defense of mountain lions amid increased sights in south bay and also in the peninsula. last night san jose parents asked them to gauge the real threat of mountain lions roaming their neighborhoods. here's what officials told them. you have a significantly higher chance of being struck by lightning than being attacked about a mountain lien in urban area. they're not looking to relocate the lion but to help people not attract them. that means not leaving food out for deer because the feed ultimately attracts mountain lions. the most recent mountain lion sighting needs to be put into perspective. >> the video of the mountain lion on top of the car is misleading because that house is literally built into the hillside. the lion was -- could almost jump out of its natural habitat on to the car. >> since 1986, there have only been 15 mountain lion attacks in the entire state of california. of those 15 attacks, 6 were fatal but those attacks occurred in state or county parks, or wilderness areas not urban

areas. fish and while life say the recent attack on a 6-year-old boy was a fluke. that boy attacked by a 65-pound juvenile mountain lion last month while walking near the winery. officials say the lion was probably startled while sleeping because attacks like that are extremely rare, as we just cited. the mountain lion later tracked and killed after it became aggressive. the boy was treated for cuts and scratches but is okay. an environmental group will announce plans to sue the city of san francisco over toxic turf installed on numerous soccer fields. the coalition to protect golden gate park is taking legal action against the recreation and park department and the city field foundation. it claims the city installed turf that contains toxic crumbs, made from ground-up tires. those are blown up all over the field, as players run and fall, ingested by children and players. the coalition worries the crumbs could cause health problems

most orange and black we saw was from the concessionaires, odd choice of colors for those employees who work for royals. from my vantage point along the third baseline i counted four giants fans in the stadium. they're not hard to spot. someone else wearing a stadium counted 6 oh it does not include staff. no surprise, considering the cost, the travel, hotel, hundreds of dollars more for the tickets. but for few who came, it was worth the trip. >> it's over. just ask these fans. er. >> best of seven, not best of one. >> our best pitcher. this game i knew he'd whip, but it's going 6 of 7. good for us. >> they'll be sad when we take it in five, honey.
