On Headline Sports podcast with Stephen Ruderman:

#1 Stephen, the Oakland A’s have presented the idea of working three different locations during the 2025 season after they finish their lease in 2024 at the Oakland Coliseum they are considering their minor league team the Las Vegas Aviators park, the Coliseum or Oracle Park home of the San Francisco Giants

#2 A’s president David Kaval said the final decision rests with MLB and the Commissioners office where the A’s would land in 2025 but the A’s could end up playing in either one of those locations or split up their home dates in all three locations.

#3 Shooting at White Sox Park on Friday night in the South Side of Chicago, the shooting that took place a mile away from Guarantee Rate Field that struck two women fans at the A’s and White Sox game. The two ladies were taken to Chicago University Medical Center for medical treatment and did not sustain life threatening injuries and it was reported they were shot in the leg the other woman was grazed in abdomen. The White Sox who had a concert scheduled at the end of the game which was canceled due to technical difficulties.

#4 Turning to the NFL and the Trey Lance trade to the Dallas Cowboys. Lance had a rough first game against the Las Vegas Raiders in week one of pre season he was sacked three times in four possessions and showed improvement against the Denver Broncos in week two of pre season but was traded none the less by the Niners in week three. According the head coach Kyle Shanahan Lance didn’t work out. Did he or did he not have anything left in the tank?

#5 Ironically Lance will face the Raiders a second time tonight this time as a Dallas Cowboy as the Cowboys host the Raiders at AT&T Stadium. Lance who was traded on Friday night will face the Raiders for a second time in pre season and hopes that the results will be better than the first time.

Oakland A’s fans display “Sell” T shirts at the Oakland Coliseum. The A’s fans are planning a reverse boycott to show that the A’s have their support in Oakland and it is their hope that it would impact MLB so that they might rethink allowing the A’s to move from Oakland to Las Vegas (USA Today photo)

On the MLB The Show podcast with Mauricio Segura:

#1 Oakland A’s fans have made the top headlines from coast to coast the battle cry is one word as they hand out green t shirts that say “Sell” on them. They plan to hold a reverse boycott tonight handing out the T shirts to the first 7,000 fans at the Oakland Coliseum. It’s been reported that this contest is sold out.

#2 Mauricio, after the Milwaukee Brewers were swept by the Oakland A’s in three games they have fallen from first to second and are now one game behind the Pittsburgh Pirates it has to be surprising circumstances for the Brewers who had the last place A’s come into American Family Field and sweep them in their own park.

#3 Texas Rangers pitcher Jacob deGrom who clocked pitches 99.4, 99.5, 99.7, 100.1 and 101.0. On opening day deGrom lasted just 73 pitches later he was taken out and had to have elbow surgery. deGrom has a five year $185 million deal and there could be some fear the Rangers will be on the hook for the money if deGrom is damaged goods.

#4 Mauricio, talk about three All Stars who will be making their first appearance at the mid summer classic this July first Atlanta Braves catcher Sean Murphy who hitting .287, 54 hits, 12 homers and 42 RBIs, from the Tampa Bay Rays Yandy Diaz .313, 65 hits, 12 home runs, 34 RBIs, and third from the St Louis Cardinals Nolan Gorman .257, 52 hits, 15 home runs, and 46 RBIs.

#5 It’s going to be a special time for fans visiting the great Northwest for the All Star game in Seattle Tue Jul 11, 2023 they’ll be seeing the best in baseball and what a great host the city of Seattle is, there are the great points of interest Pioneer Square, Chinatown, Westlake District and of course T Mobile Field the home of the All Star Game.

On Headline Sports podcast with Stephen Ruderman and Augie Mesenburg:

#1 Stephen tonight is the Belmont Stakes a the third of the three big horse races but the talk and focus going into tonight’s Belmont has been about that eight horse that had died last month at Churchill Downs at the Kentucky Derby. Is this part of the sport of the dangers of the sport or the care for the horse have just taken a dive in the last year or so.

#2 The Denver Nuggets chalked up another win against the Miami Heat and are up 3-1 in the series it just looks like a series where the Nuggets are just cruising and they could wrap this NBA Finals up Monday night in Denver.

#3 Tuesday night will mark a historic night in Oakland A’s history as they will be holding a reverse boycott to show MLB that the A’s do have fan support and that the fans are not at fault for the A’s having to leave Oakland for Las Vegas. Tuesday could be the day that the Nevada Legislature could vote on the $380 million in tax credits to help for Tropicana ballpark on the Vegas strip.

#4 The San Francisco Giants are coming off a sweep in Denver against the Colorado Rockies and opened this three game series with the Chicago Cubs with a 3-2 loss on Friday night. The Giants sit in third place 6.5 games back of the first place Arizona Diamondback coming into Saturday night’s game.

#5 The Oakland A’s put together their longest win streak of the season at three straight taking the last two games of the three game series in Pittsburgh and taking the first game against the Milwaukee Brewers on Friday and it may not set the world on fire but you can feel the incentive in the A’s clubhouse.
