Barry zito has seemingly been the whipping boy since signing the contract with the giants a few years ago but he will start game one of the world series for San Francisco. He saved the giants season putting them in position to win game 6 and 7 in San Francisco. What a remarkable turn around for a guy not even on the roster in 2010. To be able to participate in a world series is a blessing. I was thankful to have another opportunity after my nlds game which didnt go so well for me and i got that opportunity and we got the boys back here in San Francisco.

Reporter things have always been humming in Industrial Technology classrooms like this one at laney college. Its where students learn skills like machining, mechanics and welding.

Reporter he and another east bay intern are two of the many laney students getting ready to enter a field where the average age is 54 and beginning pay is about 30 an hour. One Industry Group says there is a narrow skills gap in the u. S. Right now but thats only expected to widen. One study warns that there will be a severe shortage of workers due to baby boomers retiring by the year 2020 with the highest demand for welders, machinists and mechanics. When those jobs come, are we going to have a workforce to deal with it . Reporter industrial instructors are creating that ready Workforce One student at a time. I actually have a bachelors degree from ucsanta cruz. Reporter melissa gave up on her bachelors degree and is getting marketable skills she expects to use. What are the advantages of this field .

Reporter kristin says its all about buyer confidence. Figuring out, gee, thats are the lowest Interest Rates ever, this is fantastic. What am i waiting for . So if they find the place that they like, one of the few that are on the market they want it. Reporter hammond says the lack of inventory is due to peoples lingering fear of selling in a down economy. They just havent woken up to the fact that whats happening now is that most homes are getting, you know, three, five, seven, 14 offers if theyre priced right. Reporter ironically he says its smarter to lower the asking price to attract more buyers who then compete with each other to drive up the price. And he says, thats ultimately good for everyone.

