For decades, dating back to the late 1930s, players didn’t hit home runs at McClatchy High School. No, batters took off on a full-out sprint when deep shots bounced around the outfield, and sometimes they legged it out for an inside-the-park home run.

The Athletics returned to West Sacramento on Monday night, opening a three-game series against the San Diego Padres under cloudy skies at Sutter Health Park. An announced crowd of 9,502 watched as the Padres edged the A’s 5-4, extending Oakland’s search for a first home victory. The temperature for the first pitch was 66 degrees, a far cry from the blustery cold that added to the drudgery of an 18-3 loss in the March 31 opener.
