[edit] Biographical Information
Jeffrey Loria owned the Oklahoma City 89ers from 1989 to 1993. He lost out on a bid for the Baltimore Orioles in 1994, but bought a 24 percent stake in the Montreal Expos in December, 1999. He eventually ended up with 94 percent of the team. In 2002, he sold the Expos to the other Major League Baseball Owners as part of a deal to purchase the Florida Marlins from John Henry for $158.5 million.
