RIP Vida Blue. One of the most decorated pitchers in both A's history and MLB. He even has he honor of having pitched on both sides of The Bay for the A's and Giants. Even after his playing days he was a frequent Bay Area sports personality who charmed us with his wit and humor. There will never be another one like him.

We all know A's owner, John Fisher, is wealthy AF. This puts it into further perspective in comparison to the rest of the wealthy owners in MLB.

Oakland A's fans deserve better than a IDGAF billionare owner who doesn't care about baseball, A's fans, building a winning team, and refusing to spend $ in Oakland. A's fans and baseball fans also deserve a better MLB commissioner who isn't a clown that doesn't like baseball and never even cared if the A's stayed in Oakland or not. It was all a charade from day one, the A's were going to move out of Oakland, Las Vegas was the goal all along. A new ballpark at Jack London was a pipe dream deal.

The great city of Oakland is about to lose its third pro sports team since 2019. Blame John Fisher, blame Rod Manfred, blame the City of Oakland, in the end the Oakland A's fans lose and the Battle of the Bay will just be a memory :(

The late Jesús Alou spent the first six seasons of his 15-year career in the majors with the Giants. He returned to the Bay Area with the A’s late in the 1973 season and hit .306 down the stretch and helped Oakland win its second straight World Series title.

Jesús was a career .280 hitter with 32 home runs and 31 stolen bases with the Giants, Astros, A’s and the Mets. He was picked by the Montreal Expos in the 1968 expansion draft, but was traded to the Astros with Donn Clendenon for Rusty Staub.

After his days as a player, he worked as an international scout for the Expos, Marlins and Red Sox. His career in baseball encompassed over 60 years as a player, coach, scout, and ambassador.

Ryan Vogelsong is one of the greatest Giants Spring Training non-roster invite stories and one of the greatest comeback stories in MLB history. At age 22, he made his MLB debut as a Giants September 2000 call-up. Less than a year later, Ryan was traded along with outfielder Armando Rios to the Pirates at the 2001 deadline for ace Jason Schmidt and outfielder John Vander Wal.

Ryan was immediately inserted into the Pirates rotation and blew out his arm after just his second start, requiring Tommy John surgery. Once healthy, he would struggle with the Pirates as a starter and a reliever only to walk as a free agent after five seasons with the Pirates. With no teams willing to sign him, his MLB career looked like it could be over at just age 28. Eventually Ryan would play in Japan’s Nippon Professional Baseball league with the Hansin Tigers and later with the Orix Buffaloes. He would sign minor league deals with the Phillies and Angels only to be eventually released by both.

Ten years after the Giants traded him to the Pirates, the Giants signed him to a minor league deal and invited him to Spring Training in 2011. He started the season with AAA Fresno but after Barry Zito went down with an injury in April, Ryan got called up to San Francisco. Ryan never looked back, he was inserted into the Giants starting rotation after two relief appearances, became a 2011 NL All-Star and came up huge in the postseason as one of the key contributors to the Giants 2012 and 2014 World Series titles.

Barry Bonds and Dusty Baker share a laugh during Spring Training in 1993, Barry’s first Spring Training in a Giants uniform. This is their first year together in a Giants uniform, which would last until 2003.

The Big 3 during Spring Training 2003. The trio, Barry Zito, Mark Mulder and Tim Hudson, would combine to win 57 of the 103 A’s team wins during the 2003 season on their way to the AL West title.
