On tonight’s State of the Bay, we’ll ask: can Oakland keep the A’s? The major league baseball team owners hope to build a stadium on the waterfront, but some local employers worry it would harm the maritime economy at the port of Oakland. And what would happen to the current coliseum site?

Joining us to discuss will be:

• Dave Kaval, President of the Oakland A’s
• Mike Jacob, General Counsel for the Pacific Merchant Shipping Association
• Ray Bobbitt, Founder of the African-American Sports Entertainment Group

With a prerecorded statement by Oakland Councilmember Rebecca Kaplan.

Plus Grace Won talks with Tienlon Ho about her new cookbook, Mr. Jiu’s in Chinatown.

Tune in tonight at 6pm PT on KALW 91.7 FM in the San Francisco Bay Area or stream live.
