We might not have many alums playing MLB, but we have one running it (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rob_Manfred).

So, a Cornell alum is either commissioner or co-commissioner of the NHL, NBA, and now MLB.  Just need the NFL...

The NBA doesn't have "co-commissioners";  Silver is superior to Tatum.

Nevertheless, interesting to see so many Cornellians ascending the ranks of pro sports.
