the umps and coaches are trying to move up, too

I've only been to one Ports game, but it was awesome Bought tickets online a few days in advance…for a Tuesday night game, my friend and I bought seats in the first row, directly behind home plate — literally the best seats in the house — for $11. I had a Pretzel Burger (a burger that basically has two halves of a giant pretzel instead of a bun), which was disgusting, but also something I could only ever get at a low-level minor league baseball game. Addison Russell went 2-for-4 with a double. It was also cool to see a two-man umpiring crew, with a couple of guys who were only slightly older than the players, working their way up the ladder. Oh yeah, it was 101 degrees for a 7pm first pitch. But still, I should go again. Let's Go Oakland, Go Blue!
