Athletics Preview Vegas Baseball

The Oakland Athletics are making their big Vegas debut — but not in their shiny new stadium yet. Instead, they’re playing home games in Sacramento’s minor-league park, a whopping 550 miles from the Strip, before their 2028 ballpark opens. This week, they’re giving Vegas a taste with a series against the Brewers and Rockies — at the Triple-A Las Vegas Aviators’ ballpark — marking the first regular-season baseball in Vegas since 1996. It’s a bold, unusual step toward building their new city’s baseball identity — even if fans have to drive a bit farther than expected.
