A chartered Boeing 777 touched down at Sydney airport on Monday morning, delivering the California Golden Bears and team officials Down Under for their much-anticipated opening college football game of the season on Saturday against Hawaii.The 14-hour flight left San Francisco just after midnight Saturday night. The 100-plus players and coach Sonny Dykes, who were greeted by cheerleaders as they walked off the plane, missed the remainder of Sunday when they crossed the International Date Line in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.No worries, the Golden Bears will pick up that time when they return to the U.S. after the game, arriving back in California earlier in the day than their time of departure from Sydney, due to the 17-hour time difference in their favor.Organizers say Saturdays midday game -- prime time Friday night in the U.S. -- at Sydneys Olympic stadium is expected to attract a crowd of more than 65,000.Hawaii had less time in the air, 10-1/2 hours from Honolulu. Former Rainbow Warrior quarterback Nick Rolovich, making his debut as head coach, and his team arrived Sunday. It will be the seventh straight year that Hawaii has opened against a Pac-12 opponent, and Hawaii is 2-4 in that span.Hawaii has had six Australians on its roster in the past, and this years squad includes Sydney native and first-year defensive lineman Max Hendrie.Dykes planned to keep the players up Monday to get them used to the time difference, and what better way than to schedule a practice within three hours of their arrival.The rest of the week will include a public reception Tuesday at the Opera House and morning meetings followed by noon practices most days, leaving the players free time in the afternoon and evening. There will be a Cal team trip to the Sydney Harbour Bridge.This is my senior year and Im here to win a football game, quarterback Davis Webb said before the team left California. Thats the way Im approaching it. Ill walk around Sydney, see the culture and embrace it and maybe eat lamb because everybody talks about that.Webb, who Dykes has already named as starting quarterback, is one of the key Cal additions this year, replacing Jared Goff, the No. 1 overall NFL draft pick by the Los Angeles Rams.A graduate transfer from Texas Tech, Webb played in 23 games with 14 starts over three seasons, with career totals of 5,557 yards and 46 touchdowns. Hes enrolled in Cals public health masters program.Dykes says he and the team are embracing the trip. Some of the players had never left the U.S., so organizing passports was among the preparations needed for the season opener.When you have an opportunity as an 18-year-old to go across the world to a different continent, see a completely different culture, explore a place you might never have had an opportunity to explore, just the impact that can have on your life is great, Dykes said before leaving. The value of that, you cant determine that.The game, with Cal designated as the home team, will be the first college football game played in Sydney and the first significant American football game played in Australia since 1999. Then, the Denver Broncos beat the San Diego Chargers 20-17 on Jason Elams 30-yard field goal on the final play of the game in the preseason American Bowl. Also played at the Olympic stadium, that game attracted more than 73,000 spectators.It is the first college football game to be played in Australia since Brigham Young defeated Colorado State in 1987 in Melbourne.

BALTIMORE -- When a pitcher walks off the mound in the middle of an at-bat in a start in which he has not yet allowed a hit, a trip to the disabled list usually follows shortly thereafter.But that might not be the case for Boston Red Sox left-hander Eduardo Rodriguez.Rodriguez was lifted from Tuesday nights game after throwing two pitches in the fifth inning against the Baltimore Orioles because of tightness in his left hamstring. By the time the game ended, though, Rodriguez had loosened up enough that theres a chance he will be able to make his next start, scheduled for Sunday in Detroit.Ive got to wait for what the trainers say, Rodriguez said after the Red Sox won 5-3 on two homers and five RBIs by American League MVP candidate Mookie Betts. Ive got to work [between starts] and see how I feel, if I feel good.As Red Sox manager John Farrell said, I think we got it early enough to where it doesnt seem to be a significant restriction at this point. But well know more as we get through the coming days.Rodriguez said he began feeling the hamstring tightness on his second-to-last pitch of the fourth inning, when hhe struck out Orioles sluggers Jonathan Schoop, Manny Machado and Mark Trumbo in order.dddddddddddd The sensation didnt subside in the fifth inning.I was feeling like it was getting worse, so I didnt want to do something to something inside of there, Rodriguez said. I feel like we made the right decision before it got worse.Until then, Rodriguez was dominant, retiring 12 of 13 batters, seven by strikeout. Chris Davis was the only batter who reached base -- on a two-out walk in the second inning. The Orioles didnt get their first hit until an infield single by Steve Pearce in the seventh inning.Tuesdays effort was the continuation of a solid stretch for Rodriguez, who has a 2.52 ERA in seven starts since returning from a brief banishment to Triple-A to correct issues with his mechanics.Hes relaxed, hes free, Farrell said. He had such good life to that swing-and-miss fastball through the zone. He elevated at the appropriate times. Threw enough secondary pitches to keep guys off stride. ' ' '
