We are celebrating the 50th anniversary of the 1973 Oakland A's ball club this week with our guest Nancy Finley.  The A's won the World Series 3 consecutive years (1972-1974), and Nancy was a part of these seasons.  Nancy is the daughter of GM Carl Finley and the niece of owner Charlie Finley.  She shares stories about those years, along with the rebuilding of the A's in the early 1980s.  Nancy also wrote a book entitled Finley Ball, which focuses on the years starting with Kansas City, the move to Oakland, and culminating with the three world championships.
