The city of Oakland California has a special and unique place in sports history.

The town that is in the shadow of the more popular and affluent San Francisco actually has more in common with blue collar, gritty cities of the east such as Cleveland, Philadelphia and Pittsburgh.

In this edition of the Historically Speaking Sports Podcast, host Dana Auguster highlights the names, events and great games that made Oakland a great sports city whose days are numbered with the impending move of the Athletics to Las Vegas.

Later in the show, we will count down the five greatest sports moments that took place in the city of Oakland such as the "Heidi Game", Game 7 1975 Western Finals, and the game that sportswriters called "Super Bowl 8 1/2 but ended up being nicknamed "The Sea of Hands".

Calling that game on the radio was legendary Hall of Fame broadcaster Bill King. In the final segment of the show, we will send a shout out to this great sportscaster that became an idol of mine and one that inspired me to get into broadcasting.
