San Francisco Giants Update
|

Time to celebrate! The Giants outfield celebrated their 5-4 win over the Philadelphia Phillies on this night by getting some air. Celebrants included left fielder Jarrett Parker (6), center fielder Denard Span (obscured) and a very high-flying right fielder, Hunter Pence.

San Francisco Giants Update:
It was a battle between the National League's worst clubs this week as the Philadelphia Phillies, the only NL team with a worse record than the Giants, visited AT&T Park. The teams split the four-game series, with starters Jeff Samardzija and Matt Moore getting wins in the first two games. Madison Bumgarner pitched a gem on Sunday afternoon, but bullpen issues reminiscent of the beginning of the season, came back to haunt the Giants. San Francisco entered the eight inning up a run, but reliever Hunter Strickland gave up three runs on six hits, letting the Phillies steal the series finale. Prior to the Phillies series, the Giants finished a short road trip to Miami, where they dropped two-out-of-three to the Marlins. Giants pitching was hit early and often, with the Marlins scoring eight runs in each of their wins. Next on the schedule, the Giants finish their home stand against the Milwaukee Brewers before traveling to Arizona to face the Diamondbacks.

Oakland Athletics Update:
The Oakland A's faced tough competition this past week, taking on the Kansas City Royals at home before hitting the road to play the Houston Astros. The Royals series guaranteed a disappointing home stand, as the A's lost two-out-of-three to the 2015 World Champions and finished with a 3-6 record. On the road, the Athletics struggled to produce runs against the division leaders, scoring a total of four runs over the three-game set. Luckily, three of those runs came in the series finale and were just enough to avoid the sweep. While the A's have struggled with leaving runners on-base at times, the team had trouble even putting runners on-base in Houston. As of Sunday, Oakland ranks in the bottom five of the league in team on-base percentage and batting average, while also having the fourth-most strikeouts in the Majors. The Astros series is a perfect example of the pitching staff doing their job while the offense was unable to contribute. This week the A's will try to get their bats going against the Baltimore Orioles and Texas Rangers.

For over a decade, the Oakland Raiders have taken time to visit veterans who reside at the Veterans Home of California, located in Yountville, which is near the Silver and Black's summer training camp in Napa. This year was no different, as while the team was conducting training camp practice a few miles away, Raiders alumni Morris Bradshaw (1974-81) and Howie Williams (1964-69) spent time with over 100 aged or disabled veterans, both men and women. "It's such a positive environment that we look forward to this every year," said Bradshaw. "The men and women who live here, their attitudes are just outstanding." Above, Raiders alumni Morris Bradshaw (left) and Howie Williams flank veteran and Raiders fan Henry Augustus during their visit.

US National Windsurfing Festival
|

The last race of the U.S. Windsurfing National Championships was a long distance race from San Francisco to the Berkeley Marina and back. The conditions were classic bay craziness this year, with big swell and high winds. Here we can see Mike Percey (left) and Eric Christiansen passing in front of the city. Mike was second overall in this race, and Eric was first in the Formula class. Photo by Rich Yee.

Bay Area rider Eric Christiansen has been racing for close to 15 years. Eric was first overall in the U.S. Nationals, and in this picture you can see him riding his Formula race board to windward with the Richmond Bridge in the background. It takes a tremendous amount of skill and strength to handle the big powerful sails used in this racing class, especially in the intense wind of the bay. Eric makes it look easy. Photo by Rich Yee.

The best kiteboarders in the world were in town last week for the Hydrofoil Pro Tour. Propelled by giant kites, riding on tiny boards and carbon fiber hydrofoil wings, the racers achieve speeds in excess of 40 miles per hour, flying over the water. In this picture you can see the fleet crossing in front of Alcatraz Island, at the start of the long distance race.

Tight 5 7's Social Tournament
|
|
The Tight 5 7s Social Tournament is one of the most popular events of the year and was held on Treasure Island on Aug. 5. Nothing serious was at stake; just the fun of the game and a festive atmosphere for all, including the kids. The referees were volunteers. It was great camaraderie, which is a hallmark of rugby throughout the world. The Tournament, now in its sixth year, was organized by Tournament founder, Jacob Nelson. Above, the bearded Sea Cock, aka Fresno Thunder Cocks, faces a sure tackle by the fast closing former professional Sacramento Express standout, Josh Inong, playing with Santa Rosa in the Tournament.

