Baseball Betting Lines

06/13/2007 - Oakland, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Oakland Athletics have extended the contracts of general manager Billy Beane and team president Michael Crowley through the 2014 season.

"Mike and Billy were my first free agent signings and both continue to demonstrate their talents as two of the finest executives in the sports industry today," said team owner Lew Wolff. "I am very pleased their relationship with the A's will continue during one of the most exciting and important times in our team's history."

Beane is considered one of the more innovative general managers in the game, able to build contenders with a moderate payroll. Since he took over the GM duties in October of 1997, the A's have compiled an 859-661 record, which is the third best record in the American League and fourth best in all of baseball during that time frame. The A's have reached the postseason five times in the last seven seasons with four American League West titles.

Crowley has been with the organization 10 years, nine as team president. His tenure is the second longest among those who have served in the same capacity since 1968.
