San Francisco Giants 7 v. Oakland A's 1

Led by new arrival Steven Duggar, the San Francisco Giants took the first game in the Bay Bridge Series game, 7 to 1, at AT&T Park on Friday night. Duggar went two-for-three, with three runs scored and two RBIs. Above, Duggar receives helpful advice from first base coach Jose Alguacil (17). Photo by Rich Yee.

Giants pitcher Madison Bumgarner threw six-plus innings, with one run scored to earn the win. While hitless at the plate, Bumgarner drove a ball to the deepest part of AT&T Park for an out.
|
Oakland A's pitcher Santiago Casilla went two innings, giving up one hit with one wild pitch. Unfortunately Casilla's fortunes changed the next day, as he was
placed on waivers.
A's manager Bob Melvin is hopeful that the move will allow Casilla to find more work with another club

Ultimate Sports Guide photographer Rich Yee (blue jacket) averted serious injury in the bottom of the seventh inning when the Giants' Brandon Crawford hit a foul ball straight toward his head, missing him by inches. Said Yee, "I had only a split second to decide if I should drop the camera and cover my head or hold the camera and take my chances. I chose to take my chances." (There is no netting in the dugout to protect players or photographers.) Rich's close call was caught on NBC Sports Bay Area's broadcast. Final score: San Francisco Giants 7, Oakland A's 1.

In Reflection, the Oakland A's
By Andy Dolich
|
Andy Dolich, a consummate and highly regarded Bay Area marketing executive, has served in administrative capacities for the Oakland A's, Golden State Warriors, Memphis Grizzlies, the San Francisco 49ers and other professional organizations. Dolich was the Oakland A's VP of business operations for 14 years and draws upon his personal experience to reflect on the team's history as the Athletics celebrate 50th years in Oakland. Below
is the first of his three part series. (Items
displayed in this article are from Andy's personal collection.)
A Half Century of Oakland A's Ownerships
The Oakland A's are celebrating the club's 50th anniversary throughout this season and the All-Star break seemed like a good time to look into the history of this storied franchise. This is especially appropriate since the team is playing at such a high level and showing home run power that has been their signature since they came to Oakland.
Since moving from Kansas City in 1967 the A's have been owned by only four entities:
1968-1980: Charles O. Finley -- 13 years
1981-1995: Walter Haas, Wally Haas and Roy Eisenhardt -- 15 years
1996-2004: Steve Schott/Ken Hofmann -- 9 years
2005-2018: Lew Wolff/John Fisher (Fisher buys Wolff out in November, 2016) -- 13 years
Comparing different eras and ownerships is an inexact science and this comparison isn't meant to be an equation which can be proven by a group of Analytics PhDs. There are a number of categories that are instructive on the differentiators between the four ownerships over a half century. It is no secret that I have a positive bias towards the Haas family, having worked in their front office from 1980-1994.
This is my overview of the franchise from A's to Z, "Z" being team photographer Michael Zagaris who has seen and photographed most of the 50 years of A's baseball.

Meeting Charlie O. Finley
I only met Charlie Finley once at a Bay Area Sports Hall of Fame induction ceremony. At the VIP reception Finley arrived proudly wearing his favorite, loud yellow/gold blazer to introduce Jim Catfish Hunter. Charlie O. came into the room
cradling a dayglo-striped football that he had been pitching as it would show up better for high school games played under substandard lighting. Raiders owner Al Davis was also in the room to induct Quarterback Ken "Snake" Stabler.
An enterprising San Francisco Chronicle photographer approached Finley and said,
"Mr. Finley, can I borrow the ball for a minute for a photo with Al and the Snake?"
"No," snapped Charlie.
The photographer laughed and asked again. Finley turned on his heels and walked away, firmly clutching the pigmented pigskin.
Clearly Charles O. Finley wasn't big on sharing.

