2015 session was about modest changes, not big

BY EMILY WAGSTER PETTUSThe Associated Press

JACKSON — This is a year of modest accom-plishments for the Missis-sippi Legislature.

During their three-month session that just ended, lawmakers out-lawed texting while driv-ing; authorized people to carry guns in purses or briefcases without a concealed-carry li-cense; and eliminated the $5 vehicle in-

spection sticker that, for many drivers, had become more of an annual annoy-ance than a genuine way to keep clunk-ers off the road.

Facing pressure from conservatives who distrust the Common Core academ-ic standards that Mississippi and most other states adopted in recent years, legislators voted to create a 15-member commission to examine what schools should teach. The group will make rec-ommendations to the state Board of Ed-ucation, but the board won’t be obligated

Jackson, who has owned Jackson Square for 18 years, said he hopes the sculptures, which stand at the shopping center, catch people’s eyes. “Anything to bring people into the shopping center,” he said.

The 75th Pilgrimage beginstodayFirst tours of Columbus homes at 2 p.m. todayDISPATCH STAFF REPORT

Rain or shine — most likely rain, according to the forecast — the Co-lumbus Spring Pilgrimage will kick off its 75th year today with its first tour of homes and a kickoff party featuring crawfish at a shrimp boil.

With rain likely throughout the day, the Pilgrimage Kickoff Party has been relocated from the lawn of the Tennessee Williams home to the Trotter Convention Center. The event will run from 5 to 8 p.m.

Pilgrimage tours begin today with the Orange Tour from 2 to 5 p.m., featuring visits to Rosewood Manor and Gardens, Whitehall and the Amzi Love Home. Four other tours will commence later this week, including the Green Tour (Rosedale, Stephen D. Lee Home and Museum, White Arches), Blue Tour (Bryn Bella, Ole Magnolia and Waverley Mansion Home and Gardens), Yel-low Tour (Baskerville Mannor, Col-onnade Garden, Snowdoun), Red Tour (Errolton, Temple Heights and Gardens, Shadowlawn) and a pair of one-day tours on April 12 (Ole Homestead, The Cedars) and April 16 (Twelve Gables and The Haven).

Other events on the 16-day schedule include a Garden Party at Colonnade Gardens, the Pilgrimage half-marathon and 5K run, Catfish in the Alley, Artisans Alley and May-or’s Unity Picnic, all scheduled for Saturday.

The first “Tales from the Crypt” performance by students from Mis-sissippi School for Mathematics and Science will be held Wednesday. Horse-drawn carriage rides will be

Jackson Square gets a little artistic

BY SLIM [email protected]

It’s been 18 years since Lex Jackson purchased Jackson Square Shopping Center on Highway 45 in Columbus.

Through the years, Jackson and his wife, Judith, have brought changes to

the property to enhance its appeal – both through new tenants to other, less commercial, flourishes de-signed to catch the eyes of those who travel down the Highway 45 North corri-dor, the city’s most devel-oped retail area.

New arrivals such as Lost Pizza and Buffalo Wild Wings have created more traffic for the shopping center. But the latest addition is three wind sculptures, which the Jacksons

erected in a small patch of grass in front of Sweet Pepper’s Deli.

The moving wind sculptures feature steel cups and blades which turn and capture light in even a light breeze.

“We put them up about a week ago,” Jackson said. “Since then, we’ve had a lot of people stop by, wanting to know where I got them. I’ve never seen them anywhere around here.”

The Jacksons purchased the sculp-tures from friends who own Handcrafted Interiors, an art gallery located in Pagosa

‘Furious 7’ races into box office with $143.6 millionBY LINDSEY BAHRAP Film Writer

LOS ANGELES — The high-octane “Furious 7” peeled out of the gates in its opening weekend, pick-ing up a stunning $143.6 million from 4,004 loca-tions to easily top the do-mestic box office, accord-ing to Rentrak estimates Sunday.

The expectation-shat-tering sum is a studio and franchise best for the homegrown car-obsessed series, which has contin-ued to grow over the past few films.

“Furious 7,” now the ninth-biggest opening of all time, also unseats previous April record-holder “Cap-

tain America: The Winter Soldier,” which opened to $95 million on the same weekend last year.

While the “Fast and Fu-rious” films have grown in popularity over the past three films, the me-ga-opening for “Furious 7” was also at least partially tied to audience interest in star Paul Walker, who died in a car crash in Nov. 2013 before the film was com-pleted.

Production on “Furious 7” was halted while the filmmakers and Universal decided whether or not to proceed with the film. The team ultimately decided to delay the release from its originally scheduled July 2014 date.

BY DENISE LAVOIEAP Legal Affairs Writer

BOSTON — With one last chance to connect with the jury, lawyers for Boston Marathon bomb-er Dzhokhar Tsarnaev are expected to continue to portray him as an aim-less college student who fell under the domineer-ing influence of his radi-calized older brother.

But prosecutors are sure to remind the jury of the brutality of the attack, the people who were maimed or killed, and the image of Tsar-naev standing behind 8-year-old Martin Richard and his family about a minute before the blasts. The boy was one of three people killed when Tsar-naev and his brother, Ta-merlan, placed two pres-sure-cooker bombs near the marathon finish line on April 15, 2013.

Closing arguments in the guilt phase of the trial are scheduled for Mon-day.

Tsarnaev’s lawyer ad-mitted he participated in the bombings during her opening statement to the jury. “It was him,” said attorney Judy Clarke, a renowned death penalty lawyer.

But Clarke told the jury that it was Tamerlan Tsarnaev who was the mastermind of the attack.

Clarke said the 26-year-old had become increas-ingly radicalized and en-listed Dzhokhar, then 19, to help him in an attack meant to retaliate against the U.S. for its actions in Muslim countries.

Legal analysts said they expect the defense to stick with a strategy of conceding guilt, but try-ing to persuade the jury that because Tsarnaev was not the driving force behind the attack, they should spare him from the death penalty and in-stead sentence him to life in prison during the sec-ond phase of the trial. The same jury will be asked to decide his punishment.

During the trial, the defense used its four

witnesses to show that Tamerlan Tsarnaev had searched for bomb com-ponents on his computer, while Dzhokhar’s com-puter activity focused largely on Facebook, a Russian version of Face-book and other social me-dia sites. The defense also called an FBI fingerprint investigator who said Tamerlan’s fingerprints were found on some of the bomb parts recov-ered at the scene of the marathon bombing while Dzhokhar’s were not.

