The Oakland Athletics' move to Sacramento has sparked a range of opinions and actions among fans and commentators. All 30 MLB owners voted to allow the Sacramento-bound Athletics to relocate, a decision that columnist Scott Ostler described as a dark day for baseball. Despite the relocation, the team's efforts to build a relationship with skeptical Las Vegas residents through a few games have been met with skepticism. Fans have expressed their discontent, calling the move slimy and hypocritical. In an unusual turn of events, the Last Dive Bar Oakland Athletics fan group filed for the Las Vegas Athletics trademark, highlighting the unpredictable nature of the team's future.
