Greg Anderson, Barry Bonds' former personal trainer, has refused to testify to a federal grand jury who is investigating Bonds. Anderson could face more jail time for his refusal to tesify, but that will be decided in future hearings on the matter.

The Giants scratched right fielder Moises Alou from the starting lineup Wednesday night, then quickly placed him on the disabled list with strained lower back.
Alou, who had been expected to return Tuesday night in the interleague opener against the Rangers, missed his ninth straight game. The move is retroactive to June 18.
Alou, who turns 40 on Monday, missed 28 games with a sprained ankle May 6 to June 5. He is batting .311 this season with nine home runs and 31 RBIs.
"It's not too good," said Alou, who had a cortisone shot Monday. The shot helped "a little bit, but it's kind of coming back."
The Giants also recalled first baseman Lance Niekro from Triple-A Fresno.

Barry Bonds said Tuesday he hasn't heard yet from former Sen. George Mitchell in his independent investigation of steroids in baseball.
Mitchell was appointed in March by commissioner Bud Selig to head the league's investigation into steroids. He has already contacted some members of the Giants' coaching staff.
Bonds, who has always denied using performance-enhancing drugs, said he is determined to stay upbeat despite his decreased production this season, a sore, tired body, and his off-the-field issues.
"I'm doing good, ain't I? I'm going to be a positive person no matter what," Bonds said. "As long as my health is good and my family's happy, I'm going to be happy."
