OAKLAND MUST FIGHT FOR MLB EXPANSION AND PUSH SAN JOSE OUT OF THE WAY - ATLNews

Here we go again with Oakland getting picked on by a Bay Area neighbor. For the Warriors, it was San Francisco, and now for baseball territory, it's San Jose. From what I see, current San Jose mayor Matt Mahan and four former San Jose mayors — Sam Liccardo, Chuck Reed, Ron Gonzales and Tom McEnery — wrote a letter that called on Major League Baseball to allow for Santa Clara County to be released from being part of the territory of the San Francisco Giants. They are trying to get a new expansion team for themselves and could not care about Oakland. Meanwhile, Oakland Mayor Sheng Thao has put all of her effort on a failed attempt to stop the Nevada Legislature from approving funding for the A's Las Vegas Ballpark. Then, she took off for Vietnam. This is one time Oakland needs to fight and stop letting other cities push it around or out of the way. We have to immediately marshall all of the East Bay Mayors and make Major League Baseball an offer to put an expansion team in Oakland. We have to push San Jose out of the way. Just like we should have pushed Las Vegas and San Francisco out of the way. Stay tuned.