“They will continue to downplay his role and play up the role of his old-er brother, trying to cre-ate the impression that his older brother was the puppeteer and he was the

puppet,” said Christopher Dearborn, a professor at Suffolk University Law School.

“I don’t think they have any hope of prevail-ing in the guilt phase, but their strategy will con-tinue to be to gain some credibility with the jury by conceding what they had to concede and hop-ing to try to humanize the kid a little bit so that will carry over into the sec-ond phase of the trial,” he said.

Prosecutors told the jury that Tsarnaev and his brother were partners in the attack. They called witnesses who described how he joined his broth-er at a New Hampshire firing range to practice shooting about a month before the marathon, had fireworks that had been emptied of their explosive powder in his dorm room and scrawled a message inside the boat he was captured in denouncing the U.S. for its wars in Muslim countries.

They also called survi-vors of the bombing who gave heart-wrenching testimony about having legs blown off in the ex-plosions.

“I think the prosecu-tion will remind the jury how horrendous this event was and they will further remind the jury that this fellow was a ter-rorist,” said Boston Col-lege Law School profes-sor Robert Bloom.

to accept the suggestions.Mississippi has a long-

standing problem of low graduation rates for spe-cial education students, and legislators created $6,500 vouchers that some families of special education students can use for private school tu-ition, tutoring or other ed-ucational services outside the public schools. The state has about 66,500 special education stu-dents, and the voucher program is limited to 500 students the first year. Over five years, it will expand to 2,500. Support-ers argued that a small program is better than nothing, while opponents said the state would bet-ter serve special educa-tion students by hiring lawyers to advocate on their behalf as they seek services they need from public schools.

Legislators funded the second year of a teacher

pay raise, as expected.House and Senate lead-

ers boast that they bud-geted a record amount of money for education. But, Nancy Loome, lead-er of a public education advocacy group called the Parents’ Campaign, says legislators still fell more than $201 million short of fully funding the Missis-sippi Adequate Education Program, a formula that was put into law in 1997 and is designed to give schools enough money to meet midlevel academic standards.

This is an election year, with eight statewide offic-es and all 174 legislative seats on the ballot. Most incumbents are seek-ing re-election, and the state’s top three Republi-cans — Gov. Phil Bryant, Lt. Gov. Tate Reeves and House Speaker Philip Gunn — were eager for the Legislature to enact some sort of tax cut. That

didn’t happen.The Senate passed a

plan that would have re-duced a portion of the in-come tax and phased out the business franchise tax. Price tag: $382 mil-lion.

The House passed a plan that would have phased out the personal income tax over at least 15 years, with bits dis-appearing in years when the economy is growing. It would have been the biggest tax cut in state history, with a price tag of about $1.7 billion a year, based on current income tax collections.

The two chambers reached a $555 mil-lion compromise that would’ve reduced individ-ual and corporate income tax rates, phased out the franchise tax and re-duced the rate of self-em-ployment taxes.

Tax proposals need a 60 percent majority to

pass. The compromise passed the Senate but died in the House amid solid opposition from Democrats who said re-ducing revenue could cre-ate funding problems for schools, transportation and other state services.

“It’s the biggest dis-appointment of the 2015 session,” Reeves said. “We spent a lot of time and effort and political capital to convince mem-bers of the importance of sending money back home to our taxpayers.”

During a separate end-of-session interview, Gunn didn’t blame Dem-ocrats for killing a tax cut, as Republican lead-ers had been doing until then. Instead, he faulted

the other chamber for not accepting the House pro-posal.

“I thought it was a

good plan,” Gunn said. “And, unfortunately, it didn’t survive in the Sen-ate.”

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PORT GIBSON — Two weekend gatherings at the Claiborne County Courthouse called for action in the death of Otis Byrd, a man reported missing early in March and found March 19, hanging from a tree.

The investigation is taking too long, organizers of both groups told the Vicksburg Post , saying they won’t believe it if authorities report that Byrd killed himself.

“We want justice, and we want justice now,” said Claiborne County NAACP president Evan Doss, who led a Saturday morning march and rally. “We’re not going to accept sui-cide. That’s just not there.”

Byrd, 54, was found hanging by a bed sheet from a branch of a tree behind his rented house.

If agents in Port Gibson cannot say by now whether he was killed or killed himself, more agents are

needed, said Doss.The team of federal, state and lo-

cal investigators is waiting for FBI Laboratory test results, said Don Al-way, FBI special agent in charge for Mississippi.

“We’ll combine those results with many other facts we’ve gathered, to give the results context. These facts will give investigators the most ac-curate information to determine what happened,” he said in a state-ment emailed to The Associated Press.

Claiborne County Supervisor Ed-win Smith told the first gathering, “I’d like to apologize on behalf of the county. These people deserve action. We’ve been disrespected. If they can look at a satellite and get your tag number, we can surely get some closure on this.”

Stephanie Atlas said her husband worked with Byrd, and she doesn’t

believe he committed suicide.

“He wasn’t that type of person, so I wanted to come and support the family,” she said. “He didn’t take his own life.”

The national chair of the New Black Panther Party, Krystal Muhammad, led a Saturday afternoon community meeting on the courthouse steps.

“We know that Otis Byrd was lynched,” she said. “We’re not going to let it just be a cover-up. We went and looked at the scene ourselves. It ’s impossible that he lynched him-self, and we’re not going to let Mis-sissippi get away with their old Mis-sissippi ways.”

Claiborne County Sheriff Marvin Lucas said people need patience.

“All I ask is that people let the au-thorities do their job and don’t feed into that foolishness, that hearsay,” he said.

JACKSON — The U.S. Supreme Court will decide April 17 whether to hear an ap-peal from a Mississippi death row inmate.

Court officials say a decision could be an-nounced shortly after the court conference.

At 68, Richard Gerald Jordan is the old-est inmate on Mississippi’s death row. He is also Mississippi’s the longest serving death row inmate, with 38 years.

Jordan was convicted of kidnapping and killing Edwina Marter in Harrison County on Jan. 13, 1976. He was accused of collect-ing a $25,000 ransom from Marter’s hus-band, then taking the woman to a wooded area in north Harrison County and shooting her in the back of the head.

Last year, the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals rejected Jordan’s arguments of prosecutorial vindictiveness and ineffective assistance of counsel.

BY PHILIP ELLIOTTThe Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Change? For sure. Hope? Maybe not so much.

