It’s the end of an era at the Coliseum: The last remaining player from all three of the A’s 2012-14 playoff teams was traded Sunday when the A’s sent Sean Doolittle to the Washington Nationals, along with fellow reliever Ryan Madson.
Doolittle, an All-Star in 2014, suggested that Green Day’s “Time of Your Life” would have to be employed to sum up his time in Oakland. “We’re going to put together a montage with that Green Day song and there’s going to be a bunch of highlights and stuff,” he said. “There are a lot of great memories from the ’12-13-14 teams, and there are also a lot of great people I’m going to miss.
