kris sanchez joins us. this is a crucial day in this long ongoing saga. >> it is. you've heard the term inside baseball. that's good description of the court proceeding that's going to happen today. and to continue the analogy. this could be the hail mary, asking a federal appeal's court to overturn a federal judge's decision. that decision came in october when the judge ruled bob selig did not violate antitrust laws by barring the move to san jose over what it considers san francisco giant easter tomorrow rights over the south bay. in case you haven't been following this case, a's owner lou wolf wants a new stadium. san jose wants to build one. mlb says they cannot move south because of the territorial right that the giant's hold. attorneys say that the rules protecting mlb are outdated and they will make those arguments this morning. we are going to catch up with them auto9:30 this morning as they head into the courtroom. some think this whole thing could end up before the supreme court. if that does, what happens in this case before the appeal's court could impa
