Tom Hanks on Oakland A’s ownership: ‘Damn them all to hell’

Could Tom Hanks swoop in to save the Oakland A’s and keep them in the East Bay? With a Las Vegas move looking likelier and likelier, no idea is too outlandish to consider.

While speaking at an event to promote his debut novel, the conversation turned to the A’s proposed move and Hanks sounded like he would have fit right in at the “reverse boycott.”

“We've lost the Raiders, the Warriors moved to San Francisco, and now they're going to take the A’s out of Oakland. Damn them all to hell,” said Hanks.
