Nevada lawmakers on Tuesday granted the A’s a crucial win in their dreams of a state-of-the-art, $1.5 billion Las Vegas ballpark, part of a whirlwind day for Oakland’s last major sports franchise.

The Nevada state Senate voted 13-8 to approve up to $380 million in public money for a stadium on the Vegas strip, setting up a vote in the Assembly that could seal the deal after the team at the 11th hour promised to provide new community benefits.
