The
Athletics started in Philly in 1901
and have enjoyed success in nearly every decade
since their founding. Connie
Mack, the A's manager from 1901 to 1950 won 5 World
Series and 4 American League titles despite losing star
player after star player.
In the 1970s, when they began winning the World
Series every year in Oakland , their free-wheeling
clubhouse earned the name "Swingin' A's." |
