giants infielder, wilmer flores at bat. is that a check swing? what do you guys think? the first base umpire calls it a strike, some men think the disappointing end for the giants. i spoke to local baseball coach who played for the university of san francisco and he was drafted to play for the chicago white sox. here's his take on the controversial call and someone coming another way. >> obviously when you look that replay, it wasn't even that close and that should have been -- it shouldn't have been a swing. >> those guys are experienced. and i think emotion, for a lot of us is we wanted a different outcome. but at the end of the day, we're in the best position to make the call. i think it was the right call. >> so, what does the mlb rule book say? it doesn't. it does not contain an official definition for a check swing. it defines a swing as an attempt to strike or offer at the ball. and rules experts say contrary to popular belief, a batter does not have to break his wrist or pass more than half the plate for it to be considered a full swing. bottom line is it's a ju

. >> reporter: wilmer flores gets the start at first base to nice.d .341 with homers against the dodgers this season. the giants opted to carry an extra bat. gabe kapler made it to the postseason twice as a player. tonight will be his first playoff game as a manager. the man he replaced had plenty of success in october, and bruce bochy cashed in on the regular season success. >> i did lose a bit to bruce bochy. i lost a dinner and nice bottle of bordeaux because we didn't win the division. it's his choice knowing him, it'll be some type of first growth. it won't be cheap. >> reporter: meanwhile, a few blocks up the road, the la lakers are in town, the other team from l.a. , at the chase center. steph curry knows that that game preseason, second fiddle tonight to this one. >> thanks for showing up today. i feel like a congregation leader in, like, monroe, north carolina, at a lazy 8:00 a.m. service on sunday. to make it $22 on the collection plate. >> reporter: jimmy garoppolo has been ruled out for sunday's game against arizona because of a calf inju

his single scores, wilmer flores and logan webb is 2 to nothing giants bottom of the 4th. it's 3 to one giants and flores comes through in a big way. this double makes it 5, one good guys. oh, baby. you can taste that champagne already. now, this may have been the play of the game. logan webb in the midst of pitching another gem hits his first career home run. it got to love it. and here's the final out. the giants when their 9th nl west division title. let's hear from the champs after the game. kind of point to. >> to a foreign said are. our players are always setting the tone they believe that they can go out and win every night. it doesn't mean that we're going to win every one of them. but the belief is there. and so, you know, our job is to kind of support that believe in vision. so doesn't really matter what i thought about how many ways we're in, how beginning of the season, what really matters is what these they believe you know, i mean, just so is all the hard work that we put in ever since spring came together as a group spring training. so is all the harbor and

the giants' wilmer flores was called out on a check swing third strike.at he did not swing. the dodgers won the game 2-1. up next, the atlanta braves in peoplest wrote, "i know you meawell, but i kindly ask that you not od or bad, it to politely let you know it's not helpful and doesn't feel good." the 37-year-old star of such movies as "super bad" and "the wolf of wall street" has been open in the past about his struggles with weight and body image. >>> oscar-winning actor jared leto called a seriously ill russian woman to wish her happy belated birthday. >> oh, my god. i can't believe -- oh, my god. >> leto called the woman at her home in moscow this week. she spent her 27th birthday on october 4th in a hospice. her brother told a charity organization that his sister's dream is to talk to leto. he called when she was back home, and she's kept a cardboard cutout of the star for more than thnew statue waseileew wax figut brittown oblackpool. it arrived on, what else, a horse-drawn carriage. the new figure of the 95-year-old monarch replaces one commission

but it sure looked like a check swing by wilmer flores in the bottom of the ninth inning. i used to be a little league ump, so we got to dust off the rule book here. when does a check swing cross into a strike? turns out major league baseball has no defined rules for a check swing. it only offers this definition for a swing. quote, an attempt to strike or offer at the ball. after that, it's basically up to the ump. the first base ump in this situation, grew up in the south bay. he explained to his credit after the call, quote, check swings are one of the hardest calls we have. i don't have the benefit of multiple camera angles when i'm watching it live. when it happened live, i thought he went, so that's why i called it a swing. here's what gabe kapler had to say following the game. >> it looked like he didn't go. i mean that was my take on it. i mean obviously you don't want a game to end that way. i know these guys worked really hard to make the right call, so it's super challenging on our end, especially right now. there's no need to, you know, be angry about that. i ju

