pollution and sediment runoff. mark is here with sports. it's been a rough season for the warriors, but not tonight. >> yeah, the road trip started last night, you figured, boy after one game like that, they're leaking oil already. but nowhere to go but up. and that's just what they did. back at it in atlanta tonight. probably good they didn't have time to dwell on it. you're taking a look at dominic mcgwire. didn't score a single point, but grabbed 15 rebounds. the warriors led by 10 at halftime. getting a nice contribution again. steals it, and turns it quickly into two. he had 12 tonight. the frontcourt for the warriors. the hawks were down at half. atlanta has things all tied up under 1:00 left. david lee, the always tenacious offense and defense. his usual, a lead that they

would keep. atlanta's last gasp effort ends as another rebound for mcgwire and an 85-82 win on the road no less. until further notice, his every move to be scrutinized. that is jeremy lin. he takes a tough forearm to the nose. he's all right, it is not broken a la kobe. you will see it didn't affect him all that much. takes it right to the rack. reverse lay-up. the knicks win another one easily. this time over cleveland. women's hoop. just no beating stanford when they play at home. the cardinal rolling to a 79th consecutive home victory. of course baseball purists will call it greed, progressives will say it's great for the game. more teams in the playoffs. not official yet, but every indication major league

baseball plans to expand its playoff format to two more teams. the two wild card teams would meet in a one game do or die showdown. a cataclasmic event. as mike piazza is checking it out. team u.s.a. beating italy for the first time in 78 years of play together. clint dempsey for the game's only goal. 1-0. and the u.s.a. showing they can compete with the big boys. looking pretty good. baseball fans a little more for that jonesing for cactus league action. it all starts saturday. tim lincecum will start. probably pitch an inning, and he will start the regular season as well for the giants. i'm wondering if they'll start

calling him jeremy lincecum. just a thought. that came to me then. thank you. >> çr
