Oakland Athletics Play Final Series at Coliseum with 5-4 Victory, Sellout Crowd Marks End of Era
Sep 26, 2024, 12:21 PM
The Oakland Athletics played their final series at the Oakland Coliseum, marking the end of an era for the city's last major professional sports team. The first game of the series saw Jacob Wilson hit a walk-off single, securing a 5-4 victory over the Texas Rangers. This win was the Athletics' 485th walk-off victory in their 58-year history in Oakland. Fans expressed their discontent with chants of 'Sell the Team' directed at the ownership. The final game featured ceremonial first pitches by A's legends Rickey Henderson and Dave Stewart, and the event drew a sellout crowd. Concession workers and other stadium employees faced uncertainty about their future as the team prepares to move. The departure of the Athletics follows the earlier exits of the Raiders and Warriors, leaving Oakland without a major professional sports team for the first time in decades.
