Listen for Tom Hanks' Voice Permanently Embedded in Oakland A's Stadium

Actor Tom Hanks got his start at the East Bay's Oakland stadium!

"Actor Tom Hanks, a Concord native, served as a peanut vendor for the A's during his youth. With the coronavirus pandemic keeping stadiums MLB empty for the 2020 season, the Coliseum now will be mixing Hanks' loudest hawking voice into the piped-in stadium sounds during home games in Oakland."