That’s Rand Paul’s approach to winning the White House when the original hope-and-change candidate, Barack Obama, vacates it in early 2017.

Ready to enter the chase for the Republican presidential nomination this week, the first-term Kentucky senator has de-signs on changing how members of his party go about getting elected to the White House and how they govern once they get there.

He will do so with an approach to politics that is often downbeat and usual-ly dour, which just might work in a nation deeply frustrated with Washing-ton.

Since his election to Congress, and in the lead-up to his entry into the presidential race, Paul has favored blunt takes on America’s woes instead of the sunny earnestness

that helped fuel Obama’s rise to popularity in 2007 and 2008.

Consider Paul’s re-sponse this year to Obama’s State of the Union address, a speech filled by presidents of all parties with bullish pre-dictions for the nation’s future. Paul’s message that night was downright sullen.

“I wish I had better news for you, but all is not well in America,” Paul said. Much of the country, he said, “still suffers.”

Paul is set to declare his candidacy during a speech in his home state of Kentucky on Tuesday. Expect Paul to outline a vision for America that doesn’t fit any of the tradi-tional Republican molds.

He would alter the scale and mandate of the federal government in more radical ways than other members of the GOP. And he bucks par-ty ideology in standing against government sur-veillance, for deep cuts in military spending and in questioning the wisdom of harsh sentences for drug

o f f e n d e r s who cost government billions to imprison.

T h o s e l ibertarian i m p u l s e s r e s o n a t e with people on the left as well as the right, though they can be hard for many mainstream Republicans to swallow. Sen. John McCain, the Arizona Republican who was his party’s 2008 pres-idential nominee, called Paul and others “wacko birds” of the Senate when they unsuccessfully tried to block the nomination of John Brennan as CIA chief in a dispute over the use of drones.

“He can appeal to a broader spectrum of vot-ers,” said Eliott West, a student at Michigan’s Spring Arbor University who led a pro-Paul dele-gation to a recent conser-vative conference near Washington. “He is about more freedom, less gov-ernment. And if Repub-licans are going to win, that’s what we need.”

All-American pastimes Take me out

to the ballgame; take me out to the crowd. Buy me some peanuts and Cracker Jack; I don’t care if I never get back….

— Jack Norworth, 1908

Spring is un-predictably crazy. Nine days ago it was sleeting at the Mississippi State baseball game. There’s something very wrong when a March day leaves ice pellets on your baseball cap.

I succumbed to picking up a few annuals but wouldn’t plant before Good Friday. The snap-dragons, petunias, impatiens

as well as the herbs, basil and cilan-tro were set in a wooden tray on the porch. As soon as freezing tempera-tures were predict-ed again I brought them inside and set the plants near the south windows. Looking at the beauties assured me spring would come.

The day was gray and chilly. After enjoying a few fair weather days of 70 degrees it seemed cruel to have tempera-tures plummet to 44 degrees again. In the mid-afternoon Sam and I took a drive. The daffodils had all but gone,

the red buds finally showed themselves. Beautiful trees bloomed with ruby red flowers at the entrance of Plymouth Bluff. Every year I see those trees and remind myself I should get some. We continued our drive on to the spillway at the Columbus Lock and Dam. Sam likes to see if anyone is fishing and catching.

There were two cars that cold day. One car was a family with four young children. The little boy, less than 3 years, had a plastic fishing pole. He was fishing in a field of green grass when he began to cry. The poor little fellow had himself hung up. I know how frustrating that can be. Soon an older sister and a tad bit bigger brother came to his res-

cue. Over the rise I could see presumably a father fishing on the bank. I wondered if back home there was a wife who said, “Sure honey, you can go fishing. Just take the kids.”

The other car belonged to a lone fisherman up by the gates where the swift water rushes. He had a large white bucket that sometimes holds his catch and sometimes provides a sit-ting place. Sam was convinced he wasn’t missing any fishing that day so we drove on.

Down through Tibbee Sam hunted for what he remem-bered as “Round Head Ball-park.” After a few twists and turns we found the park’s re-mains. Standing though aged were the scoreboard, a press box, some broken light poles,

and bleachers that were miss-ing more than a few boards.

We sat in the car wondering what had happened to the ball-park. There’s something about a baseball park even when it’s dilapidated that causes the imagination to run wild. We heard the cheers of the crowd and smelled the hotdogs, the fans hollered long and slow “Ball four,” and the umpire cried, “Strike three, you’re out.”

We longed for the 7th in-ning stretch but there was only a bit of sadness and the chill in the air.

Would like to have seen more Easter coverageI’m so sorry your newspaper did not get the memo

in time print something in your paper about this be-ing Easter Sunday, the most important celebration in all Christendom. Most businesses and individuals in Christian communities around the world celebrated the “Good News” anyway. Being that the moral and legal foundation of our great Untied States is founded on Christian principles, and we have existed as a free country through God’s grace, I would have bet that you’d find some way to mention it in your paper, but what do I know about publishing a newspaper whose majority of readers probably profess to be believ-ers. I’m grateful that Hobby Lobby and others were willing to pay (handsomely, I’d guess) to proclaim the great I AM in your Easter Edition.

I would guess that if every Christian subscriber to your paper were to cancel his or her subscription because you didn’t get the memo, your circulation would decrease by two-thirds overnight. To be sure this oversight doesn’t happen again, I’ll remind you a few days ahead of time next year when Easter is to be celebrated with something other than Easter Egg Hunt.

TRENDS

“Yours is going to be the next wedding we all get together for!”

This is something a relative said to me at my 21-year-old cousin’s wedding a few years ago. I had just turned 15.

I imagine I clutched my glass of not-champagne a little more tightly at these words. True, there were six years and no other cousins between the bride and me, so the relative may not have been technically wrong, but her comment implied that matrimony await-ed me sooner rather than later.

That was South Carolina in 2006. According to the American Communi-ty Survey from that year, the median age of women at their first marriage was 26.3, so my cousin was a young bride for the time and place.

According to 2013 estimates released recently, the median age of first brides in Mississip-pi is 26.1. I’d like to print this number on a large billboard for me to point to whenever friends or relatives ask when I’m going to settle down — as though at 23 and a half, my biological clock is ticking with increasing urgency.

I assumed before moving here Mississippi, like many conser-vative and relatively religious

states, would have couples getting mar-ried at a much young-er age than the rest of the country. In reality, the median age of first brides in the nation is 26.9, not even a year older than Mississip-pi’s median age.

