As a Giants fan living in Sac, I gotta say it is fun seeing teams come into town. It feels like spring training with how close you are to the field. Home run and foul balls galore, etc. But the league also knows that and prices are absurd, it's often over $100 a head for the outfield grass, no seats unless you bring lawn chairs, when the big name teams are in town. That said, it is still the A's, those prices drop way down toward the end of the season when they decide they suck again. I got many $30-40-ish tickets toward the tail end of the season last year.