Theres even a giants flag flying over city hall. But the mayor says its now time for San Francisco to come up big for baseball fans. Were having to go about our work in a very time constrained way to make sure that everyone who comes here whether its to the airport or muni and the Public Transportation is all taken care of and the hotels we are making sure they have all their rooms ready because we expect huge crowds to come into the city. The mayor says he has an idea for a little wager with the mayor of detroit but while he is not ready to say just exactly what he has in mind, mayor lee says it might involve musicians from both cities. The other big competition here with the president ial debates over and election day just two weeks from today, the candidates are focusing their attentions on where they can make the most impact. Cbs 5 political reporter grace lee with how the polls may affect those decisions. Grace. Reporter that was the other big thing going on last night, right . The numbers are closer than ever nationally and in the key battleground states. Because it is a statistical dead heat it could dictate where the candidates turn their attention in these days before the election and time is running out. Reporter in the post debate world, it is a sprint to the finish with no holding back. Republican Campaign Strategist bob gardner says, this is the 9th inning in president ial politics. But now, its the home stretch and it starts all over again. Its going to be all out. I can tell from you experience that nobody is going to be getting any sleep. Reporter the president hit two swing states in one day, ohio and florida. If you say that you love american cars during a debate, youre car guy, but you wrote an article entitled, let detroit go bankrupt. No you definitely have a case of romnesia. Reporter not to be outdone, romney ratcheted up his campaigning in nevada. Well, you know, he as, uhm, he has been reduced to trying to defend characters on sesame street and [ laughter ] word games of various kinds. Reporter and in a race this tight, both need all the face time they can get. Its one of the reasons that in just 14 days the candidates and their supporters will spend 100 million in tv ads especially since the polls are closer than ever. In ohio, the president s lead has shrunk to just 2 points. In florida, romney has the advantage by one and in virginia its a dead heat. Mark has conducted polls for three decades and says because its so close, the candidates will likely decide their final campaign moves based on polling. Absolutely. The key in the next few weeks is where can the candidate go where they can make the most difference and get some publicity for their visit . Reporter bob says that media will become increasingly important in the swing states because at this point, the tv markets are already saturated. Theres no more ad space to buy. And its probably just one of the reasons the president will hit six swing states in just three days. Im grace lee, cbs 5. Im sure the romney camp has a similar plan in mind. Two men not getting a lot of sleep. No. Thank you. It was one of the worst days of the year for the stock market. Underwhelming corporate Earnings Report rattled investors. They didnt meet expectations. The dow fell to the lowest in four months. It sank 243 points. The nasdaq was also down 26. 5. S p finished down almost 21 points. Despite bad news on wall street theres good news in the bay area. Gasoline prices are slowly coming down. Cbs 5 reporter Ann Notarangelo on why price are expected to drop and to continue to do so as the month goes on. This is what happens when you sell gas for 3. 39 a gallon. You have a long line of cars waiting to pull in. This is what we have seen all day long at bonfair market in concord. You may not be able to find gas this cheaply throughout the bay area but prices are going down about 20 cents in the last week. I wish it came down as fast as it went up. That was unbelievable. Reporter in early october californias average prices some places topped 5 but that pain at the pump is easing. Last week drivers were paying 4. 67 in San Francisco, this week 4. 49. Oakland last week 4. 59 compared to 4. 37 this week and in san jose the average prices dropped from 4. 58 to 4. 38. Aaa says its because the governor authorized the early switchover to the cheaper winter blend of gasoline and the supply troubles at california refineries have been resolved. Do you buy it . No. Not at all. I think its i think theres too much of a monopoly by the Major Oil Companies quite frankly. Reporter other factors include big corporations cut their earnings forecasts raising problems about Economic Growth and oldfashioned supply and demand. I thought it would come down because people cant pay 5 a gallon. Reporter but it really is a situation of buyer beware. I shopped three or four different gas stations and theres about 80 cents difference between two gas stations right now. Reporter this concord station is selling gas for 3. 39. In livermore, its a dollar more a gallon. I usually try to go to costco but, you know, a lot of times of its just everywhere i have time. Reporter but everyone has access to website that is direct them to cheaper gas an if you dont shop around, theres little incentive for stations like the one in livermore to drop their prices. Do you wonder why everybody is paying those prices right now . I think its a scam or misprint. Reporter good news for drivers though. Aaa expects the gas prices to go down through thanksgiving and if you would like to see where the lowest gas prices are in your area, go to our website, cbssf. Com. Then you can find a link to lowest gas prices. In concord, Ann Notarangelo, cbs 5. Thank you. Critics call them a death trap for children. The push for stricter regulations on those Energy Drinks.

But as cbs reporter andrea fujii shows us, the Southern California company that makes monster denies the drink is dangerous. Reporter Monster Energy drink is under scrutiny by the fda looking into the drinks possible adverse effects after it was cited in five deaths in the last few years including a 14yearold girl from maryland. A lancaster California Law firm is now one of two firms suing monster on behalf of the family. They say she died after drinking two 24ounce cans of it. Her cause of death cardiac arrhythmia due to caffeine toxicity. She had a mild underlying heart company. The family hopes they can keep this from happening to anyone else. Reporter the problem is fda caps the amount of caffeine in soda but there is no such limit for Energy Drinks. A 24ounce can of monster has 7 times the amount of caffeine as a 12ounce can of cola. That level can be dangerous according to this doctor especially for young children. The Blood Pressure could go up as well as the heart rhythm rising excess elevator. Reporter Monster Beverage Corporation says, monster does not believe that its products are in any way responsible for the death of miss fournier. Neither the science nor facts support the allegation.

The marketing chief described it as thin as a pencil and light as a pad of paper with ultrafast wireless and ten hours of battery life. We were so far ahead of the competition, i cant even see them in the rear view mirror. Reporter the big announcement comes a month after the company unveiled the long line of other gadgets including the iphone 5. Andrea chang is a Technology Reporter for the Los Angeles Times and says theres a reason behind apples backto back announcements. A lot of it is because the Holiday Season is coming up and for any retailer anyone who sells products you want to get in before the november period starts.

