“Sell the team” chants easy to hear from anywhere at the ballpark and came through loud and clear on every broadcast of the game.
“To see them go, it just hurts my heart,” Burns said, adding that he’s attended A’s games with his dad growing up. “I want to continue the Bay Bridge series. It kind of sucks, what the owners are doing. They have great fans, we have great fans and it’s a great rivalry.”
Several Giants fans expressed support over their past similar plight to get a ballpark in their region and the two previous threats of relocation . But even more than that, it seems like Giants fans enjoy having a local rival. A’s fans even have support from Giants manager Gabe Kapler, who said pregame that he understands the sentiment and is “all for” the peaceful protest.
San Francisco Giants and Oakland Athletics fans hold up signs as they chant “Sell the Team” in the fifth inning of a MLB game at Oracle Park in San Francisco, Calif., on Tuesday, July 25, 2023.
