>> it's a solo homer way gets off great start. lead one. nothing. let's go to the bottom of the 3rd guess, too little way junlor again. what a season this guy is having. it's 2, one giant wave has 12 home runs in just a 148 at that. he is definitely answered the call when they went to him. >> yeah, was really great today. nice outing also for alex wood. he only gave up a run on 5 and a 3rd innings and struck out 8, including this frees job in the 5th. but shortly after he left the game. the giants in a bases loaded jam. but jay jackson induces kevin newman to hit into the 4, 6, 3, double play to end the inning giants clinging to a 2 to one lead. >> it was a tight game until the sick san francisco score 3 times that started with this wilmer flores solo home run woolmer had that amazing home

run in la a couple nights ago that his club of the season. the giant utility player just playing. well that curt casali write-off of pitch flares. it shallow shallow left field. that's an rbi single san francisco in control. they're up 5 to one. and guess what, they go on to win 6 to one. those pesky dodgers come to town for 3 games starting on tuesday. >> san francisco. san francisco is now up 2 games in the nl west gabe kepler said he liked the bounce-back performance, but he also thinks they can play better. >> comfortable with with the way we executed today and certainly lamont's wings lead the way and a strong pitching performance from what he did great job by both but i think there's there's more to it. we're going have a good off day. we're going to care for the dodgers will have more specific thoughts on that series. obviously when we come

back on tuesday anytime you you know, you lose one or 2 in a you know. >> i'm so has been around a while. you know, i i know that means to, you know. stop. that's good. you know, once they started winning streak. and so, you know, part of me put that you know, on my shoulders and wants to go out there and do that for these guys. but, you know a lot of bizarre bizarre team. you know i mean. i guess that's our macho this i'm just trying to. >> be consistent with putting the ball hard and play as public come. but it definitely not going to china. china. think that's key for me. but just try to be consistent, be a tough out, not give at-bats during the suppose the spring. and it's a conical. >> he's living up to all that impressive. when you look at how injured the giants in the season. you lose evan longoria brandon crawford, now buster posey for stretch. brandon belt. and these young guys really stepping up. they are you know, lamont wade junior this. a 148 at-bats to have 12 home runs. and you know, not

only has he played well, he's come up with timely hits. we saw the last series against the dodgers that final game. he got that big hit that finally put them ahead in the top of the 9th inning today. 2 home runs. it's just the the giant utility players have just been awesome. this season. i think i'm in the market for lamont wade. you junior that view. good one. i mean, when he's the guy who i would probably do they come up. and like we said, it's been incredible to see all the new faces. no one more so than the guy behind us. lamonte wade junior in single-handedly has saved them so many times this season he kept them from getting swept today, which by the way, was kind of an acceptable to slit down against the pirates, losing 2 of 3. yeah to them. but first career game today with multiple home runs. so hats off to lamonte wade junior pretty good stuff from him. and so with their 6237 record.

the giants are still atop the league standings but the nationally west race is a very tight one early. >> 2 games ahead of the dodgers. so this series coming up on tuesday is a big one. the padres. they're in 35 and a half games back in the rockies. and backs, of course, bringing up the rear there. pretty much of it at this >> best division in baseball. you know. kudos to the padres and the dodgers in. hopefully giants can hold them off. but we're going to learn more about them. they have the dodgers and then even after the dodgers, they have a 3 game set with astro's. it's going to be tough. it's going to all right. let's check in on the a's needing a win today to split the series with the mariners. they're up in seattle. oakland won the first game in the series on thursday then lost tough one-run games. >> the next 2 days. so some a's fans. >> and they made an appearance in seattle at safeco part home, right. all right. top of the 3rd not olson. he's been on fire since the all-star break any continues. the trend here with a solo shot that was

his 27th of the season and its port since the all-star break that made it 2. nothing a's that the mariners surged ahead in the bottom of the frame. kyle seager ripping one to right field off cole irvin. that's a base hit. 2 runs with scores. now it's a 2 to tight. >> all right. the next batter luis torrens brown's another single into left field. another run scores. the mariners now lead 3 to 2. you hate to see it is. i like those hats and ever seen that code blue for them next. batter true morffi bloops one into shallow center. ramon looks like he's going to get comes out and out with it. but you can't make the play the ball. just pops out a run scores. it's 42 get this all 7 of seattle's hits were singles of that. so you got to do it sometimes right. top of the 7th, the a's make their charge behind this. >> so low. >> and that's right. pinch hitter. seth brown coming

