Scores of baseball fans made their way to Jack London Square for the annual fan appreciation day hosted by the Oakland Athletics. Fans lined up to meet, get autographs and pose for pictures with their favorite players.

“It’s amazing how Oakland fans, I’ve always said, it sounds like double,” manager Bob Melvin said before he took the big stage.

“The stars are aligning, 2020 is going to be our year,” president Dave Kaval said.
