From Johan Cruyff to the A’s: Andy Dolich’s Sports Journey
Andy Dolich, a renowned sports executive, shares insights from a groundbreaking career in today’s episode. From creating the first sports management program at Ohio University to boosting attendance for the Washington Diplomats with soccer legends like Johan Cruyff, Dolich recounts the milestones of his journey. “Sports is part of our society,” Dolich says. “60, 70, 80 thousand people can come together, have their differences, root for their countries, and when the game is over ... get along. We can use more of that today.” His time with the Oakland A’s saw attendance rise from 300 to 16,000 season ticket holders, culminating in the 1989 World Series win against the Giants despite the challenges of the Loma Prieta earthquake. “It is sports that really helps bring people together,” he notes. Reflecting on teamwork, leadership, and trust, Dolich also discusses his unsuccessful 1999 bid to buy the A’s.