through. so oakland closes the gap to a run. it's now 4, 3, in the 9th, matt chapman. on first and mitch moreland at the plate. he's going to line. one to left its chairman is on his horse and headed to 3rd. but jake power guns him down and the a's would challenge the call. it was upheld and that pretty much killed any potential rally for oakland. so the a's lose 43 to drop the last 3 games of this four-game series and all 3 of those games by just one run that really hurts the gap between oakland and seattle for 3rd in the nl west narrows to just a game and a half of them, but they lead the division for much of the 1st half of the season after the game, though, bob melvin said no time to panic. >> it means that we came up short run every game and we've got to regroup been there's a lot a lot more baseball left to be played. so. you know, give them credit. they got whether it's a big play,

whether hit where there is a big out by the pitching staff. they were. they're a little better then asked a series, but there's a lot more baseball left play. you know, i. really to have about 39 just where it was just a person was our on. >> you know, they did. they got one. so far, just a. she better with 2 strikes. the 2 strikes. 2 you know, it's one thing it up for a couple. but there's couple different about back on. just to make a good recall. the cost to me. >> areas. yeah, i get what they're trying to say. you still have the majority of the 2nd half left, right. so you don't want to panic, but at the same time. here in the division with the astro's. now the mariners. you can't let these things happen. so thank goodness for metals. and right. in this it just feels like a division race where one

stands astro's took the lead in the division is like a's have enough to catch them. that i'm actually scared the same thing with the giants in the dodgers. yeah, they ultimately overtake the giants it is interesting that you've got an all-star right. is having an incredible season. you don't want to let them down. this pretty much due to loan bright spot this season. has his 27th home run of the year and you've got the 4th most in the majors. so. he is definitely holding them up and check out the standings in the american league west. the a's have now fallen 5 and a half games behind houston like kate said that's going to be hard to make up and now they just only a game and a half ahead of the mariners for second place in likely the eventual wild card spot. so we'll just have to see this play out. all right. fingers crossed that they can pick it >> much more to come on sports night live tonight, olympic games in full swing and the

struggles continue for team usa men's hoops. we'll show you what happens. >> all right. we will also check in on our baseball insider alan styles. we talked trade deadline. we talk howard terminal. we talk having and what's going on with him. we'll have it all after the break. hang tight

exhibition games didn't go so well for team usa men's hoops. but the actual olympic games are off to a very good start either. jason. yeah, you know, is. >> it's crazy. in their whole world away from us and everything is everything team usa was shaky during exhibition play in las vegas and it translated to group play us a loss to france today 83 to 76 evan fournier, the boston celtic finished with 28 points for team france. meanwhile, rudy gobare, the reigning nba defensive player of the year. he had 14 9 get this case. drew holiday who just a couple days ago was drunk at the nba finals championship parade. he led team usa with 18 it they play iran next. also in their group is czech republic. you would have to imagine that they have to win both of those games in also these games matter by they also decided by points differential. if there's any ties. so it's important that

they beat iran, they blow them out so they can get ahead and that point differential category. >> yeah. all right. lots of swimming medal races today as well. the first final of the game's first and france own katie ledecky, the 400 meter freestyle ledecky won gold in this event 5 years ago in rio and she got an early lead in her race today. but it was not a repeat like we're hoping for australian ari on took gold her time was the second fastest of all time. tennis has emerged as a big competitor for ledecky since rio. but deck he will still swim in 4 other events. the 200 free 800 p 1500 free and the 4 by 200 relay silver today. not a bad consolation prize. all right. things got off to a somewhat rocky start for the u.s. women's gymnastics team in tokyo as well. a surprise in today's qualifier as the defending gold medalist finished second to the russian olympic committee team a series of small mistakes on various events really added up as team usa finished a
