7:34Now PlayingAfter decades in Oakland, the A's are moving to Las Vegas, where a promised stadium of gigantic proportions awaits. The decision has not only been devastating for the city of Oakland and its many baseball fans, but also carries wider implications that extend beyond the MLB to matters of public finance. After all, why should cities keep shelling out billions in taxpayer money for sports facilities while schools and hospitals close? Edge of Sports host Dave Zirin zeroes in on the controversial new Vegas stadium, taking aim in particular at MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred, the "Gordon Gecko" of baseball.
