>> now abc 7 sports with larry beil. larry: good evening. one of the giants top priority this season was improving their defense. it has been better, but not so much today, as minnesota going for this week of the twins. check out the barehanded catch from a fan right here actually airheaded catches in this game. first a giant highlight that is positive. we are tied at 1-1. now 3-1 twins in the anthony desclafani, 21, two outs, matt tueller, routine, right wisely runs. turning into a disaster here. willie castro breaks for home. that is way wide. another run scores. yikes!

now it is 5-1. pitch. giants end up falling 7-1. they drop again below 500 at 24 and 25. latest twist of the a's stadiums of the drops today when they released a weird joint statement claiming they reached a tentative agreement to actually move to las vegas, moving the team. the statement had a lot of quotes but lacks substance. missing were the terms of the deal, how much of this deal might cost, or even the language of a bill that would need to be voted on by the state assembly. abc 7 sports anchor casey pratt have been following this from the jump and explained issues on our 5:30 p.m. streaming show. chris: everybody put out these big statements make them of the governor, the a's, legislatures,

and they did not put out any information. what came out of the statement was all these get grand pronouncements. what was in the statement were these details, no facts. where the quotes in the statement was from clark county, known in the county even wanted to put their name on it, so they just said clark county. how can an entire county speak? so what we saw, and a lot of cloaks but no actual -- quotes but no actual bill, no language, no numbers, no traffic study, infrastructure study, a parking study. there are so many questions that need to be answered yet about whether or not a deal can pan out and las vegas to do what we need to see is an actual bill, and that has to come soon, because the legislative session closes june 1. larry: maybe there's just a guy named clark. i don't know what they are doing over there. 49ers continue ota's. trey lance will get a chance to show the work he put in in the off-season last year following the ankle injury and surgery,
6:56 pm
but he was working out with two-time super bowl champion patrick mahomes and mahomes' trainer. >> i was able to focus on the right things, just having a better idea, again, even better than in year three of what is expected of me, how to run the office, being able to watch brock, for me, being able to be around pat was awesome coming to pick his brain, learn about what type of guy he is, how he spends his free time in the off-season, and more about his in season schedule as well. larry: grizzlies star ja morant has been in the news for all the wrong reasons. "love you mom, pops, baby girl, bye." police did a wellness check. his message may have and to indicate he is getting all social media, but it scared everybody today with that post, so hopefully he is ok.

thank you, johnny gilbert. and welcome, everyone, to "jeopardy!" we learned during our interviews yesterday that lynn di vito is a recent two-time cornhole champion. what we didn't realize in that moment is that she was soon to become a one-day "jeopardy!" champion, defeating the seemingly unbeatable nine-game winner ben chan in a come-from-behind victory. i'm not sure which of lynn's accomplishments stacks up the highest at this point, but we are happy to welcome her back along with our new challengers-- ed and joyce. good luck as we head into the jeopardy! round with these categories... you'll remove c-o-n from the front of a word to get the response. and... lynn, as our returning champ, you select first. let's go with con must go, $400.
