The A’s last game in Oakland, the current postseason situation, the Dodgers and the Yankees are over

The A’s last game in Oakland, the current postseason situation, the Dodgers and the Yankees are over

On Thursday, the baseball world said goodbye to the Oakland A’s who play baseball at the Oakland Coliseum. While it was an extremely bittersweet day that ended with the Athletics securing a 3-2 victory over the Texas Rangers, fans of the yellow and green are now left with one baseball team to root for and another to leave Oakland.

Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman recap the events of the day that saw Barry Zito sing the National Anthem and manager Mark Kotsay give a postgame speech to everyone in attendance. They then discuss what’s next for the A’s and all the uncertainty that still surrounds the franchise and their move to Sacramento.

Also on this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, the guys talk about how things currently stand with the postseason picture, as well as the New York Yankees and Los Angeles Dodgers winning their respective divisions, how the NL Wild Card could go down . to the New York Mets and Atlanta Braves playing a doubleheader on Monday, and we say goodbye to the Minnesota Twins’ chances to make the fall dance.

Jake and Jordan close out the episode with their picks for The Good, The Bad, and The Uggla, including the return of the video game Backyard Baseball, Ron Washington’s quotes about players in the Los Angeles Angels organization, and someone proposing at the Chicago White Sox game.
