<p>Here's the story about Candlestick when it was built and how if they'd just come out there in the afternoon they never would've built there.</p>

<p>The first time I took my husband to San Francisco, was over the July 4th weekend. We lived in Texas where it was HOT. We stayed in Danville most of the trip, but a couple of nights in San Francisco. We saw the Giants at Candlestick, where I grew up going, changed from shorts and sandles to heavy winter garb and back to shorts before we left the parking lot. As it turned it out it was 90 the week we were there. My husband could not believe the difference. It was fun, but COLD. I know…</p>

<p>I have done this before with a rental car - but that was when the Giants were still at Candlestick. You may not appreciate this yet but going from day game in SF to night game in OAK is probably nicer than the reverse. For the trip I made in the mid 1990's [late May], day game in Oak...t-shirt & shorts. Beautiful day. Drove to The Stick, put on jeans and a sweatshirt...and a jacket...and froze. I still have the Giants scarf I bought that night.</p>

<p>I didn't do it in the same day but it would be easy with the times you listed above. I took the fairy from San Fran to Oakland and it was great! The only challenge was finding transportation from the drop-off spot in Oakland to the ballpark as there wasn't cabs present. We ended up calling a cab. </p>

<p>it is about a 30 minute drive. BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit) system is quicker if you don't want to drive.</p>
<p>that's the June 14th games. We are thinking about that trip too.</p>
