Edison International rose $1.02,or 1.5 percent, to $71.06 andNextEra Energy rose $1. 28, or 1.1percent, to $117. 43.

Bond prices rose and the yieldon the 10-year U.S. Treasury notedeclined to 1.7 5 percent from 1.79percent.

Citigroup said Friday its firstquarter profit shrank 2 7 percent onweak results from its consumerbank and trading businesses, butthe bank ’s net income and revenuewere greater than expected. Thestock fell 6 cents to $44.92, but

WASHINGTON — The globalrecovery has regained most of theground lost from the market turbu-

lence at the beginning of the year,finance officials of the world’slargest economies said Friday. Butthey worry that growth remainsuneven in the face of a variety of threats ranging from terroristbombings to Britain’s upcomingvote on whether to leave theEuropean Union.

The finance ministers from theGroup of 20 major economiespledged to pursue policies that willbolster growth and further stabilizefinancial markets, b ut they offeredno new measures to accomplishthese goals.

Reflecting some of the chal-

lenges the countries face, LouJiwei, China’s finance minister,defended his country’s handling of its economy against criticism thathas seen two major credit ratingagencies recently downgrade theoutlook for Chinese bonds.

The joint statement from the G-20 finance ministers and centralbank governors repeated many of the promises the group had made attheir last meeting in Shanghai inlate February. However, at that t imeglobal financial markets had justgone through a significant bout of turbulence over concerns about aworse-than-expected slowdown inChina, falling oil prices and thethreat they posed to the globaleconomy.

U.S. Treasury Secretary JacobLew said the resolve demonstratedby the finance officials to bolsterglobal growth represented a strong

statement rebutting the voices of anti-globalization. He said cooper-ation was needed because “theUnited States cannot and must notbe the only engine of growth. ...All major economies need todeploy a full tool kit of economicpolicy measures.”

While there are still many chal-lenges, finance officials said theywere encouraged that markets hadstabilized.

Stephen Poloz, h ead of the Bankof Canada, said the mood this weekwas much better than at theFebruary meeting i n China: “I cameaway feeling a little more encour-aged than when I arrived.”

Japanese Finance Minister TaroAso said the world’s financial mar-kets are starting to regain “compo-sure,” although he said “downsiderisk” persists. Aso expressed par-ticular concern about risks from

volatility in capital flows and for-eign exchange rates.

Japanese officials are concernedabout the value of the yen, whichhas risen rapidly this year againstthe dollar despite an unusual moveby the Bank of Japan in February

to introduce negative in terest ratesin a so-far unsuccessful effort tospur Japan’s flaggin g economy.

The G-20 discussions were occur-ring as part of the spring meetingsof the 189-nation InternationalMonetary Fund and the World Bank.Lew and Federal Reserve ChairJanet Yellen were representing theUnited States at the meetings.

In its statement Friday, the g roupacknowledged the volatility at thebeginning of the year but statedthat markets had “recovered mostof the ground lost” although“growth remains modest anduneven.”

OAKLAND — Stephen Curry and theGolden State Warriors had their chance tocelebrate their record-setting regular sea-son before turning their focus to even big-ger goals.

The 73 wins that put the Warriors in therecord books and left the rest of the NBAchasing them all season are meaninglessright now. When the Warriors take the court

Saturday to open their first-round seriesagainst the Houston Rockets, they will be

on even footing with theother 15 playoff teams.

“The regular seasondoesn’t mean anythingat this point, ” Curry saidFriday. “We have twomonths to play our bestbasketball and competeand get it done.”

Having successfullycompleted their chasefor 73 wins to break the

previous mark of 72 set by Chicago 20years ago, the Warriors have targeted a newnumber.

With 16 postseason victories, theWarriors will have a second straight cham-

pionship to go along with their single-sea-son wins record and a case for having themost s uccessful season in NBA hist ory.

Anything short of that will make the reg-ular season record somewhat meaningless,adding another level of pressure for thepostseason run.

“That just goes with the territory,” coachSteve Kerr said. “We’re defending champs.When you’re the favorite, it ’s a littl e differ-ent dynamic. Last year even tho ugh we won67 games and were the one seed, peoplestil l wondered if we could get i t done. It’s adifferent feel, a different dynamic. We stillhave to win 16 games.”

With only three players with varsityexperience, Capuchino baseball managerMatt Wilson knew it might take a while forhis Mustangs to find their footing.

Capuchino got off to a slow start this sea-son and it cont inued into Peninsula Athleti cLeague Bay Division play where theMustangs lost their first four games.

And after splitting a pair of games withSacred Heart Prep last week to pick up theirfirst Bay Division win of the season, the

Mustangs faced the dauntin g task o f playingsecond-place Hillsdale in a h ome-and-homeseries this week.

Don’t look now, but here come theMustangs. After beating the Knights 8-5Wednesday, Capuchino came back homeFriday and beat visiting Hillsdale convinc-ingly, 10-2.

“When the season started, I knew weweren’t going to bang the ball out of theyard. So instead we focused on defense,”Wilson said. “Now it’s time to switch thefocus to the offensive side.”