Meanwhile, the median age of Missis-sippi grooms is 27.8, while the national median age is 28.9. Yes, the Mississippi numbers are lower, but when you compare them to my cousin’s age, the average Mississippi couple is just about on par with the rest of the nation in terms of when they get married.

These numbers have also increased in the last half century. A chart published by the U.S. Census Bureau in 2012 shows how the ages of married couples has increased since 1890. In the

decade before the 20th century, women were married around age 23 and men around age 26. Those numbers decreased slightly at the beginning of the twentieth century and then fell dramatically during World War II. By 1950, the median age for a first-time bride was 20 and a first-time groom 24. The num-bers have been increasing ever since.

The National Campaign to Prevent Teen and Unplanned Pregnancy and the National

Marriage Project at the Univer-sity of Virginia teamed up on the project “Knot Yet,” which studied the benefits and costs of delayed marriage among millennials. The study finds that benefits are particularly good for college-ed-ucated women, who tend to enjoy an annual income premium of about $18,000 if they don’t get married until their 30s. The cost is that more children are born outside wedlock, particularly to women with little or no college education. The other costs are that 20-something singles — both men and women — tend to be less satisfied and happy.

Those are all generalizations though. It’s up to individuals whether waiting to get married is right for them. And marriage has never been the one thing I always thought would make me happy. While my girlfriends always flipped through wedding catalogs and looked at flowers and gowns online, I flipped through travel magazines and compared prices for plane tickets to Europe on Expedia.com.

That hasn’t stopped people from wondering when or if I’m ever going to get around to getting married. My lifelong best friend, who is nearly a year younger than me, is getting mar-ried in August and plans to use the reception to set me up with a lawyer on the guest list.

I imagine such attempts will become more frantic as I ap-proach the national median age of first-time brides.

Commentary on Sunday editionI’m just an old fuddy-duddy, and I’m in my second

childhood, but I do wish the comics pages would re-main entertaining. If a political statement is desired, there is the op-ed page. Some comics were funny, while making a statement about politics, religion, morals, or whatever, but they were funny.

Women in spec ops? Are you crazy? Women can handle many combat MOS roles, but as Inspector Callahan (Dirty Harry) put it, “A man’s (woman’s, general’s, etc.) gotta know (the) limits.

Again, Patrick Buchanan has hit another home run. Picking applicants to be allowed to attend cer-tain, or even any in my opinion, schools based on any criteria other than intelligence does nobody any good.

No one particular group of people is inherently or genetically smarter that others. There are several factors involved. When people of low IQ have chil-dren, those children tend to have their parents’ traits, including IQ. When highly intelligent people have children, those children tend to be smarter as well.

When children actually study and try to learn, they improve their IQ. Being poor is not a barrier to being intelligent, and being rich does not guarantee a high IQ either.

If we allow race or ethnicity to be a determining factor of who does or does not be admitted to schools, we’re going about things bass-ackward. We cannot create intelligence by passing a law or being political-ly correct.

Tax refunds for many take hit or get bump from health lawBY RICARDO ALONSO-ZALDIVAR,The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — As the April 15 tax deadline nears, people who got help paying for health in-surance under President Barack Obama’s law are seeing the direct effect on their refunds — hundreds of dollars, for better or worse.

The law offers tax credits so people without access to job-based health insurance can buy private coverage. Because these subsidies are tied to in-come, consumers must accurately estimate what they will make for the coming year.

That’s been a challenge for millions of people.

Guess on the low side, get more help now with premiums, but owe mon-ey later at filing time. Overestimate income, ex-pect bucks back from the taxman.

Many consumers may not have understood that is how it works when they signed up. Some experts caution that such compli-cations could discourage uninsured people from getting covered.

Rob Tuck of Dublin, California, said he had an-ticipated a refund of about $400 on his 2014 taxes. But that almost has been wiped out because he had to repay some of the subsidy. He changed jobs during the year, and his income went up a little.

Tuck, who works for a San Francisco area tech-support company, said he enrolled to avoid tax penalties for being un-insured, but feels penal-ized anyway now.

“I was expecting to get dinged a little bit, but I was actually kind of sur-prised when it came down that much,” he said.

Kelsey Park started out 2014 in Dallas, earn-ing good commissions by selling wedding gowns. She left for graduate school at the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa, and signed up for cover-age through the law. She ended up overestimating her income because she didn’t get another job as anticipated.

Park’s tax refund came to $2,500, partly because she had too much income tax withheld and partly because she received a smaller health care sub-sidy than she was entitled to.

“It was hard to esti-mate what I would be earning because I was transitioning in life,” said Park, who’s studying for a master’s degree in mar-keting. “I tend to overesti-mate because I don’t want to have to pay back,” she said.

The average refund is large enough to offset any repayment in most cases, according to the Treasury Department. The White House says the Affordable Care Act is working even better than anticipated.

But this is the first year that the complicated con-nections between the law and the tax system are playing out for consumers.

Initial reports suggest a fairly even split between tax-return winners and losers.

Earlier in the filing sea-son, tax preparation com-pany H&R Block reported that 52 percent of its cus-tomers who got health insurance subsidies owed money back. Repayments averaged $530, reducing expected refunds by 17 percent.

On the other hand, roughly one-third of cus-tomers with subsidies overestimated their in-

comes. As a result, their refunds went up by $365 on average.

In a recent study, the nonpartisan Kaiser Fam-ily Foundation estimated that half those eligible for a subsidy would owe mon-

ey, while 45 percent would receive a bigger refund.

The estimated average repayment was $794, and the refund was $773. The estimates were based on an analysis of census data about income changes

among people likely eligi-ble for health care subsi-dies.

Kaiser calculated that overall between 4.5 mil-lion and 7.5 million house-holds have to account to the IRS for their subsidies.

SculptureContinued from Page 1A

Springs, Colorado.“We bought one of

them for our home about five or six years ago,” Jackson said. “We liked it so much and it was so dif-ferent that when we went out to see our friends in Colorado, we thought we would buy another to put up at the shopping cen-ter. We wound up buying three of them, we liked them so much.”

The addition of the sculptures might be con-sidered a finishing touch on the Jacksons’ efforts to improve the shopping center.

“Over the years, we’ve gone through a lot of re-modeling, so I thought it was time to bring in some-thing for artistic reasons,” Jackson said. “We’re pret-ty well set with tenants, so this is really just some-thing to catch people’s eyes, anything to bring people into the shopping center.”

