Pitching. Offense. Defense. Fans. An old stadium that sometimes gets filled with sewage. They’ve got it all in the East Bay.
Meet the 2013 Oakland A's. Oakland: Where a Cuban defector can become a Home Run Derby champion.
Where a 27-year-old third baseman who's never played a full season and is scared of curveballs can become a legit MVP candidate.
That's Josh Donaldson.
Whose right-fielder has an arm that would make Tom Emanski's palms sweat.
And that's Josh Reddick.
And who celebrates like this.
