Thursday marked completion of a period as the Oakland Athletics played their last video game at the Oakland Coliseum.
The A’s, who have actually called the Coliseum home considering that 1968, will invest the next 3 seasons dipping into Sutter Health Park, a Triple-An arena in Sacramento, before eventually transferring to Las Vegas for the 2028 season.
While the Athletics’ last season in Oakland as a whole wasn’t effective, the A’s a minimum of ended things on a favorable note, beating the Texas Rangers 3-2 in front of a sold-out crowd. Oakland still has another series to play this season, however it will happen on the roadway versus the Seattle Mariners.
The A’s last week at the Coliseum saw fans gathering to the ballpark to see their preferred group play one last time while getting mementos, whether that be a handful of dirt or some seats. On Thursday, fans commemorated completion of a period and the historical place.

The last ever pitch at the Oakland Coliseum clocks in at 104 miles per hour. Video game’s altered.