Missio n accomplish ed so far. The 18 runsscored this week were the most during a two-game stretch this season for the Mustangs.

And Capuchino is doing it by getting thetimely hit and taking advantage of theiropponent’s mistakes. Friday, Hillsdale

committed five errors that led to fiveunearned Capuchino runs.

“[Capuchino is] coming on at the righttime,” said Hillsdale manager JamesMadison. “Those guys (the Mustangs)played lights out this week.”

And Capuchino accomplished Friday’swin without a strong start from Joe Katout,who labored into the fourth inning beforebeing relieved after throwing 94 pitches.

Things didn’t start well for Katout as hewalked the first three batters he faced to l oadthe bases. Luckily for him and theMustangs, Hillsdale failed to make theMustangs pay. The Knights managed topush across just o ne run when Trevor Bettis

Local sports roundup

By Tom WithersTHE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CLEVELAND — LeBron James has been inthe sh adows, s omewhat o verlooked.

For months, the Cavaliers’ megastar hasbeen sli ghtly under the radar, if t hat’s evenpossible for one of the world’s most recog-nizable athletes.

While Stephen Curry rained 3-pointers asthe new face of the NBA, the Golden StateWarriors hunted history and Kobe Bryanttook his final bows, James remained in thebackground — waiting.

Well, it’s time. Playoff time. His time.James appears more than ready.

“I’m in that mode right now,” he said. “I’mwhere I want to be.”

His body feeling as healthy as it has inseveral seasons, James, who finished theregular season with a focused flourish, is

about to take aim at get-ting t he Cavaliers back tothe NBA Finals for ano th-er chance at slaying thethree-sport dragon t hat isCleveland’s 52-year prochampionship drought.

Following a drama-filled 82-game scheduleduring which theyabruptly fired coach

David Blatt despite a 30-11 record, Jamesteased fans about his future and toyed withteammates via social media. Cleveland’s tal-ented roster too often seemed disinterested,but the Cavs are expected to win the EasternConference.

James won’t settle for l ess. He can’t settlefor less.

There’s only suitable outcome for James,seeking his sixth straight Finals and third

title. He has to win it all.And when the Cavs open the playoffs

Sunday against the Detroit Piston s, James isin an unfamili ar role: underdog. He’s not sup-posed to win it this year, which could evenmake him more dangerous.

More than anyon e, he understands hi s win-dow opportunity to win another title is clos-ing. James is on th e down slope of his careerand knows Father Time is the o nly o ne whodoesn’t get posterized at the rim. The 31-year-old James, t oo, sees a j uggernaut grow-ing in Golden State and would like nothingmore than to sl ow it down.

If his pl ay over the p ast few weeks is anyindication, and as long as he gets s ome helpfrom Kyrie Irving, Kevin Love and others,James could add a fourth crown to his resume.

After declaring he had shifted into “playoff mode” earlier than usual, James averaged28.4 points on 63 percent shooting — 52

percent on 3-ponters — with 8.0 assists and8.5 rebounds in his last 10 games. Becausethose numbers are attached to James theylose some meaning as he has established apersonal standard unlike almost any playerin l eague histo ry.

“I hope he can keep it up,” said coachTyronn Lue. “If he plays like this, man,we’re goin g to be to ugh to beat.”

Perhaps most stunning about the way heclosed out is that it came in th e aftermath of a strange chapter in a most unusual season.

On March 19, James and the Cavs weredrubbed by Miami, a t eam capable of re-rout-ing Cleveland’s presumed path t o t he Finals.As his teammates warmed up during halfti methat night, James spent several minuteschatting with former teammate and dearfriend Dwyane Wade.

drove in a run on a groundout to first base.

Katout was in trouble in every inning hepitched. In his 3 2/3 in nings of work, Katoutwalked seven and had seven 3-2 counts.

But each time, save the first, he got out of the inning unscathed. In fact, whenHillsdale’s Rik i Urata legged out an infield hit

with two outs in the fourth, it was the first hitof the game for the Knights.

“He was effectively wild,” Wilson said of Katout. “I’ve known that kid for a long time.I grew up with his uncles. I know how toughhis family is. He’s not going to give up.

“The one thing we need to work on, he gotbehind to nearly every hitter.”

Turns out Katout wasn’t the only one tostruggle on the mound. Hillsdale, because of an injury to its p itching staff, turned to JamesToh — who was making just his fourthappearance of the season, and first sincethrowing one inning against Lowell April 9.It was also his first start of the year.

Toh also had a tough time commanding hispitches and unlike the Hillsdale offense,Capuchino made him pay when Toh, or his

defense, made a mistake.After giving up a run in the top of the first,

Capuchino (3-5 PAL Bay, 8-10 overall) cameback with two in the bottom of the inning,both unearned. Katout led off the game for theMustangs by drawing a walk.

And then the craziness ensued. TreyZahursky came up and put down what was sup-posed to be a sacrifice bunt, but the ball wasthrown away at first base. Katout rounded thirdand ran through his base coach’s stop sign toscore the tying run, with Zahursky moving tothird. He came in to score on a MattO’Mahoney fielder’s choice.

