Was really curious to see if they’d drop Oakland from the A’s name in a game from almost 25 years ago. They absolutely did. Every other team has a city attached to their name. Hell, even the Expos are still there. The Angels are the Anaheim Angels, the Rays are the Devil Rays still, the Marlins are the Florida Marlins, and the Astros are in the NL. All that stuff from 2001 is still there. But Oakland? Nah fuck em. MLB really is that petty. The only other modernized team name is the Guardians.

  1. Crazy they modified a team from 2001, especially since they kept the Anaheim Angels.

    I’d definitely want to use a mod or cheat engine to change it back

  2. the North Korean propaganda will continue indefinitely I guess

    At least they have the A’s stadium in game already

  3. Wow they really can’t stand us can they? A game from 24 years ago, don’t even think about mentioning Oakland… What did we ever do to deserve such hostile treatment besides wanting to keep our team of 50 plus years???

  4. From what i heard the announcer still says Oakland when you select them in-game. I can’t personally confirm this as I haven’t bought the game yet.
