The Oakland Athletics are a Major League Baseball team based in Oakland, California.
The Athletics are a member of the Western Division of Major League Baseball's American League.
From 1968 to the present, the Athletics have played in the Overstock.com Coliseum..
.
The "Athletics" name originates from the late 19th century "athletic clubs", specifically the Philadelphia Athletics baseball club.
They are most prominently nicknamed "the A's", in reference to the Gothic script "A", a trademark of the team and the old Athletics of Philadelphia.
This has gained very prominent use, and in some circles is used more frequently than the full "Athletics" name.
They are also known as "the White Elephants" or simply "the Elephants", in reference to then New York Giants' manager John McGraw's calling the team a "white elephant".[1] This was embraced by the team, who then made a white elephant the team's mascot, and often incorporated it into the logo or sleeve patches.
During the team's 1970s heyday, management often referred to the team as The Swingin' A's, referencing both their prodigious power and to connect the team with the growing disco culture..
.
One of the American League's eight charter franchises, the club was founded in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in 1901 as the Philadelphia Athletics.
The team had some prominent success in Philadelphia, winning three of four World Series from 1910 to 1914 (the "First Dynasty") and two in a row in 1929 and 1930 (the "Second Dynasty").
The team's owner and manager for its first 50 years was Connie Mack, and its Hall-of-Fame players included Chief Bender, Frank "Home Run" Baker, Jimmie Foxx and Lefty Grove.
After two decades of decline, however, the team left Philadelphia for Kansas City in 1955 and became the Kansas City Athletics.
After 13 mostly uneventful seasons in the Midwest, the team moved to Oakland in 1968.
There a "Third Dynasty" soon emerged, with three World Championships in a row from 1972 to 1974 led by players including Catfish Hunter and Reggie Jackson, and colorful owner Charlie O.
Finley.
Finally, a "Fourth Dynasty" won three consecutive pennants and the 1989 World Series behind Mark McGwire, Jose Canseco and Dennis Eckersley..
.
In more recent years, the A's have often been playoff contenders but have not returned to the World Series since 1990.
They have become known for the efforts of general manager Billy Beane to get maximum value out of limited financial resources, as described in the widely-read book Moneyball..

[edit] Origins[edit] Origin of the team nameThe Athletics' name originated in the term "Athletic Club" for local gentlemen's clubs—dates to 1860 when an amateur team, the Athletic (Club) of Philadelphia, was formed.
(A famous image from that era, published in Harper's Weekly in 1866, shows the Athletic players dressed in uniforms displaying the familiar blackletter "A" on the front).
The team later turned professional through 1875, becoming a charter member of the National League in 1876, but were expelled from the N.L.
after one season.
A later version of the Athletics played in the American Association from 1882–1891..
.
The team name is typically pronounced "Ath-LET-ics", but their longtime team owner/manager Connie Mack called them by the old-fashioned colloquial Irish pronunciation "Ath-uh-LET-ics".[citation needed] Newspaper writers also often referred to the team as the Mackmen during their Philadelphia days, in honor of their patriarch..
.
[edit] Uniform EmblemThrough the seasons, the Athletics' uniforms have usually paid homage to their amateur forebears to some extent.
Until 1954, when the uniforms had "Athletics" spelled out in script across the front, the team's name never appeared on either home or road uniforms.
Furthermore, not once did "Philadelphia" appear on the uniform, nor did the letter "P" appear on the cap or the uniform.
The typical Philadelphia uniform had only an "A" on the left front, and likewise the cap usually had the same "A" on it.
In the early days of the American League, the standings listed the club as "Athletic" rather than "Philadelphia", in keeping with the old tradition.
Eventually, the city name came to be used for the team, as with the other major league clubs..
.
Though for a time as a Kansas City team, the "A"s wore "Kansas City" on their road jerseys and an interlocking "KC" on the cap, upon moving to Oakland the "A" cap emblem was restored, although in 1970 an "apostrophe-s" was added to the cap and uniform emblem to reflect the fact that then-team owner Charles O.
Finley was in the process of officially changing the team's name to the "A's.".
.
Also while in Kansas City, owner Charles O.
