Kaval made the announcement on Facebook Live, exclaiming, "The fans have spoken. We're taking off the tarps."

The tarps will be removed ahead of a 10-game homestand that begins Friday with a three-game set against the Astros. The A's have pledged a donation of 50 percent of these View Level ticket purchases -- currently priced at $15 -- during the homestand to Oakland Promise, an initiative that aims to triple the number of college graduates from Oakland in the next decade.

More than 12,000 additional seats will now be available in the View Level sections of 300-315 and 319-334, bringing the Coliseum capacity to 47,170.
