They simply go through athletics now, because the team previously stationed in Oakland will soon plant its roots in Las Vegas.
For the moment, the team plays its matches at Sutter Health Park, a minor league field in Sacramento, while the transition to Las Vegas continues to take its course. Consequently, there is a large part of the team’s fans base which remains unhappy with the property for having moved to Sin City instead of continuing to play in Oakland.
Well, a fan decided to publicize his presence during the team’s pre-match show Thursday before the match with the Minnesota Twins. He wore a t-shirt that said “sell”.

While the pre-match show was taking place, this fan was quickly faced with a safety goalkeeper at the Sutter Health Park, and more team and field managers quickly followed suit.
The whole thing was captured on live broadcasting.
Joe Horton identified himself on social networks as the man in question, and he noted that security had allowed him to stay at his headquarters for the game after talking with them. He said to Horrible Announcement, who had published the pre-match clips on X, that it was “not my first rodeo”.

“When they show up, I think all the time – you also know that it’s on television, right?” Horton responded on X.
Horton even had fun on X publishing a screenshot of himself in the background of the pre-match office surrounded by security and protection against white countries.

“Look how many friends I did today,” he legend the screenshot.
Fans like Horton remain checked by the owner of A John Fisher, who directs the move to Las Vegas. T-shirts, panels and similar flags were seen at the Oakland Coliseum last season when the team’s home matches started to decrease while the calendar ended.
Athletics will play Sacramento for at least the next two seasons, because the new team stadium in Las Vegas will not be ready before 2028 at the earliest.
Thus, fans like Horton continue to express their opinion on Fisher’s movements, and it is clear that a good part of the base of the fans wish him baseball. He does not seem inclined to do so.

Athletics remains a very young team with budding talents, notably Brent Rooker, Tyler Soderstrom, Jacob Wilson and Lawrence Butler, among others. There are 24-40s that enter Thursday, which is the last in the Al West division.
