paddleboarders. they were out paddling last friday. they were going from fort point to ocean beach when they came across a pair of whales. at one point, one of the whales actually splashed one of the men. they said it was a rare, and needless to say, exciting moment. well the a's win, and continue their winning ways. the giants win, but the news isn't all that good for the giants. >> victory, but the cost could be steep. the giants do win, could lose however two valuable pitchers. they're calling matt cain's hamstring injury mild. brandon crawford, with nobody on. helps the giants build a 5-0 lead. but the rockies, in the 8th inning, threatening. bases loaded, nobody out. this is what a first place team does to get out of trouble. just a great double play.

turned it beautifully. all of a sudden, the threat is no longer there. but watch santiago garcia battling in the top of the 9th. the pitcher trips over the bag, and apparently he is severely, maybe even torn his hamstring. he was not able to leave the field under his own power. he and cain will both have mri's done tomorrow, so we'll evaluate it tomorrow. so the giants do win the game, but at what cost? making the most with the very least, the a's in that no matter what, you just can't beat us mode. only one hit tonight. they still get over on tampa, six consecutive wins on the road. bases loaded, sean rodriguez throws it away, and the two runs come in for the a's. and their only hit of the night. first time in franchise history, they win with just one hit. courtesy of brandon moss.

get a look at it. because it's their only one of the night. solo shot for the distance. his 10th of the year, 3-2 lead, and the a's also able to escape disaster, this is a beauty, tampa loading the bases also in the 8th. a beautiful play by moss. a's just keep on rolling. you don't exactly have to be carnac the magnificent to know we are headed for another san antonio/miami nba final. okc ready to check out once they lost sergio baca to injury. get out. not a game. tony parker with 2 of his 22. then in the 3rd quarter, they really begin to put it away. how about danny green? nailing 7 of 10 threes. lights out shooting. lights out for okc. they're down 2-0, headed back to oklahoma. not that there will be any

shortage of interest when the world cup time rolls around in about a month or so, but a bit of local angle to keep an eye on. a couple of san jose quakes to keep an eye on. currently 30 players working out in stanford in preparation for the cup. quakes clarence goodson very much alive. and rondo loves tangling with the best of the best. >> you just have to step up your game, and i feel like i can do that as well. especially when you're playing with great players, it just raises the level of everyone. you just play your best and hope that you can make a difference and influence the team. things are on the up tick for the golden state warriors. the sports business journal has named golden state sports team
