His mother, Marie Selig fell and broke her hip during the team's first World Series game in 1982, leading to a 10-0 victory over the Cardinals. Selig and his investors were awarded the team by bankruptcy referee Sidney C. Volinn a week before opening day. He and his group bid $10.8 million to purchase the franchise, which never returned under his ownership. Current owner Mark Attanasio bought the team from the Selig family in 2005. SelIG was elected to the baseball Hall of Fame in 2017 and teaches at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He often pushes for a salary cap and management proposals, which have led to potential lockout.
