Oakland A's Playoff Run Starts Tuesday Vs White Sox. Best Of 3, All Games In Oakland. 12:00 PST. MLB - Video

Vasu Vaddiparty previews the A's / White Sox playoff series starting Tuesday in Oakland. Because of 2020, all 3 games will be played in Oakland. There will be no travel. After the WildCard rounds then all the advancing teams will go to their version of the bubble. NL teams will go to Houston and Arlington and AL teams will go to LA and San Diego. The World Series will be at Globe Life Field, the brand new home of the Texas Rangers. A's are the 2-seed and have to take on a White Sox team who 3 weeks ago had the best record in the AL. A tough 2-3 week stretch saw them fall to 2, then to 4th, and after a horrendous weekend against their cross-town rival Cubs fall all the way to 7th. A's fans and players cannot take the White Sox lightly as they have MVP candidate Jose Abreu playing 1st. The A's bullpen has to step up and young Jesus Lazardo has to avoid some of his control problems and attack the strike zone. He has excellent stuff but his location and his consistency will come into play tomorrow. He will be opposed by Lucas Giolito who is the White Sox ace and has a no-hitter on his 2020 resume. Not an easy matchup for Oakland but one they can play well in and win if they continue to do the right things.

Oakland Mayor's Race: LWV Forum Draws Oakland's Older Folks

Oakland Mayor's Race Forum first take. (Which means, there's going to be more of these posts on last night, because a lot was happening.) This just in: The Oakland Tribune's out of touch with Oakland. A number of attendees of the 450 estimated said they learned of the Oakland League Of Women Voters via "the newspaper." All of the people who made that statement were over 50 years old. Still, the forum, which attracted every candidate except Dr. Terrance Candell, was a success. The auditorium at 300 Lakeside Drive seats 380 people, so if you do the math, it was about 70 over capacity. The crowd was a happy mix of supporters of candidates and long-time observers of the Oakland political scene. The one complaint they had was there wasn't enough time to hear what the candidates were about. That wasn't because there were too many candidates, but due to the format. Either Oakland Tribune Editor Martin Reynolds or the League of Women Voter
