that's a really difficult undertaking and it's not going to you know, be seamless, smooth . there are going to be bumps along the road. >> and if the a's stay at the coliseum and in the market for the next four years, the team would continue to keep its broadcasting rights deal worth roughly $70 million a year. the new professional baseball team in oakland has a home for the upcoming season. >> the oakland ballers say they have chosen raymond park in west oakland as their home field. they'll play 48 home games at the park, starting with the inaugural home game on june 4th. the oakland ballers say they have a $1.6 million plan funded through private investments, to make upgrades to the ballpark park. the local community will have access to the field on the other 372 nights. when the team will not be playing. >> teacher in san jose was known for her devotion to her students and also her love of shoes. actually collecting quite the collection over the years. yes she though died suddenly last year and now her family is honoring her name in a unique

year. >> gina died suddenly in a car accident. but her family knew they wanted to honor her memory. >> we were just trying to figure out, you know, um, the shoes and the amount of shoes and how to make her proud. >> shoe palace. gina s favorite store, stepped in with an idea they could auction off all those shoes to raise money for a scholarship. it was tragic that what happened to her. >> and i just felt like at least her legacy can still live on. we have a part in that. i feel like that's what we're trying to do here. >> there are more than 200 pairs. the family rented a u-haul to deliver them to shoe palace. jason marks, a well-known shoe cleaning company, is getting them back to mint condition. one shoe that won't be auctioned. gina's personal pair of her namesake sneaker using different products , maintaining them whatever we need to do to bring them back to life as much as we can. the family decided the scholarship should be for gina's alma mater, san jose state. they say the auction being about sneakers and education just seems right. >> she would love to see that

and she would love to help students better their lives with the scholarship. >> that's in her name. >> the online auction will be done through the charitybuzz site. the family and shoe palace hope to raise at least $50,000 to fund the san jose state scholarship in perpetuity. the auction should be live in early march in morgan hill and ruben ktvu fox two news. >> all righty. teed up for the weekend. now tomorrow's friday. i hope you've got a short day planned. the weather looks not too bad for tomorrow. i mean, as you know, the weekend is going to be wet, especially on saturday. i think sunday is your best day in terms of the morning. i think you'll get some stuff done. the systems are stacked up out there. we've got a couple of them lined up out in the pacific, el nino year, atmospheric river, the whole bit, and it's setting up pretty nicely. so saturday right now, friday late night into saturday looks like our best bet for rain . here is the water vapor loop or the precipitable water. this just shows you this atmospheric

river. you can clearly pick it out. so here it comes. here we are friday morning. here we are in the about 1 a.m. so that's late friday night early saturday morning. and you see it kind of sweeps on through pretty quickly in a few hours. so that saturday event is going to lose its moisture. tap to some extent. so that's why we're expecting good amount of rain but not ridiculous amounts of rain. and then it drips south into southern california. the main plume. but then look to the north again. see that area pick up right there right over the bay area. that's our sunday system that lingers into monday as some of that moisture gets pulled in on monday morning, early. so i know it's a lot, but it just gives you an idea where the moisture is. and it looks like the atmospheric rivers kind of break off for a little while. so with that in mind, over the course of 3 or 4 days, we're going to get this much rain, which is super manageable considering we've got these breaks. it's just going to be getting used to driving in the rain. getting to mountain travel will be sketchy. i think this will be again, a pretty aggressive move. marin storm in on the coast. of course not

tomorrow, but on saturday and sunday the swell comes up. as you would expect. so 15 to 20ft. easy it's just going to be big and gnarly and you just don't want anything to do with the water. the ocean, the saturday or sunday. and these were the highs from today. pretty warm. look at how warm it was. san jose was 67 degrees, so outside we go. we've got clear skies are partly cloudy skies right now. it'll be cloudy most of the day. tomorrow we'll call it partly cloudy, partly sunny. here's the satellite loop showing what's happening now. there's the cloud . it keeps us warm overnight. that's why temperatures are trending a little bit. well, about where they were a little cooler, maybe, but they keep us warm. they'll keep us above freezing these clouds. and so that's tomorrow morning's forecast. here's the model forecast for friday afternoon. and then there you go. friday late night into early saturday morning. and this is the system of concern. and there it is 1:00 on saturday day. and then it pushes through and then get that break on sunday. most of sunday. and then sunday afternoon it gets going again as you see

right here if we get going. so yeah it's good stuff. here's a five day forecast coming up right after this temperature map. and you'll see that we've got breaks then then rain then break, then rain then break. and that's how you want to do it. i'll see you back here at 11. >> all right bill thank you. the warriors in utah tonight for the final game before the all star break. and klay thompson coming off the bench. jason appelbaum with the highlights next in sports. >> then on the 11:00 news a massive explosion in southern california sends some fire fighters to the hospital. we'll have reaction from nearby residents after a gas tank erupted

the jazz only down by three. he finished with 35. then with two seconds left, sexton a chance to tie it. no, that would have forced overtime, but the warriors hang on. won 40 to 137 and kerr, the fifth fastest coach to reach 500. regular season wins, and the warriors head into the break in 10th place in the west 27 and 26. their record saint mary's gaels going for their 13th straight win. no problem with pepperdine tonight in moraga and a special night for former gaels center joe landale, who becomes the fourth saint mary's player and third from australia to have his number retired seconds before the first half ends. look at this shot. alex ducas from half court. you betcha. he had a big night. aidan mahinmi, mahaney made the three pointer here and the 18th ranked gaels. they win big. and i mean big. 103 to 59

leadoff for the giants. >> to me, it was it's glaring how quickly it seems like he's fit in and how comfortable he's been. he's a good player, so i mean, you watch batting practice and defensive drills and so forth. and you know, we've got a pretty good handle on all that. >> how about the sharkies? they are in calgary tonight taking on the flames. third period. sharks up 3 to 2 flips zadina big night for him. he works the nice give and go with nico sturm and zadina scores to make it four two sharks. he had a couple of goals two assist. sharks win 6 to 3, their 15th win of the season. that's one more than the chicago blackhawks, who have the worst record in the league, and tiger woods. he dealt with back spasms in his first pga event since the masters last april, but he did make it through the opening round of the genesis invitational at the riviera country club in pacific palisades. woods had his moments five birdies on the day. watch him curl this one in on the