Finley changed the team's colors from their traditional red, white and blue to what he termed "Kelly Green, Wedding Gown White and Fort Knox Gold." It was also here that he began experimenting with dramatic uniforms to match these bright colors, such as gold sleeveless tops with green undershirts and gold pants.
The innovative uniforms only increased after the team's move to Oakland, which also came at the time of the introduction of polyester pullover uniforms.
During their dynasty years in the 1970s, the A's had dozens of uniform combinations with jerseys and pants in all three team colors, and in fact did not wear the traditional gray on the road, instead wearing green or gold, which helped to contribute to their nickname of "The Swingin' A's." After the team's sale to the Haas family, the team began a move back to more traditional uniforms..
.
Currently, the team wears home uniforms with "Athletics" spelled out in script writing and road uniforms with "Oakland" spelled out in script writing, with the cap logo consisting of the traditional "A" with "apostrophe-s." The home cap is green with a gold bill and white lettering, while the road cap is all green with gold lettering..
.
The nickname "A's" has long been used interchangeably with "Athletics," dating to the team's early days when headline writers wanted a way to shorten the name.
From 1972 through 1980, the team nickname was officially "Oakland A's," although, during that time, the Commissioner's Trophy, given out annually to the winner of baseball's world series, still listed the team's name as the "Oakland Athletics" on the gold-plated pennant representing the Oakland franchise.
According to Bill Libby's Book, Charlie O and the Angry A's, owner Charlie O.
Finley banned the word "Athletics" from the club's name because he felt that name was too closely associated with former Philadelphia Athletics owner Connie Mack, and he wanted the name "Oakland A's" to become just as closely associated with himself.
The name also vaguely suggested the name of the old minor league Oakland Oaks, which were alternatively called the "Acorns." New owner Walter Haas restored the official name to "Athletics" in 1981, but retained the nickname "A's" for marketing purposes.
At first, the word "Athletics" was restored only to the club's logo, underneath the much larger stylized-"A" that had come to represent the team since the early days.
By 1987, however, the word returned, in script lettering, to the front of the team's jerseys..
.
The A's are the only MLB team to wear white cleats, both at home and on the road, another tradition dating back to the Finley ownership..
.
[edit] Elephant MascotAfter New York Giants' manager John McGraw told reporters that Philadelphia manufacturer Benjamin Shibe, who owned the controlling interest in the new team, had a "white elephant on his hands," Mack defiantly adopted the white elephant as the team mascot, and presented McGraw with a stuffed toy elephant at the start of the 1905 World Series.
McGraw and Mack had known each other for years, and McGraw accepted it graciously.
By 1909, the A's were wearing an elephant logo on their sweaters, and in 1918 it turned up on the regular uniform jersey for the first time.
Over the years the elephant has appeared in several different colors.
It is currently forest green.
The A’s are still sometimes, though infrequently, referred to as the "Elephants" or "White Elephants.".
.
The elephant was retired as team mascot in 1963 by then-owner Charles O.
Finley in favor of a Missouri mule (it was also rumored to have been done by Finley in order to attract fans from the then heavily Democratic constituents of Missouri by replacing the traditional Republican mascot to one associated with Democrats).
In 1988, the elephant was restored as the symbol of the Athletics and currently adorns the left sleeve of home and road uniforms.
The Elephant Mascot returned briefly in the mid-'80s, under the name Harry Elephante.
In 1997, the elephant returned, taking its current form: Stomper..
.
[edit] Franchise historyMain article: History of the Oakland Athletics.
The history of the Athletics Major League Baseball franchise spans the period from 1901 to the present day, having begun in Philadelphia before moving to Kansas City in 1955 and then to its current home in Oakland, California in 1968..
.
[edit] StadiumThe Overstock.com Coliseum was originally built as a multi-purpose facility.
Louisiana Superdome officials pursued negotiations with Athletics officials during the 1978–1979 baseball off-season about moving the Athletics to the Superdome in New Orleans.
The Athletics were unable to break their lease at the Coliseum, and remained in Oakland.[2].
.
After the Oakland Raiders football team moved to Los Angeles in 1982, many improvements were made to what was suddenly a baseball-only facility.
The 1994 movie Angels in the Outfield was filmed in part at the Coliseum, filling in for Anaheim Stadium..
.
