Oakland Athletics History

The Oakland A's can trace their roots all the way back to the foundation of the American League in 1901. They were originally based in Philadelphia and were the major rival to the cross town Phillies. In the early years, under legendary owner and manager, Connie Mack, the A's would dominate the baseball scene in this city. They would move twice, once to Kansas City, before finally coming to Oakland in 1968.

As far as other baseball organizations are concerned, the Athletics club is the third most successful baseball team in Major League history. All told, the Athletics have racked up nine world championships, fifteen Pennants in the American league, and fourteen division titles spanning back to the original club in Philadelphia. Few teams can boast numbers as only the Yankees and Cardinals have more titles.

There have been many great players to come through the Athletic organization over their time in the MLB. Connie Mack is still a name that everyone immediately associates with this franchise. Other names of note during their time on top of the league are Reggie Jackson, Rickey Henderson, Catfish Hunter, Rollie Fingers, and Dennis Eckersley.

Other Oakland Teams

Other professional sports franchises located in Oakland are the Raiders and the Golden State Warriors. The Warriors are actually split between the bay area and draw ties to both San Francisco and Oakland, however, their arena is located in downtown Oakland. When compared to the Raiders or the Athletics, the Warriors have not been quite up to par but have had great talent in the form of Shaun Mullins on their team in the 1990's.

The Oakland Raiders are probably the main threat to the Oakland Athletics as far as popularity in the city goes. The Raiders consistently sell out the Oakland Coliseum and, because of their black uniforms, the stadium is nicknamed the Black Hole. Past Raider greats include coach John Madden, players like Bo Jackson, Howie Long, and Jack Tatum.
