The stadium is set to become the home for USL Championship League soccer team Oakland Roots starting in 2025. In a letter addressed to the fans ahead of the final home series, A’s owner John Fisher reflected on the team’s legacy in Oakland. “The A’s are part of the fabric of Oakland, the East Bay, and the entire Bay Area,” Fisher wrote. Countless dedicated staff members and Oakland Coliseum employees have poured their hearts into this team, and their efforts have meant so much to our community. The Oakland Coliseum sits in third place for the most no-hitters thrown (12), with the last being a perfect game by the New York Yankees’ Domingo German in 2023.

☆ Cine sunt liderii care se luptă pentru funcţia de premier. Pe cine propune PSD

Scenariul optimist: PNL va atinge 35% pe fondul mobilizării primarilor şi a luptei la baionetă cu PSD, caz în care premierul desemnat de Klaus Iohannis va fi cu siguranţă tot Ludovic Orban. ”Ludovic Orban rămâne prima opţiune pentru funcţia de premier”, a răspus şeful statul la o conferinţă de presă, întrebat de Adevărul despre viitorul prim-ministru. Pentru a întări poziţia PNL în viitoarea guvernare, preşedintele Iohannis va desemna un alt liberal pentru formarea Guvernului. În primul rând, Marcel Ciolacu e conştient că PSD cu greu va putea strânge o majoritate parlamentară. De altfel, fostul premier PSD Victor Ponta este propunerea noului partid pentru Palatul Victoria.
