OAKLAND –First the Raiders, now the A’s?
Oakland’s baseball team found itself connected to Las Vegas on Friday with the report that Major League Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred had brought up Las Vegas a possible new home for either the A’s or the Tampa Bay Rays.
A’s management was quick to quell talk of an A’s move, reiterating that while the Raiders may be en route to Las Vegas, the A’s plans to announce the site and building schedule for a new Oakland baseball-only stadium remain on target.
“We’re building in Oakland,” team president Dave Kaval told the Bay Area News Group.