Video is coming from blue canyon but i have some snowfall totals from donner pass. 30 inches of snow since sunday night. Sugar bowl 26 inches of snow since sunday night. And squaw valley 28 inches of snow. That should whet the appetite of many a skier. Already 2 feet of snow on the ground in sierra. We are still talking about the boys of summer.

The giants trying to get a jump on the rain, allen. You heard pauls forecast. They just put the tarp on there a couple of minutes ago to protect the infield for game one tomorrow. Less than 24 hours ago, it was pouring but nobody cared with the Second NationalLeague Championship in three years. Gong believable never been done before. Thats the kind of thing we are. Love it we have so many challenges and we elevate after each challenge, dennis. So we would go with brian wilson out with his arm injury or dodgers with their big blockbuster deal and each time we would elevate. One of those like, you know, dancing in the rain type things where youre happy to be in the rain. Which you dont get very often, feel like a kid again. Reporter it was fun to be part of that last night. Back in april it was hard to imagine the giants getting to the world series but its harder to imagine the manwill pitch for them game one tonight night. Two years ago against the first world series celebrations from coming west there was barry zito left off the postseason roster but not out of the celebration. At the end of the day, its about the attempt, not my personal situation, and bring this home to San Francisco. Reporter i never found zito pouting or at least he never showed it. Cynics would give you 126 million reasons why he didnt deserve to complain about his lesser role. But athletes especially those who have been in big post season games they want the moment. They yearn for the baseball not the bench. Money is great but being relevant is better. So when zito took the mound on friday night in st. Louis with the season in his hands, he was relevant again. And with the nation watching, he turned back the clock. I was there during the play offs in minnesota six years ago when zito outpitched Johan Santana then baseballs most dominant pitcher. And as the brilliant night ended in st. Louis, i wondered what he would like to tweet to all those who condemned him for years of failing to live up to the contract. And the mansigned him to that deal, peter magowan, stood like a proud father in a victorious clubhouse. When you sign for an organizations point of view a contract like that you have to believe in the character of the person. Can you count on him . Reporter now the giants will count on zito to pitch in game one of the world series. When you came up in oakland i felt like i was a boy and then to mature in this game is a big deal. That process is in huge part becoming a free agent going to a new team, signing a big deal and dealing with everything that comes with that. So i feel like an adult in the game now. Reporter the tigers worked out before the giants this afternoon. They have been off since thursday since they swept the yankees in the alcs. Justin verlander will oppose barry zito. I think i was probably in college watching the game of his and his curve ball was just unbelievable. He still has a good curve ball. But that back when he was with oakland was unreal and i hope not to see it. [ laughter ] he told me he was pitching game one so i said okay. [ laughter ] so i kind of just follow suit. Reporter giants will be facing by far the most dominant pitcher 30 with an earned run average under one. Verlander with 25 strikeouts in 24 innings. The tigers havent sorted out their closer situation since jose val verde blew a lead last week so now they are going with phil cope in the 9th inning. He went to senator high school in Central California and made the trip to San Francisco a few times to watch the giants when he was a kid. I watched barry bonds hit two bombs. Right field corner. When they announced his name i tore through the parking lot and handed my ticket off and saw him launch the ball into the water. What a memory. Off the Field Baseball news. Red sox introduce john farrell as their new manager. He had the same job with toronto last year and was bostons pitching coach prior to that. The bombshell of the day, the marlins fired Ozzie Guillen after one year. Miami lost 93 games despite a huge payroll. Guillens comments praising fidel castro in a Magazine Article likely did not help his cause. So the baseball season continues here in San Francisco. Game one of the world series tomorrow night. Allen, no tickets available. Im very sorry to tell you. [ laughter ] ah. Crushed. Disappointment. See you at 10 and 11. Captions by caption colorado comments captioncolorado. Com , thirtyeight.
