The Oakland Athletics are trading the Bay Area for a temporary home in Sacramento, announcing a three-year lease at Sutter Health Park starting in 2025. The team will share the stadium with the Sacramento River Cats, a Triple-A affiliate of the San Francisco Giants, while their Las Vegas Strip ballpark is under construction.
Owner John Fisher called the park \"the most intimate ballpark in Major League Baseball\" during a press conference, teasing future home runs from stars like Aaron Judge. The deal includes a potential fourth-year extension if the Vegas venue isn’t ready by 2028. 🎉
While the move ends the Athletics’ 57-year Oakland era, it opens a new chapter for fans in Northern California and sets the stage for a glitzy Las Vegas debut. Will this bridge the gap between loyal supporters and the team’s ambitions? Let’s play ball! 🙌
