Re: stadiums. My next door neighbor is a die-hard A's fan. Per him, now that the Vegas move is in limbo, things are getting serious again with Oakland and the Mausoleum.
BP caps/jerseys have been a thing for a while now, though, right? TBH, I’d rather they have a billion options for pre-game/post-game/practice/spring training and then only one home and one road uniform for the whole season, as I haven’t been a big fan of the 3rd/alternate/fashion/holiday uniforms that get used in-season.
I kinda give a pass for the holiday ones (camo, pink, etc) as they're one-and-done and aren't dragged out many times throughout the season, but I'm with you. (the Twin Cities are pretty sweet, though)
Same. One-off special event unis are fine. But I am "get off my lawn" about all the alternative unis. One home, one away. Don't screw with classic looks. No pixie vests.
Happy Vampire Weekend presale day to those who celebrate. I mean I have a Citi-branded card sitting around here, so I think that I can presale…
The AE1 is different but not a shoe I’d ever wear. Better than the former president’s first shoe. . .
I just got an emailed advert for the A's "official batting practice cap."
JFC. Are we moving toward multiple costume changes in-game, like a Madonna or Lady Gaga concert?
Wait, what. The A's have a baseball club? Are they in the PCL?
They are hoping to level up to that.

They might be local to you next year!
