National reporters and media personalities express strong disapproval on social media regarding the Oakland Athletics' relocation to Sacramento, criticizing greed and MLB's role in the decision.
Oakland Athletics fans hold up signs during the game against the Texas Rangers at the Coliseum in Oakland, Calif., on Thursday, Sept. 26, 2024. The Oakland Athletics played their final home game in Oakland before moving to Sacramento next season. There are very few things that can unite voices across the media landscape. The A’s departure from Oakland is one of those few things.
“The passionate, emotional goodbyes from those who love the team are to be expected, but ask yourself this: Have you heard even a single, dissenting voice outside of Oakland? Anyone saying, ‘This is a great idea, you’ve got it all wrong, this John Fisher guy, you got it wrong, he’s a great guy.’ I haven’t. This, right here, this is just the worst of what sports can be. Heart goes out to you A’s fans.”: “It’s weird to me that I find this as emotional as I do. I’m not from Oakland at all.
: “None of these fans, none of these players, ballpark workers, broadcasters, postgame guys – none of these people are done with Oakland. Shame on John Fisher and MLB for not giving them and future generations more A’s baseball.”: “What remains a total mystery is why the other owners in baseball stand by as the A’s debacle plays out, and they don’t do anything. And the situation will continue to be an embarrassment for them all, as the team moves to a minor-league park. It’s mind-boggling.
