DUBLIN, Calif. -- Kids at the School of Imagination received a special guest on Wednesday morning, when A's utility player Chad Pinder and his fiancee, Taylor, spent time at the full-inclusion preschool serving special-needs children.
Pinder also will be signing autographs outside Section 218 before Saturday's game at the Coliseum for fans who make a $30 donation to the school, which will be recognized as the Nonprofit of the Game.
Wednesday was Pinder's second visit to the school, which serves around 600 kids a year with developmental challenges, such as autism.
