snow, and we've got a five day that looks like something you would see in arizona or something. >> 68 degrees out at pacifica tomorrow. >> gorgeious out there. >> that's incredible. >> looks nice for the weekend too. the chinese new years parade saturday night. >> saturday night is going to be unbelievable out there. mark's here now. warriors a great night for the warriors, and a good win at home. >> yeah, they're happy to be home. digging it. even though it's inside. a rough road trip. had the warriors lost tonight, it might have qualified as their first slump of the year. they didn't lose. back home, 25-2. much improved milwaukee. coach kid has them playing a much better brand of basketball this year. milwaukee however turned the ball over 23 times tonight. bounces to clay thompson. the warriors are well on their way. watch this play, though.

in bounds for harrison barnes, ability, strength, and just pure athleticism. we just see it in flashes from this guy. barnes, some day he's going to put it all together. curry from way out. 19 points for him. most in the 4th quarter. happy 25th birthday for draymond green. he steels it -- steals it, he slams it it. 102-93. back home and happy to be here. here's the truth. the a's hammer the giants for the second straight day in the cactus league. but the giants are the ones who sent us the highlights today. memo to a's organization. send us the highlights, we will show them. you're going to think the giants win this game by the highlights. buster posey gets himself a to run double. the a's were ahead 4-0 at the

time. here's a nice play for the giants on defense. scoreless inning, but again, oakland wins, 9-2. although you'd never know from those highlights. but it is just spring training for everybody. when is a $4 million pay cut really not all that bad? tell you about that. and the man who just refuses to go away. a-rod's spring debut. he tries to show there's still a little life in that bat. sports part 2 next.

who wants to try a new burger? that's good! it's really good.

very juicy. that's melted garlic herb butter. it's original. i like soft buns. i would buy this. this is amazing! could this be from jack in the box? definitely not jack in the box no. i'm not a big fan of jack in the box burgers and... this is really good! thanks... i guess. that is my new buttery jack with garlic herb butter melted right on. you can go classic or bacon & swiss will they melt in your mouth? you butter believe it.

quite possibly one of the most unpopular players in the history of baseball, but give a- rod credit. he's trying to go out on his own terms, and his terms are, i'm going to get my money. after missing all of last season with a drug suspension, he makes his spring debut today. >> the main question is, can he still play? >> a base hit. first at bat, he wound up 1 for 2. came out of the game, and still got a little swing in his bat for the most part. >> i mean, it was pretty exciting. pretty emotional to be honest with you. i'm just happy i put the ball in play. then it was a base hit to boot. it's definitely a good start.

it's really a dream come true to be back in pinstripes. it's going to be an awesome challenge, but i like all the talent that we have in our clubhouse. >> maybe the first time in history a guy gets a $4 million pay cut, and is not unhappy about it. peyton manning goes from 19 to $15 million. he's going to play for the broncos. >> 39 years old. >> at least he'd better not be unhappy about that pay cut. thank you. >> thank you for joining us tonight. our coverage continues at ktvu.com. >> if you missed any part of this broadcast, you can always catch the rebroadcast, starting momentarily on tv36.
