over. in a san francisco courtroom, he said the city's handling of a sex accuse scandal shows "we're still not finished after 14 years of reform thing department." and "it's clear that these alegations could not have been fully investigated but for the court's intervention." >> the court is now going to issue an order directing the department to do something. given the period of time we've been involved in this case, it seems to me if that's not done, that becomes the basis for a contempt of court. >> reporter: the hearing comes after an independent report found then the oakland chief and top city officials were inept in their handling of a sex scandal involving an underage teenager. >> the judge has not made a ruling, but he will make a ruling in a couple of days. and from there, we'll have a clear direction about how opd will become the best agency that

i'm excited for it. it's a big deal. there's a lot going on. but i like to sit back and soak this in, as well. >> i enjoy facing the best. it's what you look for. i mean, to get a chance obviously in the all-star game to face the best hitter right now in the game potentially, that's what you look for. so it will be fun. >> clayton kershaw is not starting, but arguably the best pitcher on the planet. had an interesting take on who is the face of major league baseball now that derek jeter is retired. his choice, buster posey. here's his rational for choosing a division rival. >> if you could pick anybody, it would be buster posey. he's won a world series everything right on and off the field. probably the best talent in the game, but

>> the all-star game break. in last place, 27 games out of first place, here's how some of the giants say they will spend their break. >> just stick around the area with my wife, maybe go up to napa. we'll see. but nothing crazy. we've done a lot of travel lately. >> probably just hang out. do some things in the city i haven't had time to do, relax a little bit, probably play catch one or two days. >> just try to eat good food. work out, get the body ready to charge into the second half. >> warriors and cavs have the grudge match going. the clash continues, summer league in vegas, not the same sizzle. no lebron or k.d. here's macaw, starting the scoring with a three. nice ball movement. it's a triple.

jabari brown used to be a d-leaguer, now a g-leaguer. he hits the jumper. it's macaw going to the glass. the warriors trail 50-33 at the half. he whacks his head on the door jam. that's fun, happens all the time to me. first set, serving and nadal can't handle it. mueller takes the first set. nadal overcomes the deficit. look at the beautiful crosscourt winner. in the fifth, tied at ten games apiece. 14-13, mueller. nadal's serve, and he can't hand it will shot. so match point for mueller. mueller ends up winning a five-set, four-hour, 48 minute upset.

15-13 in the fifth set, as nadal hits long there. unbelievable match. >> fantastic. >> thanks, larry. >> that is this edition of "abc7 news." appreciate your time. i'm dan ashley. >> and i'm kristen sze. for everyone there -- >> look sharp, larry. >> he always does. thanks for joining us. >> see you again at 9:00 and 11:00. ♪ [vo] your summer moment awaits you now that the summer of audi sales event is here. audi will cover your first month's lease payment on select models during the summer of audi sales event.