More specifically, Jack-son hopes the sculptures will create more traffic for Reed’s Department Store,

which he owns and oper-ates.

“I always tell people that if you’re going to open a store in a shopping center, you should find

one where the property owner also has a store,” Jackson said. “That way, you know he has a stake in keeping the shopping center in good shape.”

From Special Reports

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Mackenzie Toler’s single in the sixth inning scored Car-oline Seitz with the go-ahead run Sunday to lift the Missis-sippi State softball team to a come-from-behind 3-2 victory against Arkansas in a South-eastern Conference game at Bogle Park.

MSU (28-10, 7-7 SEC)

earned its 14th come-from-be-hind win to take the series from Arkansas (14-23, 0-11). The teams will wrap up the series at 6 tonight (SEC Network).

Trailing 2-1 in the sixth, Amanda Ivy drew a one-out walk and scored on a double to left-center field by Seitz. Toler followed with a single through the right side to give the Bull-dogs their first lead.

Alexis Silkwood threw the

final two innings to record the save for Cassady Knudsen (1-0), who threw three shut-out innings. Knudsen allowed three hits and struck out two. Silkwood recorded her second save by striking out four.

“Another great team win today,” said MSU coach Van Stuedeman, whose team has 49 come-from-behind wins in her tenure in Starkville.

SAN DIEGO — The San Diego Padres couldn’t start the season without yet another block-buster deal by first-year general manager A.J. Preller.

Preller pushed ahead with his remarkable makeover of

the Padres on Sunday when he acquired All-Star closer Craig Kimbrel and outfielder Melvin Upton from the Atlanta Braves for outfielders Carlos Quentin and Cameron Maybin, plus two minor leaguers and a draft pick.

While Upton will be reunited with his younger brother, Padres

left fielder Justin Upton, this deal centered around Kimbrel, whom Preller called “an A-level per-former.”

INDIANAPOLIS — The Duke men’s basket-ball team languished in the shadows of Kentucky all season, the big blue juggernaut that nobody seemed to be talking about. It was a rarity for a program with such a championship pedi-gree, not to mention a record-setting coach and superstar freshmen.

Duke can thank Wis-consin for finally return-ing to the limelight.

The fun-loving Badgers ended the Wildcats’ pur-suit of perfection in the national semifinals, and set up an intriguing show-down in tonight’s title game: Duke trying to give Mike Krzyzewski his fifth national championship, Wisconsin trying to cap-ture its first in 74 years.

“I don’t think basketball fans I know would ever say Duke didn’t have a good team,” said Wisconsin coach Bo Ryan, who won four Division III titles at Wisconsin-Platteville. “A lot of people thought they had a pretty good team because they spanked our team at our place in De-cember. I can’t say they were ignored.”

Yet the buzz at the Fi-nal Four this week was focused on Kentucky. The only folks giving the Bad-gers much of a chance were wearing red and white and scarfing down cheese.

Along with the coach in the other locker room.

“Coming into the year, I thought they’d be the best team in the country, and they have been,” Krzyze-wski said. “It’s just that Kentucky’s undefeated performance has over-shadowed just how good Wisconsin has been, until (Saturday) night. There aren’t any shadows any-more.”

Trey Bright was running on a quarter tank of sleep Saturday when he arrived at Magnolia Mo-tor Speedway.

Bright, who won the Street Stocks feature at Columbus Mo-tor Speedway on March 27, blew a motor for the second time in a month while turning laps Friday at Magnolia. After borrowing an engine and spending most of Sat-urday morning preparing his No. 82 car for that night’s $2,000-to-win feature race, Bright turned down for a couple of hours before returning to the track.

Bright eventually left Magno-lia with money to put toward an-other motor, winning the $2,000 Golden Egg Classic Street Stocks feature. Bright was fortunate enough, too, to race in the $1,000 feature race originally slated for Friday. That race, in which he finished third, was bumped to Saturday’s slate.

“It came through and worked out for us,” Bright said of the bor-rowed motor.

Bright started third, trading places for second with Richie Stephens as Brooks Strength, who won the $1,000 feature ear-lier in the night, built an eight-car length lead on the field.

But after Blaine Davis spun out and the yellow was thrown on lap 17, Bright, who was third on the restart, began his charge to the front. He passed Stephens on lap 21, and changed his strategy to mow down Strength. Bright avoided the deep ruts on the low side of the track, particularly in turn four, to pass Stephens and Strength on the outside. After a strong run off the higher line in turn four, Bright passed Strength on the home stretch on lap 25 of the 30-lap race.

“When Rocket Man (Ste-phens) got by me, I knew there was no way to pass him on the bottom,” Bright said. “I passed him the same way he’d passed him. I got to thinking about it, ‘I

got to ride in there one car above him.’ I rode it in there and it stuck, so I just started to cut a groove in the track, and it paid off.

“The guys I was racing with, Rocket Man and Brooks, they can handle their cars pretty good and usually won’t run into you intentionally. They’ll race you clean, so even though it was tough holding them off, I didn’t have to worry about them wreck-ing me.”

Strength and Stephens fin-ished second and third, respec-tively.

Bright said the ruts in track were “extreme” and tough to nav-igate.

“You really didn’t know what the car was gonna do when you

ran across it at times,” Bright said. “You just had to hope for the best.”

Ashley Newman sweeps NeSmith races

Justin McCree was the only driver to break 14 seconds in Ne-Smith Late Model qualifying for Saturday’s feature race, earning the pole for the $1,000 race.

And for the first 19 laps of the 25-lap feature, all signs point-ed toward McCree winning the race. He’d built up a seven car-length lead by the fourth lap and began navigating lap traffic by lap seven.

But Ashley Newman, who started fifth and moved to second on Lap 6, started to close the gap with McCree, eventually reach-ing McCree’s bumper by lap 18.

With just five laps to go, Mc-Cree and Newman entered turn three side by side, with Newman holding the inside groove. The two tangled off turn four before McCree spun out and collided with another car. Newman went on to win the race, while McCree didn’t finish.

Newman pocketed $1,800 for winning both Late Model races.

OXFORD — Former New Hope High School standout Will Golsan con-tinued his hot hitting with a single and an RBI Sunday, but the Ole Miss baseball team lost to Tennessee 4-2 in the series finale at Swayze Field.

