The San Francisco Seals were by far the more successful team of the old PCL. In fact, because their field in Emeryville (not Oakland) was so small, when a big crowd was expected, Seals Stadium would be loaned out to the Oaks.

Thanks so much. Really enjoyed! Been an A's fan since 1970 and I kind of wonder how some of the newer A's fans don't appreciate the early A's days. But I know very little about the Oaks and that was just ~20 years prior.

The San Francisco Seals won 14 PCL championships compared to the measly 3 of the Oaks, who played their home games in Emeryville, occasionally playing at Seals Stadium in SF when a bigger crowd was expected. They were the first "Oakland" team to use SF facilities, as the Raiders were to play at Kezar and Candlestick in 1960 and 61.

Sacramento will eventually get a major league team when owners see the enthusiasm for the A's playing for sold out crowds. A new park will be built in the old rail yards and Sac will prosper from it..

2024 update... Oakland is no longer what it once was.... . . Or, will ever be again. Widespread massive homelessness, Homicides, Rape, and a mass open influx inundation of immigration have stifled the City and its sub cities with sanctuaries.. that's clogging medical institutions, and depleting all forms of government funding across the state ... where each individual immigrant are allocated 3000 to 4000 dollars a month, free housing, free medical, cell phones and a brand new 2023-24 Automobile of their choosing on Tax payer (Dime). The Crime rate here... is blind eyed and Lawlessly out of control.. the present Mayor fired the peoples Police chief nearly 2 yrs ago ... and have yet to fill his shoes.. Car jackings, Armed Robery, Rape, smash and grab flash mob retail theft runs unchecked and rampant thru out the cities.. the flourishing buisnesses and outlets you left behind are all but gone, and have moved and relocated to other states.. whats left of your downtowns.. of both San Francisco and Oakland.. are empty shells and boarded up ghost havens where the homeless live, sht and pss up and down the sidewalks begging and harassing those who are left to provide whats left of the vanishing Dime of physical currency. Loved the Video.. for all of its original intent. But Oakland's present politik and Corruption... Have left it desolate... and nearly uninhabitable.

If MLB expands, this league needs to be resurrected as a third major league (added to an 8 team AL, an 8 team NL and a fourth 8 team league). It would be so easy to do, 6 of the 8 cities are already represented, Arizona could be the seventh, and an expansion team in Las Vegas, Portland or Vancouver could be the eighth (or even Denver if you want to put both expansion teams in the east).

Would be nice if baseball (like a lot of pro sports ) stopped being political and got exciting again . Would be kinda cool to bring back player/managers also feel the pitchers should bat . The whole DH thing should've never been a thing in either league if ya ask me . And if it was a thing it should just be an extra position and have a 10 man lineup . Pitchers ONLY suckb at hitting because you tell them to stop after high school or in college whenbin most cases those guys were great hitters throughout school .

@@Nostalgist1938 No, I haven't tried it. (Not sure why.) But I think it would work uptempo. I think it's generally done too slow, now that you mention it. People sing it almost reverentially, whereas it should probably be a fun, light upbeat tune--though with some serious pauses between the sections. That's my thinking, anyway. (Confession: My voice has been giving me problems lately--to the point where I've taken up the clarinet to "sing," with the clarinet, the tunes I can't vocalize lately. )

I expected so much and got so little. The editing, the script, and the reading of the script were all pitiful. They could have shown all the stadiums, some clips from games, and highlights of players that were not so boring. The Coast League was marvelous. So much could have been said & done in a film about it, but this was like a C project by a freshman student of film making.

Have you considered how difficult film editing was back then? No computers, so hours of splicing film by hand, taking whatever footage you were given and trying to make a coherent whole out of it, on a presumably tiny budget, nothing like a Hollywood flick. This is a product of its time. Enjoy it for what it is.

Sometimes I wonder what baseball would have looked like if the Dodgers and Giants hadn't moved, and the PCL had become a true third major league. Would we have the National, American, and Pacific Leagues under the MLB banner? Would the Mets exist? What would baseball in Portland and Sacramento be like?
@VincentPaterno-hs2fv Жыл бұрын
Suppose the PCL had allowed the AL and NL to assimilate its teams, four in each league (e.g., Seattle, San Francisco, Sacramento and Los Angeles to the AL, Portland, Oakland, Hollywood and San Diego to the NL). How might MLB have changed? ⚾
