Another ex-Cub, Tim Federowicz, added another homer off Daury Torrez in the Giants’ five-run ninth. Arrieta ready Jake Arrieta pitched four innings in his final start of the spring, giving up a leadoff homer to Denard Span during a two-run, four-hit, three-strikeout, 36-pitch first. But he retired 10 of his final 11 faced, needing just 36 pitches total for the final three innings. “I’m getting close,” said Arrieta, who struck out seven and walked none. “There’s still some things that we’ll continue to work on, but that’s kind of the story of the season. … It was good. No walks. I hit [Nick] Hundley. There’s a couple pitches that are getting away. … But it’s getting better.” Arrieta plans to throw on the side Thursday and Saturday in preparation for his season debut Tuesday in St. Louis. Happ rap The day after getting sent to minor-league camp after a torrid big-league spring, infield prospect Ian Happ came off the bench as an invited bench player and doubled twice, including a two-run hit during the Cubs’ four-run sixth inning. He’s 22-for-53 (.415) this spring with 11 extra-base hits and a Cactus League-high 19 RBIs. October redux The Cubs went 2-4-1 this spring against their three playoff opponents from last fall: the Giants (0-2), Dodgers (2-0) and Indians (0-2-1). Crowd sourcing The Cubs on Tuesday drew a spring-season-high 15,513 – exactly 10 short of last year’s Cactus League record (March 20 vs. Royals). Zobrist returns Second baseman Ben Zobrist, who had been sidelined with neck stiffness since early last week, returned to the lineup and expected to be ready for Sunday’s opener. He flied to right twice and walked in three trips to the plate. It was Zobrist’s first game since the neck tightened up near the end of that last game he played, March 19. On deck Athletics at Cubs, Mesa, 3:05 p.m., cubs.com audio, John Lackey vs. Kendall Graveman. -- Chicago Sun-Times Cubs’ Jason Heyward: Next 6 months will answer if overhaul worked By Gordon Wittenmyer MESA, Ariz. — On the seventh pitch of an at-bat in the sixth inning Tuesday, the Cubs’ Jason Heyward lined a double into the gap in right-center field against the Giants’ Matt Cain. In the game before that, Heyward walked three times. In his final at-bat of the game before that, he homered. So is Heyward fixed? Is the $184 million right fielder, who slumped to the worst offensive season of his career in 2016, back to career-average form now that the offseason work and nearly all of spring training is done? ‘‘I don’t know,’’ Heyward said. ‘‘You’ll get the answer to that at the end of the season.’’ Maybe that’s the nature of these things. It’s certainly the only part that matters. Heyward worked daily for long stretches of the winter with hitting coaches John Mallee and Eric Hinske, trying in part to re-create the swing and success he had when he hit a career-high 27 home runs in 2012. He seems more at ease in his second season with the Cubs in the clubhouse and, some suggest, on the field. He said Tuesday he likes where he is physically and mentally at the plate, especially in recent games. And while Heyward’s swing doesn’t look dramatically different, his hands are lower, giving him a chance to get to the ball quicker, and there’s less wasted movement in his setup than even early in the spring schedule. But not even he will guess what it might produce once the regular season starts Sunday in St. Louis. Depending on the scout you talk with in Arizona, Heyward looks like the same basic hitter who hit .230 with seven homers and was benched during the playoffs or shows signs of renewed life and confidence that might translate to the bounce-back season he and the Cubs are looking for. ‘‘I like what he’s doing right now,’’ manager Joe Maddon said. ‘‘I thought the swings have been really good lately. I see them making constant progress. I see a lot of difference.’’ The Cubs won 103 games and the World Series last season despite Heyward’s struggles at the plate but also because of what he provided with his Gold Glove defense, heady baserunning and work ethic. If he can raise his career-worst .631 OPS even 100 points, it might be a significant factor in the Cubs’ efforts to repeat. Heyward said his work in the last four months has been both a physical and mental process. ‘‘The last few games, I’ve gone up there with the mindset of swinging at every pitch and letting my eyes tell me, ‘No,’ ’’ Heyward said. ‘‘That’s how you be aggressive in the strike zone. ‘‘I’m not talking about results [he still is hitting only .163 this spring], just the mindset and approach of each at-bat. As far as timing and just being able to go up there and react, I feel like [I’ve] been able to do that here these last few games. ‘‘I like how it feels. The approach is good. Trusting that, being able to trust myself to lay off pitches not in the zone when you’re being aggressive in the strike zone, swinging at strikes — that’s what I want to do.’’ Left-hander Jon Lester, who admitted he struggled at times in the first season of his $155 million deal, called it ‘‘just human nature’’ for Heyward to have struggled in his first season after the big deal — and to rebound to career norms this season. ‘‘You’re coming into a place where you don’t know a lot of guys,’’ Lester said.

  • A's News Clips, Saturday, July 23, 2011 New York Yankees Put Hurt
    A’s News Clips, Saturday, July 23, 2011 New York Yankees put hurt on Trevor Cahill, Oakland A's in 17-7 romp By Joe Stiglich, Oakland Tribune NEW YORK -- Trevor Cahill took his struggles against the New York Yankees to another level Friday night at Yankee Stadium. The A's right-hander was charged with a career-high 10 earned runs in a 17-7 blowout defeat to open a three-game series. The A's have now lost 11 straight to the Yankees. Cahill allowed nine hits and lasted just two-plus innings in the shortest start of his career. After being staked to a 2-0 lead, he allowed five runs in the bottom of the second. Then he allowed Nick Swisher's three-run homer in the third, as the Yankees batted around in a nine-run rally. Michael Wuertz relieved Cahill in the third but fared no better, walking in two runs before allowing Mark Teixeira's grand slam. Cahill's 10 earned runs were the most allowed by an A's starter since Gio Gonzalez surrendered 11 to the Twins on July 20, 2009. Oakland A's update: Rookie second baseman Jemile Weeks savors first trip to Yankee Stadium By Joe Stiglich, Oakland Tribune NEW YORK -- When A's rookie second baseman Jemile Weeks arrived at Yankee Stadium on Friday afternoon, he immediately went out to the field to take it all in. "You're talking a big deal, first time at Yankee Stadium," Weeks said. "It's an exciting time for me, just to look at the stadium and out into the stands to get a feel of what it's like." Weeks certainly played inspired in his first visit to the ballpark.

  • LINE DRIVES the NATIONAL COLLEGIATE BASEBALL WRITERS NEWSLETTER (Volume 48, No
    LINE DRIVES THE NATIONAL COLLEGIATE BASEBALL WRITERS NEWSLETTER (Volume 48, No. 3, Apr. 17, 2009) The President’s Message By NCBWA President Joe Dier NCBWA Membership: With the 2008-09 hoops season now in the record books, the collegiate spotlight is focusing more closely on the nation’s baseball diamonds. Though we’re heading into the final month of the season, there are still plenty of twists and turns ahead on the road to Omaha and the 2009 NCAA College World Series. The NCAA will soon be announcing details of next month’s tournament selection announcements naming the regional host sites (May 24) and the 64-team tournament field (May 25). To date, four different teams have claimed the top spot in the NCBWA’s national Division I polls --- Arizona State, Georgia, LSU, and North Carolina. Several other teams have graced the No. 1 position in other national polls. The NCAA’s mid-April RPI listing has Cal State Fullerton leading the 301-team pack, with 19 teams sporting 25-win records through games of April 12. For the record, New Mexico State tops the wins list with a 30-6 mark. As the conference races heat up from coast to coast, the NCBWA will begin the process for naming its All- America teams and the Divk Howser Trophy (see below).