Then, in 1995, a deal was struck whereby the Raiders would move back to Oakland for the 1995 season.
The agreement called for the expansion of the Coliseum to 63,026 seats.
The bucolic view of the Oakland foothills that baseball spectators enjoyed was replaced with a jarring view of an outfield grandstand contemptuously referred to as "Mount Davis" after Raiders' owner Al Davis.
Because construction was not finished by the start of the 1996 season, the Athletics were forced to play their first six-game homestand at 9,300-seat Cashman Field in Las Vegas.[3].
.
Although official capacity was stated to be 43,662 for baseball, seats were sometimes sold in Mount Davis as well, pushing "real" capacity to the area of 60,000.
The ready availability of tickets on game day made season tickets a tough sell, while crowds as high as 30,000 often seemed sparse in such a venue.
On December 21, 2005, the Athletics announced that seats in the Coliseum's third deck would not be sold for the 2006 season, but would instead be covered with a tarp, and that tickets would no longer be sold in Mount Davis under any circumstances.
That effectively reduced capacity to 34,077, making the Coliseum the smallest stadium in Major League Baseball..
.
The Athletics are one of only two MLB teams in the United States still sharing a stadium with an NFL team, the other being the Florida Marlins, who share Sun Life Stadium with the Miami Dolphins.
By 2012, the A's will be the only American team sharing their facility, due to the Marlins' move into their new ballpark at the former site of the Orange Bowl.
This does not include Toronto's Rogers Centre, which the Blue Jays share with the Canadian Football League's Toronto Argonauts, and which is also used by the Buffalo Bills on occasion..
.
[edit] New stadium proposalsMain article: Cisco Field.
Since the mid 2000s the A's have been in talks with Oakland and other Northern California cities about building a new baseball-only stadium.
The planned stadium, Cisco Field, was originally intended to be built in Fremont, California (a location that has since been abandoned), and there were talks about it remaining in Oakland, and current talks about building it in San Jose..
.
Additionally there have been some proposals about moving the team to Sacramento and renovating that city's Minor League stadium..
.
[edit] FremontAfter the city of Oakland failed to make any progress toward a stadium, the A's began contemplating a move to the Warm Springs district of suburban Fremont.
Fremont is about 25 miles south of Oakland; many nearby residents are already a part of the current Athletics fanbase..
.
On November 7, 2006, many media sources announced the Athletics would be leaving Oakland as early as 2010 for a new stadium in Fremont, confirmed the next day by the Fremont City Council.
The team would have played in what was planned to be called Cisco Field, a 32,000-seat, baseball-only facility.[4] The proposed ballpark would have been part of a larger "ballpark village" which would have included retail and residential development.
On February 24, 2009, however, Lew Wolff released an open letter regarding the end of his efforts to relocate the A's to Fremont.[5].
.
[edit] SacramentoIf negotiations within the Bay Area fail, Sacramento is considered a possible destination for the team.[6] Sacramento is the home of the team's AAA affiliate, the River Cats.
The River Cats' stadium, Raley Field, would need significant construction to increase seating capacity to accommodate a major league team, but would probably not need to be demolished.[7].
.
[edit] San JoseAs of February 26, 2009 the city of San Jose was expected to open negotiations with the team.
Although parcels of land south of Diridon Station are being acquired by the city as a stadium site, the San Francisco Giants' claim on Santa Clara County as part of their home territory would have to be dealt with before any agreement could be made.[8].
.
By August 2010, San Jose was "aggressively wooing" A's owner Lew Wolff.
Wolff referred to San Jose as the teams "best option", but Major League Baseball Commissioner Bud Selig said he would wait on a report on whether the team could move to the area because of the Giants conflict.[9].
.
In September 2010, 75 Silicon Valley CEOs drafted and signed a letter to Bud Selig urging a timely approval of the move to San Jose.[10].
.
[edit] Rivals[edit] Los Angeles Angels of AnaheimThe Angels have emerged as the principal rival of the A's due to the traditional animosity between Northern and Southern California and the great talent and farm systems of both clubs which have led to countless[citation needed] one-run contests.
While the A's have been a member of the American League since 1901, the Angels, as well as their other divisional rivals, are of a more recent vintage.
