From T.R. Sullivan's column in the Star-Telegram:

The Rangers aren't the only ones who have complained about the unruly fans at Oakland's Network Associates Coliseum. Others around the American League are saying much of the same things.

"I've had a couple of run-in with fans there myself," Detroit Tigers bullpen coach Lance Parrish told Booth Newspapers. "It's the things they say, the profanity they use. You get concerned about the kids."

Angels reliever Troy Percival told the Los Angeles Times that he's had beer and peanuts and a cup of "yellow foul-smelling liquid" thrown at him.

"The fans are right on top of you in Oakland, and they're probably the most outgoingly obnoxious fans in the league," Percival said.