Attendance: Overall average per season of their ownership terms
Finley -- 9,642
Haas -- 23,826
Schott/Hoffman - 21,145
Fisher -- 20,858
Attendance: Finley
Under Finley the A's posted some of the lowest attendance numbers in the modern history of Major League Baseball.
* In 1979 they drew a paltry and almost unbelievable season attendance of 306,763, for an average of 3,787 fans per game.
*
In a game on April 17, 1979 only 250 fans holding the 653 tickets sold showed up for an A's victory.
Attendance: Haas
When the new ownership group showed up for the 1981 season we inherited a season ticket base of 326 -- not accounts, but total full season tickets from the Finley finale. Before the first pitch we had pushed it up to 4,000 full season tickets.
* In 1990 the team set its all-time attendance record of 2,900,217 or 35,805 fans per game.
* The 1988 season was the first season in which the franchise drew over 2 million (2,287,335) to the Coliseum.
* T
he Athletics' 1981 season ranks among the organization's most interesting. Only two years removed from a disastrous 54-108 finish, the A's won their first American League West crown since 1975 under second-year manager Billy Martin. The "Billy Ball" A's began the season with a then American League record 11 consecutive wins. The squad followed its first loss of the season, losing 3-2 loss to the Seattle Mariners, with six more victories. Their 17-1 start (through 18 games) remains unmatched.
* The team played only 99 games in 1981 due to a baseball labor lock out which canceled 713 games league wide. The A's were 35-21 at the Coliseum, drawing 1,304,052 fans. Based on their average attendance of 25,000 per game over 25 games they could have added an additional 625,000 fans driving attendance to near 2 million. It would have been baseball's greatest one-year attendance increase in history.
* A season low occurred in 1983, drawing 1,294,941 for an average of 15,987 per game.
* The only All-Star game ever played in Oakland took place on July 14, 1987, drawing a sellout of 49,671. The San Francisco Giants have hosted three All-Star games in San Francisco, the last one coming in 2007.
* On April 16, 1982 the A's set a record of 51,513 for Opening Day.

Attendance -- Schott/Hofmann
Season high in 2003 of 2,206,596, averaging 27,365 per game
Season low in 1996 of 1,148,380, averaging 14,178 per game
Attendance -- Fisher
Season high in 2014 of 2,003,628, averaging 24,736 per game
Season low in 2009 of 1,418,391, averaging 17,511 per game
* In 2017 the A's finished 29th in attendance, averaging 18,466 at the Coliseum.
* In 2016 they finished next to last again, averaging 18,784. So far this season (as of 7/4) they are averaging 15,847, in 27th place.

Free Ticket Game
--
On April 17, 2018 the A's gave away free tickets to celebrate their 50th anniversary in Oakland, hoping to break their all-time attendance record. 46,028 showed up for the A's 10-2 win over the Chicago White Sox, 2,000 shy of capacity.
Sandy Alderson
My friend and long time A's colleague Sandy Alderson is battling cancer. He recently left his position as general manager of the New York Mets to deal with ongoing treatment. I would ask that all A's fans keep Sandy and his family in their thoughts.

Cacklefest, Nostalgia Get-Together Highlight 31st Toyota NHRA Sonoma Nationals
SONOMA, Calif. -- Race fans can take a step back in time during the Toyota NHRA Sonoma Nationals, July 27-29, as Sonoma Raceway hosts an array of nostalgic fan experiences.
For the fourth consecutive year, a collection of nostalgia dragsters will light up the sky during a can't-miss Cacklefest on Friday, July 27. Ten dragsters, including the Burkholder Brothers Fuel Altered Topolino and the Waterman-Hampshire Fuel Dragster, which both raced in the first NHRA event in Sonoma, will fire up their engines in front of the Main Grandstand just before Nitro qualifying under the lights.
These dragsters and many more will be on display throughout the weekend in the 9th annual Nostalgia Get-Together, which will feature more than 30 vintage racing machines and hot rods in the main paddock garage. Entry to the Get-Together is free with admission into the raceway. Image by Pam Jacobson.

Sports Prep Star -- Haley Jones
Archbishop Mitty-San Jose -- Basketball -- Senior (2019)
Haley Jones becomes the first girl to top SportStars Magazine's Bay Area 75 athlete rankings in the six-year history of the annual list which counts down the Bay Area's top 75 prep athletes. She did so as a slam dunk choice, which is funny because that may be the one thing she CAN'T do on a basketball court. (Or maybe she can? We're not going to rule it out.)
During the 2017-18 school year Jones earned State, NorCal, and Regional Player of the Year honors from Gatorade, SportStars, Bay Area News Group and the San Francisco Chronicle,
respectively. She was also a first team All-State selection by Cal-Hi Sports and one of four finalists for their Ms. State Basketball award. As a junior, she averaged 21.8 points, 10 rebounds and 4.1 assists. She shot 64 percent from the field and 46 percent from behind the arc. Jones was recently named to the USA Basketball U17 FIBA World Cup team; she'll wear national team colors in Belarus from July 21-29.
Finally, she'll enter the 2018-19 school year as ESPNW.com's No. 1 ranked senior wing in the country, and No. 2 ranked prospect overall.