Golsan and Sikes Orvis had RBIs, but the Rebels (16-16, 5-7 Southeastern Conference) had only four hits and couldn’t secure their second SEC series victory of the season.

Starting pitcher Drake Owenby (2-3) went eight innings and allowed two runs on four hits to help Tennessee (14-14, 4-8) earn the series victory. The Vol-unteers had only six hits. Infielders Nick Senzel and Jared Pruett had two hits

apiece.Freshman right-hander

Will Stokes (0-3) went a ca-reer-long 5 2/3 innings and allowed four runs — two earned — on four hits. He walked two and struck out four. Senior Scott Weath-ersby threw two scoreless innings of relief, and soph-omore Wyatt Short retired all four batters he faced.

After giving up three runs through the first two innings, Stokes retired 12 of the final 14 batters he faced, including 10 in a row at one point, before leaving the game with two outs in the sixth.

“It was nice to get an ex-tended outing from him,” Ole Miss coach Mike Bian-co said. “He’s terrific. We need to help him a little bit. We need to give him some

run support and catch some balls for him.”

Tennessee scored a run in the first and two in the second to take a 3-0 lead. A nice defensive play by soph-omore third baseman Col-by Bortles, who stepped on third and threw across the diamond to complete the 5-3 double play, limited the second-inning damage to two runs.

Ole Miss got a run back in the third, coming through again with two outs. Second baseman Golsan struck a ground ball to the left side that got through for a single that scored freshman left field-er Kyle Watson from sec-ond.

Golsan, a freshman, is leading the team with a .313 batting average. He is

second on the team with 18 RBIs and third on the squad with 26 hits and a .394 on-base percentage.

Tennessee answered with an RBI single to shal-low right in front of a diving effort by junior right fielder Cameron Dishon to make it 4-1 in the sixth.

Ole Miss threatened loaded the bases with no-body out in the seventh. Or-vis made it a 4-2 game with a groundout to first for his team-leading 27th RBI of the season, but the Rebels were unable to score again.

The Rebels also brought the potential tying run to the plate in the eighth.

Ole Miss will play South-ern Mississippi at 6 p.m. Tuesday at Trustmark Park in Pearl.

Volunteers edge Rebels to take SEC series

BY JOHN ZENORThe Associated Press

MONTGOMERY, Ala. — Ala-bama has offered its men’s basket-ball job to former NBA player and head coach Avery Johnson, a per-son familiar with the negotiations said Sunday.

The person said Johnson and Al-abama are working on the details of a deal. The person spoke to The Associated Press Sunday on condi-tion of anonymity because no an-nouncement has been made about the coaching search.

Alabama Athletic Director Bill Battle didn’t return a call seeking comment.

ESPN first reported the contract talks. Johnson has been an NBA

analyst for the network since being fired by the Brooklyn Nets in De-cember 2012. He played 16 years in the NBA, much of it with the San Antonio Spurs.

Johnson would replace Anthony Grant, who was fired after making only one NCAA tournament six seasons.

This would be Johnson’s first col-lege coaching job, but he’s led two teams in the NBA. He started as an assistant with the Dallas Mavericks after retiring in 2004 and was ele-vated to the head coaching job five months later.

Johnson led the Mavericks to their first NBA Finals appearance and was the NBA Coach of the Year in 2006.

Johnson arrived in New Jersey

with a 194-70 record, a .735 winning percentage that was the highest in NBA history.

He was coach during the fran-chise’s move to Brooklyn. Johnson went from Eastern Conference Coach of the Month in November to being fired in the following month after the Nets lost 10 of 13 games.

As a player, he was part of the Spurs’ NBA championship team in 1999. He played for five teams and had three stints with the Spurs.

His son, Avery Johnson Jr., just finished his freshman season at Texas A&M, which also plays in the Southeastern Conference.

Alabama had targeted Wichita State coach Gregg Marshall, who decided to stay put.

pitching, solid defense and a few timely hits, it was just a solid outing all around. Cassady Knudsen got her first collegiate win with three scoreless in-nings, and big hits from Caroline Seitz and Mack-enzie Toler lifted us late when we needed it.”

In the bottom of the first, the Razorbacks re-corded their first run of the weekend on a solo home run with two outs.

Sophomore Katie Anne Bailey helped the Bull-dogs answer as she led off the second with a solo home run to left field.

Arkansas used another solo home run in the bot-tom half of the inning to re-take the lead.

Allison Stewart (4-5) suffered the relief loss. She allowed two runs on two hits in three innings

n No. 26 men’s tennis team beats No. 45 South Carolina: At Starkville, the No. 26 Mississippi State men’s tennis team (17-5, 8-2 SEC) defeated No. 45 South Carolina (12-13, 2-8) 4-1 Sunday at the A.J. Pitts Tennis Centre.

The win extends the Bulldogs’ win-ning streak to five. It also is the 10th win for MSU in its last 12 matches.

“Very good win for our guys today, especially coming off that tough win against Georgia on Friday,” MSU coach Matt Roberts said. “Sometimes its difficult to come off that kind of emotional high and play against a tough team like South Carolina. We could have been more ener-getic and more passionate at times, but, being young squad, I thought the guys did a good job of doing what they had to do to get the victory.”

The eight SEC wins are MSU’s most since it earned nine league victories in 2012.

MSU earned wins on courts two and three to take the doubles point.

In singles, the Bulldogs prevailed thanks to hard-fought victories from Mate Cutura, Rishab Agarwal, and Julian Cash. South Carolina secured its point thanks to a win on court four.

MSU will play at 5 p.m. Friday at No. 17 Vanderbilt.

n No. 44 women’s tennis team loses to No. 5 Georgia: At Athens, Geor-gia, the No. 44th women’s tennis team dropped a 7-0 decision to No. 5 Georgia on Sunday.

MSU dropped to 14-9 and 4-8 in the SEC with the loss, while Georgia earned its ninth home win of the season and im-proved to 17-4 and 10-1 in the SEC. The defeat was also MSU’s first shutout set-back of the season.

MSU will conclude the regular sea-son Saturday with a match at No. 26 Ole Miss.

WOMEN’S COLLEGE BASKETBALL

By The Associated Press

TAMPA, Fla. — The Notre Dame women’s bas-ketball team keeps finding ways to win. One more vic-tory and the Irish will be national champions again.

A young team that lost three starters from last year’s squad is back in the NCAA title game after fighting off a gallant come-back by Final Four new-comer South Carolina 66-65 on Sunday night.

