The Athletics laid out Thursday how the team plans to finance their $1.5 billion Las Vegas Strip ballpark, with team owner John Fisher’s family set to contribute up to $1 billion.

A’s executive Sandy Dean updated the Las Vegas Stadium Authority that they will present four letters to board at the scheduled Dec. 5 meeting that will display that they have the needed financing in place to construct the 33,000-fan-capacity stadium, on 9 acres of the 35-acre Tropicana site.
