Oakland A's play final game at the Coliseum: Check out the best photos

The Athletics played their final game at the Oakland Coliseum on Thursday afternoon, defeating the defending champion Texas Rangers, 3-2. 

The game marked the end of an era — after 57 seasons in Oakland that saw the A's make 21 playoff appearances, win six pennants and four World Series championships, the team is bound for Sacramento and then, eventually, Las Vegas. 

Understandably, Thursday's game produced a wide gamut of emotions. Imagn Images and Getty Images photographers were there to capture it all.
