Athletics to Temporarily Play at Sutter Health Park in West Sacramento from 2025-2027

The Oakland Athletics have found a temporary home in Sacramento, as they announced a partnership with Sacramento Kings owner Vivek Ranadive to play at Sutter Health Park from 2025 through at least 2027. This agreement comes after the A’s current lease at the Oakland Coliseum expires following the 2024 MLB season.

The news was met with excitement as A’s owner John Fisher expressed his gratitude towards Ranadive and the Sacramento community during a press conference at Sutter Health Park. Fisher praised the beautiful ballpark and expressed his enthusiasm for the next three years of playing in Sacramento.

The decision to play in Sacramento comes after the A’s met with officials from the city of Oakland and Alameda County to try to work out a Coliseum lease extension. With the move to Sutter Health Park, MLB stars like Aaron Judge, Shohei Ohtani, and Mike Trout will now have Sacramento on their travel itinerary for the next three seasons.

Vivek Ranadive, who has shown a commitment to bringing professional sports to Sacramento through his ownership of the Kings and River Cats, expressed his excitement for hosting Major League Baseball at Sutter Health Park. The A’s planned move to Las Vegas in 2028 still has hurdles to clear, but for now, they have a home in Sacramento.

Overall, the partnership between the A’s and Vivek Ranadive marks a new chapter for professional sports in Sacramento and provides fans with the opportunity to watch some of the greatest players in baseball in a beautiful and intimate ballpark setting.
