The Oakland Athletics baseball team will be playing in Sacramento for the next three seasons before relocating to Las Vegas in 2028. They will share Sutter Health Park with the Sacramento River Cats, the Triple A affiliate of the San Francisco Giants. The A's will drop the use of the city moniker and be known simply as the Athletics or the A's. The team plans to open a new ballpark in Las Vegas in 2028, with the option to extend their lease in Sacramento if the Las Vegas ballpark is not completed on time. This move marks the end of the team's time in Oakland, which has caused backlash among fans. The A's intend to make their final year in Oakland a celebratory send-off with lower ticket prices, promotions, and celebrations. The team had explored the possibility of extending their lease at the Coliseum in Oakland but was unable to reach an agreement with the city. The A's departure will make Oakland lose three professional sports teams in the last five years. The team's television deal with NBC Sports California required them to play in the Bay Area, but NBCSC renegotiated the agreement to provide coverage for the A's in Sacramento. The A's have secured public funding for a new ballpark in Las Vegas, and the team owner, John Fisher, will cover the remaining costs. [Extracted from the article] |
