Prior to the A’s 4-3 loss to the Los Angeles Angels on Saturday, the team received a surprise visit from their families … virtually, of course.
The loved ones of the A’s players sent in video messages announcing Saturday's starting lineup on the video board.
The Green and Gold fams can't cheer on our guys at the ballpark, so they sent their love via the lineup! #RootedInOakland
