The 1984 Oakland Athletics season was the 84th season for the Oakland Athletics franchise, all as members of the American League, and their 17th season in Oakland. The Athletics finished fourth in the American League West with a record of 77 wins and 85 losses. While the A's struggled for a third consecutive season, they staged a major coup by drafting future superstar Mark McGwire with the tenth overall pick of the 1984 Major League Baseball Draft. The season also marked the end of Rickey Henderson's first (of four) stints with the Athletics. His second stint would begin in 1989.
