Game Tuesday, May 15, Antiques Red vs. Giants

Share this post ...

We have another mid-week game this week. This is another makeup game from an earlier rainout.

Laney College, 7:30 game time, 6:45 show up time.

The entire field (including base-paths) is artificial turf.  They say any type of shoes (metal or rubber) can be used.  (If you have more than one pair of shoes, you might want to bring both to see which one works best.)  J

The baseball Field is at:   5th Ave & 8th Street, Oakland, Ca.  The best approach is from I-880. Here’s a Google Map.

Directions (from the South) from I-880

Take exit 40 for Embarcadero toward 5th Avenue  0.3 mi
Turn right onto Embarcadero 0.1 mi
Immediately Turn right onto 5th Ave
5th runs right into the Ball Field at 5th Ave and 8th Street.

 

Directions (from the North) from I-880

Take exit 1B for Jackson St 0.5 mi
Merge onto 5th St 69 ft
Turn left onto Jackson St 0.1 mi
Turn right onto 7th St 0.2 mi
Continue onto E 8th St  0.4 mi
Look for the Field on your left.
(Probably need to U-Turn at 5th Ave to get on the right side of the street.)

There is a parking lot behind center field, or you can park on the street behind right field.  The Baseball Field will be unlocked around 7PM, but the parking lot will be open before that.
