On the A’s podcast with Jerry F:

#1 Oakland A’s fans, the Oakland 68s and the Last Dive Bar are hoping to pull off a successful boycott at the Oakland Coliseum tonight as fans will enter the parking lot a little before 5pm try and set up their tailgates and prepare to boycott going into the Coliseum for opening night.

#2 The less than four hours for entering the park decision was made last week when the A’s decided to shorten the parking lot hours from four hours to two hours opening the parking lot just before 5pm. The A’s reasoning was attendance will be small and there is no need to open the lot four hours earlier.

#3 The Last Dive Bar and the Oakland 68s said that the A’s are playing mind games by opening the lot just two hours before game time which at 7:07pm PDT.

#4 Fans in the parking lot are hoped to be heard from inside the park when they plan to all chant for A’s owner John Fisher to “Sell the Team” if successful this would definitely be a national story.

#5 The A’s open up against former A’s catcher and now Cleveland Guardians manager Stephen Vogt. The Guardians will start right hander Steve Bieber he’ll be opposed by the A’s left hander Alex Wood at the Coliseum first pitch 7:07pm PDT.
