Photos of the day: A’s 1929 throwback day
Baseball is fun. Playing dress-up is fun. Getting free stuff is fun. Yep, this was a nice way to spend a Sunday afternoon.
The A’s celebrated their 80th anniversary of the 1929 season with Turn-Back-the-Clock Day. They went all out as much as they could with the presentation: the jumbotron was in black & white, people drove on the field in cars of the period, some people dressed up & for the first few thousand fans, they received a replica blue jersey. The jerseys were blue on cream white—colors of the A’s back when they were still in Philadelphia.
The only bad news: Cindy got hit in the head with a batting practice ball at home run depth. We had her checked at the First Aid booth in the Coliseum as a precaution, but it looks like she’ll be fine (maybe just a bad bruise on her forehead).
At least she has a nice jersey.
