A's to Donate Ticket Proceeds From Fans' Reverse Boycott to Local Charities

The Oakland Athletics are responding to a planned "reverse boycott" during Tuesday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays by donating all ticket revenue to local charities.

The Alameda County Food Bank and the Oakland Public Education Fund will receive the donations, the franchise said in a statement, per Hannah Keyser of Yahoo Sports.
