The 2017 Oakland Athletics season was the 50th for the Oakland Athletics franchise in Oakland, as well as the 117th in club history. The A's began the season on April 3 at home against Los Angeles Angels and finished the season at the Texas Rangers on October 1. They finished the season in last place in the American League West and did not make the playoffs for the third consecutive season, but did finish the season on a strong note with a winning record in September.
For the first time in several years, the Coliseum featured the entire baseball configuration. The tarp covering much of the baseball seating was removed, although it remained on Mt. Davis as that section is football-only.
