The Athletics will leave Oakland after this season and play temporarily at a minor league park near Sacramento until their planned new stadium in Las Vegas is built.
The Oakland Athletics take batting practice before opening day baseball game at the Coliseum in Oakland, Calif., on Thursday, March 28, 2024. A group of fans and protesters gather in the parking lot outside the Oakland Coliseum before the Oakland Athletics played against the Cleveland Guardians in a baseball game on opening day, Thursday, March 28, 2024, in Oakland, Calif. The announced attendance was 13,522 — about half of the crowd at last year’s home opener of 26,805.
“We explored several locations for a temporary home, including the Oakland Coliseum,” owner John Fisher said in a statement. “Even with the long-standing relationship and good intentions on all sides in the negotiations with Oakland, the conditions to achieve an agreement seemed out of reach. We understand the disappointment this news brings to our fans, as this season marks our final one in Oakland.
