(West Sacramento, CA) — The former Oakland Athletics are now officially known as just “the Athletics.” The name change was made official on Monday, following the team’s departure from Oakland and ahead of its move to West Sacramento next season.
The A’s will temporarily call Sutter Health Park, a minor league stadium, their home for three seasons until they move to Las Vegas. The A’s branding, logos and other official forms of identification make no mention of Sacramento.
The A’s official abbreviation on scoreboards and television broadcasts will now be “ATH.” The A’s are also slightly changing their primary logo from all-yellow to all-green.
