Groundbreaking for A's new ballpark at Las Vegas site

LAS VEGAS (KGO) -- The A's broke ground on their future home field in Las Vegas Monday morning.

It's been four years in the making as a ceremony happened on the Strip at the site of what used to be the Tropicana Hotel.

The A's wrapped up their final season in Oakland in September.

They're currently playing home games in Sacramento until the Las Vegas stadium is ready.

Relocating the team from Oakland to Las Vegas has been a long process due to legal challenges and financing issues.

The ballpark is scheduled to open in 2028.