The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim date from 1961, as do the Texas Rangers (but only since 1972 as a Dallas-Fort Worth team; the Rangers were the second incarnation of the expansion Washington Senators, who played in the nation's capital from 1961–71 and replaced the original Washington Senators, who played from 1901–60 before becoming the Minnesota Twins).
The Seattle Pilots existed for one season, 1969, before becoming the Milwaukee Brewers, and the Seattle Mariners were organized in 1977..
.
[edit] San Francisco GiantsSee also: Bay Bridge Series.
The Bay Bridge Series is the name of a series games played between—and the rivalry of—the A's and San Francisco Giants of the National League.
The series takes its name from the San Francisco – Oakland Bay Bridge which links the cities of Oakland and San Francisco.
Although competitive, the regional rivalry between the A's and Giants is considered a friendly one with mostly mutual companionship between the fans, as opposed to White Sox–Cubs, or Yankees–Mets games where animosity runs high.
Hats displaying both teams on the cap are sold from vendors at the games, and once in a while the teams both dress in uniforms from an historic era of their franchises..
.
The series is also occasionally referred to as the "BART Series" for the Bay Area Rapid Transit system that links Oakland to San Francisco.
However, the name "BART Series" has never been popular beyond a small selection of history books and national broadcasters and has fallen out of favor.
Bay Area locals almost exclusively refer to the rivalry as the "Bay Bridge Series"..
.
Originally, the term described a series of exhibition games played between the two clubs after the conclusion of spring training, immediately prior to the start of the regular season.
It was first used to refer to the 1989 World Series in which the Athletics won their most recent championship and the first time both teams had met since they moved to the San Francisco Bay Area.
Today, it also refers to games played between the teams during the regular season since the commencement of interleague play in 1997.
Through 2010, the A's have won 42 games, and the Giants have won 38.[11].
.
[edit] Minnesota TwinsThe A's have a history with the Minnesota Twins as well.
Between 1987–92, the A's and Twins combined to win six consecutive American League West titles and reach the World Series five times.
Oakland finished second to Minnesota in 1987, while the Twins placed second to the Division champion A's the following year.
Recent events that have taken place between the A's and the Minnesota Twins suggest a renewing of an old rivalry.
In 2002 the Twins snapped the A's 20-game win streak.
The Twins also beat the heavily favored A's that year in the ALDS.
The A's got revenge in 2006 when they swept the favored Twins out of the post season, defeating their two-time Cy Young ace Johan Santana in Game One en route to a 3–0 series win in the AL Divisional round..
.
[edit] Philadelphia PhilliesSee also: City Series (Philadelphia).
The City Series was the name of a series of baseball games played between the Athletics and the Philadelphia Phillies of the National League that ran from 1903 through 1955.
After the A's move to Kansas City in 1955, the City Series rivalry came to an end.
The teams have since faced each other in Interleague play (since its introduction in 1997) but the rivalry has effectively died in the intervening years since the A's left Philadelphia..
.
The first City Series was held in 1883 between the Phillies and the American Association Philadelphia Athletics.[12] When the Athletics first joined the American League, the two teams played each other in a spring and fall series.
No City Series was held in 1901 and 1902 due to legal warring between the National League and American League..

No A's player from the Philadelphia era has his number retired by the organization.
Though Jackson and Hunter played small portions of their careers in Kansas City, no player that played the majority of his years in the Kansas City era has his number retired either.
As of 2009, the A's have retired only the numbers of members of the Hall of Fame who played large portions of their careers in Oakland..

[edit] Athletics in the Philadelphia Baseball Wall of FameSee: Members of the Philadelphia Baseball Wall of Fame.
The Athletics have made no public recognition of Philadelphia Athletics players at the Overstock.com Coliseum.
From 1978 to 2003 (except 1983), however, the Philadelphia Phillies inducted one former Athletic (and one former Phillie) each year into the Philadelphia Baseball Wall of Fame at the then-existing Veterans Stadium.
In March 2004, after Veterans Stadium was replaced by the new Citizens Bank Park, the Athletics' plaques[15] were relocated to the Philadelphia Athletics Historical Society[16][17] in Hatboro, Pennsylvania, and a single plaque listing all of the A's inductees[18] was attached to a statue of Connie Mack that is located across the street from Citizens Bank Park.[19].
