"A's Transition: From Oakland to Sacramento's Sutter Health Park"

The Oakland A's will temporarily relocate to Sacramento and play at Sutter Health Park rent-free for at least three seasons before moving to Las Vegas.

"A's Fans Plan Reverse Boycott Amid Ownership Controversy"

Oakland Athletics fans are planning a "reverse boycott" to protest the team's ownership and show their support for the team. The Athletics have the worst record and attendance in baseball, and owner John Fisher and president Dave Kaval are trying to secure taxpayer-funded handouts to build a new stadium in Las Vegas. The reverse boycott will take place during Tuesday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays, and fans will wear "SELL" t-shirts and attend a pregame tailgate. The Athletics will donate the night's ticket revenue to the Alameda County Community Food Bank and the Oakland Public Education Fund.

Blame game: Oakland A's leaving for Las Vegas.

The Oakland A's are moving to Las Vegas, and fans are looking for someone to blame. Yahoo Sports has constructed a blame list, with Athletics owner John Fisher and former co-owner Lewis Wolff at the top for their years-long campaign to move the team out of Oakland and their failure to make upgrades on the crumbling Oakland Coliseum. A's president Dave Kaval is also blamed for being Fisher's mouthpiece and executing his orders. MLB commissioner Rob Manfred is criticized for prioritizing the satisfaction of club owners over the fans. The city of Oakland is blamed for not providing enough public financing for the Howard Terminal project. A's fans are left with a gaping hole in their hearts.
