OAKLAND — It felt more like an event than a baseball game, a near-capacity party thrown by the Athletics on the night of their 50th anniversary at the Coliseum.
They even had a birthday cake cut by president David Kaval, and the icing was a 10-2 win by the A’s over the Chicago White Sox before a crowd announced at 46,028. The A’s got the party rolling with two-out five-run rally in the bottom of the first inning and never looked back.
