welcome back to oracle. inside game 7, warriors and the cavs, golden state leading at halftime. we'll start with golf. dustin johnson has got a bizarre record at the majors. last year for instance, three jacked 18 to lose the u.s. open. in 2010 he loses the pga championship by a rules violation. so more controversy today at oakmont. you know that golf course, the country club that has the pennsylvania turnpike running right through it. dustin johnson finished the third round four strokes down to shane lowry.
6:22 pm
at the turn they were tied. birdie on 9 to pull even with lowry. while johnson was gaining shots, lowry was dropping them. irishman dropped out of the bunk. he'd bogey and fall one shot back of pga. johnson had a two-stroke lead when a rules official approached him on the 12th tee to tell him he accidentally caused his ball to move back on the fifth green. that's a one shot penalty to be determined after the round. similar thing happened yesterday to shane lowry. lowry on 15 gives johnson the two-shot lead. penalty shot would not make a difference. johnson on 16 has his 10-footer to get up and down to save par. catches right edge and drops. four under for the championship. a three-shot lead on 18. in the fairway, his approach to the green. tapped in for a birdie and a 4-stroke lead. this is a remarkable win considering his past major disappointments and then the possibility of the stroke

6:24 pm
tied for first place with the dodgers. well, eight weeks later the giants have a six-game lead over the bad guys. tampa's mascot showing off his moves. jake peavey ran in to trouble in the first one out. runners on the corners. one already in. he popped one to shallow right. look at joe panik, making it over the shoulder cap to keep the runner at 3rd base. peavey strikes out corey dickerson to end the inning. he allowed one run in six innings and matched his season high with eight strikeouts. top of the fourth, giants down 1-0. brandon belt crushes the solo shot over the bleachers in right field. 8th inning, joe panik up with a chance to drive in the go-ahead run for the second day in a row and he delivers. gregor blanco scores part of a four-run inning. they beat the rays 5-1. that's their eighth straight win. i think we can say the reports of jake peavey's demise were
6:25 pm
indeed premature. last month he had an earned run average over 8. the worst in the majors. in his last five, peavey is 2-1 with a 1.76 earned run average. as showing support for the warriors wearing strength in numbers shirts during batting practice. albert pujols hit a screamer down the line. ball boy can't make the leaping grab. fortunately the fan in the front row brings his glove and makes the no-look catch. as defense wasn't too shabby either. max muncie showing off his wheels as he races to make the diving grab. not bad for a guy making just his fifth career start in the outfield. top of the 5th, carlos perez hammers eric sircamp's fastball to give l.a. the 2-0 lead. that's the third homer of the year for per ess who came in to the game batting .185. the two-run was plenty for jered weaver. weaver tosses a three-hit shutout as the angels win 2-0.
