Oakland A’s fans are excited about their team in games but will be waving goodbye for their last home game of the season on Thu Sep 26, 2024 before they move to Sacramento for the 2025 season (KQED 9 photo)

On Oakland A’s podcast with Augie Mesenburg:

It’s a sad story here at the Oakland Coliseum knowing the end was coming and we lived it here. The reverse boycott, the Last Dive Bar, the Oakland 68s. Back in April and May you just try watch these young players develop.

I got to see a lot of these players come into their own this season and that had to be encouraging in terms of next season. As you can imagine we’ve seen the protests and on Tuesday night when the Texas Rangers played the A’s. Fans once again chanting “Sell the Team” in the stands but only to fall on deaf ears as the A’s are Sacramento bound after the 2025 season is completed.

Augie also shared the memories of covering the A’s over the years watching the A’s three consecutive Championship teams from 1972-1974, the A’s three consecutive American League Championships 1988-90, and the A’s 20 game win streak in 2002.
