A's not playing finale at Texas to support racial justice

The Oakland Athletics have decided not to play their series finale at Texas to show support for calls for racial justice. Oakland's decision not to play Thursday night came a day after three Major League Baseball games were postponed in response to the police shooting of a Black man in Wisconsin last weekend. ''We respect the decision by the Oakland A's players to postpone tonight's game,'' the Rangers said in a statement less than three hours before the scheduled first pitch.