All-American Jewell Loyd scored 22 points as the Irish (36-2) advanced to the championship game for the fourth time in five years, but it took a basket from an unlikely source to survive a scoring drought that lasted more than seven minutes down the stretch.

Madison Cable’s put-back for her only points of the night put the Irish in front for good.

“I was just crashing any way to try to get a rebound, and it kind of just bounced right where I was,” Cable said. “I turned around and had an open shot and took it. Luckily, it went in.”

Loyd said no one boxed out Cable on her game-win-ning basket, adding: “She’s done it all year. She’s the MVP.”

Now, Notre Dame will face two-time defending champion Connecticut (37-1) Tuesday night in a rematch of last year’s title game.

The Irish ran out to double-digit leads against South Carolina, but the Gamecocks wouldn’t go away.

“We didn’t rebound, missed a bunch of shots,” said Notre Dame coach Muffet McGraw. “Just a great basketball game. We went to Jewell. She had to do everything. Everyone contributed.”

Notre Dame is looking to win it all for the first time since McGraw led them to their only national title in 2001.

South Carolina (34-3) overcame a 12-point, first-

half deficit and did it again in the closing minutes. The feisty Gamecocks used a 13-0 run to take their only lead on Aleighsa Welch’s of-fensive stickback with 1:12 remaining.

“It came down to them making a play when they needed to make a play and we didn’t,” South Carolina coach Dawn Staley said.

Brianna Turner scored 17 points and grabbed eight rebounds before fouling out for Notre Dame. Taya Reimer had 16 points for Notre Dame.

Freshman A’ja Wil-son came off the bench to lead South Carolina with 20 points. She scored 10 straight for the Gamecocks at one point in the second half to keep her resilient team within striking dis-tance.

n UConn 81, Maryland 58: Geno Auriemma and UConn are one win away from a third-straight championship and matching another vaunted milestone.

Breanna Stewart scored 25 points and Morgan Tuck added 24 to lead UConn past Maryland on Sunday night in the Final Four.

UConn will face a familiar foe stands for the title Tuesday night, Notre Dame — a re-match of last season’s championship game.

“Every time we play Notre Dame, it’s something. I just have a lot of respect for what they’ve been able to do,” UConn coach Geno Auriemma said. “They’ve got a heck of a team and their team has gotten a lot better as the season has gone on. Jewell’s a great player, but all their other players have gotten significantly better since the begin-ning of the season.”

The Huskies are 9-0 in title games and a victory over the Irish would tie Au-riemma with vaunted UCLA men’s coach John Wooden for the most all-time with 10. It would also be the second three-peat for UConn, which won three-straight champi-onships from 2002-04. The last two titles of that run came against Tennessee, marking the only other time in NCAA tournament history that the same teams met in back-to-back championship games.

Making the Final Four seems like a rite of spring lately for the Huskies (37-1). They have appeared in the last eight national semifinals.

UConn had cruised through this year’s tournament, but Maryland coach Brenda Frese said her team wouldn’t be intimidated by the Huskies.

“I think the biggest thing against Mary-land is they can break you down with their guard play, and then they’re so big inside,” Auriemma said. “If you make a mistake on their guards, you’ve got the big guys to deal with. We needed to try and make sure that we only gave up one thing, that we didn’t give up both. So we tried to concentrate on taking away their 3s, which they’re really good at. And then try to create some mis-matches on this end with Tuck and Stewie because I thought that’s where we had the advantage.”

Notre Dame, UConn will meet again for title

2015 Baseball Payrolls NEW YORK — Payrolls for the opening day rosters of the 30 major league teams. Figures were obtained by The Associated Press from management and player sources and include salaries and pro-rated shares of signing bo-nuses for players on the 25-man active roster, disabled lists and restricted list. In some cases, parts of salaries deferred without interest are discounted to reflect present-day values. Ad-justments includes cash transactions in trades, signing bonuses that are responsibility of club that agreed to contract, option buyouts and ter-mination pay for released players. Opening-day rosters were due to MLB by 2 p.m. Sunday.Team PayrollLos Angeles Dodgers ............... $270,226,335N.Y.

FAMILY CIRCUS

DEAR ABBY: My wife, “Connie,”

and I have been together for 30 years and have a wonderful marriage. She’s a schoolteacher, and I travel on business often. I think the time away from each other is good; it gives us a chance to enjoy some “me” time.

Connie is a genuinely nice person and makes friends easily, which I admire. Howev-er, over the last five years she has become very close with a divorced woman who teaches at her school. They text each other seemingly nonstop, and when I travel, they always get together for a movie or dinner.

I like Connie’s friend, and I used to be included — or at least invited — to anything they did. Now, if I suggest we all go out, Connie says her friend has other plans or

she’s sick.I’m not really

concerned that there’s any kind of physical rela-tionship between them, but I feel their friendship has become like an “emotional affair.” When I brought this up with my wife, she said, “You don’t want me to have any friends?”

What bothers me is that I

used to be Connie’s best friend, but I feel I have been replaced. She tries to reas-sure me I’m still No. 1, then goes off into her bathroom to text with her friend. I think it’s obvious she gets something from this relationship that she doesn’t get from me. Do you think friendships between women can evolve into emo-tional affairs? — SHUT OUT IN TEXAS

DEAR SHUT OUT: Women communicate with other

women on a different level than they do with men. You and your wife and her woman friend may have felt like the Three Musketeers years ago when the three of you would all get together — but it’s possible that after a while her friend began to feel like a third wheel.

Who can say why she doesn’t want to socialize with you. Perhaps you don’t have enough in common, or per-haps she has sensed that you are jealous of her friendship with your wife. But I wouldn’t call close friendships among women “emotional affairs” because I don’t think it’s true.

Since this bothers you enough to write to me, and Connie seems to be com-municating in secret, please discuss this in depth with her.

