This was checked on 5/14 so about 2 days priors to departure. Needless to say I am not flying UA..... pretty crazy.
Looking now for today, there are ~12 seats total for sale on UA LAX-SFO (all day) so I assume you saw full Y or close to it. Unlike many other short-haul markets UA of course competes O&D on SFO-LAX but not going to give the last seat on what could be a long-haul connection for a song.
