I had no idea about the Oakland B’s and I live here😵‍💫 Crazy and you are so right about how fans are treated I do know the Oakland Coliseum is a total mess and needs so much work 🥺 I think the city could have worked with the A’s and kept them here😖 The owners are heartless and think only about what works for them and could care less about the allegiance of loyal fans who have supported them for all these years😡

Thanks Mary Kay. Well in fairness, I just found out about the "B's" the day before I wrote this post, so don't feel too badly. The Coliseum is old, but there were other options open to the team. I really got the feeling MLB and A's ownership wanted them in Vegas. You hit the nail on the head, they don't care, it's all about the $$$s.

Click the link for the B's and get their updates, you can be my info person on them for future posts.

What a terrible shame that this move is definitely taking place! I know our family living in Southern California will certainly miss t he team! They were in attendance regularly! Yes, Dad would also be disappointed!

This makes me so angry!

I hope the new team the B's do well and are welcomed by the A's fans!

The bad feature is team owners have no loyalty to their fans. They only think of the money and how much more they can accumulate in Sin City!

Yes, I am angry, as no team is safe from being moved at this time in our lives. Baseball has changed and not all for the best!

Thank you for your post and for always thinking of baseball the way it was before owners got greedy!
