In 1970, a 13-year old named Debbi Sivyer started working for the Oakland A’s as one of the first-ever ball girls. Her job was simple: to retrieve foul balls down the third-base line at all Oakland home games. But, Sivyer soon began serving refreshments to the umpires as a part of her duties, a hobby that eventually grew into a business, partially funded by her ball-girl earnings. She opened a cookie store in 1977, and eventually became the world-famous Mrs. Fields.

“I feel like the Oakland A’s played such a big role in who I am today. Who knew that I was going to end up being Mrs. Fields?” — Debbie Fields Rose
