SAN DIEGO -- Colin Kaepernick looks ready for his first full season as a starter. Mike McCoys San Diego Chargers look as if they could use a few more weeks of training camp. Kaepernick threw a touchdown pass to cap his only drive, and the San Francisco 49ers roughed up the Chargers 41-6 in the preseason finale for both teams Thursday night. Kaepernick faked an inside handoff and then threw a short sidearm pass to Quinton Patton, who deked rookie free agent Marcus Cromartie and completed the 43-yard scoring play. Coach Jim Harbaugh started the first-team offence of the 49ers (3-1), while McCoy sat his first-team defence. The Chargers (1-3) had a bad night. Backup quarterback Charlie Whitehurst was sacked four times in the first half and third-stringer Brad Sorensen threw two interceptions in the second half. San Francisco linebacker Cam Johnson sacked Whitehurst twice and blocked a punt by Mike Scifres and recovered it in the end zone for a touchdown late in the third quarter. The defending NFC champion 49ers open at home against Green Bay a week from Sunday. The Chargers, whove missed the playoffs for three straight seasons, open at home against Houston a week from Monday. Chargers wide receiver Robert Meachem, who has a guaranteed $5 million salary, had four catches before sustaining a concussion. Hes been a forgotten man since dropping a potential touchdown pass in a 7-6 loss at Cleveland last season. Niners free agent pickup Lavelle Hawkins had a spectacular 45-yard touchdown play in the fourth quarter. A short pass from B.J. Daniels bounced off Hawkins hands and into the air, but the receiver grabbed it before being hit by rookie safety Jahleel Addae. Addae didnt wrap up, and Hawkins swept to the left and finished the scoring run for a 34-6 lead. Kaepernick is heading into his first full season as a starter after making 10 starts last year and leading the 49ers to the Super Bowl, where they lost to the Baltimore Ravens. With Harbaugh playing his starters, the mismatch paid off as the 49ers moved 77 yards in seven plays for the score. Kaepernick completed 3 of 4 passes for 64 yards for a rating of 156.2. He didnt have any carries. Colt McCoy, selected as the backup last weekend after he restructured his contract, replaced Kaepernick and played into the third quarter. McCoy also threw a touchdown pass, a 5-yarder to Anthony Dixon in the second quarter. McCoy completed 8 of 15 passes for 56 yards. Daniels also threw a 15-yard touchdown pass to rookie Chuck Jacobs. Daniels had a 36-yard run on that drive. Whitehurst was 9 of 12 for 86 yards, with one interception. Max Starks, who apparently has lost the competition for the starting job at left tackle to King Dunlap, was repeatedly beaten and gave up three sacks. The other sack was allowed by right tackle Mike Harris, who played left tackle last year as a rookie. Brad Sorensen, San Diegos rookie third-string QB, was intercepted twice. San Diegos Nick Novak kicked field goals of 41 and 48. Chargers rookie linebacker Manti Teo was back in his walking boot as he watched the game from the sideline in a sweatsuit. Teo sprained his right foot in the exhibition opener against Seattle on Aug. 8. He Teo was out of the boot Tuesday, although he hasnt been cleared to practice. New Balance Uk Sale .

He needed more work. Straily pitched seven scoreless innings to lead the Oakland Athletics to a 2-1 victory over the Houston Astros. Yoenis Cespedes and Jed Lowrie homered as the As won for the seventh time in nine games to remain on top of the AL West. They began the day with a half-game lead over Texas. "I guess its a good thing when you have to ride the bike after the game," Straily said. "I had good fastball command and it helped set up my other pitches." Straily (9-7) allowed two hits, struck out seven and walked one in his third consecutive victory. The right-hander has a 1.50 ERA over 18 innings during his winning streak. Dan Otero allowed a run in the eighth, but Sean Doolittle got four outs for his first save in four chances, completing the five-hitter. "That was awesome," Doolittle said of Straily. "He was in control all day long. That was a really big start. It was only a one-run lead but it kind of seemed like the game was in hand with him on the mound." Doolittle said he was a little more ramped up for his second career save as well. "Its a different beast going out there for the save," he said. "That was a rush for sure." Brandon Barnes had a run-scoring fielders choice for Houstons only run. The major league-worst Astros have dropped nine of 12. Houston starter Brett Oberholtzer (4-2) pitched six stellar innings, allowing one run and seven hits. Straily retired his last nine hitters and 12 of his final 13 batters. He allowed one runner to reach third and he was stranded when Jonathan Villar was thrown out at second by Cespedes trying to stretch his single. "With them being an aggressive team, which you can see all over the field, sometimes it can help if I can match that aggressiveness," Straily said. Matt Dominguez hit a leadoff double in the fifth, but Straily struck out Chris Carter and Brett Wallace, and Matt Pagnozzi grounded out to shortstop.dddddddddddd Oberholtzer gave up Cespedes 22nd homer leading off the fourth. After Nate Freiman singled, Oberholtzer retired nine of his final 11 hitters. "He pitched very well," Astros manager Bo Porter said. "He left the one pitch up to Cespedes and Cespedes put a charge into it but overall he did a tremendous job of battling and kept us right there." Lowrie connected with two out in the seventh against Josh Zeid. Wallace doubled with one out in the eighth and eventually scored on Barnes slow grounder to the pitcher. Barnes stole second and then tried to take third, but Doolittle stepped off the mound and easily threw him out. "I couldnt believe he tried to go again," As catcher Kurt Suzuki said. "It was a tie game and hes a fast guy. We did the inside move and he was running again. Good for us." NOTES: As LHP Hideki Okajima cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Sacramento. ...
