“The Final Inning in Oakland: Should Fans Shoulder the Blame?”
In today’s episode of Locked On A’s, we tackle one of the most contentious questions surrounding the Oakland Athletics’ relocation to Las Vegas: should the A’s ownership, fans, or even the city of Oakland shoulder any blame for the team’s move?

The only two parties that deserve blame are the ownership group and the city.
When the ownership sells off core players all the time doesn't invest in the team, hasn't gone after top free agents, doubles ticket prices, takes away perks……and you want to put the blame on the fans???? BULLSHT!
