OAKLAND – It’s not true that the entire population of Linden in San Joaquin County will relocate to the Coliseum this weekend. It may just seem like it.
In their first opportunity to see Linden High product and Yankees’ exploding star Aaron Judge, family and friends of Judge have made it a point to buy large chunks of tickets in right field, the better to be close to the Major League’s home run leader in his first appearance in Northern California as a big leaguer.
The Yankees are in town for four games starting Thursday night, and while presumably Linden is populated by A’s and/or Giants fans, for this weekend at least, it would be no surprise if they are all Yankees fans.
