Patch Poll: A's or Giants? Who's Your Favorite Bay Area Baseball Team?

The Major League Baseball season kicks off today. Honor your favorite team by voting in our poll and explaining your pick in the comments.

 

The Major League Baseball season opens today.

Officially it began last week when the Oakland Athletics played the Seattle Mariners in Japan, but those games were played around 4 in the morning in California Time.

Regardless, what better way to swing into the season than with a friendly fan poll on Patch?

If you want to attend the home openers, the A's play the Mariners Friday night at 7:05 p.m., while the Giants take on the Pirates April 13 at 1:30 p.m.

We'd also love to see any photos you have showing your team spirit. (A little face paint wouldn't hurt either.) Click the green "add" button to post them here.

Explain your vote in the comments below. Friendly heckling allowed.

For a Giants schedule, click here. For the A's, click here.

Both schedules are attached as PDFs. You can also download schedules directly into your online calendar program from the team websites.

Play ball!

If the city council likes fake plastic nature, then let them saran-wrap their own yards! LEAVE OURRead More PARKS ALONE!! This is soccer special interest pressure on city government at its worst, and the city council appears unwilling or unable to withstand it. Crestview Park is a particularly quiet, serene, simple park with lovely views which the council now wants to turn into a sports arena. Any day you can go there and see families playing on the grass, toddlers and moms enjoying picnics and play time, kids learning to ride their bikes on the nice flat paved area, athletes and older folks enjoying the flat natural track (the only one in San Carlos) to get in shape, teens throwing frisbees on the lawn. It is a perfect place for ALL residents to enjoy according to their needs, not a sports arena dedicated to one activity at the expense of all. Belmont faced a similar lack of sports venues, but they did not choose to pave paradise. They wisely raised money and built a sports complex and spared their beautiful parks for use by ALL residents. I would like to see our city council do the right thing also. And by the way, the opposition to this short-sighted plan is far more than "some residents"! Please visit our booth at Hometown Days.

One summer my kid had soccer camp on at an artificial turf field. It was terrible. It madeRead More everything hotter and very uncomfortable. I had to pull my kid out of camp early because of it. I do not think it is better for the environment OR for kids. Just go to any turf field and try to walk across it on a hot day. Try to go barefoot on it (good luck!) We have been told not to microwave plastic containers because of BPA and bad chemicals that can cause cancer. What about heating up plastic grass and running around on it, breathing the fumes that come off it?? How is that any different?

Artificial turf is appropriate for dedicated use sports venues, not for multi-use city parks.

Thanks for doing this. The one blatant thing I observe on a daily basis is the number and frequencyRead More of deputy's at Starbucks on 800 laurel street and the sky kitchen. I never see them in the neighborhoods. The police department was much better