Dear Abby

HoroscopesTODAY’S BIRTHDAY (April

6). The windfall at the top of your solar return happens because you fully appreciate what you have and use it to your greatest advantage. A VIP will like the way you maximize your resources, and you’ll be promoted in June. Relationships take you on a thrilling ride in August. You’ll see new parts of the world. Virgo and Sagittarius people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 3, 19, 22, 14 and 1.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). When you worry too much about offending people, it puts a strain on natural interaction. The same goes

for when you worry too much about impressing them.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Those who try to appeal to everyone usually wind up appealing to no one. To have the greatest appeal, target a specific group — an audience you understand well because you’re the same.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You have a low tolerance for rules now. A loose plan will best suit your current creative mindset. Let your imagination lead you, and you’ll like where you wind up.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Though you shine when you compete with your own past performance, a winning

game strategy will also in-volve assessing the strengths and weaknesses of the competition.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). This is no time to take a chance on the new guy. Speculative ventures will be a waste of time. Do business with the one who has done hundreds if not thousands of jobs just like the one you need done.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You want someone’s love, but you don’t need it. To win this person’s heart you must first honor and cherish yourself in the way you hope to be honored and cherished.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). To attract the change you desire, you first have to believe you’re capable of changing. It also helps when you believe down deep that this new version of you is what the world needs.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). It’s possible to grow closer to a person you know rather completely. Just when you think there’s nothing left to discover, an interesting question or novel situation will show you another side.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You don’t mind making most of the effort in a relationship, especially for a limited amount of time. The pendulum will soon swing, and it will be the other per-son’s turn to put in more.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). It’s easy for you to open up, but you’re careful not to do so indiscriminately. When you provide intrigue for others, you’re giving them a gift. You’ll say less and coyly build the mystery.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’ve come to the end of a cycle, or rather you’ll decide it’s the end and make your exit. Maybe this ending won’t be as neat as you’d like, but in time, this piece of the past will go into a fitting emotional compartment.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your wishes may not be a top priority for the others in your group. Telling the right story — the one that high-lights what’s in it for them — will help them reprioritize in your favor.

Daily Bridge Club

Monday, April 6, 2015

To start the week, try to draw awinning inference on defense. Coverthe East and South cards; defend asWest. (Hint: Pay heed to the bidding.)

When you lead the king of heartsagainst four spades, East signals withthe jack, presumably showing“count,” and declarer follows withthe ten. East must have raised withJ-9-8-4. What do you lead next?

The actual West shifted to the aceand a low club — not good enough.South won, cashed the ace of trumpsand led another trump. East’s kingwon the defenders’ last trick. Makingfour.

OVERTRICK

West must hope East has a trumptrick, otherwise declarer will surelymake an overtrick, and East mustalso get a ruff. But if East had a handsuch as K 5 4, J 9 8 4, 8 7 4 3 2, 4, hewould have jumped to three hearts,preemptive, over North’s double.

West must instead play East for adoubleton club. At Trick Two Westleads a low club. When East takes hisking of trumps, he can return his lastclub and get his ruff.

Did you beat four spades?

DAILY QUESTION

You hold: ♠ 7 ♥♥ A K 7 5 2 ♦♦ 10 9 5 ♣ A 6 5 2. Your partneropens one spade, you bid two hearts,he rebids two spades and you try

2NT. Partner bids three diamonds.What do you say?

ANSWER: Partner has six spades,four diamonds and a minimum hand.With extra strength, his second bidwould have been three spades or twodiamonds. You have options. To passor bid three spades might work. Sinceyou have prime honors and the 10-9of diamonds, you might try fourspades.

Meanwhile, Okafor and his merry band of freshmen — Justise Winslow, Tyus Jones and Grayson Allen — have ris-en to the challenge of the game’s biggest stage. The four led the way in a semi-final blowout of Michigan State, a game never in question after the first five minutes.

“We want to be one of those teams that coach is bragging about five, seven years later,” senior guard Quinn Cook said. “So that’s the motivation for us, to be special.”

As if they needed any more motivation, Krzyze-wski has been waving his 2010 title ring in their

faces all tournament. He earned it in Indianapolis, in the same building as this year’s Final Four, and steps away from where he won his first champion-ship at the Hoosier Dome in 1991.

“That’s what we want to get,” Okafor said, glancing at the glittering ring on Coach K’s hand. “We’ve always talked about us having an oppor-tunity to have a national championship ring.”

The loveable goofballs from Wisconsin (36-3) are standing in their way, and nobody can argue they haven’t earned the right. Only three oth-er teams have faced the highest possible seed in every game on the way to

the championship since the field expanded to 64 in 1985.

Two of those lost in the title game. None had to face another No. 1 seed.

“They know they have a chance to make a mark in history. They under-stand that,” Ryan said Sunday. “But they’re en-joying it while they do it, and that’s important, too.”

The Badgers have be-come the clown princes of the NCAA tournament. From messing with ste-nographers to podium hijinks, to their penchant for playing Super Smash Bros., the free-spirited Big Ten champs have tak-en an entire fan base — and plenty of casual fans — on quite ride.

still owed to the oft-injured Quentin and Maybin.

“With the chance to ac-quire Kimbrel, who’s one of the best in the game, if not the best, it was a price we were willing to pay,” Preller said during a con-ference call. “He’s an A-lev-el performer. He’s 26 years old. It’s an opportunity to strengthen our club.”

Taking on the remain-ing $46.35 million on Melvin Upton’s contract appeared to be the price for landing Kimbrel, who is owed a guaranteed $34 million. Melvin Upton was placed on the disabled list Saturday with a foot injury.

Preller said the Padres weren’t necessarily “mo-tivated to try to get Mel-vin and Justin together as

brothers. It was a situation where we felt overall the deal fit for us and we at-tempted to go out and add quality pieces to get Craig Kimbrel in this deal.”

Kimbrel led the NL for the second-straight year with 47 saves after saving 50 games in 2013, which tied Baltimore’s Jim John-son for the major league lead. Kimbrel was tied for most in the NL in both 2011 (46) and 2012 (42).

Since his first full sea-son in 2011, when he won the NL Rookie of the Year award, Kimbrel leads all closers with 185 saves. He has been an All-Star each of the last four seasons.

Preller said Kimbrel was trying to catch a plane in Miami to make it to Los An-

geles in time for the Padres’ opener against the Clayton Kershaw and the Dodgers on Monday afternoon.

Huston Street led San Diego with 24 saves last year before being traded to the Angels. Joaquin Benoit, the incumbent closer be-fore Kimbrel was obtained, had 11 saves last year.

The Upton brothers played together for two sea-sons in Atlanta. Melvin Up-ton missed most of spring training — he didn’t have a single big league exhibition at-bat — and Preller said the Braves felt he will not be ready to play in a game for three-to-four weeks.

Melvin Upton is owed $14.45 million this year, $15.45 million in 2016 and $16.45 million in 2017.