It was only the beginning of a recurring

theme for the Mustangs, who scored runs inevery inning except the sixth. And they didwith help from everyone in the lineup. Eightof the nine Mustang starters had a hit as theyfinished with 11 as a team, and all ninestarters reached base. Add in walks, errors andfielder’s choices and the Mustangs had 19base runners for the game.

“That’s what we’ve been focusing on: situa-tional hitt ing,” Wilson said. “Not to do morethan what you’re asked to and they’veresponded to that.”

O’Mahony reached base in four of his plateappearances, rapping out a pair of singles.Ramon Enriquez also had a pair of hit s, whileJakob Uriarte had a double — the on ly ext ra-base hit of the game.

In the second inning, it was Katout andZahursky each driving in a run with singles asCapuchino increased its lead to 4 -1. A DylanArsenault single drove in the Mustangs’ fifthrun in the third and after Hillsdale scratchedout a run in the top of the fourth, theMustangs came back with three in the bottomof the frame with Erniquez and Uriarte bothscoring when Hillsdale failed to get out of theinning by not retiring O’Mahony, whoreached on an error. O’Mahony later scored onHillsdale’s fifth error of the game. Capuchinorounded out the scoring in the fifth withEnriquez coming through with a two-run s in-gle to score Aiden Yarwood and RJ Nobe.

Hillsdale, meanwhile, managed only onemore hit for th e game, a clean Arjun Mahantysingle to center off of Capuchino relieverDamian Hernandez, who pitched the final 31/3 innings.

“It’s n ice (to g et some big wins). We’re sucha young team and we weren’t putting thingstogether and were blowing opportunities,”Wilson said. “The last couple of games, we’vebeen putting t hings t ogether.”

hitter with 13 strikeouts that nig ht.

Howie Kendrick, a career second basemanwho started in left field and third base in theprevious two games, was back at his no rmalposition and committed an error that led toan unearned run in the Giants third.

Bumgarner, who ho mered against Kershawfor the second time in their previousmatchup, led off the third with a single andscored on a bases-lo aded wild pitch to BusterPosey. But Hernandez minimized the damagewith a divin g catch of Posey’s sinkin g liner.

Hernandez added a bases-loaded, two-rundouble that capped a four-run fourth andincreased Los Angeles’ lead to 6-1, afterCharlie Culberson’s two-run single.Culberson singled home another run in thesixth to make it 7-3.

Last weekend, the three-time defendingNL West champion Dodgers lost three of four at San Francisco after outscoring thePadres 25-0 in a season -openin g three-gamesweep at San Diego.

Kershaw, a three-time Cy Young Award

winner, combined with two relievers to endSan Francisco’s franchise-record streak of 10 consecutive games from the start of aseason with a home run. The Giants con-nected eight times in the previous serieswith th e Dodgers.

Trainer’s room

Giants: Placed RHP Sergio Romo andINF Ehire Adrianza on the 15-day disabledlist and replaced them on the 25-man roster

with outfielder Mac Williamson and right-hander Derek Law. Adrianza is expected tomiss six to eight weeks because of a brokenleft foot. Romo has a strained flexor tendonin his right elbow, and is on the DL for thethird time in his career — all because of elbow injuries.

Athletics: INF Eric Sogard returned toOakland from his rehab assignment inStockton to get an MRI on his left knee,which has bothered him off and on sincespring training. “He felt some discomfort,”A’s manager Bob Melvin said. “It’s popped up

enough that it’s worrisome.” Sogard went on

Wide receiver Percy Harvinretiring after 7 NFL seasons

Percy Harvin’s tumultuous careerhas come to an abrupt end.

The 27-year-old wide receiver isretiring after seven NFL seasons,Harvin’s agent, Joel Segal, con-firmed to the Associated Press onFriday.

Harvin played five games for theBuffalo Bills last season beforebeing placed on injured reserve

with lingeringhip and kneeinjuries.

H a r v i n ’ sretirement deci-sion was firstreported by ProFootball Talk .

The Bills wereHarvin’s thirdteam in two

years after he was traded by theSeattle Seahawks to the New YorkJets during the 201 4 season.

The Minnesota Vikings draftedHarvin in the first round in 2009

after he helped Florida win twonational titles in three seasons. Hewas the AP offensive rookie of theyear in 2009, finishing his firstseason with 60 receptions andeight touchdowns, two on kickreturns.

Harvin was traded to Seattle in2013 and immediately signed a six-year, $67 million contract exten-sion. Prior to the 2013 season,Harvin had surgery to repair a tornlabrum in his hip, an injury thatwould linger for the rest of hiscareer.

Harvin helped the Seahawks winthe Super Bowl in 2014 when hereturned the opening kickoff of thesecond half for a touchdown. But he

only played in five regular-seasongames and had run-ins with team-mates before being traded to theJets the following season.

Buffalo signed Harvin to a three-year contract last spring, butinjuries voided the final two yearsof the contract, making him a freeagent.