3rd inning buster posey puts the giants on the board with a 2 run single and then the next any wilmer flores comes through with a double to make it hot. >> giants. then later in the buster posey again with a base hit up the middle that gave the giants a six-run lead. then in the 5th inning starting pitcher logan webb at the plate. he hits his first career home run. that makes it 9 to one san francisco goes on to win by a high of 11 to 4. here's some reaction from the players after the game. >> and the thing about 107 game. loss a little bit the last 10 days or so. least of the makes it all the more last into the season that was our goal and we knew was going to be talking is going to be dry. you know, if the dodgers that was are all going. and we've got >> all right. a giant will take on either the dodgers or the louis cardinals in the division series. well, here's the schedule because you got a lot to watch. it is a best of 5 series with game one on friday at oracle part game 2. is also be oracle park on saturday. >> game 3 is going to be next monday in either louis or los angeles. all righ

but it sure looked like a check swing by wilmer flores. that's what a lot of people are saying so the question is when does a check swing cross over into a strike? turns out, the mlb has no defined rules for a check swing. it only offers this decision for a swing. quote, an attempt to strike or offer at the ball. after that, it is basically up to the umpire to decide. first-base ump gabe morales explained his call after the game. he said, check swings are one of the hardest calls we have. i don't have the benefit of multiple am camera angles when i am watching it live. when it happened live, i thought he went so that's why i called it a swing. here's what gabe cap ler had to say. >> it looked like he didn't go. obviously, you don't want a game to end that way. i know these guys work really hard to -- to make the right call so it's superchallenging on our end. especially, right now, there's no need to, you know, be angry about that. i -- i just think it's -- it's just a disappointing way to end. >> tough pill to swallow, for sure. as for th

it ended with wilmer flores being punched out by that. first base umpire on a pretty obvious check.t there watching it. you had a pretty good angle on things. how did you see it? and how frustrating was it for you to have this game and on that call? well obviously it was frustrated and disciplining. i think i think actually was in the background of the shot of the camera shot, and i think my hand to my head or something, but you know it. look, i mean, there are thousands and thousands of calls during the season and there's you know, hundreds. dozens and hundreds of calls in any game, so i don't think it's right for us to for us to dwell on that, uh, as gabe said, look, it's very disappointing. but in the end, um have a lot of respect for the dodgers. uh it was last night was something that was pretty magical. i think a lot of folks that were in the ballpark kind of felt the spirit of. willie mays and sandy colfax and jackie robinson, willie maccabi. it was it was magical. it was incredible season. um i think the sting of last night's lost. uh well morph over time and maybe in the co

bottom of the ninth giants trailing 2- wilmer flores at bat with two sfriks runner first base. the question, is that a checked swing? what do you think? the first base umpire calls it a strike. cementing the win for the dodgers and the disappointing ends for the giants. i spoke to local baseball coach jonathan allen played for the university of san francisco and drafted to play for the chicago white sox. here is the take on the decubitus call a and a giants fan who saw it another way. >> i think more things should definitely be able to be reviewed for sure, especially a play like that, because it takes, what, ten seconds for them to look it up, talk to the guys in new york that are watching this game and get the right call instead of a wrong call. >> i do have to give it to the experts on the field and the fact that you can do replays and you can always like i said look at a case. but it's the spirit of what happens in the moment. win lose or draw, so let's acknowledge they had a great season and next year is another season, man. >> so what does the mlb rule book say? well it d

b, i singled with the dodgers to want ahead and then came the decisive moment. giants, player wilmer flores had the task of keeping the teams season alive against rainy world series champions. flores was called out by the empire. even though replace suggested, he didn't swing his bad call, met the dodgers, won the game and now face a series against the atlanta. oh hi, quality hitter at the plate that can climb back into that count. it's no guarantee of success at the end of the about i'm sure it's just a tough way to end up there. there's no need for especially right now there's no need to, you know, to be angry about that. i just think it's just a disappointing wait and there was a moment of hockey history for the seattle crackin, and the franchise is 1st ever season and will it's national hockey league kracken have secured their opening when it came again to natural predators for 3. the final score the team are on the road for now their big homecoming will be for a game against vancouver. and later this month, brazilian forward rafino produced a stunning performance on his full internatio

i single to put the dodgers to went ahead and then came the decisive moment, joined player wilmer flores had the task of keeping the team season alive against raining rolled serious champions or is was called out by the empire even though replace suggested didn't swing his batt call meant the dodgers won the game and now face a series against the atlanta blades, high quality heater at the plate that can climb back into that count. it's no guarantee of success at the end of the about. i just, it's just a tough way to end it up there. there's no need for especially right now there's no need to, you know, to be angry about that. i just think it's just a disappointing wait and i want to congratulate the giants on our tremendous season. i best reckon all of baseball and it was just great job every time we played those guys and just bring that rivalry back to life . finance. the antenna star ons gender has had another career. hi. she is set to become the 1st our player to break into the world's top tenant. the 27 year old has reached the indian wells semi finals beating as stony as and net con

crawford your mvp candidate rbi single to write but mookie bets look at this throw to third and wilmer floresout that ends the inning and the threat 6-2 after 7 top 8 dodgers catcher will smith takes zach littell deep on the first pitch la scores three in the 8th to seal the deal frustrating night for the giants and their fans dodgers win at 9-2 even in the series at one all game three monday in los angeles. it's tough to to really get a handle on. why we're not we're not scoring more runs in these games and something for us to keep thinking about. i mean it was still feeling good about her about ourselves. i mean the top 1 top 1 you know, it's got to go out there and get him. it's a good feeling. it's interesting how that the narrative change changes from from game to game and right now like you said, it's a three-game series. we have home field advantage and we've got max on the mountains. so i like where we're at. you know, i thought battles all night and really got a lot of momentum back in our dugout and i just you know again, there are tough team. they're never gonna go away just like w

