Photos: Highlights of the last Bay Bridge Series at the Oakland Coliseum

After the Raiders left town in 2020, the Bay Bridge Series was the last cross-bay rivalry left in major sports.

Today, that comes to an end as the Oakland Athletics take on the San Francisco Giants one last time at the Coliseum.

With the bases loaded and no outs in the bottom of the 10th inning, the Oakland A’s had a chance to close out the Bay Bridge Series with one more A’s victory in the Coliseum.

Instead, three Oakland batters struck out in order to close out the 4-2 loss in front of over 32,000 fans hailing from across Northern California.

A throng of 37,551 fans attended the first of the two-game series on Saturday, a 2-0 A’s victory that saw Oakland’s Osvaldo Bido take a no-hitter into the sixth inning of the 147th matchup between the teams.

Among those in town for the encore was lifelong Giants supporter Timothy Cravalho, a man with the Giants logo tattooed on his left bicep. A fan of Oakland’s rival for over five decades, Cravalho still expressed sadness at the end of the series.

“My heart is broken for them, our rival across the bridge. It’s sad for Oakland, and it’s sad for everyone who is a baseball fan,” he said.
