That Matier & Ross column yesterday in the Chronicle reporting that a couple of unnamed parties had expressed interest in buying the Oakland A’s understandably created a stir. There’s just one problem, according to A’s co-owner Lew Wolff: the team isn’t for sale.
Add: Wolff, reached by phone in Arizona, tells the Oakland Trib: “It’s not for sale, but no one has contacted me. Someone made that story up, I think.”
