New faces, new places: Ohtani, Soto headline MLB players with new teams in 2024
Shohei Ohtani's 31-mile journey north on Interstate 5 during free agency was the highlight of Major League Baseball's offseason, even if recent off-the-field developments have clouded his first season with the Los Angeles Dodgers. The Dodgers and San Diego Padres got the season started last week in Seoul, South Korea, with the teams splitting a two-game series. Young slugger Juan Soto was dealt to the New York Yankees while the Baltimore Orioles added hard-throwing righty Corbin Burnes as they try to win back-to-back titles in the AL East.
Dice is nice: Santa Rosa club on a roll playing legendary baseball board game
Lance Lantow and the San Francisco Giants both are three-time World Series champions. But Lantow has experienced something the Giants have not – a title clinching at Oracle Park. The Giants still have him beat on parades. Lantow isn't a major league manager, he's a member of the Santa Rosa Strat Club. In an age of baseball video games can pass for the real thing and fantasy leagues keep score in real time, the group is a throwback. They gather at Ausiello's Fifth Street Bar and Grill in downtown Santa Rosa once a week to play a dice-based baseball board game that debuted in 1961 known as Strat-O-Matic. Or simply Strat. Heidi Hartman throws the dices during a Strat-o-Matic tabletop dice baseball

SF Giants' right-hander dominates in final spring tune-up
The San Francisco Giants could not have asked for much more from right-hander Jordan Hicks in his final tuneup before the start of the regular season. Hicks was dominant Monday in his final start of spring training, striking out 10 while not allowing a hit in five innings as the Giants beat the Oakland A's 4-1 at the Coliseum in the first game of the exhibition Bay Bridge Series. Hicks, making the transition back to being a starting pitcher after spending last season as a reliever for both the St. Louis Cardinals and Toronto Blue Jays, retired 14 straight batters after he walked A's second baseman Zack Gelof in the first inning.
Bay Bridge series: Oakland A's flop against SF Giants in return to East Bay
The Oakland A's fans who braved the blustery winds on Monday endured a dismal and all-too-familiar sight: their overmatched home team flailing at the plate and on the mound. In the team's first, albeit preseason, game at the Coliseum of the year, the A's were defeated by the San Francisco Giants 4-1 in the first of a two-game series between the Bay Area rivals. A's rookie outfielder Lawrence Butler broke up a no-hitter in the sixth inning with a single, and gave the fans something else to cheer about when he stole second on a flyball. Abraham Toro's RBI single drove in Butler and elicited the closest thing to a roar the Oakland portion of the reported 7,850 fans could muster during what could be the first home game of the team's last season in Oakland.
