The Athletics' relocation from Oakland to Las Vegas has been met with skepticism and ridicule, particularly highlighted during their home opener at Sutter Health Park. The press conference setup resembled a makeshift shed rather than a professional sports venue, leading to various humorous comparisons. On the field, the team suffered a dismal 18-3 loss to the Chicago Cubs. Amidst the game's humiliation, fans continued to voice discontent with chants about selling the team, indicating ongoing frustration regarding the relocation.
The Athletics aren't going to be getting any sort of benefit of the doubt when it comes to their unpopular exit from Oakland.
Monday was the first game that the A's played in their new home ballpark - and it did not go well on the field, either.
Cubs catcher Carson Kelly hit for the cycle and Chicago destroyed the A's, 18-3.
Oakland is a very special place for me. I feel for the fans of Oakland, said Cubs second baseman Nico Hoerner.
