OAKLAND, Calif. - Lifelong Athletics fan and Oakland native Amelia Schimmel is the club’s new public address announcer, replacing the late Dick Callahan. The Orioles also called up Adrienne Roberson from the minors to serve as PA announcer during the shortened 2020 season. “We were fortunate to have the warm and welcoming voice of Dick Callahan echo throughout the Coliseum for 15 years. She served as guest PA announcer during the coronavirus-shortened 2020 season as Callahan opted out for health reasons during the pandemic. I never thought in my wildest dreams that I would become the PA announcer for my favourite team.
