The Athletics officially are on the move after the 2024 MLB season.

Sutter Health Park in West Sacramento will be the team's new home for the next three seasons until their proposed Las Vegas ballpark is projected to open for the 2028 season.

With the A's officially uprooting from Oakland and departing for Sacramento -- and eventually Las Vegas -- what will they be called?

Team president Dave Kaval told FOX40's Sean Cunningham after the team's press conference on Thursday in Sacramento that the A's will not have a city affiliation attached to them while playing at their temporary home for the next three seasons.

The team currently, and soon to be formerly known, as the Oakland Athletics will just be called the Athletics for the next three seasons.

And that likely will change again in four years if the team opens its new ballpark in 2028.