they get wilmer flores to pop it up. giants seven game winning streak was over. >> there's something about the thoughts of giants players making laps around oracle park. that sounds better than the dodgers losing last night and clenching, right? >> i just wanted to end tonight. if it comes to that, i will come back out and forget. i will see what i need to see. >> he sums it up. giant fans had some adult sodas. clayton kershaw was placed on it 10 day dl after injuring his elbow. the dodgers were up 4-1 in the fourth inning. a two run homer to center field. dodgers beat the brewers, 8-3. bob melvin was not in a good mood last night. the oakland ace were down and then kyle tucker hits a homerun and they fall to the astros 10- 4. and now to the conference of champions. that would be the third ranked oregon ducks. the 49ers trey lance with a thriller. stanford tied the game on the final play of regulation. third and 11. the third touchdown pass of the game. it becomes touchdown or bus for oregon. fourth and eight. anthony br

autumn of the tents, wilmer flores pops out to center and the giants lose 3-2 in 10 innings. >> it isall, obviously, the group was disappointed after the game today feeling like we had some opportunities to win the game. but ultimately, the dodgers are also a good team and we have 106 wins and we are going into game 162 to try to decide the division. chris: opening the scoring against milwaukee. a.j. pollock will add a two run shot in the fourth. l.a. wins 8-3 so the giants need to win or have the dodgers lose on sunday to take the division. but it will be game 163 for the nl crown at oracle park on monday. cardinals taking on oregon. honoring stanford great. they play the seahawks tomorrow. cardinals down seven. piggy, the end zone, incomplete but there is a flag. it is the fade to elish to eliso higgins. what a play in crunch time. we go to overtime. the key fires. humphreys, look at this efforts. barrels in and would not be denied. final chance for oregon. it is incomplete. 31-24. great for stanford. let's rush the field at the farm. a huge boost. >> one minute and a half left. we

wilmer flores decides to test the arm of mookie betts. i don't know. why did it mookie betts has a laser. he failed that test. not a smart play to end the end top of the 8th will smith takes ackley tell. deep to left field. that was out of here. 7 to blue. and that was all she wrote the dodgers go on to win this one, 92 they tie the series at one game apiece. we now head to la for game 3 at dodger stadium. alex wood will get the start for the giants. max scherzer on the mouth from the dodgers. let's hear from san francisco after the game. >> pretty good after second inning. you know, after that i felt like i kind of. got my zone a little bit you know, retired a lot of hitters in a row. >> you know, obviously was how he got to that 6th inning. it is an important decision point in. perhaps you say in a clean inning for gone leone in may be things go a little bit different. we felt really good about causing in the next 3 hitters out. obviously. sometimes that that works out. sometimes it doesn't. and tonight can you explain how you feel now. going back to

the game ended on a strike out with a controversial call on a check swing by wilmer flores. final dodgers 2, giants 1. >> it's a tough way to end it. especially now, there is no need to be angry about that. i just think it's just a disappointing way to end. >> it is. with their victory the dodgers head into nlcs against the atlanta braves. >> i have no words. i am just so distraught. >> it was a good game but it was not supposed to happen like this. >> it is what it is. at the end of the day we showed up, fans showed up. we are giants fans for life. >> what do you say about the season? >> it was amazing. what we accomplished this season was better than we pretty much have done. >> many giants fans are speech less as the season comes to an abrupt end. the game was all it was hyped up to be. even alex the great showed up. giants hadn't lost a game with the rally bunny in attendance. while there is disappointment fans say the giants performed so well this year when expected to finish no higher than third in nl west, they can't wait to see what the team can accomplish next year.

a little wide on the throw but no problem for wilmer flores at bottom of the 5th web still dealing withr to strike out. he is hyped. still no score in the 5th. all right. julio urias entered the game in the 3rd and he was tough. he was the one who was supposed to get the start. hh struck out the side in the bottom of the 5th 3 got donovan solano there to end the ending school. let's see ago barry bonds always gets an ovation. he doesn't have to pay for drinks here and right after that bomb must rubbed off on people because both teams finally got offense go top of the 6. corey seager slaps one into left field. mookie betts. he had 4 hits. he comes around to score and the dodgers draw first blood. >> betts is so good. all right. bottom of the frame. they're rough. he hit the ball night. his first to hit for warning track power that one. a little more than a warning track solo home run the crowd going crazy. >> we've got a tie game baby. all right, steph and draymond to champions in their own right. i sta. >> with staff. you love to see the support. back to wet. here is the future. he is t
