1/16 Big news from the @athletics today. Even bigger news for West Oakland residents and
organizations who’ve spent decades fighting for cleaner air and water.
2/16 Since we first began exploring Howard Terminal as the potential home for our new ballpark, we’ve worked hard to build a project vision shaped by the voices of West Oakland.
3/16 We consistently hear the same themes: real commitments to grow jobs, support local businesses, and invest in neighborhoods in a way that benefits and protects long-time residents.

Our National pastime has began to lose shares to the nfl and nba. Baseball has continued to honor our anthem and they haven't engaged in the sjw bs. Much higher quality men in @MLB than the other 2 leagues. Support your local team. #MAGA

Usually my sports tweets don't get alot of likes. This one must of resonated with people. Yeah , support our National Pastime. @mlb and hockey have not become platforms for SJW BS !
Baseball Players usually come from 2 parent homes. Parents are very involved with their kids who play T-Ball and Babe Ruth etc. The latino players come from very poor countries and their dream is to make the MLB one day. This is why there is higher characters in @mlb

This right here was the greatest #BatFlip of all time. Homerun, Bat Flip, Pop the collar, and Cadillac around the bases.

How can you not love baseball ?

Hey friends! It’s #openingday! I’m taking the day off work to catch the @Athletics today!

Last year I did a story for @ebyesterday about baseball history in #Oakland! (m.soundcloud.com/user-736747354…)

Then I was invited to talk about it at @NerdNiteEB! Here’s the quick Twitter version.
The @Athletics and owner @DaveKaval have made a big push that the team is #RootedInOakland. After all, #Oakland is about to lose the @warriors and the @RAIDERS within a few years.
There’s more than just the @Athletics who play ball in #Oakland, however. If anyone is really in touch with local baseball roots, it’s the Oakland Colonels. They’re an amateur @BAVBB team playing under 1886 rules.
