San Francisco Intervenes in Oakland A’s Battle

San Francisco City Attorney Dennis Herrera hinted yesterday that he might file suit to stop the Oakland A’s planned move to San Jose, according to the Chron and the Mercury News. In a letter to Major League Baseball Commissioner Bud Selig, Herrera argued that an A’s move would harm the San Francisco Giants financially, and thus would harm the City of San Francisco. The letter and apparent lawsuit threat are sure to further complicate the A’s plans.
