Oakland A's calling Vegas home, only this weekend for now

The Oakland Athletics are calling Las Vegas home ... for this weekend. The A’s sent a split-squad of players to Las Vegas for two games against Cincinnati as part of “Big League Weekend.” The games are being played at Las Vegas Ballpark, the home of Oakland’s Triple-A affiliate, the Aviators. Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred said last month that while the door isn't being closed on Oakland, most of the focus of late by A's owner John Fischer has been on possible solutions in Las Vegas. It's the first time the A's have played in Las Vegas since 2020 just before the COVID-19 pandemic shut down baseball. So maybe there’s more buzz around it because we’re going right now and the process has seemed to be shifted a little bit,” Kotsay said.

Oakland fires police chief for alleged misconduct cover-up

SAN FRANCISCO — (AP) — The Oakland Police Department lost its seventh head of police in as many years Wednesday over the alleged cover-up of an officer’s misconduct in a scandal that threatens to extend two decades of federal oversight — the longest of any police department in the country. Thao placed Armstrong on paid administrative leave last month to review investigations by the department’s federal monitor that found the police chief responsible for gross dereliction of duty. Three of the officers were acquitted after two separate juries deadlocked on most of the charges. Armstrong, a native of Oakland, was appointed in 2021 with promises of enacting all the reforms within a year.

A's running out of time to find home in Oakland, Las Vegas

The Oakland Athletics have spent years trying to get a new stadium while watching Bay Area neighbors the Giants, Warriors, 49ers and Raiders successfully move into state-of-the-art venues, and now time is running short on their efforts. The A's lease at RingCentral Coliseum expires after the 2024 season, and though they might be forced to extend the terms, the club and Major League Baseball have deemed the stadium unsuitable for a professional franchise. The A's missed a major deadline in October to get a deal done in Oakland, and there has been little indication they will receive the kind of funding they want from Las Vegas.

Critically ill mountain lion cub rescued in California

OAKLAND, Calif. — (AP) — Wildlife officials rescued a critically ill mountain lion cub in Northern California and veterinarians named her “Holly” for the holiday season as they treat her in intensive care, the Oakland Zoo said Tuesday. A Santa Cruz resident noticed the cub on her property on Monday and alerted the state Department of Fish and Wildlife, the zoo said in a Twitter thread. Wildlife officials waited to see whether the cub's mother would return and took the animal to the zoo when she did not. The zoo's veterinarians estimate that the cub is three to four months old and critically ill. She was treated with fluids, vitamins and medication. “We are hopeful she continues to improve but are taking it very much day by day," the zoo said.

California reparations task force dives into what is owed

Conversations for how to determine payments are in the early stages, with task force members acknowledging they have more questions than answers. The task force must determine when each harm began and ended and who should be eligible for monetary compensation in those areas. Task force member Monica Montgomery Steppe said Wednesday they need to take more time addressing time frames, payment calculations and residency. Gavin Newsom signed legislation in 2020 creating the task force, giving hope to reparations advocates who had despaired that anything might happen at the federal level. California Secretary of State Shirley Weber, a former assemblywoman, authored the bill that created the state's task force, and the group began its work last year.

Economists hired by the task force are seeking guidance in five harms experienced by Black people: government taking of property, devaluation of Black-owned businesses, housing discrimination and homelessness, mass incarceration and over-policing, and health.
