season but less than 24 hours after getting swept, out of play off by cleveland indians the team is shore of one thing already. they want john farrell back as their manager next year. >> so i just spoke to john when he walked out here john farrell will be his manager for 2017. dave dombrowski wasting no time addressing perhaps red sox biggest off season decision. committing to skipper for another year. >> john has done a fine job this year. i've been happy with with him myself. i think he has the respect of club house we played hard we got a good season we won divisional title. we communicate well with one another. the red sox president of baseball operations says addressing his manager's future now rather than later was at the top of his to do list. i think it's important that everybody knows he's our leader he going forward and he's very well respected and gives him clear mind he needs along with the staff to move forward.

cleared club house before decision came down. but they made it clear he's right guy for job. door's always open he gets here early stays late. you know he welcomes guys to come in to talk to them you know if they have a problem or whatever it is. he's all i know alcs manager coming up in the big leagues. just play for hard him that's all he asks of you just leave it all out there try best you can to help your team win. john farrell l dave dombrowski says he can't commit to picking farrell's option for 2018 without first discussing that with ownership. report live joe amorosino, seven news night team. all right joe, thank you. up next tonight hidden history. rules about what your child day care has to el tell you about problems you have aren't what you amight think why problems with their past could stay hidden. tonight hank investigates another chilly commuteforecast forest of day up next. they tried and tried.

afoot and light-hearted i take to the open road. healthy, free, the world before me, the long brown path before me leading wherever i choose. the east and the west are mine. the north and the south are mine.

child day care past problems but you had no idea? the stories are terrifying a parents are left in the dark. so how do you really know you can trust the people you want to keep your children safe. hank investigates these hidden histories. when roxanne tried to pick a day care for her the most important information of my life is the safety of my child. >> she'd seen the horrifying day care stories. in northboro under supervised child wanders out the door in bridgewater, allegations of child rape, in dorchester two-year-old falls off the roof and dies. roxanne figured checking inspection records of massachusetts daycares would be easy. but when she searched online for official inspection she found

i feel like i was complete willing in the dark. unlike new hampshire, connecticut and maine, massachusetts does not provide day care inspection records online. experts say these days of instant access parents look for day care history should not be hitting information road blocks. i think this is thering broken in system how broken a state early education instructs parents to call the eec regional licensing office for your area. >> so we did. and i'm hoping you can help ju reports maining inquiries about eight different daycares three times we were properly gip inspection history. great. one office informed wield need a subpoena to get information. that's wrong. four times just leaving you another message no one from the state ever returned our calls. >> i'm looking for information about a couple of daycares. when we as channel 7 asked for the reports from those four

wanted to know. no criminal background checks, child left alone, not enough adults, not enough supervision. when the parents are left in the dark, where does that leave the children? it could leave children at risk. does your child's day care have a hidden history? even if you try your best to find out, you may never know. >> there are people out there who are putting child's in programs aren't good. and this information could be lifesaving. >> when inspection reports aren't online now. they would only say federal law requires they start posting by november 2017. but even when that begins, past records will not be included. so some daycares will still have hidden histories. in newsroom i'm hank phillippi ryan. >> and we are following more news here tonight impressive civil engineering crews in arkansas loaded tons of explosive to demolish this

still sure why the explosion didn't trigger a controlled collapse. so they decided to use cable and a barring to tear down that bridge. instead and 5 hours later bridge finally came tumbling down. took lot power explosion the no enough yank right down. almost 100 years old i guess they this make things like they used to how is it going to fill in morning chilly tomorrow morning a mainly quiet pattern sunshine again tomorrow. thursday lone day we talk about couple isolated showers. but subpoenaed. which is unfortunate. we still need rain nguyen you're still in that drought. right now city a 51. norwood a 37. worcester 48. clouds there steam streaming in from new york and pennsylvania. they don't have any rain drops. but it's just enough of a layer of cloudiness like a blanket if you will. just pull blanket over and stay warm at night. that's what will happen tonight. not quite a cold somewhat chilly i mean this morning we were down in 20s and 30s. tomorrow tomorrow morning

7:00 a.m. boston around 49. provincetown 50. norwood wassics two. tomorrow morning 35. bedford a 37. certainly, jackets and sweaters a great idea early tomorrow morning like today once sun goes to work nice one temperatures between 64 and 68. sea breeze will get going coastal location the city, south shore lower 60s. which is pretty close to normal lakeville at 68. north of town drakut 68. into worcester hills mostly sunny. jaffry at 67. fitchburg at 68. and out on to cape islands, l and mashpee at 62. >> now on to thursday. that's day that's our lone weather day we have clouds. and there maybe a little bit of drizzle early in day. and then i think a slightly higher chance of a couple of showers thursday afternoon and thursday evening. but again evening this is just going to be a few showers. a cool front does race across the northeast. we had that happen on sunday. but that cool front tapped into moisture from matthew no hurricane to tap into this time

perhaps a tenth of an inch for some of. but i think a lot of couple sprinkle pockets of drizzle and mist early in day thursday and then thursday evening just aslight chance of a shower. seven on 7 forecast. it's a simple story, lots of sunshine for friday, saturday and sunday. a bit cool again friday and saturday morning even into sunday more than by sunday afternoon temperatures bounce into the mid 60s. have a great night. >> anybody recognize dorchester native court knew? she won the battle round. got chance to speak with courtney last week she says support from family and friends is a big deal to her. >> another reason why i came on

like look it's not in vein. it's a victory for them its a victory for my city and you know, what boston strong. we're proud people. and it's just, it's awesome. good for her. 36 years old she waited until her son grew up to get back into what she really loves for herself and she will be

so i just spoke to john when he walked out here and john farrell will be our manager for 2017. everybody welcome back they did a very fine job for us and i just talked to him when he walked out this door dave dombrowski opening his end of year news conference announce biggest decision this off season standing by committing to bring john farrell back for fifth season deciding team's 93 wins out weighed three straight play off losses to and season farrell leading red sox to al east title this year but his team hit a skid at the worst time losing eight of their final nine games including that sweep by indians. farrell has his share of critic can constantly questioning his end game decisions but dombrowski is not one of them. >> i do not feel end game

manager. i think it's important, but there's other things that i think are probably more important. to me the most important thing for a manager is that their club plays up to their capabilities day in and day out. which means that they're communicating with their players and getting everything that they can. and that means their club is playing hard. david ortiz will be remembered a most clutch hitter in red sox history after watching him say to find way to replace his production in middle of their line up. it won't be easy. but ortiz believes the future is bright for the red sox. >> and i know this organization dave dombrowski and rest of the squad going to get the pieces to be able to compete and do better on this stage. i don't i think you ever replace david ortiz with what he brings tune organization to a community we will do a best i object to
