Could Oakland Athletics baseball move to San Jose? The latest development occurred on Monday when Howard Mintz of the San Jose Mercury News reported that the United States Supreme Court is expected to make a decision on whether or not to hear City of San Jose v. Commissioner of Baseball as soon as later this week.
Previously, the city of San Jose had lost its suit against the big leagues when the 9th Circuit ruled that there was too much precedent in order to overturn Major League Baseball’s antitrust exemption that it has enjoyed since 1921.
