It was revealed that only 1,452 fans showed up to one A’s game last month.

Those expansive, dark green tarps covering Mount Davis at the Coliseum do more than pay homage to the A’s glory days. They help hide part of the most unflattering story during the team’s five-plus decades in Oakland.

“A voice was calling. I don’t know whose voice it was, other than it said I’ve got to go,” said Dolich, who may have wished he’d been sent to an Iowa cornfield last month rather than to a Tuesday night A’s game against Baltimore. As Dolich sat in the Coliseum among an intimate gathering of just 3,700 fans, he was consumed with pain and anger.

A Coliseum source told this news organization there were actually only 1,452 fans at the stadium during the A’s game on May 2. That 1,452 number is even more stunning when considering nearly twice as many fans showed up the next night in Stockton for the A’s Low-A affiliate’s home game. “I do find somewhat problematic because he’s in such a significant position. You may be the last team that leaves a marketplace where all three pro sports teams will have left Oakland, never to return in our lifetime.”

“The A’s are offering deals that are destroying the credibility of their product and it hurts that core group of fans.”
