Brad Pitt fell in love with the Oakland A's story so he made a movie "MoneyBall" and almost won an Oscar.
Here's another story for this Fortress. If you still don't believer magic & fairytales , then it's time you do believe. The Oakland A's were down 13 games behind the two-time Champions & Division leader 2010 & 2011 World-Series contender Texas Rangers. But you never can tell when magic and enchantment strikes. This year the A's were overlooked and didn't get much media attention.
They were happy to clinch the Wild Card spot so they celebrated three days earlier. Then on the last day , they swept the Texas Rangers. Instead of being a Wild Card team, the Oakland A's became the AL West Champions.(Check out their story). They won their title on the last day of the season.
They celebrated twice, clinching the wild card spot and then clinching the title .Who could have hope for a better scenario.
The San Francisco Bay Area folks are happy that they have two playoff contenders for the World Series. Go Giants! Go A's.
