Beginning in early 1900s Philadelphia, the Oakland Athletics have posted an impressive legacy in their long history. Nine World-Series-wins top it off, with 15 Pennants and 14 Western Division titles making for an outstanding record. The A’s century-long reign of supremacy continues with a vibrant and young team that has yet to reach its prime but is already one of the best ball clubs in the MLB.
The big bat of Jack Cust leads an outstanding offense with Emil Brown, Mark Ellis, Bobby Crosby, and Daric Barton smacking both the deep ball, line drives, and infield hits. Joe Blanton, Rich Harden, Dana Eveland, Keith Foulke, and Huston Street put up the Ks inning after inning. Manager Rob Green puts everything together and looks to continue the success he had in the Dominican Republic, where he won three championships.
The Oakland Athletics play in the AL West, which is wide open for the A’s to seize the division title with the Seattle Mariners, Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, and the Texas Rangers standing tin their way. In addition to their division opponents, the Oakland Athletics also must deal with perennial powerhouses the New York Yankees, Boston Red Sox, along with the rising Tampa Bay Rays will also be a difficult obstacle to overcome.
Legendary NFL and MLB stadium McAfee Coliseum serves as the home field for the Oakland Athletics. Though built for both sports, McAfee Coliseum still offers an intimate setting to catch Oakland A’s action.
