Former major league player David Newhan got a call from A’s bench coach Ryan Christenson late Thursday evening. It wasn’t unusual for Christenson to call — the best friends of 25 years talk regularly — but this time was di. . .

“If there was any kind of intent behind it then, yeah, that’d be scary,” Newhan said. “With Ryan, it’s the complete opposite. It’s so obvious that he was caught off guard and then offended himself that he even did that… That’s just so far from who he is and what he stands for.”
