J. Thomas Schieffer to run Dodgers
MIAMI -- Former Texas Rangers' president Tom Schieffer was appointed by baseball commissioner Bud Selig to oversee the Los Angeles Dodgers' business and financial operations, Major League Baseball announced on Monday.
Selig announced last Wednesday that due to increasing concerns about owner Frank McCourt's finances and ability to run the club, he would be appointing someone to oversee the club's finances in the near future.
Schieffer, younger brother of "Face the Nation" host Bob Schieffer, took over immediately. In seizing control of the franchise, MLB told the Dodgers that any expenditure of $5,000 or more would have to be approved.
