The Oakland Athletics have announced that they will be relocating to Sacramento until at least 2027, as their current stadium lease ends this year. The move will save A's fans a long trip back-and-forth from Oakland Coliseum.
Sacramento fans have never had a professional baseball team, but beginning next year, they will when the Oakland Athletics play there. The A's announced that they will move to the capital of California until at least 2027, as their current stadium lease ends this year, and they await their move to Las Vegas.
But despite over 100 miles and plenty time being saved, it doesn't matter to some. 'I will not watch them. I will not wear any green and gold,' Sacramento resident and A's fan Ray Perez, 36, told the New York Post. 'I used to go to 10-15 A’s games a year . . . I live two minutes away and I won’t be going to any.' 'The notion of supporting the A’s as the local team under these circumstances is unthinkable,' added Craig Merry.
