“This project has been a culmination of our collective works and we hope it shows the owners what we all know to be true,” Paul Bailey, one of the three owners of Last Dive Bar, said in a message to The AP.
It made the boxes and a snazzy, colorful “Keep the Athletics in … OAKLAND” postcard. This last-ditch effort includes a big assist by clothing company Last Dive Bar, a loyal A’s supporter. The devoted fan group chose 15 owners to receive the box, selected because maybe - just maybe - there’s one more chance to keep the A’s in Oakland. Maybe the Seattle Mariners’ John Stanton. Or perhaps Ray Davis of the World Series champion Texas Rangers. They hope Los Angeles Angels owner Arte Moreno might be an ally.
