The Athletics will host a seven-game home stand in West Sacramento, starting with games against the Angels and then the Phillies. The West Sacramento Police Department advises that traffic congestion is expected, especially during afternoon games.

Caltrans District 3 is working on east- and westbound I-80 in Yolo County, causing increased congestion. The Traffic Unit and Real Time Information Center are monitoring traffic and managing game day conditions. Commuters and game-day attendees are encouraged to use the QuickMap app for route information to help navigate the traffic, as reported by the West Sacramento Police Department.

According to the West Sacramento Police Department on their Facebook page, drivers are advised to use alternate routes during sporting events to reduce traffic congestion and maintain efficient traffic flow before and after games. The department asks for patience and reminds everyone to "Please drive safely."
