Oakland Mayor Could Demand A’s Renounce Team Name, per Report

The rift between the Athletics and the city of Oakland continues to fester as the franchise plans an eventual relocation to Las Vegas. That potential move comes after years of unsuccessful talks between the two sides over a potential new stadium.

The A’s reached an agreement in May to build a $1.5 billion stadium along the Las Vegas Strip.

However, if the A’s do indeed move to Las Vegas, they will need a place to play until their new home in Nevada is completed. The venue is unlikely to be finished until at least 2028.
