LOS ANGELES The Oakland Athletics Major League Baseball team has signed McCann-Erickson for ad chores, the client has confirmed.

The Interpublic Group shop, which landed the $2 million A’s assignment without review, will handle creative and media. (McCann also handles $20 million in ad chores for MLB.)

The A’s account had been with Omnicom Group’s Goodby, Silverstein & Partners in San Francisco for the past year. Last fall, Goodby bested WPP Group’s J. Walter Thompson in the final round of a review to win the business.