Teams at the Tight 5 7's Social Tournament were handicapped. Upon arrival they were weighed in. For men, neutral was 225 pounds; for women, neutral was 185 pounds. Age 40 for both. Over these standards you got points, under cost you. The ideal guy was a 60-year-old, 300-pounder. The worst, a 20-year-old, 150-pound speedster. There were 14 men's teams and four women's teams. Above, Big Dive is a Marin Rugby Football Club acrobat playing against a very young Santa Rosa JC team.

Eddie Hart -- NCAA, Olympic Trials, and Olympic champion
|
|
Disqualified:
Eddie Hart, Munich 1972, and the Voices of the Most Tragic Olympics
By Dave Newhouse
|
Sometimes books happen by accident. That's how my newest book came to be, by bumping into someone. This person happened to be Eddie Hart, 1972 Olympic gold medalist in track and field, who was attending the same luncheon as myself three years ago. I had written about Eddie's world-record sprinting accomplishments in the past, but I didn't know him all that well. But he mentioned that he was writing his memoirs, and suddenly a grand plan took shape out of the blue (and gold, since it was a Cal alumni luncheon).
The Munich Olympics of '72? Hart's disqualification in the 100-meter dash, swimmer Mark Spitz' seven gold medals, gymnastics darling Olga Korbut, the basketball travesty where the Russians stole the gold medal from the USA, Bob Seagren's disabuse at the pole vault pit, and Rick DeMent's disqualification in swimming. Big stories, yet sub-plots to the real story of those Summer Games -- the eight Arab terrorists who killed 11 Israeli athletes and coaches.
These riveting memories came back to me in a flash, and I relayed them to Hart one by one. His response: "Maybe you'd like to help me write the book."
Like I said, it happened by accident, rather than some grand plan that had been in the works for months. Thus began a 30-month project, which required Hart and I, accompanied by his photographer son, flying to Munich to recreate the past -- Hart's first time back in Munich since his devastating disqualification, softened somewhat by his gold-medal anchor leg in the 400-meter relay. Fortunately, we had secured a publisher, Kent State University Press, which released Hart's book, Disqualified: Eddie Hart, Munich 1972, and the Voices of the Most Tragic Olympics, in mid-August.
Using a track analogy, there were many legs to this story, dating back before Hart's childhood, when his father was forced to pick up body parts following the 1944 explosion which killed 300 men, two-thirds of them African Americans, at the Naval Weapons Station in Pittsburg, CA, which led to the desegregation of the Navy. And so Eddie was born into a family of heroes.
While recounting Hart's family history, and documenting his track achievements -- NCAA 100 champion at Cal, Olympic Trials 100 winner -- we structured the book by interviewing important members of the USA's Olympic team: Spitz, Seagren, DeMent, and Tom McMillen from the victimized basketball team, which had won the game, it thought, 50-49. Then four seconds were added to the clock, in two installments, enabling the Soviets to throw a long pass for a game-winning layup. The American team has refused the silver medal to this very day.
The only person we couldn't reach was Korbut, now living in Arizona. But by phoning Tel Aviv, we did get interviews with two Israelis -- a race walker and an interpreter -- who escaped the Arab's Black September group. And in Munich, we spoke with a German who won a gold medal in the javelin at Munich, and a German journalist who shed light on Eastern Bloc Olympians and their steroid abuse during that era, which has since come to light.
Additional USA Olympians from '72 supplied memories from those tarnished Games, which led to rules changes at subsequent Olympiads. And the disqualification of Hart and fellow sprinter Rey Robinson, who both showed up late for a 100 quarterfinal heat, cast blame on their sprint coach, Stan Wright, who was further victimized by Howard Cosell, who interviewed the crushed Wright right afterwards. Wright went to his grave carrying this burden, but this book will prove that it really wasn't his fault.
Hart and Robinson share an emotional epilogue, discussing how Munich shaped their lives. What rings true throughout the book, however, is Hart's sterling character, as he refused to throw Wright under the bus. Dr. Cornel West, a noted theologian, wrote the book's eloquent foreword. Disqualified: is available at book stores or on
amazon.com
