Ray Davis will succeed Nolan Ryan as the controlling owner of the Texas Rangers, according to Bud Selig.
Ryan said Oct. 17 he is resigning effective at the end of the month and will sell his ownership stake to Davis and chairman Bob Simpson.
Major League Baseball requires each team to have a designated control person.
"It hasn't been quite determined, but he will be the control person," Selig said before Game 2 of the World Series.
